 I AM SO HONORED TO BE ' On the Side ' .....

 A BIG THANKS TO IFB AND ALL THE BLOG BUDDIES WHO ENCOURAGED ME TO DO THIS...
I NEVER 'WIN' STUFF, ( Probably because I don't play ), AND IF YA CAN'T TOOT YOUR OWN HORN EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE, WHO WILL ? 
( Probably the wonderful people who "get" and love me ...)
I REALLY NEEDED THIS BOOST ( For many reasons ....)


This is the first "public" recognition of my blog and though the art of blogging, the friendships and the way I've proven to myself that I really can stick to something, 
even when it starts to get a bit tough to do,  .....   It made my day :) ~ 
That the fruit of my labor was recognized was an awesome surprise! 
Maybe that's a bit petty,( art for art's sake and all that ) - I don't know ...... 
I just know it made me feel good :)

Hey !

MAYBE THEY'LL MAKE A STATUE ? 

OR MAYBE I'LL GET A TATTOO ???

climbing to the top .... enjoying the view .....

(no that's not me .....)

and what's up with all the boobs ? ....

Hmmmm.....

OK, I'll stop now ;)

sorry, guys, but I am really stoked ;)

xXx
