Well a surprise BEFORE Christmas
Would you believe it another Open University student, Rosie has nominated me for this….
How lovely is that. Thank you so much Rosie. I enjoy reading Rosie’s blog, not just because she is also an Open University person, but because wears her blog on her sleeve and I admire her honesty in the posts she writes.
For this award, I have to share 10 things that you may not know about me. Then I have to pass the award on to at least six other bloggers.
Ok so here goes. Mmmmm 10 things. I kinda think you probably know quite a lot about me dear reader, but I’ll give it a go.
- I have a small tattoo of a cherry on my hip.
- As a child others kids thought I was strange because liquorice was my sweet of choice – still is.
- When I was pregnant with my son I developed Bells Palsy – which left me with a paralysed left side of my face throughout my pregnancy and I had to wear an eye patch – mine was pink, very trendy – NOT!
- The highest mark I ever achieved from one of my assignments was 97%. I then went on to achieve a distinction in the exam – go mature student!
- OK this is getting quite hard now….. oh I know I’m a Leo.
- I don’t have a bucket list, but one day, I’ve decided I’m going to try to write a book.
- My favourite new toy is my iPhone, except Siri can’t understand my Scottish accent.
- I have a terrible sense of direction and frequently get lost.
- I still cry at school productions, recitals etc – even if I don’t have a child in it (much to the embarrassment of my son).
- I’ve kissed the Blarney Stone in Ireland – to do this you have to climb to the top of the castle and lean backwards over the edge to kiss this stone backwards AND upside down. Having done it though it qualifies me as a chief chatty person.
Ok so that’s me, now on to you guys. In no particular order I would like to nominate the following bloggers to receive the Kreativ Blogger Award….
I’ve Survived and I’m Ready to Fly
So thank you again Rosie – and as for the nominees – go forth and nominate!














Pleasure! It is well deserved!
Aw thank you Rosie.
Love your list! I also do the crying at school events. Well done on your distinction. I read quite a funny article about the Scottish accent problems with Siri and I’ll try to pass it on to you.
Thanks for passing this to me also! I’m so surprised and happy. I’ve no idea how to do anything other than type text yet, so I’m off to get to work on learning!

You’re most welcome. Actually it was the result of receiving an award that forced me to learn how to do links. In the end the only way I was able to figure it out was to find a youtube video of someone showing me how to do it. Good luck and I look forward to reading your list and your nominations.
Congratulations, and what a great present for the holidays!!
) Well-deserved, too, I might add!!
Hey thank you so much
And a heart-felt congratulations to you! Your Award Wall is getting quite colorful!
A tattoo, eh? When did you get that?
Thank you Lorna, it was lovely to receive this. Yep the tattoo is a once only thing. It was a present to myself for my 35th birthday – always wanted one and I love it.
Congratulations ! And the Blarney Stone kissing seems me a terrific thing to do ! Brava!
