Well! Whoever believes they deserve an award? Probably few of us, but it sure feels good when someone actually gives us one! Thanks Colleen! I’ve been reading Colleen’s health meanderings for a long time now. While she writes a sort of diabetic diary, I was attracted to it because Hubby has Type II diabetes. He’s doing fine so far with medication and exercise, but I’m always interested in how others cope, so I read her blog to this day because it’s much more than that. Other things came through those diabetic postings that should serve to remind us all that our illness does not define us.
The award comes with rules though. First, I have to complete the survey with one-word responses, and then I must pass the award along to 3 more deserving blogging friends who then have to do the one word thing! Enjoy, and click along to the next recipients for more over-the-top goodness!
Note: Those familiar with Wintersong will readily recognize how big a challenge one word answers will be. As I read through Colleen’s one word responses, thinking what my own would be, I keep wanting to add explanations, so this may be a big challenge after all! Let’s see how I do . . .

Now to pass on the award to 3 more over the top bloggers:
Cheese Grits: (listed on my blogroll as Grits with Cheese and Pop). Michele is a young writer I admire who does thoughtful and beautifully written posts, and I’m pretty sure that–in spite all those endless stereotypical jokes about southerners ever circling the internet–is just as proud of her cheese and grits heritage as I.Kay’s Thinking Cap: A life of health and economic challenges gets her down from time to time, but Kay stands firm in her commitment to make it in the world with grace and good humor.
Postcards: Because Maggie’s cheerful demeanor shows through her writing, when I read my postcards from Maggie, I always come away feeling good. We have similar interests like cookbooks and old photographs and striving to improve ourselves, and she introduces me to all kinds of new stuff to google and think about.

Thank you thank you thank you. What a dear you are. What great thoughts…..and I like your answers too. I’ll be back later in the day, but now I am off to work out in the rain and chill of the outdoor pool. Yes, I am smiling about you and laughing at me. 🙂
I’ll be popping around to see if you posted and what your one-word answers are. I can feel your smile.
One word answers are not always easy, you did well.
Thanks, Grannymar. As you might have guessed, one word answers are virtually impossible for me. And I spent years and years trying to learn to write with as few words as possible in order to be a more effective writer.
