The Sunshine Award

Aaaaw shucks I received "The Sunshine Award" from Debbie at http://stitchintherapy.blogspot.com/ She is such an inspiration to me and I always learn something from her whenever I visit her blog.

The beautiful flower and lovely sky lifted my spirits quite considerably.
I'll add to this post later. I've had a fairly intense week or two what with one thing and another.

I'm baaaack :)
So according to Debbie the Sunshine Award is passed on "to bloggers who have influenced you with their positive outlook and creativity." Thanks Debbie ........ now I'm blushing since I know how creative and positive Debbie is. (Then again it could be menopausal hot flashes ;))

I'll be passing the award along as soon as I pick a few from the multitudinous group of positive and talented people I visit regularly ! Y'all deserve it.

Here are the guidelines for when you are nominated:
1. Save the image above and post it on your own blog.
2. Pass the award on to 12 fellow bloggers.
3. Link to the nominees.
4. Let nominees know they have won this award by commenting on their blog.
5. Share the love and link to the person from whom you received the award.

(Addendum - I won't be the least bit offended if you choose not to pass along the award. I know many people find it hard to participate.) I hope you all enjoy visiting the above blogs and learning from them.

For all of you who visit my blog here's another of my flower photographs as a gift :)

This one was taken outside of the Kirtland Temple, Kirtland, Ohio when we visited there a few weeks ago.
