I can barely believe it but I’m a finalist again in this years MAD blog awards. I really thought I didn’t stand a chance as the standards in the blogging world have risen and there are so many great new blogs out there. I almost feel as though I’m in a blogging rut, I don’t have an interesting twist, I’ve never even found my niche. I’m not actually sure where I fit in, but I do know that I love blogging and I’m not ready to give up yet. And that is why I blog, purely out of the love of it. I have my own little space here on the internet and whether anyone comes to read it or not I’ll still keep going.
I’ve been a finalist three times now, the competition is tough and I’ve never expected to win but the more I go on the more I covet that trophy, just to say I did it. Of course it’s a popularity contest, most of blogging is, there are so many blogs out there how could it be anything else. I’ve never really been popular though so how come I get this far? I guess there must be some people out there kind enough to nominate me. Maybe there will be some out there kind enough to vote for me too?
So, the voting is open for about four weeks and you can find the voting form here: Vote in the MAD blog awards 2016

My little blog, Raisie Bay, can be found in the schooldays category if you would like to give me your vote.
Thank you to everyone who helped me to get this far.
I’ve put together this little montage of photos from Raisie Bay from the last year, there have been some good times and so much cake!
This year started badly, but despite what has happened I’m determined to make it as good as last year, in fact even better! Getting to be a finalist in MAD blog awards is just the beginning.
Thank you once again to anyone who takes a minute to nominate and/or vote for every single blog, it really does mean a lot.
