These Days Of Mine has received another blog award: The Reader Appreciation Award. This was bestowed upon my blog by my feline friend, Sam, a.k.a. One Spoiled Cat. I think his “mom”, Pam, may have helped just a little. Thanks, Sam and Pam!
This award is different from the usual blog awards, because it recognizes your blog’s top readers (by the number of comments posted).
Here are the rules for this award:
- Award your top 6 bloggers who have commented the most.
- Be thankful.
- You cannot award someone who has already been awarded. And you cannot give the award back to me.
- Don’t forget to tell the bloggers you’ve awarded.
- If you don’t want to pass on this award, that’s okay too.
When I checked my comment stats, this is what I discovered: of my top 7 all-time commenters, my son, Marshall, (who isn’t a blogger) is my top commenter. Maybe I could come up with a special award for him!
Here are my top blogging commenters:
1.) Patti at A New Day Dawns.
2.) Pix at Sweet Days Under The Oaks.
4.) MJ at Emjay And Them
5.) Jill at Chillin’ With Jill
6.) E.C. at Enjoy Creating
Theresa, Adrienne and Charlotte, you three are among my most faithful commenters, but since I don’t think either of you participate in blog awards, I didn’t pass this on to you. Feel free to accept, though!
I appreciate every comment that is posted here on These Days, and I’m glad there’s an award to recognize those who “support” this little writing habit addiction we have. I wish there were a way to recognize my faithful non-blogging readers. I guess THANKS will have to do for now.
these days of mine 
We all appreciate you. You bring a little sunrise – or sunset – into our lives. Congratulations.
Congrats on your newest ‘bling’ as Sammy would say!
I love to start my day out here in your neighborhood. Thank you Dianna. Marshall has a great mentor in his mother…maybe he’ll start one now that he has an award to post.
Dianna, Thank you again. This has been so much fun to thank the readers. What a nice idea. PS I have a jar of virtual candy canes at my site. Please help yourself to one.
Good Morning Dianna! Congratulations on your new award. Thank you for thinking of me but I am going to decline. Isobel from IsobelandCat’s blog has already given me this award and I have yet to do anything with it. I am behind on about 3 or 4 awards and am sorry for that. I think that I will opt out of awards since I am so befuddled by them, have procrastination disease and can’t stick to the rules and pass them on properly. “All I wanna do” is read lovely blogs like yours and comment 🙂
Congratulations on your new award. Truly deserved. I love coming to read your blog. 🙂
Sam and I love your comments on his blog AND enjoy ever so much reading your blog every day…..you really DO bring sunshine to so many people and I think the bright yellow flower on the award logo is PERFECT for you!!
Pam and Sam
How neat!
I agree with Renee … I love to start my day with your bright blog — no wonder your CB handle was “Sunshine.”
Cheers! MJ
Congratulations on yet another deserved award. You do bring sunshine on our days.
Thank you Dianna! We can always count on beautiful photos and interesting stories when we look early in the morning. And — I love the posts by Sundae!
This is so sweet. I’m rather embarrased to be awarded for reading your wonderful blog but I thank you so much for passing it on to me! I always enjoy my visits here. Thank you, Dianna!
You’re been a great source of support by leaving your rays of sunshine on many blogs including mine. Congratulations!

p.s. It’s plain to see this is the type of person you are in your daily non-internet life too. 😉
I guess JR will have to build you a “blog award” cabinet. You are a gifted writer and photographer and you deserve all the awards.
oh, thanks for the shout out, though! i’d have to install a widget to figure out most frequent commenters on my blog, otherwise, i wouldn’t have any idea!
i like the idea of thanking folks for their loyalty, though. i do appreciate you as well!!!
Way to go Marshall! Such a high compliment, mama! Love waking up to your posts every day ~ and I feel VERY rewarded every time you leave me a comment! I’ve enjoyed gettin awards – think I missed the part about putting them up on the blog. My blog background is so “busy” cause it’s that photo, so I don’t like adding too much to it! Anyhow – bottom line is I’m just glad we found each other in blog land!
Congrats! .. again!! I usually come here first when I start my internet rounds each day. And even though I don’t have a “blog wall,” for the award, I’m happy to be the top commenter!! Keep ’em comin’ !!
There is always sunshine on your blog, even on cloudy days, making it a nice place to perch for awhile. 🙂 Marshall needs to start a blog to keep us updated on his feline family/friends.
Congrats on your award, Dianna. We always look forward to your beautiful photos and your words, too!
Congrats on your award, Dianna! I just came over from Jill’s blog. Merry Christmas!!!
Yay-congrats Dianna!! You definitely need to have an award for Marshall 🙂
