Thanks everyone for the kind comments ~ and some awards!!

Thanks everyone for the kind comments that you left about my Mom. She is doing ok, really. And it makes her smile when I tell her how many people are sending their thoughts and prayers. She'd kill me if she knew I said anything, but she is 75 and I just worry about her. She is pretty much all the family I have left. I have cousins, of which only a few I've met. And most of them are all over the states. But she's all I've got and I plan to keep her as long as I can Ü

And it's amazing. How many of you actually read blogs? I think a lot that I write and I am just doing it for my own satisfaction, but it seems that a lot of you actually read what I have to say. I'm that way. When I look at peoples blogs, I actually read what they have to say. I mean, I am taking time to go to their blog to look at it, and they are taking time to keep it up ~ so why not read it. I don't pop in just to look at their cards - I want to read it. But then I am a reader anyway. It makes me feel like I am getting to know the person. Am I rambling? Sorry....

Enough. I thought that I'd show you some awards that I received...

These awards were given to me by Liv. How sweet of her!

The first thing to do is to mention 5 things I'm addicted to ~ oh, that's hard (only 5):

1. Stamping. I MUST do something every day or I get cranky Ü
2. Pepsi. Actually Cherry Pepsi. That's another daily habit that I've HAVE to kick. It's just so hard....
3. The computer. But if I wasn't I would not have so many friends ;-)
4. My hunter's socks. My hubby bought me some hunters socks for Christmas and I am so addicted to them. I wear them all the time! I love them, they are so comfy....
5. Cookies. I'm a lover of cookies. As Betty ~ every time she's here I've got warm cookies for her...

Now the hard part. To pick out 5 people to give these to. That's hard because I love everyones blogs. There is a little bit of something everywhere that keeps me coming back.

1. Barb - Her cards are always so pretty. There is quite a few of her cards that I've got saved, and will not share :-)
2. Nicola - One gal who always puts a smile on my face with her kind comments.
3. Julie - One special gal - who knows what life is like with a teenage daughter.
4. Gabby - Because she helped me into the world of blogging! And because she ROCKS!
5. Toni - Who introduced me into the wonderful world of TAC!

Now I'm off to do something, even if it's not right!

Hugs,
Joani
