Lots of Awards and Memes Too
November 8th, 2008 by Connie RobertsThere’s been so many fellow bloggers who have been kind enough to honor me with awards and think of me for memes (some that go along with the awards) that I need a digital frame to show them all off. It’s a great feeling to be recognized by people I admire doing something that I love so very much. So thank you in advance!
~From Carly, aka HelloKit at Confoozled.com I was given the Super Blogger Award. I’ve known Carly on and off for years. I lost track of her and then found her blogging! It was nice to get to "see" her again and a joy to read her humorous tales of real life.

~I was tagged by Linda of Are We There Yet ? This is a fun one called the Power of Four Meme:
Four places I go over and over:
- Peanut’s school
- Church
- Disney
- Walmart
Four people who email me regularly:
- Pedipaws – how rude!
- Blog RSS Feeds that I can’t live without
- Some Blogging Site that pays like $3 per post, whateva!
- My friend Darlene
Four of my favorite places to eat:
- Panero’s
- This great Italian Pizza Place near by Hubby’s work
- Rainforest Cafe, their salads are to die for
- Outback, I’ve only been once, but really want to go again
Four places I’d rather be:
- Visiting my dd in Kansas
- Disney
- On a cruise
- At the Beach
Four TV shows I could watch over and over:
- Lost, can’t wait for it to start again
- The Situation Room
- The Office
- 30 Rock
Four people I’m tagging:
I’m taking the easy way out. Do this tag if you want to. It really was fun.
~Sophia from Healthy Perspectives tagged me to write Six Random Things About Me:
- I can’t stop eating chocolate. I’m addicted to it.
- I love the sound of rain. It calms me.
- I am so pale that people don’t believe I live in Florida.
- When I read a book, I don’t hear anything around me (if it’s a good book).
- My daughter’s wedding has me so excited that I feel like I might burst.
- If I had more hours in my day, I’d spend them reading blogs I love.
~Mary 512 from Adventures in Mommyland honored me with the Sparky Blog Award.
Here are the rules:
Post the badge on your site and link back to Maternal Spark.
Tag 5 of your bloggy friends who have sparked creativity, conversation, controversy and friendships! That’s it, it’s easy to spread the sparky love so go on…do it!
- Tara at Feels Like Home
- Stacey at Havoc and Mayhem
- Helene at I’m Living Proof that God Has A Sense of Humor
- Tess at Six Feet Under Blog
- Andrea at The Creative Junkie

I’m a wife and mom of two daughters. My daughters are 12 years apart so that keeps me quite busy and a little crazy at times. My life is a jumble of mixed up mishaps, but it’s always centered around my family.

Oh yes Jessica, I feel like I should be on the Red Carpet

Congrats on the awards – you’ve been busy! And thank you very much for paying it forward!
November 9th, 2008 at 1:17 am
You are very welcome! And yes I’m sort of too busy now. No happy medium for me. But I’ll take busy over not having anything to do any day.

I’m a chocoholic too. I just had some dark chocolate. Congratulations on your daughter’s engagement. When is the wedding?

She’s getting married early August of next year, either the 1st or 2nd of the month, Sophia. I can’t wait!

Outstanding – to be recognized by so many fellow bloggers, congratulations!
BTW, chocolate is also my favorite and so are good books – both pure joy…

Daria, pure joy is the perfect way to describe chocolate and good books. And thanks for the congrats too.
November 9th, 2008 at 4:37 pm
Hey Heather, are you getting those pesky Pedipaws emails too? Aren’t the commercials enough?
November 9th, 2008 at 4:39 pm
cady, One weekend I plan on renting the whole series of Lost and watching it straight through. I’ll be a zombie but it’ll be worth it.
November 9th, 2008 at 5:55 pm
It’s going to come so fast. You know how the months just fly by. It’s exciting; I love weddings.

Thanks Mary for thinking of me. I appreciate your kindness.

This was so much fun to read! It’s a good way to learn more about someone!! I, too, can get completely lost in a book if it’s really good, leaving my kids to scream at me “Mom” over and over and over until I realize they’re standing right in front of me.
Thanks for tagging me!!
