Of all the awards that I have seen on other bloggers pages, this is one of the most impressive to have.  I am so honored Jenny at My Fibrotastic Life found me qualified to receive this award.  As she did such a good job in setting this up, I am going to use what she did.  I tend not to mess with something if its not broken, and sometimes I have leave things alone if they are broken.  Jenny’s blog My Fibrotastic Life is really uplifting.  She suffers, as many of us do, but she also has a great way of looking at things.  She has decided to take this time when she is at home to challenge herself in learning new things and make new friends.  Her page is one I really look forward to reading each day, and I love when she discovers something new about herself.

What is the Versatile Blogger Award?

According to the dictionary, one of the definitions of “versatile” means “to move easily from one subject, task, or skill to another.” In other words, it is an individual who is multi-talented and resourceful. To break the concept down of this award even more, I love the way that the Versatile Blogger Award blog explains how a nominee is chosen:

“When you consider nominating a fellow blogger for the Versatile Blogger Award, consider the quality of the writing, the uniqueness of the subjects covered, the level of love displayed in the words on the virtual page. Or, of course, the quality of the photographs and the level of love displayed in the taking of them.”

Pretty much, when nominating an individual, how much does their blog move you? Do you look forward to reading their posts everyday? When finished with reading their posts, do you feel a sense of contentment and inspiration? There are several blogs on WordPress that make me want to jump up and down, and clap my hands whenever I see a new post. Now THAT would be the type of blog that deserves this award! :)

If I am nominated for the Versatile Blogger Award…then what??

Here are the following steps you need to take if you are nominated for this award:

1. In your post, thank the person who gave you this award and include a link to their blog.  2. Select 15 blogs/bloggers that you’ve recently discovered or follow regularly. ( I would add, pick blogs or bloggers that are excellent!)  3. Nominate those 15 bloggers for the Versatile Blogger Award — you might include a link to this site.  4. Tell the person who nominated you 7 things about yourself.

And lastly, don’t forget to copy and paste the Versatile Blogger Award to your page!

7 Random Things About Myself!

1. I have yet to decide exactly where I want to live out the rest of my life, as I have to do extensive research into witch burnings, vampires, and werewolves.  Tough research!

2.  I am the loyal servant of a Bichon Frise (Wizard), a Maine Coon, and a black cat (hence the fear of witch burnings!).  My Crew.

3.  My one dream I don’t think I will ever accomplish is going down in a shark cage and hangin’ with some sharks.

4.  I miss my horse.  Any horse. Damn! I miss my saddle.

5.  I seriously need a Cosmopolitan (or 2 or 3).

6.  I am in great need of crab legs and am thinking of taking up a plea on the Internet.

7.  I am seriously afraid of Black Eyed Children or People.  Yeah, after you read this you will be thinking I am not so crazy.  ‘Thought so!

About me for Word Press: I am 50. Yeah! Ok, I have cried, whined, and even talked with a guy who told me he was Father Time. I am thinking he was not and he was just an old man trying to hit on me. Anywho, fifty is here, no escaping now. Yes, I am slightly obsessed with this change in my life. I don’t feel 50, although I am not sure what 50’ers feel like. I just remember thinking, and this doesn’t seem like too long ago, ‘OMG! You are 50. That is so old. I am never going to be 50. Kill me before I get that old.’ Well, nobody has killed me yet, maybe that is at the surprise b-day party. I feel 35, and I know what that felt like. I was independent, had my cool ass truck, and my life was great. I had a great career at the time, and was dating a lot. So, I think I will just turn 35 again at this b-day. PEOPLE TAKE NOTE: This year will be my 35th b-day. Okay, about the rest of me. I have a “crew of three”: a Bichon Frise (M) who is not show worthy by a long shot simply because ‘his mamma’ cuts his hair’; I have a Maine Coon (not a hat!) (F) who is the oldest of us all, including older than me; and then the littlest one, my all black Ragamuffin cat (F) who is almost as old (6 months younger) as the Maine Coon. Now the one who causes the most problems: hmmm…depends on the day, or night as it were. Wizard, the loveable ball of energy (which I am sure he steals from me at night), is the Bichon (so you don’t have to look it up, he is a dog. No seriously, he is a canine.), well, he can be quite a handful. So much so, g-ma doesn’t want to have anything to do with him most of the time. He is a dog, thus he is work. Cats are lazy, and thus people who don’t like to work with their animals have cats. (Oh, jeez! Sit down all you cat people. Get over yourselves. I have two cats as well, so I am equal opportunity pet owner.) I am sure I will be sharing many antics about him in future writings. The cats are pretty…well, lame. They lay around all day, are too quick for breakfast and supper (we have scheduled times here), and they basically do nothing. They are at the age now where they are not even really entertaining anymore. The black one looks so much like one of my black pillows, I have to make sure there are not claws attached to what I lay my head on. The Maine Coon, though, she is the one who understands me the best. She is like me, whereas the other two sort

  5. Wow! Thank you so much! Congratulations to your for receiving this award and to those on the list of whom you bestow this honor. I am so happy to be included on this list!

  6. Thanks to Jenny for the information. It was real informative. It’s not too often you find a little history on the awards. I liked that you included it.

    I plan on writing a post to catch up on the awards. As a start, I added them to my blog sidebar today with a link to the page naming those I received them from.

    Thank you again for your support. It means a lot, Rene.

  7. I have to say I can’t take the cred for the explanation. It was researched by Jenny, at My Fibrotastic Life. She is really great and did all the work.

  8. Rene – congratulations. I just saw this one and I like how you go into the meaning of versatility including the site with the background for this award. You certainly capture this on your site.

    I’m truly honored to be chosen as one of your nominees for this award and to be considered versatile. I’m overdue and working on catching up with an awards post and hope get one in soon.

  9. Congratulations on you award!! I was very moved by your speech. I think I’m still blushing! 😉

  10. Good idea. What was funny is I had 10 things about me, which took me some time, then realized I only needed 7, and then….15 bloggers.
