Homeschool Blog Awards ~ Nominations Closed


Nominations for Alasandra's Homeschool Blog Awards are now closed. Since Mother Crone's Homeschool is now offline, I am going to drop it from the adult blogs.

I will start working on getting the polls up, I hope to be finished by November 1st.

      I'd like to nominate Colleen's adult unschooling blog, The New Unschooler. I think I nominated her last year when she was VERY new but if she didn't win then she's eligible again, right? :)
      Also, I honestly see provocative things at Lynn's that I just don't find anywhere else, a very personal blog with its own decidedly not boring voice, so please include Bore Me to Tears too, in the adult blog category?
      JJ

      p.s. Thanks for having Snook in the mix again; Nance and I are glad you've taken this on and so pleased to participate.

      Hi JJ,

      Thanks for nominating me. I'm laughing because you're the second person this month to use the word "provocatory" to describe my blog :D ...So, does this mean that I should lay off the strawberry daiquiris while blogging??

      Thanks also to Alasandra :)
