Well, I’ve paid the bills, learned my kids a thing or two in school, did the housework for today, worked out, did my bible study AND plucked my eyebrows, so, there is only one thing left to do…
HAND OUT SOME AWARDS YA’LL!
I have received three peer awards that I have been holding onto for some time, which means I need to display them and THANK the Bloggers who gave them to me, and I have something of my own to hand out…
So here they are, three I have received, thanks to Stacy of Stacy’s Random Thoughts, Joan of The Retirement Chronicles, and Beth of This Crazy Thing Called Motherhood:

And now, I have another award I want to give out, and once you are awarded, you are allowed to give out to others.
This is my very own, original “You Spice Up My Life” award. The rules here are to give this to 5 Spicy Bloggers who add that "special something" to your day whilst in the act of blog perusal, and give them your own personal spicy name that they can display with this fantastic award...that I made...all on my own... *beaming*. I give this award to these 5 Bloggers (more to come later) and I officially declare that-
Hey Lola: you are Allegedly Pregnant and Hilariously Chaotic Spice
WendiWinn: you are Bacon Spam Friend Cullinary EXpert Spice
Kearsie at Sounds Like Tomatoes: you are Mrs. *SWOON* Edward Cullen HulaHoop Spice
Joan: You are Fine Wine and Fancy Lingerie Spice, and
Beth: You are Purple Yoda Awesome Master Spice
And as always, don’t feel obligated to pass any of these on, or display them. Just know you all light up my life.
Peace Out.

WOO HOO!!! I am feeling the love!! Thanks so much for all the blogger love! I shall proudly rub my awards in my readers face....err, I mean I will display them with the proper amount of restraint and self-control. Yeah that's it...
Maybe...
;)
Seriously, thank you!
I LOVE my spice girl name, by the way! lol
*weep* You mean I have TWO awards? *wipes tears* I am so touched! *wipes snot dripping from nose* I mean, I have never felt such bloggy love. *wipes snotty hands on pants* I can't wait to display these! *shakes Kim's hands* I lurve you! *watch Kim grab Clorox and wash hands*
How freakin' cool to be spiced and given a name!!
(I am eternally grateful that I wasn't named Fine Bacon Spam and Sexy Cullinary Spice. Whew. I know it must have been close.....so I will take the Fine Wine and Sexy Lingerie Spice title and wear it with pride! (Especially the wine, I tend to spill). Now, with a bestowed name like THAT I am sure to get all the pervert readers and Followers. Woo Hoo! (I'll take more Followers, what the heck!!) ha
Thanks...you light up my life too...your humor starts out my mornings with delight!
The Retirement Chronicles
OH my goodness you are on fire!!! congrats
YOU are my new best friend! But in a cool, deckster kind of way, not a creepy stalkerish kind of way. Unless you like that.
But anywaaaay.....thanks for the Fan Award! So very fun and much appreciated! This deserves a shoutout on the blog - check it out!
And one heck of an awesome contributor to Sited and Blogged too!

Come on, don't leave Yoda in the dark here!!
