I Humbly Accept This Award.

I humbly accept the prestigious and much coveted, 'One Lovely Blog Award'.  This award has been bestowed upon me by a very clever and witty blogger who lives in that fine Canadian city of Winnipeg.  So Tracey, I wish to thank you very much for having such excellent taste in selecting my awesome blog.   So much for me being humble.
You can visit Tracey's blog  here : Flieder Floxx   I know you will be thoroughly entertained by this delightful lady's postings.
Now, as tradition states, I forward on this much sought after and much loved award to some worthy recipients.  'Can I have a drum roll please?'   'Here's a drum roll for you, klahanie.'  'I thank you'.......'drum roll'........and the superb bloggers that I have bestowed the 'One Lovely Blog Award', upon, are....'get on with it man!'
Okay,  the following blogs touch my world.   Here they are in no particular order.  If you click on the highlighted names you will be taken to their lovely blogs.

Soundoff  This is a blog written by a very dear friend of mine, Heather, who I would like to promote.   This is a blog of inspiration and determination.   It is about embracing a positive environment and showing resilience in the face of adversity.
Random Thoughts   This is a beautifully written and very thoughtful blog.  I have had the great privilege of interacting with the fine lady who writes this blog.  Her name is Sharon and I am grateful for all her support and encouragement.  If you have not checked out her site before; it is well worth your while.  I consider it a must read.
joanne rose   This blog is a beautiful pictorial and poetic delight.  Inspiring and thoughtful, I would highly recommend this wondrous site.  I thank her for sharing such incredible talent.
A Day In The Life   My good friend, David, at this highly articulate and thought provoking blog, writes about the ongoing challenges that need to be addressed in the pursuit of reducing the unfair stigma that still surrounds mental health issues.  I hope you will check out my good friend's blog.
Views From the Bald Patch   Now this one had got me fascinated.  It's the ongoing adventures of a British family that have started a new life in my other home, British Columbia.  You really must see the photos of his 'Pirate Ship'.

There were plenty of tremendous bloggers to choose from.  I just want you to know, whether you were on this list, or not, that your interaction within this fantastic blogging community is very much cherished.  And to the recipients of this award, well done and do as you wish with the prize.

Thanks again, Tracey.  I am truly honoured that you would consider me for the 'One Lovely Blog Award'.
