Another AWARD!! Yay me!! I just love recognition, awards, applause… basically any attention at all!! Yep, I’m an attention hound!
Brenda, a new friend at Camellia’s Cottage, nominated me for a second Blogger Recognition Award. Here’s her link, so you can go visit her. https://camelliascottage.com/2016/06/04/blogger-recognition-award
She’s a true southern lady! Make sure ya tell her I sent ya, ya hear?

How pretty is this?? Thank you Brenda!
Now, Bloggers – should you choose to accept this award, here are the rules:
- Write a post to show your award.
- Acknowledge the blogger who nominated you.
- Give a brief story of how you started your blog.
- Give two pieces of advice to new bloggers.
- Nominate 15 bloggers who deserve this award.
Well, of course I accept!! Y’all who know me, know I’m an attention hog fer sure!!
So, here comes #1!!
And this is it!! Thank you, Brenda, for the nomination! I’m so glad I found you, and made a new friend! What a blessing!
Oh wait! Was that #1, or #2?? Do I have start all over again, cuz I mixed it up??
gets all in a tizzy, runs around like a chicken with its head chopped off, and faints from the exertion
Well, I was sick (and tired) of having a nasty house, hence the slob part of the name. And, I love adore am passionate about the color purple, hence that part of my name. I was plain sick, too. Hence the recovery part of the name. {Are you tired of seeing “hence” yet??}
So, I hunted around Googled “slob”. ASlobComesClean came up. Once I read her first post, I was hooked! I had found my people! AND, she was a real slob, just like me! SO, I thought to myself, “Self, if Nony can do it, so can you!”
And here I am, 2 years later, an expert slogger! {slob blogger, I’m also lazy, so anytime I can make 1 word do, I will!} (Expert- Bwahaha! I think I’m so funny!)

No, thank YOU!!
I certainly hope that was brief enough to qualify for #3!
#4. Hmmm, give advice… That sounds so bossy! And I’m just the woman for the job!! I’ve been told I’m bossy, ever since Bro. could talk! So, about 5 decades now! (But, just cuz it’s repeated {constantly}, doesn’t mean it’s true. Right? RIGHT???
First piece of advice, make sure you really want to do this!! It sucks all your time!! But, it’s so rewarding and fun, you don’t care!! My BBFF (Best Blogging Friend Forever) Janice, assures everyone that we can blog, and still find the time to sleep!!
Second, and this is IMPERATIVE!!! Learn how to properly use hyperlinks!! And use those puppies every opportunity you get!! {Kinda like I did in this post!!}
Okay, last but not least, name 15 other bloggers to grace with my presence, oops, I mean this award!
Whew! I made it thru the first 4 rules, for me that’s amazing!
Here are my suckers nominees, in no particular order:
Brenda (no, not the same one, but that gives me an idea!)

Oh how I WANT to have purple hair! (again)
Ethel, I mean Claremary
Romy (a brand new friend!)
Stella (She purfylles my life!)
Susie (Yes, I can have 2 friends with the same name, even 2 sets of friends with the same names!)
Congrats on your award, i will return for more fun when I can. 😇
