Sweet Mary! First of all, congratulations on your very well deserved award! Thank you for thinking of me – I’m so honoured! I know I should accept and do the things I should do…but my job is always stressing me out and I can barely keep up the challenges and reading all wonderful blogs in this blogging community. Yours is one of them – one of those very beautiful blogs that has you captured once you get there. I do hope you will forgive me, I am afraid I’m useless concerning this…

Thank you so much!!
It’s a Liebster kind of day. Heartfelt congratulations to you!!
Thank you so much Cyndi!
Oh my!! You sure know how to pick the wrong candidate for this award! 😉 Firstly I’ve answered enough questions about me it would seem already and how boring is it to read more about me?? ! Second to choose that many bloggers who’ve not already done this is fairly stress-full, brain-exploding and just-plain-hard. I’ll give it a go for you, Mary, but I do like to complain too.
It must have taken you days to do this task. Why is an award a task anyway…. Yes I know it is a challenge and it is actually a “FUN sounding challenge” just not where my brain is at at the present time. If i wasn’t fighting with certain people maybe i’d be more prone to say “Oh Boy!” …
I do much appreciate your thinking of me. I know you don’t know me well enough to realize i am a bit of a curmudgeon about things. Also a little stick in the mud and depressive as well . But i shall try my best.
Much love, my dear. I adore your art. xoxo
(ps-honesty is probably my downfall and certainly pisses people off at times. I do hope it doesn’t to do that to you as that’s not my intention! i write all this with a wry smile… 🙂
Oh Linda – what a wonderfully worded reply. It’s really okay if you don’t do the award, in fact it will relieve the stress that comes doing the award.
I appreciate that you took the time to give you feedback on this activity, because I truly understand.
I leave it totally up to you, and if you choose not to participate I can’t say that I blame you – it’s okay to say no.
Most important is that you enjoy your weekend and let this go. Take care and enjoy painting. Mary
yes it went thru 🙂 🙂 🙂 /////////// just contact them 🙂 they are super awesome at answering questions quickly 🙂 Congrats 🙂 2 🙂 xx
Thank you so much, not one notification that I’m sending out is sticking, or it’s going into spam. I’ll contact them. I hope you day is awesome. Thanks, Mary
