The Sunshine Award

My friends Kaarina and Barbara have both nominated me for The Sunshine Award and it is not because I live in a land of eternal sunshine either.

Here are the rules for accepting the award

1. Thank the person who gave this award and write a post about it.

I know, I don’t always play by the rules and today I am really jammed for time so I am doing things a bit differently. A comedian once did a bit about the difference between how men and women react to flowers.

The basic gist was that women really like them and that when they ask a man to smell them he doesn’t smell something pretty. Instead he sticks his nose in their and thinks, $50 bucks. I didn’t tell it the way that I should have but it makes me laugh every time.

Even though I didn’t follow the rules very well I appreciate being chosen and am grateful for it.
