“This blog invests and believes in ‘proximity’ [meaning that blogging makes us 'close' - being close through proxy].”
As you all probably know by now...I do love getting awards (which actually should disqualify me from
receiving it, but it's mine now and I'm not giving it back)!
This to me, is the most wonderful award of all...because it came from someone very special, and because of it's
significance.
Proximidade, created by Dawn at Twisted Sister, was passed on to me, by
Jientje at:
Heaven Is In Belgium.
The
parameters for
receiving this award are...
A blog that invests and believes in proximity- nearness in space, time and relationships. Nominated bloggers are exceedingly charming, they aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes for self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. This blog award should be sent to another eight bloggers and they, in turn, should forward it to eight of their favorites. You should include the text for Proximidade in your blog announcement. And please note that all awards and tags are optional ,,,Twisted SisterJientje, I thank you from the bottom om my heart, for this beautiful award.
I would like to pass it on to the following bloggers, because I truly feel that their blogs are
Proximidade!
I realize that I've only listed seven, but right now...these are the blogs that tug on my heart strings. There are many others that I read and enjoy. Some of them are more private in nature, others tend to be "light and airy". Besides...this leaves me with the chance of doing another post, and adding more blogs to pass this award on to! I'm even working on creating some awards that are specifically for some of these "other bloggers"...Awards that capture their true nature!
Speaking of blogs...some days I find myself feeling tied down to my blogging. Other days, I can't wait to start typing. Do I have Spring Fever? Have I just "run out of fodder"? I can't wait to see what others have written, but after reading their posts, I often feel that my contributions are somewhat lacking in...I don't know what...Interest? Creativity? Inspiration? I think that I must be in a funk. Maybe it's because my daughter is leaving in a couple of days...and I will really miss her. I think too, that my leg is weighing me down. I'm better, but still lack the ability to do the things that have been a part of my days for most of my adult life. I enjoy cleaning and cooking and crafting. I want to mop the floors so badly, and I long to go upstairs and get my hands on some photo's... to start scrapbooking, and making ornament for next Christmas! AND I miss my friends. Both here and back in Florida.
Oh well...this too shall pass.
I'm going to enjoy the next two days with Suzanne, and then try to get myself back into a schedule that I can deal with. Maybe come up with some regular theme days for my blogging...doing some light cleaning. Maybe try to negotiate the stairs (with supervision), so that I can work on some crafts. Writing to my grand children...and getting S to take me on some Photo Rides.
Love- Peace - and I'm off to the kitchen for breakfast.
Here he is again...doesn't he look angelic?
And look at this smile...NOBODY can convince me that it's just gas.
Can you see the resemblance? They even have the exact some expression on their faces!
