Lookie here, I've been tagged! Kim at Kim's Cottage sent me this cutie pie award, and now it's my turn to spread some linkie love and pass it on to others :o)
The rules that go along with the award are to answer the following questions with one word answers ... then pass it on to 7 other bloggers.
Oh dear ... I did all the work and the only part of the instructions that my brain actually processed was the part that said "7 other bloggers." Dang! I just now found the phrase "one word answers" and, um, it's too late to change them (actually, it's 4:15 am and my insomnia's wearing off for the evening). So, if you're a purist about this sort of thing, feel free to mentally-insert-a-bunch-of-hyphens-between-the-multiple-words-and-make-it-all onebigword ... if, of course, that makes you feel better :o)
As always, I write in the spirit of Mark Twain, who said something along the lines of: "I would have written a shorter story, but I didn't have the time."
