What a lovely idea to have a blog award celebrating
friendship. The Liebster Award has been given to me by my blogger friend Rebecca
Bradley at Life in Clarity. Do pop along and visit her [but not until you’ve joined
me in our tea party, of course.]
I don’t understand loners. I’m best as part of a group [even
if I am a bit bossy]. Friends are the most important part of my life. When I
say ‘friends’ I mean members of the family too. My best friends are my amazing kids, my long-suffering husband and my lovely sister.
And when I say ‘friends’ I don’t mean all those people on
Facebook. I mean the ones who turn up when you’re in trouble, who phone when
things are going wrong, who offer to do something... anything and who genuinely
want to make you feel better.
Some of the people I’ve met through this blog have become
friends and I know that quite a lot of my friends read this blog. I also know that
you know how awful this last year has been. Last August Rod was seriously
ill in hospital, last September my darling dog Josh died, in December Mum
collapsed and this April Mum died. I’ve needed my friends more than I ever have
done before. So, to say thank you for being there, I’m throwing a Jvirtual tea partyJ
Friends who read blogs have no idea how exciting it is
to get a new follower. It’s not the same as making a new friend but it shows
that there’s someone out there who I’ve connected with and that’s important. So do please follow my blog before partaking of cake and a cuppa and then you might like to go and visit some of my blog friends, because I must now pass on the Liebster Award to six bloggers who, in the spirit of Rebecca’s wishes, have less than 250 followers.
So I award the Liebster Blog Award to:
Kathy McKendry at Imagine Today
Pauline Barclay at Scribbles
Amy Sonnichsen at The Green Bathtub
Julie Kemp Pick at Empty Nest Insider
Miriam Drori at An’ de walls came tumblin’ down
Damyanti at Writing on Writing: Amlokiblogs
And now...
Do have a cup of tea.
Sugar or sweeteners?
Or are you sweet enough?
*giggles at polite joke*
Help yourself to cake.
Anyone fancy jelly and ice cream?
Isn't the weather fabulous. We're lucky the rain's held off for our party. Are you going on holiday this year? Top up of tea? Thank you so much for coming along. I love parties...
