Blog Awards~ Like the Oscars, but not televised

Well, it is about time I got my butt on the the burner and accepted some of the wonderful awards given to me by fellow bloggers. I get so excited when I get one, then promptly forget to forward it. (Hello! ADHD, which, coincidentally is why you may wonder why my stories and/or posts end abruptly or don't go into great detail sometimes. I get bored/distracted/sidetracked and hit publish. However, this said problem does not affect my ability to get moved off topic easily.) 

So, without further ado, I moveth forward. I was given the Kreativ Blogger (must not get sidetracked with a rant about how much I abhor phonetically spelled words. must not) 

This was given to me by a Lovely Bride to Be, whom I may crash her wedding this summer. 

I have some rules I have to follow. I am horrible at following rules, and would renegade on this, but it might not be such a good idea after writing this post. 

1. Link back to Lovely Bride to Be (check her out, she looks seriously good in photos. Nary a shut eye, crooked nose, or stupid line between her eyes that her husband won't let her get botoxed...) 

2. List 7 things you love

3. Link to 7 blogs and then let them know, you know, so they aren't sitting there all unawares. 

Here I go: 

1. I obviously love my family, those testosterone filled boys that I call my loves. Corey, Elijah and Asher bring me joy I have never known. My sister is ok too, but she reads my blog and never comments, so I wrote her out of my will. 

2. Donuts. Yum. Put me in front of a donut case and I will shake like a dog waiting for a treat. I cannot decide which to get. Sprinkles, chocolate covered, glazed, long john with nuts? what if I make the wrong choice? What should I do? Get them all? None? 

3. Peanut Butter. If I could subside on one food only, it would be peanut butter. I don't even need a spoon. I'll just stick my tongue in the jar. (Here is where a freakishly long tongue would come in handy.) 

4. Running, but, you know you knew that was coming. BTW, I did 10.25 miles tonight. You know, because I have decided to go easy on myself. Actually, I think it was good for me. Now, if you can only run a marathon in 24 hours? I'm in. 

5. Reading other people's blogs. As a naturally nosy lady, I love looking into your lives and hearing about you. 

5. Reading. I will read pretty much anything. Put it in front of me and off I go. If I get crabby? My mom tells Corey to go buy me a book to shut me up.

Okay... I am losing interest with myself quickly, so I'll move on. Here are my ladies: 

• A veterinarian. I know. How cool is it to have a bloggy pal that you can ask questions like, "How do you tell a male from a female turtle?" I mean, why google when you have her? 

• Jazzy. She knows me. She knows my love of peanut butter. and if she tells you anything else about me, it is all a lie. 

• Erin. She lives where it is warm, she is funny, and she can jump real high. 

• Anna. She has a beautiful daughter and a great sense of humor. Her daughter has faced many things for a young child and is doing fantastic! 

• Jen, who was almost like my neighbor. You see, she lived in Canada and I live in Minnesota, so we were practically neighbors. And? She even told me that Poutine is not a play on the word routine. It is in fact- actually? I still don't know. 

• Tiffany, who is again just like my neighbor. In fact? She has generously offered to take me shopping in a big Canadian mall. (Patty, shut your mouth. No need to warn her of how I shop.) 

• Ace. She is funny, has cute kids and makes fun of me for living in the Frozen Tunda. What's not to love?
