Returning after a wonderful vacation with my family brought me many surprises in my inbox! This is pure VIRTUAL LOVE Heaven!!! Many thanks to all of you who nominated me for these wonderful awards. I am humbled by your kindness.
I cannot say enough about the fantastic blogging community we have here in our WordPress world. Please check out the blogs I have listed and find new friends and interests. Enjoy!
My name is Colleen and I am the insanity of “Silver Threading.” I tell everyone my blog is all about my hair. I am a wife, mother, and grandmother. I have five children, five grandchildren, and two adorable Pomeranians, Sugar and Spice. I was able to retire early so I grabbed the chance! I am living a wonderful life in Pensacola, Florida as a freelance writer and blogger. If you haven’t paid me a visit, please do: SilverThreading.
First in the blogosphere is the “One Lovely Blog Award.”
These are the bloggers who have nominated me:

Lastly, there is the “Black Wolf Blogger Award” from Ronovan Writes.
Here are the writer’s I want to nominate for the Black Wolf Blogger Award:
Usually there are questions that each blogger must answer about themselves and then re-ask of other bloggers per “the rules.” Today I have broken all the rules! There are NO questions.
Instead, give a brief summary of yourselves and your blog and Invite others to participate in the award that you were chosen for like I did in my beginning paragraphs. You certainly can ask questions if you wish to know more about your nominees.
Just have fun!
Thanks for the wonderful visit, I can’t wait to see you all again,

Woah! Thank you Colleen for the nomination for one lovely blog and breaking all the rules too in a fun way. Some love going around I tell you. It’s appreciated. 🙂
Glad you enjoyed. We must spread the love! <3
Inbetween: I love your hair!!!!
Thank you!
Congratulations Colleen! You’re rocking! Many well deserved awards. Way to go!!!
Thank you so much. Kind of embarrassing by the number of them. Goodwill is contagious though so I passed it around 🙂
Nothing to be embarrassed…enjoy and celebrate! Good weekend.
Oh my goodness! I am humbled to be nominated for the Sisterhood of the World Bloggers Award. Not sure how to do this award stuff but I will do my best. Thank you!
Just nominate writers that inspire you. Notify them like I did for you. This is a way for new bloggers to meet other writers 🙂
Well deserved.
Thank you Meredith ♡
Thank you so much! I am so honored and appreciate your kind words and all your encouragement!
Well deserved! Your blog is great!
Wonderful, Colleen. I love all this blog loving as well. It, not money, makes the world go round – that’s my view anyway. Congratulations 🙂
Thank you Hugh. I agree. Some people are bothered by the awards but, I think it is a great way to introduce new bloggers to our community. We have to continue to teach and learn from each other. This is a great way to do it. If new bloggers are looking for followers this is surely a way to do it. 🙂
I so very much agree, along with reading other peoples blogs and leaving likes and comments. Oh and lets not forget the wonderful WordPress 101, 201 and writing courses they run as well. I’m signed up for the 201 course which starts on Monday. Will you be joining or are you taking a break after only just completing the 101 course? I did 101 back in April so I’m ready for 201 now 🙂
Fabulous! I am signed up for 201 as well! I am excited to start again. Glad you will be along for the ride too! 🙂
In which case, I will see you in the Comms room Colleen 🙂
I will look for you Hugh. It should be great fun!
I am humbled and honored by your nomination. As you already know my site is ‘award free’ thus, I will not be accepting it. Even thinking of me for this award is very kind of you. Thank you very much. May all your days be filled with love and laughter, health and happiness. Eddie
Thank you Eddie. Your writing inspires me. I am so happy to have found your lovely blog. Thank you and know that I appreciate your work. Namaste!
My you’ve been busy on the award circuit, Colleen. Congratulations! Thank you for thinking of me and nominating my blog. I had already received The One Lovely Blog Award earlier this month so, I upcycled that post here: https://fromthestickstothebricksandbackagain.wordpress.com/2014/10/18/and-the-nominees-are-2/. See you on the Commons for Blogging 201.
Thank you. See you in class!
First of all, congrats on your awards, Colleen! And much deserved ones! *hugs*
Thanks so very much for the nomination. I feel so honored and happy with your Sisterhood of the World Bloggers Award, but I have to decline. Under my ‘About’ section I wrote this:
On awards: I’m so sorry, but I can’t accept awards. Nominations really do mean a LOT to me. But all of us bloggers, writers, photographers, poets, funny and serious people, we all share our thoughts and creativity – our souls in many cases! – and in my eyes all are equal in that. Thank you kindly for understanding.
Have a lovely weekend, dear.
Thank you for your kind response Marion. I enjoy your writing and blog and I know others do as well. Thank you for being so gracious. <3
