I was just given this amazing blogger award from Who Doesn’t Love Coupons! Her blog is a really wonderful one, you should definitely check it out.
WOW…I’m touched. I’m flattered. I’m giddy. I would like to thank all who made this possible! (Would you ever guess this is my first award? hee hee) Seriously though, this made my day! Especially coming from such a gorgeous blog. Thank you so much!
Now, to the official stuff:
The rules for accepting this award:
1.Thank the person that gave you the award
2. Pass this award on to 13 bloggers you’ve recently discovered and whom you think are fantastic!
3. Contact the Bloggers you pick to let them know they’ve won.
4. State 7 Things about yourself!
And to follow the rules, here are seven highly interesting (or slightly boring) tidbits about me:
1.)I LOVE to read…it takes me to a new world, and I sometimes forget it’s not reality.
2.)I love sleeping for the same reason. I’m a vivid dreamer, and I LOVE the excitement and magic that comes with dreams.
3.)I just started going to school again after 10 years, and I’m stressed beyond reason, but I LOVE it. It’s so weird to be working my mind in adult ways again…I’m so in the “Sesame Street” mentality with kids, so it’s been good for me.
4.) I LOVE music, all kinds. It makes my soul happy.
5.)I also have an ongoing fear that the brakes in our car will go out. A mechanic mentioned it once, and ever since I worry. Going on the freeway is torture for me.
6.)I HAVE to have a list for just about everything I do….if I go out and get the mail and didn’t have it on my list, I’ll write it on my list just so I can have the satisfaction of crossing it out.
7.)My ultimate dream in life would be to travel to Africa and find a way to provide healthy, sustainable food for the people there.
Here are 13 blogs I have discovered recently and love:
1.)Writing the Waves of Motherhood – Just a feel good happy place blog!
2.)Deeper Shade of Soul – ditto…reading this makes my day, and the design on the blog is SO cute too!
3.)Blue Cricket Design – Okay, you want to be crafty? Check out the wonder woman of making your own stuff.
4.)Saving Toward a Better Life – Great blog with saving ideas! I seriously love this site.
5.)Seeking Sisterhood – A beautiful blog celebrating womanhood!
6.)Navel Gazing at it’s Finest – In need of a good laugh? Here’s where to go.
7.)Tech4Mommies – This blog is so unique, and it’s SO useful for those of us who are technically “un savvy”.
8.)Adopt a ‘Do – This is FULL of CUTE hairdo ideas for girls!
9.)Ink Splasher – Another fun read…just a great place to go when you want to get away.
10.)Designing & Motherhood – SO many great ideas for designing your house and making things!
11.)Prepared Not Scared – This is full of fantastic canning recipes…I LOVE them!
12.)To the Max – A blog about kids with special needs….VERY inspiring! And for me, it hits so close to home:-)
13.)Wonderful Ward Recipes – YUMMY looking recipes, people!!

Thanks for thinking of me! Newly following you too!
I am also a list maker and share that same Sesame Street mentality.
That's awesome that you've gone back to school. Very cool that you hope to travel to Africa one day as part of a humanitarian effort. What a neat experience that would be.
