For a smile as wide as a country sunrise
Hello once again dear readers and it’s so nice of you to stop by today. It’s a special day. With more awards! They just keep flying in. And I don’t mind. They are especially helpful when my brain isn’t working. Which is most days it seems. This nomination comes directly from Huguette at https://huguetteantoun.com and she is a woman who likes to offer encouragement to others when they need it and she certainly has become a big supporter of my blog which means she must have a lot of courage. She also likes to laugh a lot and have fun. She lives in Lebanon, a very beautiful (and warm) place. That’s one. Thank you Huguette for this nomination, it’s much appreciated!!
Versatile as per Google is “adaptable” “flexible” and here at WordPress:
The Versatile Blogger Award was created to celebrate blogs who have unique content, strong writing, and beautiful images or photographs.
Okay, one out of three isn’t bad.
Seven genuine and honest facts about Me (and maybe Muffin)
Now, it doesn’t say that the facts have to be NEW facts. And since this is the second time for this award, (or is it the third?), it might be hard to find something new. But I will try.
1. Um, hmm, uh, this could be tough, I’m stuck on the first one. Oh, I have one, I love COFFEE!!
2. Okay, we’re moving along here. AHA! I love French Fries!! I could eat’em every day.
3. I enjoy refinishing furniture.
4. I have waaaaaaaaay too much stuff.
5. I have a messy desk and it drives me crazy, but if I clean it up I can’t find anything and it drives me crazy and being crazy drives me crazy….so I just leave it alone.
6. This is going along quite nicely, don’t you think? I’m a crazy type of guy that likes to take chances sometimes even though I’m serious in a fun sort of way which makes me a fun sort of person that likes to have fun. But I am fun. Really. It’s true. Sigh.
7. I can be a good friend. Honest. Just ask all my friends. I do have some. A few. Well, I know there’s at least one out there. Meow. Aha! Muffin! MEOW! Oh, she wants food. Sigh.
8. Oops. I was supposed to stop at 7. Notice, I did not even mention that I like warm places in these points! One of these days. Sigh.
Well, there we have it everyone. Now, the nominations, if I have not nominated you yet, please let me know if you would like to receive an award and I will include you in one of my next awards.

There used to be a whole bunch that made their nests at one of the rec centers where I work. One time one of the owlettes was standing on the ledge, with full wingspan, just looking into the window at all his fans.

At least the sun is shining today and it’s not raining. It’s been raining all week. I read that you live in Canada too. Which province do you live in? Right now, I’m living in Alberta.

I’m in northwestern Ontario, little town of Kenora on the north shore of Lake of the Woods. And nearly the coldest spot in the country! It was raining here but it has stopped and the sun is trying to come out.🌞😃

My friend is from there! She told me that it gets quite cold because she lived so close to the lake. I moved to Alberta in January 2018 but was born and raised in southern Ontario, about an hour’s drive from Lake Ontario.

With the lake and river right here there is always open water no matter how cold it gets and that increases the humidity which makes the temp feel even colder.🥶 Small world sometimes! For some reason I always thought you were from the US.😂😸

Did you really? I’ve lived in Canada my entire life 🇨🇦 I talk about the US sometimes so maybe that’s why. Interesting you thought I was from the US. I wonder, what state am I from? 😂

Good morning Huguette! Thanks for stopping by, I knew you would like #8!😂😹My desk has finally gotten a bit too messy now, so time to organize again. Just never stays that way for some reason. Fortunately it’s a drop front desk so I can close it hiding the mess!😂 Hope your day is going good, it’s Friday!😁😸🌞

Oh yes it’s Friday 😁😁🌞🌞hope you’re having a good sunny day! We’re having summer in the spring (35c)
The most important is that you can manage somehow in the middle of this 😸 I can’t stand the chaos, leave me 5 minutes with your desk and you’ll not be able to recognize it 😂 I’m gifted with that
Enjoy your weekend and it’s always a pleasure 😊🌞🌞

5 minutes? It will probably take me half a day to deal with this mess!😂It is a beautiful sunny morning, the birds are singing, at least the ones that are still here and it’s time for coffee!😁☕😜Gotta have that coffee! oops, and feed Sir George again.😁Hope you have a great weekend too! How can it be otherwise with such great temps! We’re hoping for 15 today. Oh well. More rain later today as well.😁🌧
