The Lonely Goatherd Award

If you are just now joining the discussion of goats and goatherds, you might want to read yester-day's post. Today I would like to give Kristin Berkey-Abbott not only the Random Coinciday Award, which she requested, but also the Got Me Giggling Award, the Not a Good Goatherd Award, and the coveted Lonely Goatherd Award. The prize is not this sweatshirt. (But you can get your own goatherd shirt at Zazzle!)

Nancy Ruder, aka Collagemama, receives both the I'm My Own Grandpa and the I'm My Own Goatherd awards.

And Bob Ryder, of Pawsitive Transformations, receives the Herding Your Own Goat Award, the I'm My Own Pastor Award, the I'll Train Your Goat Award, the I Got My Own Goat Award, and the I've Got Your Goatherd's Back Award.

I saw the full white round goatcheese of a moon this morning, and that's enough of that.

Bob will be so proud - and thanks for the PT plug!

I hope he'll spring for the shirt! And I look forward to him yodeling in church sometime soon.

Collagemama said...

I am thrilled and honored and will post some goats soon, perhaps after an adult beverage.

Kathleen said...

We have so much fun!

Wait a minute--to win the the Lonely Goatherd award, you don't even have to be able to yodel?

Yodalady, yodalady, yodalayeehoo!

Kathleen said...

Seana, you win the Not Very Lonely Yodeler Award.

seana graham said...

I am yodeling for joy!

Kristin Berkey-Abbott said...

I, too, can yodel (most often when listening to yodelers of old, like Hank Williams--the first, not the second or third), but am nowhere near good enough for an award.

But you've given me 3 awards of the non-yodeling variety! I thought of goats all yesterday and smiled and had a better day at work because of it. Thanks!

Kathleen said...

Well, I think you should get the Yodel At Work Award, Kristin!

Hmm, yodeling might have helped Bob with that manager, too. So he gets the Remember to Yodel at Work Award and the Get the Goat of Your Better Half Award.

Goatherders of the world arise. You are being infiltrated by the Normalites and the Bloggers.

Kathleen said...

Ted, can you yodel?

ted tingley said...

Only if I'm stranded in te Alps.

Kathleen said...

Then you get the Stranded Yodeler Award!
