What a happy post, and congrats on your award. I smile every time I see daffodils or dafs, as some call them--don't know why but they are definitely happy flowers. Hope you are feeling better.
Congrats on the award & a special THANK YOU for gifting me with it! I am so honored! You are such a doll! Thank you again.
Oh & my post with all the details should be up some time today - it is taking forever to get the pics uploaded! ;o)
Aw, thanks! Can I give it back to you? Because honestly your header alone makes me really happy...but I guess that's cheating, so I'll think of 10 other blogs to pass it along to.
Thank you, Shannon, for the Happy Blog spot!!!
I LOVE it!
Am SO hoping to meet you one day. You're just warm rays of sun for this rain-tired Oregon girl!
sorry it posted me twice! lol
Shannon, congrats on your award and on winning a query crit over at Shooting Stars. *happy dance* And thank you so much for adding my blog as one of the blogs that make you happy. THAT makes me HAPPY! Dang! It's just happiness all around. Whoa! :0)< See I'm smiling?
I really, really appreciate you. I don't know if I should be happy if you're feeling better. You seemed so happy to be at home. Hmmmm *hugs*
I'm over at querytracker today. Doing the agent search thang. :-)It's hard. I think I have found THE agent and then *poof* I realize I was wrong.
Got any posts on hunting agents up your sleeve? Though I have learned from Beth R. (my crit partner), Jody H. and Katie G. But it's hard.
SO. HARD.
Congrats on the award! Now I have new blogs to check out and follow- huzzah!
Daffodils make me smile too. I love flowers!
