I have received another blog award.
The Goldilocks Award
Actually, it’s the, “You Are A Winner” award, but I like to think of it as the Goldilocks Award because it suits me perfectly. It’s not too big, or too small. It’s not too involved or too easy. Definitely not too hard. This award requires me to do nothing, and if there’s one thing I am highly qualified to do, it’s nothing. Finally, an award that fits me perfectly.
I’ve received a variety of blog awards from different people. This is yet another from one of my favorite bloggers, Benzeknees. Without actually doing any research, I’m pretty sure that she is the only one who has brightened my day this way more than once. We may have to be careful that her husband and my wife don’t find out about this ongoing ego massage.
To say that some of us have not been Freshly Pressed is an understatement. My posts are generally too wordy to achieve that. This award is just a little pat on the head or the back to let you know that there are readers who appreciate what you publish.
I am not required to do anything with this award except appreciate it, and I certainly do. It’s a little Nothing – Feel Good award, but it’s amazing how a thing that means so little, means so much. Thanx Benze!! 😀
You can accept it or not. You can display the graphic, as I have, or not. Remember to stop back here after drinks, to pick up your copy, if you want one. You need do no other thing, no answering questions, no revealing personal data. I find that you are subtly expected to pass it on. Other than a few honorable mentions in my first blog-award acceptance post, I have never strewn these awards like rose petals before a bride.
All that is about to change, ladies and gentlemen! I am going to pass this award on to a few people whose efforts I have appreciated, with the added thought that I am definitely not the only one. I worry, even now that I will offend some worthy recipient by forgetting, or not having enough time, energy or technical knowledge to include.
The envelope please – and the winners are….ah, you’re all winners. Here, in no particular order – oh, wait, WordPress put them in alphabetical order, no favorites.

Okay, all you guys take a bow – and equal responsibility for making me what I am. Then we’ll go for some refreshments. I’ll provide the poutine, if Rants will spring for beer.
Congrats to you. 🙂

Wow, thanks, buddy! Gee, another award that I have no idea how to post (yeah, I do have instructions …. somewhere), accusing me of some form of greatness no one has yet seen – myself included! 😉 But hey, bling is bling, right? (Um … sorry, that was dumb. Of COURSE something is equal to itself. That’s a given. It’s the transitive property, I think. Or somebody’s property. Maybe it’s the little pins on a map that mark out different properties, you know, property tacks?)
Betcha that ramble makes ya think twice before dropping any more of those SQUIRREL! ………. awards on me. Right, Gramps – I mean, grumps? 😉
