I’ve Got Sunshine….

It is cloudy and raining today (Friday) but that’s ok cause when it’s cold outside I got the month of May (predicted temps next week 90 degrees) I guess you would say what can make me feel this way – MY FRIENDS – talking ’bout MY FRIENDS….

It is an honor to be nominated not only once but twice for the Sunshine Blogger Award!

I can not thank Roda the person who has the farm living lifestyle I so badly want and am so jealous over!! – Check out her amazing farm, garden and exciting tales of chickens, ducks and foxes at Growing Self.  You’ll be delighted you did!

Also as stated earlier,  a great big huge “ginormous” thank you to another wonderfully delightful person Linda, who you will enjoying meeting and reading the Maine Paper Pusher  at Everyone Else Has The Best Titles – she has the most hilarious, witty and down right funny stories you’ll ever read.  You won’t be disappointed!!
