I feel like I have cheated you, my lovely readers this week. I am so swamped with VBS and preparations for starting our new school year soon, that I haven't had time to sit down and write a "real" post. I promise I will do that this week. Forgive me?
In the meantime, I got my first awards for bloggy goodness, and really, when it rains it pours! I have never gotten an award before try to contain your incredulity, but, teh awesome genius here couldn't stay unrecognized, it was only a matter of time I ended up with two this week. So, yay, me!
First is the Brilliante Weblog Award given by hellokittiemama.
I have the privilege of passing the award on to Don't Miss blogs. Here they are, in no particular order. I love you all, I swear!
- Momma's Tantrum- read about Mrs. T, Mr. T and Bacon. Funny, irreverent and raw. She is powered by coffee and a potty mouth and is just a lot of fun.
- califmom- my good friend from Blogher, she and I were livin' the Dream. Her blog is an amalgamation of family, photo and an occasional Bad Word. Go and meet the "Rosa Parks of Invisible Disabilities. Tell this woman to sit in the back of the bus, I dare ya!
- The Bloggess- Yeah, I know, she doesn't need my piddly-ass award, but I give credit where credit is due. I love her writing, it makes me choke on my Pepsi, and shoot it out of my nose. And she throws great bathroom parties. So, she gets an award. Deal with it
- Loralees Looney Tunes- she has a ton of recognition too, but I just love her writing and she is the sweetest thing, ever. Except when her husband forgets her anniversary. Or she doesn't get her Diet Coke... go read her!
- Backpacking Dad- So he can't make pancakes Yes, I do seem to be obsessed over that fact, shut up but he is articulate, stands up for right, and carries his daughter in a backpack. Plus, he's fun.
- To Think Is To Create- This is one busy lady! She just launched a new design venture with some friends (well, actually the only thing new is the name and the blog, but we still call it "new") She writes about autism, and is an advocate for eco-living, as she calls it. She throws in the snark for good measure.

T, who likes bling
16 sent chocolate:
Holy Schnikies! I am honored out of my pants. Okay, I wasn't wearing actual pants at this hour, but jammies count, right? Wow. Hold me. I might need to pour myself some pomegranate juice to celebrate. If a shot of vodka accidentally makes its way in, I'll pretend not to notice. That was my way of saying "thank you." (in case you couldn't tell)
I was going to tell you that you made my whole morning but now Califomom is out of her pants and I'm distracted.
PS. I love all of the bloggers you chose. Fabulous list.
Look at all the lovely linky love :)
Great picks, now I must go read them!
On another note, I FINALLY did the meme. Took me long enough, I know!
Congratulations on your bling!
Shash
