Wow! Another Award!

I could get used to this!  Nathanael over to This Is How It Feels gave me another award.  If he wasn't gay, I'd think he had a crush on me.  We've been mutual blog buddies for a while now, but this was another nice surprise.  You know, one of these days I'm going to have to give him an award.  Maybe a "You're Good For My Blogging Ego" award or something along those lines.

Of course, as with any blog award, this one has some rules:

1. Post ten things that make you happy
2. Pass it on to ten other bloggers

Ten things that make Gun Diva happy: (in no certain order.  Well, except maybe for the first one)

• RockCrawlinChef - otherwise I wouldn't have married him
• Family - and I've got lots of it
• Estes - the equine love of my life
• Books - can't imagine life without them; they are the world's cheapest vacation
• Shooting - there's nothing quite as empowering as a controlled explosion
• Godiva Dark Chocolate with Raspberries - Glenna, you're still in trouble for introducing me to those!
• Fried Ice Cream
• Jimmy Buffett - another cheap vacation
• Swinging from the chandelier
• My girls - there's so much I wouldn't have been able to make it through without them.

Ten bloggers: (again, in no certain order)

• Damzee at Living In Distress.  C'mon, how can you not love a story about Damsel (the character's name) living in Distress (the city)?
• Mel at Boots and Saddles .  I'm not an endurance rider.  In fact, I know nothing about it, but I'm learning a lot from Mel.  Her mare Farley looks a bit like my Estes and sounds like she's got the same attitude, too.
• Sally at Environmental Arts and Faerie Houses.  I love her work.  Whenever I'm having a bad day, I just hop on over to her blog for a quick fix.
• Meg at Fuzzle Me Please.  She's a fellow WriMo, who is also a horse person.  I love reading her exploits with her horses.
• Little Farm. Growing.  Boyles Family Farm is a local family trying to eek out a living as new (been at it less than a year) farmers.  I love reading about their trials and successes.
• MJ at Tetanus Tomato.  I love her sense of humor.
• K. Erickson at Preachers and Horse Thieves.  His wickedness reared its hilarious head with his Tiger posts.
• Keep Smiling Smileyfreak!  I must need a lot of laughter in my life, because I keep coming back to the blogs that crack. me. up.  This is one of them.
• JennyMac at Let's Have A Cocktail...  So I'm cheating with this one.  I stole her from Nathanael, but, damn, the woman's hysterical.
• Jessica at Rome Photo Blog.  I love Italy and this lucky girl gets to live there.  And she's a talented photographer to boot.

Whew, that was tough.  Mostly because ole Tink (Nathanael) and I obviously share the same sense of humor, so it's hard to find blogs that he hasn't already given an award to.  Only one duplicate.  Not too bad.
