Tagged Times Two

I am so honored! I have been tagged twice in the past few days. First a big thank you to Mary for selecting me for a Nice Matters Award! Mary, I'm so truly honored that you consider me a nice blogger. It made me think that being nice really does matter. I always try to be nice to everyone I encounter, even if they aren't necessarily being nice to me. There have been several times where I feel I've been taken advantage of and I've thought "To heck with being nice! It gets me no where!" Of course, this is only a temporary mind set (and quite a bad one at that!) and I'm usually back in my right mind before too long. I've tried to make my blog an interesting place to visit and get a peek into my world, and I'm happy that you all are here and that Mary considers me worthy of this award! Now, I'm supposed to nominate 5 more people but I can't pick just 5 for this. I nominate all of my wonderful blog friends listed in my sidebar! Each and every one of you has been so kind and wonderful to me and I give you big hugs back!

Second, Laurie, aka The Glitter Fairy, a wonderful new friend, has tagged me for a 4's tag. Do check out Laurie's blog - she is so super talented and has many great ideas for using glitter. She has even appeared on Martha Stewart multiple times! You can check out the links on her blog to see some of the fabulous projects.

Miss Karla,
You soooooo deserve to be tagged on this! I've never met you but know you are one of the kindest people I have ever come across. Someday we'll get you out of Conn. to California and hopefully that will be one of your new favorite places! Congrats! Miss Mari~

Nothing wrong with Connecticut! It is one of the prettiest places I have ever been!

I love your list and love all your sweet awards. You truly are one of the dearest people I have met through this wonderful world of blogging!

Have a nice Wednesday Karla!

Hugs,
Sue

You most certainly deserve a "Nice Matters" award! You are always so kind and considerate - and such a good blogging friend. I know that if I had the chance to be your friend in person and see you regularly I would certainly love it! I enjoyed reading about the "4"s and I'd love to visit Connecticut.
