Sisterhood Award

Wow! Blogging has never been so much fun! :) I have received my second Sisterhood Award in a week (one for each of two blogs). I’m thrilled to bits. Blogging can be a great way to express yourself, but it gets really interesting when you start to get some feedback in the shape of comments. And an award is not just feedback, but positive validation. So yay!

My thanks to Frankie Anon at Object Wisdom for this award. Frankie writes a fascinating blog about objects. I was hooked when I read these 3 short lines in her description of her blog: “We all know the unexamined life is not worth living. But what about the unexamined toaster oven? Is it worth living with?” A thought-provoking blog, with lovely stories about various “objects.” Do check it out.

According to the rules of the award, I now get to nominate 5 fabulous women and their blogs. These lovely ladies are requested to keep the cycle of support going by nominating 5 (or more) other women bloggers.

And the rest of you are urged to visit these great blogs:

I’d Like To Say A truly inspiring blog. Judy writes with beauty and grace about the loss of her son, her love for her family, life’s continuing joys and sorrows. Her poetry is all the more powerful for its lack of self-pity. I love you Judy, you are a fabulous woman!

Follow Your Heart Another inspiring blog, this one by Sally Forrest. There is much spiritual wisdom here and a beautiful, calming spirit.

The Womens Blogger Directory I presented Alana Roberts with this award sometime ago for 2 of her other blogs. But this blog deserves an award of its own. The Directory is a great place for women bloggers to network, discover new blogs and new ideas, learn from one another and support one another. Sisters, check it out!

Vintage Postcards - Cpaphil Marie Reed makes wonderful use of her amazing collection of vintage postcards – mostly from France - to create this blog. She weaves in interesting nuggets of French history. You can join her Postcard Friendship Fridays with cards or pictures of your own – or just enjoy this fun blog.

Suzanne Casamento – The Question of the Day An interesting and thought-provoking question every day, plus a great way to get the readers involved. In short, a thoroughly interactive blog that makes you think too!

Now for the rules governing the Sisterhood Award:
1. Put the logo on your blog or post.
2. Nominate at least 5 blogs which show great ATTITUDE and/or GRATITUDE.
3. Be sure to link to your nominees within your post.
4. Let them know that they have received this award by commenting on their blog.
5. Share the love and link this post to the person from whom you received your award.

Before I end this post, a big thanks once again to Frankie Anon over at Object Wisdom!
