For those of you that follow my site, you already know that I’m not very predictable on when I post. That’s right, I admit it, I don’t follow a schedule like most out there. I guess I’m lazy that way, but I do appreciate it when you do check me out when I post!
I have procrastinated even more when receiving an award or winning something on a fellow bloggers site. So today, in an attempt to make up for it, I will be spreading a little love.
Maybe I should do a post on blog etiquette, cuz I could use some, I am a Cowboy you know. 
Milk Breath and Margaritas
I had won a $50 American Express gift card from Milk Breath and Margaritas, actually quite a while ago. I have been following her since, well, since I started blogging really. What I love about this site are all the yummy recipes!
Milk Breath and Margaritas also holds contests and product reviews, and…well, what you need to do is head on over there and find out for yourself! It’s a great parenting blog and she is also involved in PBS’ Sprout TV Band of Bloggers, and is a Relationships Channel Editor for Blissfully Domestic.
Shoveling in a Jo Storm
I had recently won a Paul Mitchell bath set including extra moisturizing lavender mint body wash, shampoo and conditioner from Shoveling in a Jo Storm. Maybe she was trying to say something about Cowboys?
Jo is a writer, I’m talking about a REAL writer, with a novel and everything! Her husband works in the movie industry also. If you’re into writing, movies, special effects…basically anything that is cool you really need to follow the Storm!
The Misadventures in Candyland
I received The Bald Faced Liar Creative Writer Blogger Award from The Misadventures in Candyland recently. What’s REALLY cool about this is…it came from another REAL writer. She’s finished a novel, and I will probably be reading it in the future!
I was truly amazed and honored to receive this from such a creative person herself.
If you like to have fun, you really have to go check out Candyland. This is one of the funnest places I’ve found. Don’t take my word for it though, go check her out sometime!
Ma Whats for Dinner
I just received The Versatile Blogger Award from Ma Whats for Dinner I just recently found Ma Whats for Dinner, and glad I did! If you’re a parent, you will love it over there. If it has to do with parenting, kids, food…the list goes on, she has it.
If you haven’t already, go check her out, I think you’ll like it over there!
Not only are these blogs badassery, The Urban Cowboy finds em sexy as all hell! Check em out now!

I don’t follow a schedule either. Your stories are awesome so I think you can be forgiven- think of it as a pleasant surprise for your readers when we see a new post
Well thank you Skye, and have a great weekend!
I would think the stories you tell take time to think out and write…You keep writing them and I will keep reading them!
Actually, I usually draw a blank, then something will happen, or someone will say something and boom…I busily write for an hour or two and try to publish after hastily proof reading.
…Well, I Certainly wasn’t going to say anything….what a slacker…
Hahahaaa…..You’re doing JUST Fine Big Guy! You’re stories and thoughts are worth waiting for…waiting for….LOLOLOL…
JUST TEASING!!
It’s Friday…can’t help it…
Happy Weekend!!
hughugs
You’re too funny, have fun in rainy Texas while it lasts.
I am probably the most slack when it comes to awards and such!!
Haha, see…we have much in common, friend.
I post every day but if I went any longer than that in between posts I would probably forget I even had a blog
Your stories are always worth the wait.
So glad you do because you got me hooked on whats going on with Duke and his adventures!
Well congrats on all your winnings! I never thought you were a slacker. In fact, I think we’re all guilty of this every now and then. Even now I am always worried I missed announcing an award!
) Hope you have an awesome weekend, Urban Cowboy!
Thanks, and may the weekend be a fun filled one for you as well Michelle!
Cowboy…lazy my ass am worse hahaha…i don’t follow a schedule either just when the mood strikes me is when i write and post so don’t beat yourself up, you ain’t alone
Spacecowgirl~
You intrigue me…never met a Space Cowgirl before.
congrats

