A Sunny Day in the World of Money
As we should never take the world of money too seriously, I have had a wonderful event happen: one of the squirrely writers of the Today blogs dropped in and gave me the lemonaide stand to deliver to ten other bloggers. It’s actually a Lemoniade Award. So for all of you visitors today, take a glass of virtual lemonade, kick back and relax from the heat of the markets, Christmas shopping, and anything else that makes you sweat. Now I pass this on to the next winners of the Lemonaide award, to share in their right to make the winter full of sunshine. (I have no idea who started this bizarre tradition, but I’m glad it’s easier than picking a thousand pink flamingos from my lawn or toilet paper out of my trees!)
Thank you to Theresa at Careermysteries.today.com for driving the stand right over. Here’s a toast to her blog, as she is on top of both the Human Resources end of the job market, and enjoying life in general.
Here are the rules for you lucky recipients:
The rules of this award for recipients:1. Put the logo on your blog or post.2. Nominate at least 10 blogs which show great Attitude and/or Gratitude!3. Be sure to link to your nominees within your post4. Let them know that they have received this award by commenting on their blog.
5. Share the love and link to this post and to the person from whom you received your award.
I choose these blogs based on the fact that they looked as though they have worked hard on their blog. I also choose folks I had never visited before and have nothing much to do with what I write about. I encourage all of us to go visiting!

Just so all of you know, I spent a good long time perusing the today websites to find folks who take their site seriously, put some effort into it, and seem to enjoy sharing with others. Some of you have blogburst type quality, some are like journals, still others are just for fun. I am impressed by the diversity of what is out there and hope that newbies will continue to get their sites set!
Enjoy the lemonade award and finding ten other blogs to award this Lemonade Award.
Thank you very much for the Lemonade Award! This has made my day and I know that when I tell my son, who has been helping me with the blog while I have been busy, he too will be thrilled!
I think this is a wonderful idea and a great way to spead the message about other blogs.
I will do my best to continue on with the Lemonade Awards and will come back and let you know how things are going!
I am adding your link to my blog roll so everyone will know you stopped by.
Again, thank you very much for finding my blog worthy of the award. I hope that you enjoyed yourself while visiting and learned a little bit about mosaic Down syndrome along the way!
Thanks

6. networkingonline.today.com
Cheers - Bronwen
Thank you for the award, but you left today out of my URL. It should be NetworkingOnline.Today.com
Great job in dispensing this award and I look forward to reading your excellent blog in the future.
Thanks for awarding me the Lemonade Award. It added that little sweetness to my morning. I will take it seriously and hunt down 10 other blogs to award. I already have one in mind. I do try to make my blog informative, although I do use first person some times. I’m not a fan of the diary blog. What fun this is - thanks again.

You know, it was so early and I corrected so many mistakes before I ran off for work- and I STILL made mistakes! But I didn’t make mistakes with the blogs I chose. Thanks for your kindness in your corrections and great job to the winners.
Thanks for the uplifting comment! It made my day!
It just means that I play many roles in life. You know, we all wear many hats? It’s got nothing to do with what I wear on my head.
Gee, thanks!
