And the Award Goes to...

I almost forgot! Last week, Julie Pippert gave me this lovely button, and I wanted to pass it on to some of my dear readers. I can't give it back to you, Julie, but I can throw you a big smooch!
Chanda at Trapped Under Something Heavy, because she is always there for me, even offline.

Flutter at, well, Flutter, for being not only a loyal reader and commenter, but such an inspiration to me. If I'm hitting the wall, I go read her first!

Cynthia at The Fairies Nest, because she is always there for me and very supportive, and considering that we were hard-wired to be super-critical, that's pretty damn awesome.Thanks Cin!

Jodi at Slow Panic, for inspiring a really great post about getting your kids to read.

Maggie at Okay, Fine Dammit, for leaving me one of the best comments ever! I was compelled to sing like Snow White for the rest of the day, and the animals still didn't do the damn housework!

Liv at Madness! Madness I Say, for being such a sympathetic and loyal commenter. Now if there was just a button for a good night's sleep.

Hele at Truth Cycles, for being a kindred spirit in her love of the natural world, and her incredible pictures that take me away like Calgon never could.

Professor J at Who Says I Want to Fit In, because she always makes me think, and anyone who is a fan of David Sedaris is practically like family!

I love and appreciate all my readers, and would give the smooch of approval to everyone, but I think Julie might have beat me to it with some of you!

Thanks so much to all of you who read and comment here; it makes me feel like I might even be "getting the hang of this shit", as they say in Thelma and Louise.
