What a whirlwind this month has been so far!  I can’t believe it’s already the halfway point of January.

Of course, this means that I’ll be 30 before I know it.  That’s right, the big day is at the end of the month.  It’ll be an interesting one this year, for a bunch of reasons, and I’ll be glad to kiss the big 3-0 goodbye next year (for other reasons).

Here’s hoping 30 (and 31) are better for me than they were for my mom.  This is something that is going to weigh heavily on my mind for a long time.  I may even try to explain it at some point.

But not right now.  That’s not supposed to be the point of this post.  The point of this post is that holy cow, I can’t believe January’s half gone.  Yep.  That’s it.  That’s the point.

Okay, no it’s not.  Way, way back on the third, the always lovely Tricia Drammeh nominated me for the Super Sweet Blogging Award.  I meant to do a post about it…and then life happened.  Or rather, death happened.  I became consumed with grief for my friend and for those she leaves behind.

So, since things are (relatively) quiet for the moment, I decided to take a minute and thank Tricia for the nomination.  She’s a wonderful lady, and I’m proud to know her.  Her post on this award is here, and you should be sure and check out all the other lovely bloggers she nominated.  I know they’d appreciate it, and you might just make a new friend in the process! 🙂

Mandy Eve Barnett nominated me for this award back in August, and I think I covered it pretty well then.  If you want to find out all about my favorite sweet treats, clicky clicky on ze link!  And if you’d like to participate in this fun award, by all means, do!  All the rules can be found in my earlier post (or on Tricia’s blog or on Mandy’s blog), but don’t worry so much about the rules.  It’s just a bit of fun, really.

And on that note, I suppose I should get back to revising all the templates.  But first, I’ll need to drink ALL THE COFFEE.  Here’s hoping your afternoon is more invigorating than mine! 😀
