I’m going to get the confession out of the way first – I’ve been hoarding awards!
I have posted about some, but I have others that I have done nothing about. My biped kept a note of them for me and I put them in a safe place. She has finally finished getting the pages ready for me to display them. I thought I was just going to pop the awards into position, but it all took a lot longer than I expected because I had a few minor problems retrieving them from the safe place and then she said that I had to clean them before I could put them on the blog!
The ground had gone hard, I had to enlist some help to retrieve my awards!

Thank you for the nomination – I will go and sniff out the “rules”!
It was my pleasure! If you can’t find them you can have fun making some up!
That’s tempting – I actually did trace it back to its origin at http://ballybin.wordpress.com/2013/05/14/because-youre-fantabulous-award/ and there is nothing to do but bask in the glory of the award! I will write a little something though…
You did well to find that! It is nice to know how things began. Bask and enjoy!
Clowie! You gorgeous girl you! You nominated us!!! Thank you so much, you made me smile, and the girls have some tail wags and licks just for you!
And a big congrats to you for winning those awards!!!
I do have a couple question though Clowie, maybe you cold send me an email? Or get in touch whichever way you prefer.
Thank you! Enjoy your award.
