Extra! Extra! Read All About It!!!

How is it that I can receive and award, and realize that I fail at life, in one fail swoop?  Because I'm me, that's how! 

My pal CJ gave me this award a few days ago, and I decided to save it as a post to schedule for when I'm gone.  Without further ado, I give you...
Thank you, thank you very much...

So, why do I realize I fail at life?  Well, I remembered that I had received one like this BEFORE and some of the fun facts about me are still floating around waiting to be explained. 
Have no fear!  I will remedy that VERY quickly, and schedule those posts as well, so you are no longer pacing the floor in angst and frustration waiting to find out the juicy details. 
I'll pause for the applause...
So, back to business.
I'm supposed to list 7 things about myself, and then pass the award on.  I think I'll list the things about myself in true CJ fashion...
  1. I have a 3 1/2 year old purebred golden retriever.
  2. Her name is Sadie. (I named her before Oprah got hers JSYK)
  3. Roon and I groomed her for the first time last night.
  4. She doesn't look half bad.
  5. Except for the bald spot.
  6. Her great grandfather was on the Gravy Train commercials.
  7. That's about the closest I can get to having a celebrity in my family...
Not real sure how many people I'm supposed to pass this on to.  So, I'll pass it on to 2 people.  I think I've given the same people awards so many times, they'll stop thinking it's sincere.  So...

Evelyn at Hanging By a Silver Lining- Because she's seriously awesome!
and
Blueviolet at a nut in a nutshell- Because we're new friends, and even though she has about a kazillion followers, she still manages to find time for me!  (by the way...she has about 40 zillion giveaways going on right now, which just thinking about it, makes my head spin, but you should check her out!  If you haven't already, that is!)

That's all I got for now.  I'm off to write up some stories now, that might make you all think less of me...

Congrats! I'm a loser & have never acknowledged the couple of awards i've gotten. I soooo appreciate them, I just am not really sure what to do. Ehhhh I'm sure I am forgiven. Hmmm maybe no one even noticed???
