Playing Catch up again with awards

Okay, this time I have an excuse ( well, sort of) as to why these lovely awards did not get published immediately. One of our daughters and her hubby came from DE for a visit. We hadn't seen them since last May and won't see them again until this coming November, so hubby and I were in a frenzy planning and prepping for the visit. Of course the day before they were to leave and we were having other guests for dinner, didn't the air conditioner finally bite the dust. May in Florida can get hot and since my son- in- law thinks anything over 60 is too hot, you can imagaine how this went down. Anyway, we all survived but I didn't get too much reading or blogging done during this time frame. Now that they have gone home, it is time to catch up on a lot of things. I already miss my baby, okay so she's not really a baby anymore since she'll turn 40 this year. Sheeesh, that makes me really, really old! Anyway, I digress. Must be a sign of advancing age. Where was I? Oh, yeah, awards . . . . back to the awards. Focus, Kaye, focus!

Serena at Savvy Verse and Wit added to my Lovely Blog Award. Serena, I am on bended knee begging for your forgiveness for being so late in posting this. Thank you so much, this means a lot to me.



My book buddy and fellow Floridian Bingo at Bookin with Bingo has bestowed upon me the princess award. Too cool! Most days I feel like the ugly stepsister but Bingo has magically changed all that. Wow, and I didn't even have to kiss any frogs or wear any glass shoes. I'm always home by midnight, so I certainly didn't need magic to change that. Besides, I'm not too keen on mice. Pumpkins are ok, but mice, nooooo. Everyone out in the blogosphere is definitely a princess as far as I am concerned but I am passing this on to:

Wendi at Wendi's Book Corner
Alyce at At Home with Books
Toni at a Circle of Books
Luanne at a Bookworm's World
Mary at Bookfan-Mary
Dar at Peeking between the Pages
Blodeuedd at Book girl of Mur-y-Castell
Kelly at The Chic Geek
Melissa at Shhh, I'm Reading

So, put on your tiaras, break out the bon bons, prop your feet up and read a scintillating book. You deserve it!

Yvonne at Socrates Book Reviews has awarded me with the #1 Blogger Award. Thanks Yvonne! This one I am leaving open to all the bloggers out there. You all deserve to be #1 with all the hard work you put into your blogs. Book loving community - you are the best!
