Minnie has the same attitude my cat has about blogging. He’ll bite my hand to let me know I’m done for the day. Congrats on all of the awards. Much deserved! And thanks for the nomination. I’m sorry it took so long to pop over, I was out of town without my computer. Thanks and have a wonderful day!

Yes Minnie has done the bite trick too….the only way I could find to help her be comfy in the office where I am most of the time running the business etc. was a heating pad under a wool blanket she likes..now she races my hubby to get to the office before he does and claim her chair with her heat pad…it is totally cute and funny:) If I am on the laptop she will push her way into the laptop and insist I stop and pet her for several minutes…our kitties are both full of character:) Minnie is my shadow and I loves her very much:)
You are welcome on the nomination as you deserve it! I love your blog and the photos you share…and that is awesome and good for you that you left town without the computer:) I hope your time away was peaceful and relaxing:)

Since you’re accepting awards, thought I’d give you another one. You deserve it. You remind me of things I loved and though I can’t ride any more, I can remember the joy it gave me and be grateful for all the years on horseback. You are officially (?) a Beautiful Blog winner, so please come on over and accept your award. I really so much enjoy your writing.
