I have received this KickAss Blogger award from alejna!
I saw this while I was in hospital yesterday and it both cheered me up and choked me up, especially when alejna wrote: What I find most endearing about az is that she makes it easy for me to forget that I haven’t met her in “real life” . I remember her telling me that before, I think when we started playing online scrabble, and it’s just about the nicest thing anyone has ever said about me. Thanks for that, honey, as well as the rest of that blush-making tribute.
I’m supposed to pass this award on, but as my online time is somewhat restricted at the moment (this danged J-shaped scar is causing quite a bit of pain and keeps making me lie down), I’m going to pass the buck instead and suggest that you all nominate yourselves and then pass it along.

A well deserved plaudit!
There is always something interesting going on at casa az.
Hope you’re staying comfortable today.

What a great award for you, and you truly deserve it. I totally agree with Alejna’s statement. You do make it very easy to forget you haven’t met in real life. And then when you DO have a chance to meet in real life one finds out that you are just as you present yourself on your blog. There is no disconnect between the blogger and the real life person, and I’m sure that cannot be said about every blog and blogger.
Blessed be and hope you are feeling better.

That’s a wonderful award and some lovely praise, all of which I whole-heartedly second.
You have a clear and genuine blogging ‘voice’ which I feel sure would be the same in the ‘real’ world.
Go Az! 😉

az, you have a first-class “voice” in this blog. You are very “real”, and present — your blog is clearly a labor of love, and you never “phone it in” like some bloggers I know.
I’m always frustrated on the days when I can’t seem to stay on WordPress long enough to find out what you’re up to.
