Decoration Day...

Well, at least for my blog.

My award sidebars are very happy today as I'm celebrating the receipt of two very special awards from two very whimsical and nearly always wacky bloggers.

First, ettarose from Sanity on Edge, honored me with this award:


Thank you so much, Etta! It's so pretty and I love green elves maryjane.

Next, Christa, from The Star Celeb, presented me with this cute Bloggy Love Bear.


It's so nice to see a bear that isn't hungry and/or chasing me on the hiking trails in Hawaii or Maine but I'm a little concerned that his eye appears to be missing.

Uh, ReformingGeek?

Yes?

There are no bears in Hawaii.

Are you sure about that?

Yes.

Then what was chasing me on the trail?

Um....maybe it was your shadow.....or a zombie.

Sure. OK. Yeah, right.

Getting back on subject (decorations, remember?), I have to give this bear to three of you. I love you all, of course, so I had Cat draw names. He groomed himself, stuck a sticky paw in the entry basket, puked, and then pulled out the following entries:

• My BBFF, QuirkyLoon from Musings of a Quirky Loon
• Bee from Bee's Musings
• Dizzblnd from Soggy Doggy Bloggy
• Maureen from I'd Rather Be Blogging
  

Yeah. I know. That's four but who's counting?

But wait. There's more. Here's an interesting decoration from a lawn in Winter Harbor, Maine:

The Claw decides who will stay and who will go.

Also, I'm thinking of doing some Halloween decorating around the Geek household. What do you think of the following possibilities?

Outz! Outz! Iz hungries!

YIKES! Is BatKid included?

Yeah. I can see that thing blowing all over the place around here.

It's been raining since I got back from Maine. I'm telling everyone I left the sun on the east coast. I'm starting to gather the animals and the wood for the ark. There will be no bears on my ark, though, 'K?
