I recently received a wonderful blog award from Lisa E at "From the Outside Looking In" (http://snogirllygoeskeyboardhappy.blogspot.com/).
***
Lisa is passing on an award she recently received; and I absolutely love her acceptance award post:
***
"I am sitting here in my favorite Vera Wang Evening Gown, freshy pedicured in Heeled Slides, Hair in an elaborate UPDO, and in Full RED CARPET make-up, including MAC lipgloss in playful pink, sipping champagne, as I humbly accept this award. I am thrilled that my first blog award ever has been given to me by my friend, Steven. Dude you rock, and continually knock my socks off (ha, I know you like that) ."
***
I'm sorry if disappoint you all, but contrary to the glitz and glamor of Lisa E's acceptance attire, I'm a little bit more casual. I'm accepting the award here in the comfort of my humble abode (carpet needs vacuuming - sorry!), sitting at my wee little corner computer desk, drinking a HUGE cup of my favorite tea (and I'M sorry it's not champagne). I'm wearing my jammies with the little trees all over them (sans bra -- Ohhh, really sorry this time! Not a pretty sight!!), and my tan-colored carpet slippers (which may or may not be a little smelly, depending your standards! .... Sorry!)
***
If it helps any, I haven't washed off my office make-up yet and I'm still wearing my pretty earrings!
***
"Thank you, thank you, newfound friend, Lisa E, for this amazing award! I shall endeavor to live up to it's prestigious reputation!"
***
(Slurp, slurp, ahhhh! Rumble, rumble -- BURP!)
***
"Sorry!"
***

You are so kind to award this to me too. I am not good at passing on awards so will be posting it in my side bar along with a link to your journal. I just think that all of the others I read including you are worthy of the award. Thank you for reading my blog.
Congratulations on your award!!!
Your new look is awesome! Good job!
Thank you so very much for blessing me with this award. I am honored and humbled. I apologize in advance that I am not good at sharing these awards with others as I can never choose "just a few". I will be mentioning this award and linking to your blog though.
Thanks again - you have made my day!!!
First of all congrats on your award Sandy! Well deserved I might add! Many thanks for thinking enough of me to pass it on! You really made my day! I am honored. xxoo

Congratulations! "Sans bra" - it might not be a pretty sight, but oh so liberating... I mean comfortable.
