Blog Awards & Bloggy Love

I was awarded three bloggy awards today. I am so very excited. It is fun to know that people actually enjoy my mindless rambling..

I have had a blog for as long as I can remember. It started many years ago with an old school expage. Then on to xanga. Then to myspace. And now here I am... I really enjoy browsing through blogs and reading about every ones daily lives. It is so funny how connected you feel to people who you don't even know.. I am at a weird point in my life. Not, that I feel weird about it's just..Hmm, let me explain.

I am 32, that will change October 10th (shameless birthday plug lol). I am not married and I don't have children. It's not that I don't want all those things. It just hasn't happened for me yet and I am fine with that. I think I am bothered by it less than the people around me (my mom). I have 2 close friends that aren't married but other than that they are all married with kids. At my church, all the groups are split up in married with kids and singles. I go to the married with kids group because when my bff and I looked at the sign up sheet for the singles group we chickened out. 17 guys but no women were signed up. Although, I have never really had a problem with self confidence.. I just couldn't write my name down and join 17 men at a small group. Talk about uncomfortable.. I know I know.. The one could be in that group.. but I just couldn't do it..lol.

Oh, my. I have said all of that to just say this.. I feel so welcome here. I have only written 20 something post at blogger and I feel like I have already made tons of blogging buddies.

*sing songy* I think I am gonna like it here... here amongst the newlyweds, the mothers, the crafters, the ladies who write for all the world to see. I think I fit in just perfect. I like that we all come from different walks of life but we find that we all have a common interest in writing about our daily lives.. either that or we are all just nosy skipping from one blog to another to see what is going on in the lives of strangers.

Okay, Okay. On to the awards. The One Sweet Blog was presented to me by: Solei She is a real sweet heart. She just recently got a new blog makeover. She is also an outstanding citizen in her community. Take a look at what her and her girl scout troop did. It is impressive. Thank you so much for thinking of me when passing out this award. I really appreciate it.

I would like to present the award to the following ladies:
