Hi, everybody on this Friday, just two days before the start of a brand new year.
Around here, there's enough sprucing up to put spring cleaning to shame. The housekeeper doesn't like to start a new year "with a mess."
Me, I like to keep things light. I haven't told a joke in awhile. Here's the best of 2011:
A big Texas fat cat (must have been a coon) and a Boston tortie met on a plane headed for Miami. Of course, the big cat wanted to brag about his state. "Texas is in my heart and soul," he boomed. "Our heroes are the bravest men in the world. Did your Boston ever have anyone as brave as Sam Houston?" The tortie thought for a moment and said, "Well, there was Paul Revere." The Texas kitty snorted, "Paul Revere? Isn't he the one who ran for help?"
So, let's see. What happened the last couple of days really blew me away. I received two awards back-to-back! One is the Kreativ Blogger award from my woofie pal in Portland, Oregon. She writes the Sage Chronicles blog which I truly enjoy.
Then, hark! I barely recovered from my surprise at that award when I received another one. The Liebster Award came our way from Andrea and the Celestial Kitties in Ohio. ::blushes:: y'all shouldn't have!
Mercy me! I know the rules are to designate five other bloggers to give the award to which in this case would amount to ten, but honestly, everybody, I've lost track of who's received one and who hasn't. If you feel you want the award to put on your blog, please help yourself, with my blessing.
Hope everyone has a dandy Friday. Our last post for the year will be tomorrow, then we say goodbye to 2011. I wonder what's in store for us in the new year??

Whoa two awards and two jokes. Now that Paul Revere, who I thought had a rock band in the '60s, was warning the British, right? That's what Michelle Bachmann told me.
Congratulations on your TWO awards! What a great way to end the year. Our Mommy is all geared up to clean up the house tomorrow!

Haha Tom you made me chuckle! And good timing as me, the hubby and the kitties have all been curled up on the sofa enjoying 'the History of the USA' series over the last few days, so it was only a few days ago that I learnt who Paul Revere was!
