***Drumroll*** - And The Winner Is... ME!

The TOTALLY wonderful and handsome Gregory J from such blogs as Day to Day, and Living My Life, Whatever, has selected little ol' me as the recipient of the Beautiful Blogger Award.

Yup. Me. Who'd a thunk it?

♪♪♪Go me, go me, go go, go me!♪♪♪ *insert silly dance here*

You like me. You really like me! No, really... You like me?

My FIRST award.

(Quiet down there people, you, in the back, shhhhhhh!)

NOW:

"I'd like to thank the Academy... My Parents... I love you MUM! Tomika... my brothers... my cats... the creepy guy down the street who looks at me through an inch of curtain every time I walk past... my chemist... and who could forget the team in hair and make-up *snif* I'd be NOTHING without you... I love you guys!!!"

"And I'd like to send a special THANK YOU out there to Gregory J, without whom I would not have this here golden statuette 200x200px virtual award. Thanks darl!"

*cue music...*

Okay, so apparently there are some rules and whatnot that I must now follow... Semantics I say! But follow I shall. A good girl I am. (Did I seriously just sound like Yoda?)

Here they are:

1. Thank the person who gave you this award.
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. Pass the award along to 15 8 bloggers who you have recently discovered and who you think are fantastic!
4. Contact the bloggers you've picked and let them know about the award.

SO:

1.     Done and I mean DONE!

2.     Seven things huh? Hmm...

• I am practically a recluse. If I am not with Tomika doing something I spend most of my days inside. Mostly on this damn PC!
• When I had my Breast Reduction in early June 2009, I had a terrible car accident 10 days afterwards and my stitches burst open leaving me with horrific scars.
• My biggest weakness is ebay.
• I read. A lot. Like, A LOT a lot.
• My favourite guilty TV show is Charmed. I was DEVASTATED when it finished up. (I still watch the DVD's over and over... Shhh.)
• I am a fantastic cook.
• I can sing.
• I used to be a bloody good dancer.
• I HAVE to do things in groups of 5. (Hence my cheating and BOTH these lists being 10 things long.)
• I am a *little bit* of an X-Box junkie. 

3.     Do unto others... With pleasure!

• Amethyst Moon over at Life, Music and Laughter deserves this. She always has a song in her heart.
• Mommy Drinks Because You Cry, CONSTANTLY makes me laugh, unless she makes me cry, or feel bad, in a good way. It's ok because I get it. We are two Motherless Daughters, working it out as we go along.
• Tammy at A Red Neck Diva's Kitchen always has something yummy on the menu.
• The Farm Chicky in the Boondocks of Farmers Wife is sharp as a tack. Don't let those overalls and the straw in her hair fool you!
• JadeLD from Now That I'm No Longer 25 has some AMAZING photos to share. She is one talented woman.
• True Confessions of a Single Mother features the lovely Raine. She is blunt, to the point, honest, and I love her.
• Kristi from Live and Love... Out Loud is just... Beautiful. Nuff said.
• If you are looking for blurting out laughing at the PC screen so that the people around you think you're crazy, you HAVE to visit parentingBYdummies. I have SOO much to learn...
• Shari is a 'perimenopausal parent of preschoolers and an epileptic pug', you can find her at Earth Mother. Watch out though, she's not afraid to get dusty.
• And last but certainly NOT least, I am going to give this award to the beautiful and inspiring Carly from Tune Into Radio Carly. She is just......??? I have NO words to describe her courage and strength. 

4.     Contact the bloggers I picked... You mean I ACTUALLY have to talk to these suckers? WelI I guess sacrifices MUST be made in the name of art.

Hey you, yeah you on the list above. Consider yourself STALKED!
