I’d Like To Thank My Publicist…
Lynilu at Never Ending Journey has a most excellent blog. So much so that her blog has been rated E for Excellent – a very fitting rating.
She turned around and rated four other blogs with an E, including mine. Boy, was I humbled to be rated alongside these other fine bloggers! So now it’s my turn to rate another blog or two. As all of you know, this is so hard! I think all the blogs I read are worthy of an E rating. Otherwise why would I read them?
I’ve decided to pass the “E” rating along to two of my new favorites. Funny thing is, they’re related. AND I get to meet them both in the fall. IN REAL LIFE!
Sing4Joy at Southern Living and Other Peeks Into My Psyche has a truly Excellent blog. Her husband is currently in Iraq and she sometimes posts these wonderfully touching excerpts from his letters home. She also writes funny, sweet and encouraging posts. Not only does she sing for joy, she exudes joy. Add to that she’s now officially a professional photographer and you’ve got a completely Excellent package!
His Girl at His Girl’s Blog also has an incredibly Excellent blog. She’s a speaker and an author and generally the person I want to be when I grow up – except I’m older than she is. She’s open and honest and takes us on her walk with the Lord, inspiring me all the time. Not only that, but both of these bloggers are FUNNY! And I love funny.
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is EXCELLENT or praiseworthy—think about such things.

Then I received this very “kind” award from HisGirl. (Those of you who know me very well are probably snickering at how I’ve fooled everyone. Yeah. Me, too.)
Now I don’t tolerate unkind people and I’ve found the majority of bloggers I hang out with (virtually speaking) are very nice. Everyone on my blogroll easily deserves this award, too. But I’ve got a pretty hefty blogroll going so that would take forever. Instead I’m going to pass this on to two as well.
Deb at The Daily B is always kind. She is a sweet, sweet girl with never anything snarky or mean to say. NEVER. How many of us can say that?? Well, not me anyway. And you can just look at her beautiful smile and know she’s kind. She happens to live in the vicinity of my in-laws so I plan on meeting her someday, too.
And Katybug at Watercooler Wisdom… Or Lack Thereof is always kind. She’s pregnant with Little Bug – a muy surprise blessing – and she still manages to be nice! Of course, I am a little biased because she shares the same intense adoration of the delectable fluffernutter as I do. Some day we’re going to meet in real life and chat and laugh over fluffernutter sandwiches and chocolate milk.
Oh my! My first award! woohoo! Kindness? Once my sister/fellow blogger hears of this she will snicker. lol. Thank you so very much, Jenster!
Thanks for the thanks! have a good week, Jen! I understand you met up with a mutual friend/blogger. Hope you both felt me there with you!
Congrats on the award. You are very desrving.
How can I forget to congratulate you?? Congrats!
Ooh fun…now I have some more blogs to go check out!!! Congrats on the awards. You deserve them all!!
To quote Bill and Ted, you are MOST Excellent, and MOST kind. I think even So-crates would love reading your blog and musing with you. I’ll have to check out these ladies. I don’t know if I want to meet the one who’s always kind, though. Might make me feel like poo. 😉
Thanks, people!!And Deb – I was very pleased to give it to you! And not that it matters, but I wholeheartedly approve of your bestowees (is that a word?)And Gretchen – She’s so kind that you can’t possibly feel like poo when you’re around her. Trust me!!
YOU LOVE ME! YOU REALLY LOVE ME!!! 😉 Thanks, Jenster. I consider this quite an honor coming from such an honored blogger. Congrats on yet another blogging award.And Gretchen, if you’re quoting Bill & Ted, YOU ARE MY FRIEND FOREVER!!! So-crates Johnson would agree with me, as would Dave Bee-tho-ven. 😉
That’s awesome that you get to meet some blog buds. You’ll have an awesome time with those two ladies.Congrats on the ‘E’ rating. You totally deserve it!
Congratulations on your awards!! Very, very well deserved, as you are both excellent and nice. Perfect!XOXO
Yay you little superstar!
I have attempted to comment on this all day long, so please forgive me if all my other attempts just keep trickling in so you get like 7 comments….here’s what I have to say; you, miss Jenster, are without a doubt one of the coolest people I have ‘met’ on the internet. not only do you deserve the awards, but you actually exemplify them… and i do mean that, even if you think you have us snowed!now, to have passed one on to me? wow. I am humbled and overjoyed… and, girl… I can’t BELIEVE I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL TIL THE FALL TO MEET YOU!!!!mwah!
Woohoo! Way to go Jen!
Jen, “I’ve got something for you”, I really do… =)
Congrats on the well-deserved E rating!I hope to meetcha in real life one day, too! My hubby’s aunt would LOVE to have us come to PA… And in answer to your question, we’re in the High Desert area and as Dusty Rogers, son of the famous Roy Rogers (both of which lived in our area until about 10 years or so ago) once said, “We’re nothing more than a bathroom stop on the way to Vegas.”
You are so deserving! :-)(Your comment blessed me, totally! {{}})
Jenster -As Deb correctly predicted, I did snicker a little at her Kindness award… ha ha ha. Maybe it’s the whole she’s my little sister perspective, but I will say, she has kindness with a fiesty twist! Way to Go DEB! Congrats on this honorable and prestigious award!Cat
Tra la la la la….You have spoiled me beyond words I can bring forth from the fathoms of my aging brain! And…did I see up there that BECKY wants to come for coffee in the fall too??? Seriously. Does life GET that good?I’ll need you to email me directly at irearrange@yahoo.com so that you can give me all the insider details for our upcoming adventure!>and I completely agree with you having the “E” rating!!<
Congratulations to one of my most kind and excellant of blogger friends. You deserve both.
