A week and a half late, but a big SHOUT OUT AND THANK YOU TO Dear Kitty for nominating me for The Most Influential Blogger Award.

I have found so many friends from having this blog.  It always amazes me when new people stop by, or old friends I have never seen face to face reach out as if we have known each other for years.  I feel honored and blessed to have so many talented lovely people who stop by to read.  And thank you Dear Kitty from deep in my heart for nominating me for this award.

The guidelines for acceptance are:

1~ Display the Award on your Blog.

2~ Announce your win with a blog post and thank the Blogger who awarded you. Do not lump this award with any other award in a “basket”, “bouquet” or “collection” etc, I would rather you didn’t accept the award.

3 ~Present 10 deserving Bloggers with the Award.

4 ~Link your awardees in the post and let them know of their being awarded with a comment (or a pingback).

5 ~Include an embedded video of your current favourite song (YouTube has virtually everything, just copy and paste the link into your WordPress editor). If a video is not possible you can embed a SoundCloud track.

Here is my list of ten deserving blogs, although there are so many more I would actually nominate….it is hard to limit it to ten, but then I would be writing this post for a very long time and adding links too.

.  Mamaflybox

.  Cindyknoke

.  Happy Bare

.  Writing Between the Lines

.  Mindlovemisery

.  Harbin77

.  Currentstreams

.  Smorgasbordinvitation

.  Nutsfortreasure

.  Afrankangle

and I have thought about this for a week, favorite song-video is hard, but I have decided Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong, Summertime  is appropriate for the season.
