Takin' Care of Business

I've been gettin' some real nice awards here for awhile and I've been stickin' 'em back in a folder. Now seems like a good time to dig 'em out and acknowledge the nice folks who thoughtfully passed them on to me.

First of all I got this very special Humane Award from Andrea at All God's Creatures. http://andrealuvsallgodscreatures.blogspot.com/2009/10/miracles-at-dog-therapy.html. She probably meant it was for Mom 'cuz she obviously has a whole lot of humane in her to put up with my shenanigans. Today is a great day to run over and read the wonderful post about how her and her dogs' therapy work had an amazing impact on a man who hadn't talked in 3 years.

Next up is from Susan of http://oz-girl.blogspot.com/2009/10/wordless-wednesday.html. It is the Queen of all Things Award. I personally have wanted to crown Mom on more than one occasion so I will be more than glad to let her have this one too. Thanks for thinkin' of us Susan and hugs to your Oz Land pack.

Ok- 2 down and 2 to go.
This next one is a little more involved. It is the Over the Top Award from Andrea again on her other blog: http://arise2write.blogspot.com/2009/10/miracles.html. Now you're talkin' my language 'cuz I don't like to do anything half-you know what. It's all or nuthin' with me. This award asks a bunch of questions and you are only allowed a one word answer.

Thanks to one and all for passin' these along-they are very much appreciated. And as with most awards they are meant to be passed on, but I refuse to narrow it down to just a few of my bloggin' buddies. Feel free to grab one or all of them if you like. You and your comments are very special to me and I would not want to let anyone out in the cold.

Well, now that I've clapped the dust off my paws and taken care of that piece of business, it's time to decorate the porch for Halloween.

And speakin' of cold, be careful that Jack Frost doesn't nip at your pumpkin.

Have a glowin' weekend.
