Thank you … I’m honored

My blog has been honored with the following awards. Thank you as it is indeed a compliment when fellow community members bestow these kind thoughts upon The Printed Page. One of the hardest things for me to do is accept that others find my thoughts worthy but I accept the accolades in the spirit they were given.

As a shy person accepting compliments can be uncomfortable, bestowing them is just as difficult. I find myself turning into an award show winner who gets the deer-in-headlights-look. I start fumbling around and get all sorts of tongue-tied and twisted up.

So in an effort not the forget anyone nor play favorites, or step all over myself with my addled brain I’m going to cheat a bit where the guideline part comes into play. To all the wonderful, entertaining, interesting, intriguing, enticing blogs that I come across each and every week and the ones yet to be discovered – Congratulations!! These awards for are you.
