Hoy! Yes, ladies and gentlemen, the accolades just keep on coming. I was nominated for the Liebster Blog Award by Chance of Sun, which I appreciate and am thankful for. She is an Arizona girl recently transplanted to Germany (I am bitterly jealous – don’t tell her). She’s currently enjoying Karnival, the German equivalent of the celebration in Rio De Janeiro. Instead of sexy, sultry Sambas, they likely engage in painful, problematic Polkas, but there’s beer drinking involved, so no one notices the difference. Apparently this award is supposedly limited to bloggers with less than two hundred followers, so at present I am marginally overqualified. Too bad! I’m sure I’ll either offend, bore or disappoint some of my more recent followers soon and therefore requalify, so I’m just being proactive.
There is a protocol that must be followed, which explains why it’s taken me so long to accept the nomination. I must a) Thank the nominator (done), 2) Link back to them (check), c) copy and paste the award logo (yes, yes, I know that), 4) I forget, and f, no wait, e) mention five other bloggers for the award. I resent this part, because if everyone does it, we’ll all be nominated eventually, won’t we? Whatever; here’s five I always read, though there are many others deserving of your time:
Joyce De Vivre – Joyce is a young lady living in the Phillipines; she has a heart for the Lord, and I always feel better about the world after I’ve visited.
Deidra Alexander – She’s very funny and very popular. I’ve always been impressed how she responds to all who comment (it’s most gratifying).
The Warrioress – She is very insightful in her approach to the Bible and His teachings and is very faithful. I actually feel worse about myself sometimes after visiting.
Kathy Hepinstall – Kathy is an author of several published novels and has a new one set for release. She’s very funny and might even be related…
On My Square – He’s a funny guy; right now he’s doing a series about Black History Month. His posts about BET and Gub’ment cheese are hilarious.
There.
Well done! Your proactive attitude is admirable but you are unlikely to bore anyone in the near future. Offend even dissapoint – perhaps (can’t please everyone) – but bore – doubtful!
Haha! Thanks for that!
Thank you very much… the reason why I like these is because it gives me four other spots to check out, usually better than mine, always a treat!!!
Good to hear. Keep writing; I’ll keep following.
Hi Rich, congratulations! thanks so much for encouraging me through this award. I haven’t been on WordPress these past hours, days and weeks until I got your email notification. I’m still out of town and will surely give the shoutout once I’m blogging again! God bless you always and may you continue to become an inspiration to many of us! 🙂
You feel worse about yourself after visiting? What’s up with that, guy? 😉
Thanks for the award. Blessings..
Adrienne
Well, remember – I’m a struggler. Lots of times when I visit I’m reminded how much. You’re awesome, though.
