Soy Wax Candles Blog

This award was given to me a while ago by my Great Friend Janet over at Dolly's Daily Diary, but I have been so very lax in posting it, and for that I am so sorry....But I love Janet's blog!! She is one of the most inspiring woman that I know!

She writes the most fabulous articles on Loving Kindness Meditation, which is something I think we all should try to follow. She also has been my strength sometimes when I have needed it the most, and for that, she is irreplaceable to me!!




So, here are the rules for this lovely award...
1) Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person who has granted the award, and his or her blog link. (check, done!)
2) Pass the award to other blogs that you’ve newly discovered and any of your favorites if you would like. Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

And here goes my list of blogs that I would love to give this little beauty to, some new and some old friends:

I received this award from Candles, Crafts and Whatnot, and I wanted to let everyone know that it means so much to me! My poor little Candle blog here, doesn't get many awards, so I'll take them whenever I can!!
I just might have to go over there and pilfer some more awards, hee hee!

Anyway, this blog needed some love too! I know this blog is neglected from time to time, but still.....I felt lonely over here without awards. Kinda like the black sheep of the blogging world!

So, now I am exuberant and extremely happy that I was awarded an award too!
Thank you all for your support!

A BIG Thank you to Kay's K9s for giving me this award! It is my very first one, and I am soooo excited~! I'd like to thank the academy.....oh wait, that's not right! LOL!

I wrote a nice write-up on Kay's K9s site over on my other blog, Candles, Crafts and Whatnot, and I still visit her regularly. She is amazing with not only the art that she creates, but the work that she does for our animal friends. She sponsors animals that need to find homes and donates profits from her sales to good causes too! She is the best!

Anyway, back to my award.......The Rules for the Award are as follows:
1. Mention the blog that gave you the award & comment on their blog when you post the award.
2. List 6 things you VALUE & 6 things you DON'T VALUE.
3. Then, pass the award onto 6 other blog buddies!

Six Things I Value:

1. Family and friends ~ I wouldn't be who/where I am now without them. :)
2. Alone Time ~ I really enjoy the time I spend by myself, I am a strong person, and don't at all mind my own company!
3. My Creativity ~ It gives me such happiness to create.
4. Being in Control of my Life ~ To a certain degree I can control what I do, and when I do it, and I like that feeling.
5. My Values ~ Mom brought me up right, and I find that today, some people don't have values, and I feel sad for them. :(
6. My Job ~ In today's economy, I am lucky to have a job that supports me.

Six Things I Don't Value:

1. Rude People ~ I don't understand the actions of people sometimes?
2. Money ~ I value what I need, not much more...I am not extravagant by any means. I always say, I just need enough to live off of, not millions.
3. Fancy Clothes ~ I am not big on dressing up, give me jeans and a sweatshirt and I'm pretty happy!
4. Dressing Rooms ~ Uggghhh, not a fan, don't use them.
5. Cell Phones ~ I use mine pretty much for emergencies only.
6. Shoes ~ If I could do without them, I would. I am not a "sterotype" female who owns 100 pairs of shoes. I like naked toes!!! Lol.

So there are my things...now I need to pass this along to 6 other blogs.

I choose:

1. Lapidary Queen Wannabees
2. Dashery Jewelry
3. ShinyAdornments
4. Michon Jewelry Blog
5. Karooart
6. Aerten Art

Congratulations to the above sites for inspiring me so much, that I want you to have this award! Please keep creating beautiful things, and I will keep coming back! :)
