The Skanky Leg Update and Awards

Mrs. Crotchety got out the camera, and took a beautiful shot of my leg in all its ooey, gooey splendor. I put in a link so it doesn't hit anyone unexpectedly.

It was worse the other day, but unfortunately, she didn't snap the photo.

The blog did win a couple awards this week, and I am very appreciative.

First, from Skye at Ramblings of a Writer http://www.skyewolfwrittenworks.com/

Skye's blog is well-crafted, and a good read.

Next comes from a blog I discovered recently: Ethan from The Natural State Hawg http://naturalhawg.blogspot.com/
The blog is witty, and the man has a gift for naming cats. The blog is loaded with lessons that should be common sense, but seem lacking in too many folks today.

Now, everyone knows these awards come with all kinds of stipulations, and have so many numbers attached to them, I get confused. And everyone also knows I have stopped passing them out fully because I have received a lot lately. No offense intended, as I do a "Reader's Digest" abbreviated version. So, what I do like to do is use this as an opportunity to showcase some blogs that I have been enjoying lately.
I do read every blog on my blogroll nearly every day, so they already have the Crotchety Seal of Approval. That and 5 bucks will get you a nice coffee at Starbucks. But I will guarantee every one is a good read, or I will refund every penny you paid for my advice.

Don at Beyond Left Field http://beyondleftfield.blogspot.com/ Great satire.

Lauren at Can You Be a Part of My Life http://canubapartofmylife.blogspot.com/ She's smart, she's funny, she's beautiful. The big debate is whether or not she looks like Jenna Fischer from The Office. 'Nuf said.

Rob at Did I Miss Something? Rob writes 4 different blogs, and they are all good.

Lastly, Lisa, the Work at Home Mom http://workathomemomrevolution.blogspot.com/
What a great site. She researches work at home opportunities so parents can stay at home and raise their children.

And finally, ending this jam-packed Monday edition--

Yesterday's "What is it?" No one guessed. I tried to find it in action, but I couldn't. But here's a similar model being used.
