~~~ WALKING THE RED CARPET~~~~




YOU LIKE ME.... YOU REALLY LIKE ME !!!!




I feel just like Sally Fields did on Oscar night !!!




I am only hours old...at least in the wonderful world of Blogland...and lookies here I got awards already...



I got a BFF Gold Card from Chari at Happy to Design and a Tootsie you mean the world to me award... WOW how come Toots award is so Big ???

Hey guys remember I am only hours old and still learning to do this darn thing... I Wish to thank Laurie at Bargainhunting, for telling me how to even get the darn things here ( only took me hours to learn that ) I wish to thank Tootsie for telling me how to add to my Blog list... and for just calling me on the phone and working with me...HELLO She lives in Canada ( and no you can't use the Gold card for the phone bill )

I wish to thank Susan at Between naps on the Porch... for telling me how to add music if I wanted it...I guess she did't just want to sing when she came by here lol!!

I really wish to "THANK ALL OF YOU" that took the time to leave comments I got so excited just reading them...

as I have not a clue what I am doing here all help is great!!!

Now use your Imagination here...I am accepting these awards with my designer gown from Bob Mackie on ( hey!! he made Cher look great ) with a beautiful Tiara placed on my long Red hair thats flowing in the wind, blowing kisses to you all !!!

( now the real me is sitting here in my old red robe, with my short red hair that needs a combing, and drinking a cup of coffee .) and for that just picture Maxine in a old red robe ha ha !!!

I think I am suppose to give these awards to people..don't remember all the rules...so please if you don't have them take them to your blog... OK imagine me bowing now !!!

Have a great day...Hugs and Smiles... Gloria

While you’re there please sign my guestbook and if you want to click on my followers and keep in touch with my updates… If you don't mind I would like to add you to my favorites. Nice meeting you...

Gloria,

A BIG WELECOME.....((((HUG))))with a welcome kiss on each cheek. Okay, so I'm Italian, what else would you expect. ;)

Your blog looks great!!! I wish mine looked that good at the start, and I'm still finding my way around, I'm afraid I just don't give it enough time.

Since one of my best friends name is Gloria also, I call her 'Glo', I'll be singing the song GLORIA, every time I click on to your blog :). No need for music for me.

Wishing you great times with your blog, I have no doubt that you'll meet many great new friends.

God Bless
'D'

I'm visiting your blog because Chari from Happytodesign gave you and me the "Kreativ Blogger" award yesterday! What a rush - I feel like I really was "walking the red carpet" as you so aptly put it!! My little blog is barely a week old - and I've wondered the same thing you have - "What in the world am I doing?" I've read some of your posts and you sound like you're doing a fantastic job - lovin' them already. I'll be sure to visit you often.
Thanks for making me smile today -
Lynette

Sue said...

mornin sweetie, sounds like you are having a blast! You'll probably be sitting there in that chair with your old red robe on for half the darn day, poor Len, he'll have to cook his own meals from now on! LOLOL!! Congrats on your first awards! Have a great week G!! xoxoxo

Chari at Happy To Design said...

Just as a hush begins to fall over the crowd...a new wave can be seen (you know how they do that wave thing at football games) the crowd bows low to the floor with arms outstetched in front of them...chanting..."You are the ONE...you are the ONE...Gloria, you are the ONE"!!! We are all "taken aback" by your awesome beauty...wooed by your charming charisma...hanging on every word that utters forth from the newly crowned Ms. Gloria!!!

We stand in awe....
or....
as I like to more "simply" put it...
Yeeeeeeeeeeehawwwwwwww!!!!!! You did good, girlfriend!!! Congrats on your blogger awards...I'm lovin' your blog and you know that I'm your #1 FAN!!!

Love ya,
Chari
PS...heheheheheheheeee!!! Isn't this fun!!!

Would have been here sooner, but I got bogged down on RMS. Your posts have really changed there. I was searching for the beautiful sun room, I thought you had posted there. Couldn't find it. Must be another case of CRS (Can't Remember Stuff), an affliction that grows more pervasive for me, with each passing day.
Well I'm here now, and have to tell you, I'm finding it hard to believe, this is your first rodeo, as they say. You are handling everything like a pro. BTW, congrats on your awards. I know how honored you feel, as I was honored recently myself.
