Dear Marilyn.com....Awards

Here's where I am proud to display memberships, gifts and awards I have received.

I joined Angels Touching Hearts in September, 2003. Here are a couple of welcome gifts I got from Angel Happy Heart who is Co-Owner of this wonderful on line group. Thank you so much.

HEAVEN'S ANGELS

There's no use being an angel unless you have something to do to earn your angel wings and so each angel belongs to a cloud. I joined the Star Search Cloud and, who knows? I might be visiting your site to invite you to join us. Lady Elina sent me this Star Search plaque and if you would like to become an angel, all you need to do is click on it and it will take you to the application form. Don't forget to say you were sent by "Angel Marilyn" (LOL).

Yippee!!!!! I just received my first set of official Angel Wings. Now when I visit your site to invite you to join Heaven's Angels, I can fly on over instead of walking and tripping all over my angel gown. With my sore knee, the trip was not easy.(L0L)Thanks Angel Donna, I will wear them with pride.

Wow! I am truly blessed! This adorable gift was sent to me from Guardian Angel Donna on April 1st, 2003. Now, it's nice to know that there are angels out there, but when you get a gift from the Head Angel of the Hugs Cloud you know life has got to be great. Thanks Donna, I love it!

Along with the overwhelming number of welcome messages all of Heaven's Angels have left in my guestbook, I have gotten another gift. This wonderful one was sent to me by Guardian Bren. Thanks so much Brenda. It is so cute.

This beautiful award was present to my by the Star Search Cloud from Heaven's Angels. I am so honored to have received this and so grateful.

Wow! What else can I say! First of all I receive the beautiful award above, and then I find that I have been named "Angel of the Week". Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.

This sweet gift was sent to me by Angel Lil Diane on August 25th.On August 22nd, my mother suffered a massive stroke which left her paralyzed, unable to speak, helpless and bedridden. It was an event which was totally unexpected and was understandably devastating to all of the family in view of the fact that up until that day she was totally independent. It was so nice of you Angel Lil Diane to take the time to send this beautiful gift along with your warm wishes. And, it helps so much to know that you care.

This next gift was sent on the same day by Aussie Angel. It is amazing how people with big hearts never miss the opportunity to send loving thoughts when someone is in need. And you are one of those special people, Aussie Angel. Thank you so much.

And this one was sent to me by Angel Tan. Thanks Angel Tan. It is lovely.

This award was sent to me by Brenda for being the Top Recruiter for August, 2003. One thing about Heaven's Angels is that they sure do not let their members feel forgotten. I love you all and thank you so much for this award.

This award is very, very special to me. Although the date shown on it is in the month of September, it was actually sent to me by Guardian Donna on October 5th, 2003. That date will be forever etched on my mind as it is the day that my mother died. My mother got progressively worse after her stroke and when she started to be in obvious unbearable pain, testing was done which revealed she had generalized cancer. She suffered so much until the end and it was heartbreaking to see her have to deal with it especially since she had no way of communicating her suffering to anyone.

And so, although the name on the angel wings is mine, I would like to dedicate them to my mother, for it is she, who on that date received her very own angel wings and went to a place where she would hurt no more. I LOVE YOU MUMMY. Thanks Donna for this most treasured of gifts.

Also on October 5th, Angel Lady Elina nominated me to the Carnation Garden of Heaven's Angels. What a beautiful honor that of all the angels you have picked me. Thank you so much for this beautiful gift Angel Lady Elina.

I HAVE WINGS WEBRING

In August,2003 I became a member of the "I Have Wings" Webring. Below is my membership plaque.

SIMPLY ENCHANTING ANGELS

I became a member of this group in May, 2003 and look forward to getting to know all the members and joining in all the group activities.

New membership plaques were issued in July, 2003 and here is mine.

As part of my membership, I decided to join the Welcoming Committe of this group as well as the PSP Workshop Committee. Here's my membership badge for the Welcoming Committee. My badge for the PSP Workshop committee is on my assignments page.

On the left towards the bottom are gifts by the ton sent from a SEA Secret Angel in July. Well, seems like another Secret Angel has come my way and I am again being showered with gifts. Thank you Secret Angel for these. They are really nice.

On July 22nd, SEA Nursedeb sent me this lovely gift. These wonderful angels are so thoughtful and to you Nurse Deb, I send my heartfelt thanks.

On August 3rd, 2003 Angel Elainna sent me this lovely Unicorn Globe. Thanks to Angel Elainna not only for this gift but also for the suggestion to change my font. Over the next while I will be removing the Lucida Handwriting Font and so Dear Marilyn.com will be seen in plain text. The font file disappeared from my storage files as well as my computer and from what I can see, it is no longer available as a free font. Thanks Angel Elainna both for the beautiful gift as well as the suggestion.

SISTERS WITH STYLE

This is my member banner sent to me by Fae, one of the Founders of Sisters with Style. I am so in love with it. I think the "Sisters of Style" really do have "style" not to mention "class". Thanks Fae.

I also received this Welcoming Gift from Fae . Thanks so much Fae. I am very proud to have become a member of your wonderful group.

THE WEB LEAGUES

I am participating in this on line website competition and won at the Eastern Hemisphere Level in November, 2003. Here is my award which I am very proud to display. Thanks Web Leagues.

And then in December, I won this award at the Taj Mahal Level. Thanks again.

WOMEN OF STRENGTH AND INNER BEAUTY

Back in November, 2002 I knew nothing about web site creation and HTML. It was through WOSIB and particularly designer Kimber that I got this page up and started. I am eternally grateful to Kimber and WOSIB and would love to see every woman who surfs the net have this same opportunity. And so, I joined WOSIB's Diggers Garden. WOSIB is a great sisterhood and there are lots of warm and welcoming women who belong to it. Are you a woman who has a site or would like to have help creating one? Hopefully one day I will visit your site and invite you to join. If you, yourself, would like to become a member, all you have to do is click on my Digger's Card and it will take you right to the application. Or you can email the diggers at diggers@wosib.org. Please don't forget to mention that I referred you.xoxoxoxo

This pretty angel was sent to me on March 11th, 2003 by Marion, a WOSIB Angel. Thanks Marion.