Thanks agnes, are you back in the States now?
Congratulations! Those were awesome gifts. I like you love spreading bit. You’re a fine cowboy.
Thanks Ocean Girl, you know you are my favorite exotic, tropical beach blogger buddy!
Congrats on the awards, Urban Cowboy!
I don’t follow a schedule either. Blogging is pure fun for me, so I try to keep it as stress free as possible.
I enjoy your writing very much and look forward to seeing what inspiration pops up on here
Have a fantastic weekend!
Thanks Talon, I really enjoy your writing as well. Your piece today was especially awesome.
I look forward to your blog and check it out every day!
Sometimes I get my hopes UP, and alas, you’ve not blogged…I just go for a second cUP of Redneck Latte!
But I still miss you when you’re not new.
UP
I like me a cup of Redneck Latte in the mornings myself.
There’s supposed to be a schedule????
LOL…not for me, yet anyways.
UC – you are much better at following up on these awards/winnings than I have been. I’m the slacker! Congrats on everything!
I’m also terrible with schedules. Your blog is always enjoyable and a nice break, so I’ll look forward to the posts – whenever they may be
-T
Glad you like it out here, I enjoy my trips out to the Flat Creek Farm!
Cowboy.. Oh yeah? Well there’s always a first time and we’re a rare species (Spacecowgirls) I mean. When you stop by go down the list of my posts there may be things you may like.. Just saying
Howdy Space Cowgirl, I’ve been exploring and will continue.
I don’t have a schedule, either – and I totally stink at the award things.
congrats on yours
Thanks Momma Kiss! I think your flip off Fridays are freaking hilarious!
I do quite like those as well
Don’t really schedule – but there’s usually something I can tell off.
I sorta dig the mystery of it all. Kinda keeps you wanting ya know???
Lots of yummy love,
Ma, What’s for Dinner

Umm…never thought of it that way, I think you’re on to something.
Well, congrats to you on all of your award winnin’ and giveaway winnin’!
Thanks, I never thought I’d actually meet a Mommy of a Monster before, even online. You’re way cool!
Thanks for the heads up! With so many blogs out there it’s easy to miss some great ones!! I’ll head over and check them out!
Right on, I don’t think you will be disappointed.
I decided at some point that I am not required to follow any blog “rules.” It’s simplified my life.
Secret agents have their own rules!
Always fun to spread the blog love. Congrats on winning the gift card!
“All you need is love…”
Beatles just popped into my head.
Congrats on the awards! I’m like you, I like to post when I feel like it, when I feel I have something to say. Don’t ever fret the schedule!
Hope you’re having a great weekend!
Having an awesome weekend, wishing you some awesomeness right back!
Thanks for the comment! I’ve had a whole slew of bad days, so it’s more like “10 down” but things are looking up now!
Impressive collection of “winnings” – I’ve never won anything. I’m always jealous of the people who win iPads and kitchen stand mixers though. Because ya know… I need both of those things!
I’m with ya! Would love to win a iPad, camera, big screen tv, tropical vacation, err…I’m babbling now. Thanks for stopping by Jessica!
NO more about “real writers”. You are a “real writer”. Art doesnt always have to be published in a book. It takes many forms and your writing is outstanding. Congrats on your awards and prizes. I will check out some of these blogs.
Hi christina, they are fantastic writers. You won’t be disappointed.
Cool awards.
I kinda don’t get into the award stuff, meme’s and you’ve been tagged stuff at all.
My blog is just that my blog. My goal is to post Mon-Fri. I do it cause I like showing off my animals, my hobbies, our place and what’s going on in the life of The Japanese Redneck and her Redneck soul mate.
Its a way for our family, friends and internet buddies to keep up with us. I enjoy visiting my blog list and am grateful for the comments that everyone leaves.
Everyone blogs for different reasons. I enjoy your and will enjoy your posts whenever you get around to doing them
….
Have a great day Dude!
Right on! Good to hear you enjoy it here.
I don’t have a schedule for blogging. I used to blog almost daily when the blog was about my youngest child’s last year in high school. Now that she is off to college my life has become boring! So I try to blog something that isn’t too boring once or twice a week. Sometimes not even that! But I love your blog and you can blog whenever you feel like it, I will still be following.
Right on Cheryl, I just wish I could take photographs like you!
I get in moods where I will post just once or twice a week and then other times, I post almost every day. I don’t really feel any pressure either way. I don’t really feel “bad” for not writing because other people will miss me (which probably wouldn’t happen anyway), but I feel more bad for me—I’m missing out on documenting my life.
Great winnings! I haven’t really won anything in awhile, but I don’t enter that often anymore. I used to spend a couple hours a week entering contests and it did pay off more!
Hey kaylen, my writing is pretty random. Sometimes I could do a couple posts a day for a while, then, maybe one every couple days to a week. I don’t really enter many contests, although maybe I should.
So many awards! You deserve each one.
And I think you post regularly – at least, every couple days when I come over and check there’s almost always something new up, so it’s perfect for me!
