Hootin' Anni's Day Trippin'

<><><>

Lookeeeeeeee here!! I just feel like smiling to everyone today! Our son has worked long hard days, months, and years to get to this point in his life. I'm so proud. As he is of himself. He deserves all he's accomplished. 'Cause he did it all on his own, with no financial help from us...his parents. Just this past May [in fact, on his birthday], he received his Master's Degree in Liberal Arts. With all intentions of someday becoming a college professor. And oh so quickly he was hired on as the university's staff for the Fall Semester! *beaming with joy*

It's now official. His mugshot photo and staff information is listed with the University's staff book! Houston, watch out! He's on a roll!!!!

I just received this wonderful "Fabulous" award. Crysm at Memoirs of a Mommy was very kind to think of me! Of my blog, and others she mentioned, I appreciate all she wrote: "These are a few of the blogs I have come across since I started blogging and I really enjoy reading them. Go check them out and see why!"
Thank you so much!!



Also, to my surprise, Talk to Grams, presented me with this very lovely and meaningful award. I thank you, Carolyn, for honoring me with this. You certainly have graced us all with your presence in the blog community. And I feel much obliged to you for thinking of me!!

A different week. And new and different treats handed out.
This week's treat:



Each day up until Halloween [October 31st]
I will be handing out
a treat for 1 - 5[one to five] bloggers who drop by
during the week for visiting.
You're more than welcomed to pass it along
to ones you think are deserving of a special treat
for the season.
Kinda like "Pay it Forward"
Y'know, one goodwill gesture deserves another?
But DON'T just choose your friends
making this cliquish and 'just groupies'...
Make NEW friends by choosing random visitors!!!
It seems that 'awards' are floating around blogland
and just "blog friends" get chosen all the time.
Make it RANDOM!!

If you do decide to share it with others
then, USE THIS "TREAT" IMAGE and
link it back to my blog and
explain where the idea originated.
Click on the image to expand and then save for displaying on your blog if you choose.
