Proximity - A New Award

My friend Gayle was so nice and sent me this award. "These blogs invest and believe in PROXIMITY - nearness in space, time and relationships! These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers! Deliver this award to eight bloggers, who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award."

Here are the blogs I've chosen:

Darlene's Blog: http://darscraftycreations.blogspot.com/
Heather's Blog: http://creativesolace.blogspot.com/
Carrie's Blog: http://www.pinkadoo.blogspot.com/
