Blog Awards

Wow.

Suzie from Suzie Makes You Up gave me not one, but TWO, blog awards.

Wow.

Thanks doll!

The simple rule the Tell Me About Yourself Award is to share seven things about yourself, and link back to the person who passed you this award!

Be sure to award 5 blogs and drop them a line about it.

1. I am addicted to stupid iphone, ipad and internet games. But I lose interest quickly in individual games.

Currently obsessed with Neopets - which is SO 8 years ago!

[But seriously, add me _misslexi]

2. With the exception of a few select people, I am a lot closer, and feel more comfortable with my blogging friends than people I have known my entire life.

3. I LOVE to read but I can't sit still long enough to do so. The only time I read for longer than 10 minutes is in the car, on the plane, in the bath or at the beach.

4. I don't plan on having children, but if I do, and I have a daughter, her middle name will be Joy.

Same as my Nonna. I despise not having a family link to my name, it was just a name my parents liked. All my siblings have strong family names and they don't care.

5. I have a body pillow. It's a he, and his name is Steve.

Long Story. I didn't name it, and I DO think of it as an inanimate object NOT a person.

6. Although I do name inanimate objects. a lot. My car's name is Mimi.

My iPad is Lulu. Yep, I am weird.

7. It was easier for me to choose 5 blogs to award than it was to think of 7 things that you don't know about me.

And the award(s) go to ...

5. Life; Past, Present & PR

4. Read Cook Shop

3. Lather Rinse Repeat

2. Lashes & Lattes

1. My fav new blog Gem & I which is the love child of Kate and Molly

Add these blogs to your favourites, they are amazeballs. Seriously.

And the award goes to...

WTF? Alex Kerr The Future PR Queen has awarded me with the "Versatile Blogger Award"

Me? Really? I am honoured! Thank you lovely!

So the rules go like this:

1. Thank the person who gave you the award and link back to them in your post;
2. Share 7 things about yourself;
3. Pass the award along to 15 recently discovered blogs (contact them to let them know).

1. My middle name is spelt incorrectly. On my birth certificate. So the pronunciation is off. If you are going to use Primary School rhymes to check spelling of your child's intended name on a birth certificate remember there are exceptions to rules, and exceptions to the exceptions of rules. 

2. My calendar still says it is June; I am strangely okay with this. Until I forget birthdays, which was the downside to deleting Facebook.

3. I don't have a Facebook. I did. I was an addict. It was surprisingly easy to give up.

4. Despite having worn makeup/ had acrylic nails/ dyed hair for at the least the past 10 years, I am actually pretty rubbish when it comes to painting nails, makeup application and choosing hair colours/styles that suit my colouring/face shape. And I write a Beauty-ish Blog? pfft, learning as I go people :)

5. I am so good at time management it's scary. Until I leave the office. Then I lose it. If it's a work thing, I am ridic organised, personal? forget it, whatever.

6. I've watched half the pilot episode of Mad Men. That's it. I liked it. I just haven't found time to watch it  watch all other new stuff first then never get around to it.

7. I didn't get Business Cards made up for ABBW2011 because it still freaks me out to tell people -in real life-  that I have a blog. Everyone who will be there has a blog, I'll be the chick standing there pretending she doesn't know what you are talking about. Yep, I am a little cray cray.

So, now you know seven more useless facts about me, I hereby award the Versatile Blogger Award to
