Thanks Sarcasm Goddess


I’ve been a crappy blogger lately, but even so, the awesomeness that is the Sarcasm Goddess deemed me worthy enough to receive the Kreativ Blogger award. I thank her for (I assume) drinking heavily before deciding on the recipients. Not certain of my chances were she sober. With great power comes great responsibility and as such there are rules involved in accepting this award.

The Rules:
1. Thank and link back to the awarding blog (check)
2. Answer Seven Questions (uncheck)
3. Provide 10 random factoids about yourself (semi check)
4. Hand the award on to 7 deserving others. (check)


Unlike the rebel Sarcasm Goddess I like to follow rules. However, I’m also incredibly lazy and since she didn’t follow the rules and answer the 7 questions I have no idea what the 7 questions are. I suppose I could click a link or two from her blog and figure it out but that would involve effort and motivation, neither of which are hallmarks of my character. Alas, let’s move on to 10 random facts about me.

10 Random Facts

1. I’m the proud  happy driver a brand new mom-mobile minivan (which I haven’t posted picture of yet but really, you’ve seen one you’ve seen them all)

2. I can only whistle by sucking air in, not out. I’m uber talented.

3. I’ve been in the same position at work for 5 years and I’m itching for something better.

4. I’ll be starting master’s classes in the fall. (Ok, so you already know that but 10 factoids is really hard you guys, and I’m only on #4!)

5. I’ve been accused of doing things half-assed but I think that’s a lie.



Ok, now on to the part that everyone has been waiting for. The moment when I reveal who I’m passing the award on to! Drum roll please. Are you sitting appropriately at the edge of your seats? Are you biting your nails? I’m just stalling because I have no idea who I’m picking.

In my own secret order no particular order:


Go forth and prosper

The Versatile Blogger





First, I get highlighted as a favorite blog of one of my favorite bloggers and now I just received the Versatile Blogger award from Jenny from the Sippy Cup Chronicles. My plan to take over the world one blog at a time is finally coming to fruition! (WAHAHAHA)

But seriously, I am truly honored and humbled to be recognized with, and by, some amazing bloggers. When I started blogging 6 months ago I didn’t know what to expect but it certainly wasn’t this. Thank you Jenny for giving me this award! For any of you who have not had the pleasure of reading her blog I highly recommend it. She’s a wealth of information and fun stories. You really need to check her out!

The Rules after accepting the Versatile Blogger Award are:
  • Thank the person who gave you the award and link back to them in your post. 
  • Share 7 things about yourself 
  • Pass this award along to 15 recently discovered blogs. 
7 things about myself:
  1. I love writing lists
  2. I can wear a size 4 shoe in boys. (What? They are much cheaper and fit well. Don’t judge.)
  3. I never take off my wedding ring or digital wrist watch…ever.
  4. On August 14 I will be married for 7 years.
  5. I want to be a photographer and real estate agent when I grow up.
  6. I convinced my parents to inscribe “Only the good die young” on my sisters headstone. A nod to our shared love of Billy Joel.
  7. I play volleyball during lunch (usually twice a week).
Thankfully all of these blogs are newly discovered to me since I’ve only been around for six months. I love reading every one of them (even if it sometimes takes me several days to catch up).  I hope these people are willing to accept the Versatile Blogger award from me. Check them out. (To be fair, I’m not including any from my Paying it Forward post the other day even though they will always be considered Versatile Bloggers to me.)

In no particular order:
  1. Diaries of a Grumpy Grateful Mom
  2. Ridiculously Ever After
  3. McMissis
  4. Chester the Best-er
  5. My Cheap Version of Therapy
  6. Whatcha Talkin Bout Willis
  7. What’s Mine is Yours
  8. Meganithappen
  9. Sitting in a tree
  10. Jones Journal
  11. Carrying a Cat by the Tail
  12. Mama Rants
  13. My Sweet Southern Mess
  14. Just Call me Mommy
  15. A Muddled Mother
