Proximidade...

Over the weekend I was surprised by Andrea with this very special Award...Proximidade. This is a very cool Portuguese Award and it means that this blog invests in and believes that blogging makes us close. Proximidade translated to English means vicinity, or neighbourhood. I am so grateful that in Blogland everyone is next door neighbours. Some of my closest neighbours reside across the country in Australia...and across the world, reaching The Netherlands, Ireland, The United States, Italy, England and Estonia to mention some!!!

The meaning of this Award...This blog invests and believes in Proximity...nearness in Space, Time and Relationships. These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggerss aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes for self-aggrandizament! Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propogated.

I happily pass this Award on to 8 Fellow Bloggers...I stop here...too hard to choose...

I thoroughly enjoy reading all the Blogs on my side bar...so in the Spirit that this Award was given to me I will invite all on my page to receive it...okay then...especially Micki and Simone !!! I have nearly daily contact with both these bloggers...sharing our daily comings and goings...latest projects...latest reading material...home life...I feel that I would be able to sit around the kitchen table with these 2 wonderful gals and share some precious moments with them both!!! And including you as well Andrea...and Thank You for thinking of me!!!
