If you are a regular blogger, you know all about Blog Awards.
I'm terrible at receiving them.
I don't want any giver to think, for even one second, that I am not grateful for them or even a little excited about getting them. But, I feel weird (I'm not sure that's the right word) about being the recipient and then posting about them.
I feel like I am bragging about something I have no business bragging about when I post that I have received them, or if I add the award to my side bar.
This is not an uncommon issue with me. Even though I am the "life of the party" usually, there is a huge part of me who doesn't like to be pointed out! It's a complicated mixture of emotions.
So, I wanted to take a moment to thank Loren for the awards she has given me this summer ~ the Friends award and the One Lovely Blog award. Thank you for thinking of me and for your kind words.
Yesterday I received the Your Blog is Fabulous! award from Kendra, one of my new DFW blogging friends. That was very sweet for you to think of me, Kendra, and the things you said about me made me feel so good. Most importantly, by quoting something I said in the first few minutes you met me, makes me feel important and listened to. Thank you for that!!
So, ladies, the Blog Awards are very much appreciated!! I think you are awesome too!
Well said! I didn’t realize how much work they were until I blogged about my first one. It was fun and I’m of course flattered but it was hard picking other people to give it to and to think of my 5 things.
