I also want to announce that sometime between 8:00 AM and 9:00 AM yesterday morning, I had my 2000th visitor to my blog.
2000 visitors in almost eight months.
WOW!!!
*
Welcome 2000th visitor to BearNaked blog and hopefully you will return again and again.

Twins-Double Delight

Yesterday, bobbie from Almost There
gave me an award.
*
This is a twin award: one called "You Make Me Smile" and the other "Super Commenter."
*
*
bobbie's insightful and artistic blog is a * must read * that I highly recommend visiting. Her commitment to making this world better "one t-shirt at a time" is inspiring.
*
I thank you, bobbie and I humbly accept this award.
*
It is a twin double delight and I proudly display this award on my left sidebar.
*
Now I would like to pass this twin award on to five people whom I feel deserve it.
*
Chesapeake Bay Woman from Life in Mathews is a delight to read.
If you haven't visited her blog yet, you really are missing out on a great deal of fun.
*
Mental P Mama from The Mental Pause Chronicles always has interesting and fun quizzes for us. Her comments section is fun to read also.
*
Daryl from out & about in new york city is a very creative photographer with a marvelous sense of humour. Her photos take us on tours around the city, across the country and into her home.
*
Wendy from COPD - Caregiving is NOT for Wimps!
Her blog tells us of the challenges she is facing with her spouse's COPD. I think her latest challenge, to have me contribute poetry on her blog comments, is possibly her largest though.
*
And last but not least is JeanMac from Welcome to our World.
This is one very special lady who is caring for her husband at home with compassion and bravery. Her tenderness shines through in her blogs and in her comments.
*
Please take the time to visit the blogs of these five beautiful women.
Ladies, you can pick up your twin award by scrolling down on my left sidebar.
