Happy Second Anniversary to Happily Retired Gal

To Ginny from Me.

Awards from James of Newton Area Photo

I have been irregular with my blogging due to some unforeseen commitments. Today I tried to sneak in to find that I received these surprised Awards from James of Newton Area Photo.

If only I can give my playful kittens an Award, that would be good. I mean, they are adorable but they won't leave me alone now. They must be bored.

Thank you very much James. I am still busy at the moment, I'll take my time to spread these around to cheer up some of our fellow bloggers.




In restrospect, James got these two cute Awards from his good friend Thom. I'll add Thom's link later because the downloading is playing up.

There are blogs that I find amusing and entertaining. So this Award will be passed to:

* Al

* Gattina

* Pam

A new award I picked up from VK-Mahal Kaayo.

VK has a very interesting blog. She posts lots of pictures from Germany with interesting stories to go by. Very amusing and entertaining lady. I'll never get bored by her antics.

Nemo's Award from Lois and Pam

Fostering Friendship Through Blogging

Neno Award: Story

The Neno Award is given to those who love blogging, love to encourage friendships through blogging, and who help others seek the reasons why we all love blogging.

Lois of Tallahassee Daily Photo has passed down this cute award to me. Lois' photographic blog is always up to date with daily fresh pictures of different interesting subjects. A big Thank You to you Lois.

Here are the rules:

• Upload the image in your post

• Mention the person who gave you the award with his/her blog link

• Nominate 5 blogs of choice with blog name and link

• Leave comment on the recipients' posts to let them know

The following nominees to receive this blog are:

• Regina of DAILY LIVING

• DB of Vagabond Journeys

• Rikkij of One Big Love

• Rosidah of Music of My Life

• Silver of REFLECTIONS

These friends are among the many who inspire me to keep going with my blogging. In the beginning, I thought my blogging was just my outlet for loneliness when there's nothing else to do. So I tried playing charade in the blogworld. That has changed after getting some encouragement from them through their earnest comment.

To show my appreciation, I therefore confer to them this Neno Award as originated from Cheryl of NOSTALGIA:Today and Yesterday.

Grateful thanks to you Lois.

Another kind blog host also conferred me this Award in the person of Pam who owns Southern Journeys, and posted her notice in my Appreciation Award blog. So sweet of you Ma'am. Thank You very much.:)

Cheers!

Sisterhood Award From Rosidah

My friend Rosidah bestowed this Sisterhood Award to me a long time ago. I decided to move it here to give way to all the Awards I am getting surprisingly. Surprised, humbled and honoured.

This blog is made as a token of my appreciation to You my dear Friend who showed the world the beautiful side of Humanity, Friendship and Fellowship in harmony.



You will love what Rosidah has to say about awarding other fellow bloggers. I am re-posting this here in BOLD QUOTE: Mind Rosidah?

"Now, for passing on this award. According to the rules, whoever has been nominated must now nominate 10 bloggers they feel deserves the Humane Award. I think some of you know by now, that I'm always having a hard time to choose. There are so many kindhearted Bloggers in this Blogosphere!

If you regularly take part on my blog and I am a visitor of your blog, then this award is dedicated to you from the bottom of my heart. I would love you to accept my deeply appreciation by grabbing this button and place it on your blog. Still there are no strings attached, I know that some of you might not be too fancy about buttons. The most important part is that you know I am very thankful to you and look forward to our growing friendships through the blog world."

Golden Blog Award

Early today, I decided to check my blogs...and have been gobsmacked to find Silver's Bella Sinclair Award passed on to me and few other fellow bloggers.


I don't know what made me deserve to be conferred with this Award. But I am truly honoured and humbled by such warm and sweet token from this very sweet Lady named Silver.

I will certainly circulate this Award to whom it is due. Actually, there are many countless of them out there. It's nice to create this fantastic kind of encouragement.

Thank you
