My cyber mantle is filling up with all these awards!

So, Girly Stuff bestowed two awards on to me this week! She said something about me deserving these awards because I have been quiet over here on my blog! I have had reason though, I have been busy! I do have a lot to blog about lately, but I haven't made the time! So come back later to see what I have been up too! Anyway. . .

Here are the rules: These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbon of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award.

The Lemonade Stand Award is presented to people with a good attitude or sense of gratitude. However, it comes with a few rules. Recipients are asked to post the award on your blog, nominate 10 other blogs and link to them. Send some love back to the person who bestowed the award on you by telling them who you gave it to you and posting a link to their site. Let your nominees know that they've received the award.

So, just like my lovely Girly Stuff, I am rolling both awards into one post so I can save on time and get to posting what has been going in my prissy world lately!

My Bog Is Faboulous. . . Well, That's What Girly Stuff Said. . .

Once again Girly Stuff gave me an award! She just loves me! Who doesn't?

DON'T answer that! :0

So, she tells me that there are some stipulations to holding this honor. I must list 5 addictions and then pass the award on to 5 blogs I love. Here we go. . .

1. I am addicted to discount retailers like Ross and Marshall's. My kids are in Mother's Day Out on Tuesdays and Thursday. I have to limit myself to going to those stores on those days only. Usually one on Tuesday and the other on Thursday. I usually go for no particular reason expect to see what was new since I was last in.

I love to hunt for hidden treasures there during my kid free time!

2. I am addicted to estate sales for the same reasons I love discount retailers. I love the hunt for treasures. I go to those usually only on Thursdays.

3. I am addicted to my iphone and facebook. I think this will pass though. . . it's still new to me.

4. I am addicted to organization. . . .if it can be purged, merged, rearranged, I am on it! I go to someones house and open a cabinet or closet and my mind instantly sees what needs to be done to organize it and make it better. . . .I draw the line there though, don't worry. . . .I don't touch any of it. . . . I just think about fixing it for my friends. . . . I just stick to

organizing my own stuff :)

5. I am ashamed to say it, but I am addicted to Sex And The City reruns at night. . . . never saw it when it was on the first time around, now I love it!

Well, time to pass the award on . . . and the winners are. . . .
