Thank you, Everyone!
But as of January 2014, I will be going “awards free.” I simply don’t have the time to devote to them any longer. Thank you for your understanding.

Hi, Maybe you don’t feel like you need yet another blog award, but I nominated you for the WordPress Family Award. It’s for people who support one another in the blogosphere and you’ve certainly done that for me and many others. Thank you. I know you’re busy just now so it’s okay if you decide to skip the added work of receiving it and passing it on. Just know I appreciate you. If you would like it, come get the logo and rules on my site. Jagoda

Thanks, Kourtney! I have to admit, I’m glad they seemed to drop down in frequency this year—not just for me, but everywhere in the blogging community. They’re a great way to help showcase new blogs for readers, but they are a lot of work sometimes. 🙂
