Hello once again everyone out there around the world!  Here we are with another award.  I got a bit behind on my vacation, during which time I received several awards.

  1. Thank the person who nominated you.
  2. Then you gotta answer the questions that the person who nominated you asked.
  3. Then you must nominate 5 people and ask them 10 questions.

questions…

  1. Why did you start blogging? I will let Muffin answer this one since she blogs too. Meow, meow, mew, meow.  That means she started so that she could tell events of our lives together as it really is, and not the way I tell it. 😹 I’m not sure what she meant by that.🤔
  2. Favourite film? This is an old Abbott and Costello movie, Hold That Ghost.😂😂
  3. Cat person or dog person? CAT, CAT, CAT! (Muffin is watching)

  5. Do you have any pets? YES. You mean you can’t tell? Muffin!!! The best pet in the world! (she is still watching and my feet are still healing from last time).😹🤪
  6. Which song “speaks” to you the most? (Eg. Lyrics are Relatable or Motivational etc.) Songs speak? I thought they sing? Learn something new all the time.😂😀
  7. Do you like horses? Yes. I love easy questions.🐴
  8. Do you have any siblings. If so, do you get on with them? Yes. Yes. As long as I have a big stick🏏😀hehe, just joking.

  10. Most embarrassing moment? You must be joking. I’m going to admit this? In public? I don’t know if it would really qualify for embarrassing anyway. Like when I first…no wait, I can’t, too embarrassing.😂😂😹😹

About the Blogger Recognition Award

The Blogger Recognition Award is an award given in recognition of all the hard work that goes into creating a blog. It is a way for bloggers to support, motivate and promote other bloggers who have clearly put in huge amounts of time and effort, and produced valuable content.

Bloggers are very talented people – they work hard, they promote, market, advertise, run a busy site.

They organise all kinds of activities, they encourage, motivate, interact, engage and are community orientated. It matters not if they are shy and reticent or loud and personable – each actively progressive blogger is the same – they all work hard and passionately with their blogs, they put the hours in to deliver to their audience each day a welcoming location to read, absorb, learn and have fun.

To escape the hustle bustles of city life, or the begrudgeries of boredom – they entice readers to peruse their pages to look for entertainment.

That is what the BRA celebrates.


The Award Rules

  • Write a post displaying your award.
  • Thank the blogger(s) who nominated you, and provide a link to their blog.
  • Tell the story of how your blog started.
  • Give two pieces of advice for new bloggers.
  • Nominate other bloggers for the award.
  • Let the nominees know that you have nominated them.

HOW MY BLOG GOT STARTED:

Well, let’s see, I started my blog and here I am today.  That was easy.  Meow.  What do you mean ‘no’?  Meow, meow, meow.  Hey, who’s writing this anyway?  Why does it have to be longer?  Why details?  Why…MEOW, MEOW!!!  Okay, okay, a little longer it is.  Sigh.  Well, I started this blog exactly 2 years ago, sort of, though my first official post was a week later.  Why was that?  Because I had no idea what I was doing.  Sometimes I think I still don’t know what I’m doing.  (meow, meow) I heard that.  Laughing at me behind my back right beside me.  Not nice. 

I started because I like to write, especially humorous things or topics about nature.  But this year I have branched out a bit and written on many different topics especially when collaborating with my good friend Ilona.  I have really enjoyed the journey and especially meeting people from all over the world and making so many new friends along the way.  And that really has been the most enjoyable part of this blogging journey.  It was actually some friends that initially encouraged me to start a blog and though I was a bit nervous at the beginning, I am certainly glad that I took on the challenge.

TWO PIECES OF ADVICE FOR NEW BLOGGERS:

1. Keep it simple, especially at the beginning and write about things you enjoy or topics about which you have some knowledge.  Don’t try to get too technical or in depth except maybe now and then if the topic requires it.

2. Interact with your followers and with people you follow.  It is terrible to leave a comment and never getting a reply, not even a like.
