My 100th post and counting....

This is my 100th post !!!
WOW.. that went by quickly!!! 
Thank you to everyone for your prayers and support as I recoup.
I can now bend my knee but I still walk funny. I kinda waddle like a duck. You can stop snickering at me now...lol.
But while I have been out I have been working on some things that really needed to be taken care of.
I will post about those later today.
But I have been watching from the wings.
(Did you think that I could just go cold turkey??)
I was reading my dear friend Julie Marie of Idllyhours
posted this great post ,"I refuse to be a stepford wife!"
I was sooo caught up in her post that my girls truly believed I had "caught the holy ghost".
"Amens!" were flying out of my mouth like I was sitting on the front pew of my church! 
So upon talking to my beautiful and terribly creative sis, we came up with this:
Yes that is correct!!! 
This is our award...it is to acknowledge all my bloggy divas who think outside the box and cherish individuality!!
Basically, you do you and don't give a damn what others think.
I LOVE IT!!! 
So here are my first recipients:
for truly inspiring this award!!

If you have never been by these ladies blogs... oh you are missing out!!! 
There will be many more passed out..trust me. 
And to my bloggy buddies that do not accept awards.. I understand.
I really hate that because there are some truly unique blogs out there!! 
Well, enjoy and remember to stay true to yourself.
p.s. to Mr. Anonmous - this one's for you..wink!!
Feel free to pass it on!!!

Pay it forward


 Yesterday I was given a true honor
The "Chic" Award.
I am soo touched. My bloggy sister Cat from Writing Out Loud
gave it to me.
Now it is my turn to pay it forward.
I must give one to Meli Faif Life .
She inspires me beyond words. Not to mention she is stunningly beautiful.
Have you seen her beautiful daughter? It must be in the genes - and shirts. LOL.
Then there is Ms. Angelique of Six in One Hand...
Ok I am a little bias but she is truly chic at it's finest.

And how can we forget the incredibly talented ( not to mention hilarious)
Ms. Robelyn of Red Neck Chic.
She is my "ride or die" bloggy sister diva!! I know that I can always look to her for a smile!!!
( or if I need to take my earrings off - she has the duct tape.)

Last but surely not least is LuLu Kellog!!!
Truly this is awesomeness at it's best right here.
If you have not had the opportunity to visit these fine ladies and their blogs..
Please do so. You will not be disappointed.

Thank you again Cat for honoring me with this. It means the world to me.
Have a blessed day ladies...
