Hi Suzanne(let me know when I can start calling you Quzy).Thank you so much!!! Just went to visit my uncle in hospital and had to tell all the nurses about my award.I think they all thought I was strange (even after I explained what blogging is all about)Only a fellow blogger can truly understand how much these awards mean.
