Awards and Olympics, Oh My!

I love the Olympics. And not only because there is literally nothing good on tv and I was going to be forced to watch toddlers and tiaras til the end of summer. I’m a big fan of the major events – swimming, gymnastics, tennis (is tennis not a major one? It is to me).  But watching non stop coverage has made me appreciate the lesser known ones, like kayaking (paddling?) and fencing. And I've been watching a LOT.

Notice we're on the comfy futon.

Crushing my olympic dreams. Le sigh.

In honor of the Olympics, I thought I’d pass along some awards that I’ve been hoarding. I present to you:

The BLOGGER OLYMPICS

(or, here’s some awards).

Firstly, the awards. Some of them are really old, because I’m slow and I like to do awards in bunches. My apologies.

Thank you to Lettuce Be Clear,   What Inside Voice,  and For the Love of Writing for passing on the Kreativ Blogger Award.

And thank you to Contemplating Happiness,   Write, Rinse, Repeat. , and  Angela Shelton for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award.

Now as part of the Blogger Olympics, I’d like give these “medals” (awards?) to the following kick ass blogs:

Charlotte’s Web 

Blather by Bubbe 

Misty’s Laws 

Handflapping  

Creative Devolution 

The Pish Posh 

(Pick whichever is your favorite. And I don’t remember the rules but if you want to follow them, tell us seven things about yourself.  The weirder, the better.)

If you need me, I'll be tweeting about the olympics.

Spoiler alert: this will be a topic next week.
