I got an award!

But we all know it's not the Best Mom of the Year Award. I forfeited that one on Day 7. And it's certainly not for the Best Friend of the Year, because well, I have no "local" friends. Well, if you don't count Mo or Roz. BUT. My bloggy friend, that's right my bloggy friend, over at Junius & Pippi gave me this. The Honest Scrap Award. Thank you Cyndi!!

And while the few of you who actually read my blog, probably think this is silly. I feel very honored to be thought of. Who doesn't like a little acknowledgement every now and then? Plus, this could not have arrived at a better time. I was feeling a little down and insecure this morning because of my apparent inability to make decent friends. Then, my dear husband, whose poor ear I bent this morning with my self-inflicted loser woes, sent me flowers "Just Because". I am now much happier. Screw all you potential "real" friends. Who needs ya anyway. I've got flowers and a blog award. :-P

According to Cyndi at Juni & Pippi, I'm supposed to come up with 10 Honest Things and share this award with 7 people. If I had 7 bloggy friends, I would do exactly that. But I don't. I'm a loser. I can, however, come up with 10 Honest Things which you may or may not already know.

10. I have reached a point in my career in which I no longer feel the need to get ahead. I am perfectly content watching other people work 60+ hours a week for someone else.
9. If I could do it all over again, I would not have children. Just to see what it's like.
8. I despise shopping for myself. Until I find something.
7. I'm never content. Ever.
6. Once I don't like you, I can never like you.
5. I don't floss.
4. I've had melanoma.
3. I want to be blissfully, romantically, sickeningly happy, but am not remotely capable. And, I'm just to old. I know better now.
2. I cannot watch TV without doing something productive, otherwise I feel like I'm wasting time.
1. I want to do much more with my life, but don't know what or how. And that bothers me on a regular basis.

So, happy Friday to you! I hope you have a fabulous weekend. I for one, will be a single mama dealing with contractors, sports and birthday parties. Can someone find me the liquor bottle? STAT!

3 friends have something to say...:

I love the new header. And for not having any friends...you just like making things up. From one of your oldest friends...Kelly (#2).

Well you guys don't count - you're far away in Maryland - it's not the same. I'd like to edit my post to say "local" ;-)
