A few days ago, I got an email from a very talented woman name Kriss Kramer.
Kriss, Rebecca Peck and I were roommates at our Design Team Ranger U. Can you say knock me over with a feather.
I got to sleep in the same room with women who just oooozzzzeee talent.
I mean, they sleep with a pad beside the bed so that when an idea hits them in their sleep, they can write it down talented. (OK, I made that part up but it really got you thinking...)
And would you believe that they actually like me. I mean like I have their cell phone numbers like me.
Rebecca has gotten me out of more than my fair share of jams. She is teaching me to keep my foot out of my mouth. This is a talent that I have mastered with much pride, I might add.
Kriss has just settled on me not sticking it in up to my knee cap.

So, the rules for the “You Make My Day” award:
Re-present it to 10 people whose blogs bring you happiness and inspiration and make you feel happy about blog land. Let them know through email or by posting a comment on their blog so they can pass it on. Beware you may get the award several times, and if you do, consider yourself really, really loved.
Here are some of the blogs I visit regularly and get a lot of enjoyment from -- either by their inspiring artwork or their wit and clever observations of life.
I have added all of these women to my blog roll. They are part of the woman circle that I have grown to love and need. The bottom line is that these are my GUUUURLSSSSS.
until we meet again,


Lauren, thanks so much! You've made my day many, many times too. Thanks for being a blessing in my life.

Well, you always make my day each and every time I read your blog I know I will get a good laugh. You write just like you are sitting here next to me, and that's such gift. You must have picked up some skills from your dad... yup I'm giving him credit!
So back at you and I'm not sure how to give you this award, but you get it back from me right now!
