Honest Scrap Award

I can't believe it.

I won my first blog award, the Honest Scrap Award. To be honest, this is my first award ever. I recieved this award from Tuck of MY LIFE WITH TINNITUS, a honest, vunerable, yet entertaining blog about the journey of one man and the struggles he encounters because of tinnitus. Please check it out sometime and leave a comment or two.

You may be wondering what the Honest Scrap Award is all about, so I copied and pasted from Tuck's "The Meaning of This Award":

“This award is bestowed upon a fellow blogger whose blog’s content or design is, in the giver’s opinion, brilliant.”

I am truly honored that someone would think that of LL&L; thank you, Tuck. I've already been encouraged from your writing, through your example of persistence and the courage to write with such honest conviction.

Again, quoting from Tuck’s blog, here are the requirements of the

Honest Scrap Award:

“When accepting this auspicious award, you must write a post bragging about it, including the name of the misguided soul who thinks you deserve such acclaim, and link back to the said person so everyone knows she/he is real. Choose a minimum of seven (7) blogs that you find brilliant in content or design. Or improvise by including bloggers who have no idea who you are because you don’t have seven friends. Show the seven random victims’ names and links and leave a harassing comment informing them that they were prized with Honest Weblog. Well, there’s no prize, but they can keep the nifty icon. List at least ten (10) honest things about yourself. Then pass it on!”
