I’ve Been Tagged

April 16, 2013 by tchistorygal

Before I start, I want to speak my condolences to those in Boston, and my prayers are with you. As I was digging into Ute‘s blog today I found out that I’ve been tagged.  Thanks Ute!  What fun!  The idea is to answer eleven questions set by him and then ask more questions to eleven others. Here are her questions, followed by my questions and the folks I’ve nominated to answer them, and write their own questions and pass them […]

Staycation Time – Virtual Visiting Through All My Blog Friends

February 2, 2013 by tchistorygal

THANK YOU!  THANK YOU!!!  THANK YOU!!! Yes, I’ve reached that point in my blogging life – 300 + posts, 20,000 + visitors, 8 + months of blogging almost every day.  I tried to do this a week or so ago, but just couldn’t stay away.  I am a bona fide bloggaholic according to  Ralph’s definition. So here’s my plan.  I really am going to step back a bit this time.  I’ll have more time to visit your sites, and rethink […]

Awards Made Easy

December 30, 2012 by tchistorygal

If you’ve been blogging regularly and faithfully for more than two or three weeks, you’ve probably received your first award.  This post is primarily for NEW bloggers.  Experienced bloggers don’t always stick by the letter of the Award Laws, but they have developed their own ways to responding to awards.  This is my way. In my opinion, Awards are fun.  Someone took the time to develop them.  They are an invitation from someone who is reaching out and saying, “I […]

Wonderful Team Member Award

December 29, 2012 by tchistorygal

As I happily make this post, I complete my long-overdue responses to the wonderful folks that nominated me for awards.   J.G. Burdette, one of my favorite writers, nominated me for the Wonderful Team Member Readership Award.  I DO deserve this award, particularly from her, because I love to read her articles.  They are more than posts.  She writes beautifully narrated biographies which always include snip-its of little known facts on historic folks.  (Yes, you might guess that I like […]

Comment Competition Ends Midnight Dec. 31, 2012 PST

December 19, 2012 by tchistorygal

Autty Jade has taken up the challenge.  For months she has led the pack for numbers of comments – and numbers of words, too.  Today, her record was broken by Ralph with a total of 55 comments to Autty’s 50.  Autty has vowed that Ralph is not going to beat her, so watch out Ralph!  This girl’s keyboarding fingers move faster than Superman’s when he has a pressing deadline at the Daily Planet, AND Lois Lane is in trouble..  Poor, […]

Thanks The Blazing Trail

Reality Award

November 28, 2012 by tchistorygal

Over a month ago The Blazing Trail honored me with the Reality Award.  I have to be real now.  I apologize for somehow overlooking this honor.  I love awards, so I have no good reason for neglecting this one!  Thank you Blazing Trail! Everyone who gives and receives awards takes the time to review people’s blogs and refer their own readers to new blogs.  It is a great way to promote blog readership and appreciation.  It is the breeding ground for making […]

Thanks Renee!

Liebster Paid Forward

September 20, 2012 by tchistorygal

The amazing Renee has nominated me for the Liebster Award.  I say amazing because of her age and all the many accomplishments she has done in such a short time.  So thanks Renee.  Be sure to take a look at her site.  In my last article about it I followed it backwards for a while several generations, found a fork, and then the fork came back together.  I found out there are many icons for this award, so I’m going […]

Liebster Award

September 14, 2012 by tchistorygal

  Thank you so much Renee at http://reneesrandomblog.wordpress.com/2012/09/14/liebster-award/ for nominating me for this award. I was curious, for some reason, about the start of this award.  So I have begun to trace back to see who passed it to whom, and to learn a bit about those bloggers, and the award. So I am going to keep a record of my tracing for a bit, starting with the person who gave the award to me. http://reneesrandomblog.wordpress.com/2012/09/14/liebster-award/in New Zealand http://wildflowerscout.wordpress.com/ in California  I […]

A Lovely Blog Award

September 10, 2012 by tchistorygal

Thank you Help Me Rhonda http://help-me-rhonda.com/ for nominating me for this award.  Rhonda called this a Piece of Cake Award.  She must have seen that little tiny piece of chocolate cake I ate in the privacy of my own home after my husband went to work and wouldn’t notice.  So now I had my cake, and I’m getting to eat it too, and share with five of my favorites. Here are the Piece of Cake Version rules – thank you Rhonda […]

Awards

July 23, 2012 by tchistorygal

I love awards!  Some people don’t care about them, but when someone nominates me for an award I research other people’s blogs more than just giving them a casual glance, and through the awards I have received I have become blog-friends with several new people.  As I nominate you, know that I have spent some time “camping on your site”, as my blog-friend Russell says. Beautiful Blogger Award Rules ~ There are rules to every blog award.  This one is […]

Thank you so much Seasonsgirl for nominating me for the Inspiring Blog Award.    I didn’t know there were so many awards out there, nor did I ever expect being nominated for one.  I am so honored that this blogging experiment of mine could be considered inspiring – funny in places, maybe, informative – hopefully, a great connecting experience for me – definitely.  So thank you from the bottom of my inspired heart. You can see from the pictures below […]

One Lovely Blog Award

June 19, 2012 by tchistorygal

I feel like I have arrived! Rlcarson , http://randpphotoalbums.wordpress.com/, just nominated my blog for the Lovely Blog Award! Thanks so much! Renee and Pallas have some of the most amazing cloud and sunset pictures ever. Yesterday I had the hardest time writing, and had more readers than any day except the first, and I think most of those readers were me editing. I enjoy R’s blog, and especially his last comment when he nominated me (hehe!) It’s amazing to me […]
