I nearly fell off of my chair recently when I received this lovely and thoughtful award from The Roc Chronicles. I didn’t even know she knew who I was! *blush* I confess, I don’t really feel like I deserve it right now as I’ve been mired in a funk of emotional slime that would make even the tartest of lemons seem like candy.
I’ll address all of that angst in a separate post —soon. I promise! For now, I’m going to sit back with my lemonade (and cookies!) and be grateful for the knowledge that things will get better. In the spirit of making the best and having a good attitude and all that, here’s how this thing works:
The Lemonade Award is bestowed upon those who have gratitude and/or a great attitude.
Put the lemonade logo on your blog or in your post.
Nominate at least ten blogs with great attitude or gratitude.
Link the nominees within your post.
Let the nominees know they have received the award by commenting on their blog.
Share the love and link to the person from whom you received this award.
I confess, I always struggle with these nominations. I can’t choose ten because each blogger I follow has a great attitude; if they didn’t I wouldn’t bother following them. I don’t mean to imply that everyone is a Pollyana —far from it! But each writer shares their wisdom and insights, their struggles and their joys in equal measure.
And you, yes you sitting there reading this right now. Clearly, you like what I have to say so you must be a kindred spirit, right? Consider yourself nominated!
Congrats! And well-deserved.
Too bad you are feeling down, but congrats on the award.
Congratulations! And hugs to you. For this and everything else.
Lol – I’d like to thank the academy ,,,
Well deserved, my sweet. Very well deserved.
Congrats on the award…part of the fun is learning about different blogs, maybe you can list some for the rest of us to checkout???
I nominate you for a big hug & an even bigger glass of red. Hang in there and update us when you can.
love, R
Congrats and enjoy your lemonade!
Thanks, everyone.
And, Corrie, thank you for the reminder that I don’t have my blogroll on this site! Oops. (I had one on my old site but never transferred it over; I see some blog maintenance in my future.) I’ll try to include that asap. 
For the record, you’re far too bubbly to call yourself “sourpuss.”
You are wonderful and totally deserve this award AND the ones RHM nominated you for. I up the ante to an entire bottle of wine.
In that case, pixiemama… *hic* I accept.
Too funny! Shea’s Mom awarded me the same award, and I totally skated on passing it as well. ‘Cuz I just.can’t.handle.it right now.
I’ll join you in a vodka lemonade!
Doesn’t everyone know who you are?
I really like your “emotional slime” phrasing. I’ve been there. Hope you’re hanging in there.
LOL, Stimey! I don’t think I’ve acheived your degree of notoriety yet. Er, um, I mean widespread acclaim!
I do hope your drink helped with your relaxing.
Hope you have a good weekend.
