I was given this award by Who Doesn't Love Coupons? Well it was the end of last month but I totally forgot until last week so that's why I am sooo tardy posting about it. It took me a whole week to think of 7 interesting facts about myself as well!lol
I hope my delay doesn't mean I am a bad blogger or something.
That's just me.....all scatter brained sometimes. ;-)
I know this will surprise ya'll (no, not really I hear you say)but this is my very first bloggy award!
Yes, Sluggy's been faithfully blogging on an almost daily basis for over a year now and nada in the awards category until now. Sluggy obviously doesn't run in the right blogging circles it seems.
Nope....no awards for being a top frugal blog, a funny blog & no awards for being a 'pretty' blog.
So I am thrilled as pie(Mmmm....piiiiiiieeeee!)to receive this award.
The rules for accepting this award:
1.Thank the person that gave you the award...ok, "Thanks Jenn", she said as she waved wildly.
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!
Here are the 7 things about me:
1.) I dropped out of graduate school at the NC School of the Arts.
2.) I sang on the radio with the Chorus of The US Naval Academy.
3.) I have a confirmed ancestor who fought in the Revolutionary War.
4.) I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up.
5.) I have been a natural redhead, brunette and was born with a full head of black hair.
6.) Oprah Winfrey gave the commencement speech at my college graduation(back before she was "Oprah" & just a news reporter in Baltimore).
7.) I can touch my nose with my tongue(without using my hands to push either one toward the other).....try it, it ain't easy!
Here are 13 blogs I have discovered and love. There are so many others that I read so this list is NOT exhaustive. Don't feel bad if I read ya and you aren't on the list here. These are just the blogs my pea-brain could think of at this moment.....
