Did I ever tell you how much I love getting Blogging Awards? Well I do! It is so nice when a fellow blogger appreciates me and my blog. I received this Beautiful Blogger Award from Susie Kline of Motherhoot.  Susie is a super sweet lady, with a great blog.  I hope that you all take the time to visit her.

There are two rules that come with this award.  1. Pass it on to seven other Beautiful Bloggers and 2. tell seven things about me.

1. Diana Lee of Somebody Heal Me I really like Diana.  I met her on twitter and have found that I have so much in common with her.  She is a very supportive internet friend.  I enjoy reading her blog and also her tweets.

2. BPD in OKC I do not think this young lady knows how valuable her blog is to me and to others.  The rawness and honesty she displays in her blog is refreshing, painful, and enlightening all at the same time.

3. Voice in Recovery I really admire this blogger.  She is working so hard to bring awareness to the Mental Health Community.  She uses her VOICE daily to bring positive messages to people.  I love how encouraging she is.

4. Wounded Genius This is a great blogger, with an unusual way of blogging.  Go take a look at her blog, you will enjoy it.

5. Lauren Hale of My Postpartum Voice I really like the resource Lauren is providing for women who have either had or are going through Postpartum Depression.  Not to mention she has turned out to be a valuable part of my internet support system.

6. Gayle of Monkey With Glasses has a very thought provoking blog. I enjoy reading what she has written and on more than one occasion she has inspired me to write a post.

7. Chato B Stewart of Mental Health Humor writes one of my favorite blogs.  Mr. Stewart is a very sweet guy who draws his own cartoons about the humor we can find in our Mental Health issues.  Not only does his blog contain great cartoons, he also posts good information and shares some of his story with his readers.  Although I do not think he can post the award on his site, nor follow the rules set out in it, I still wanted to recognize him as a Beautiful Blogger.

Seven Things About Myself

1. My first grandchild is due to be born in February.  My son and daughter-in-law are expecting their first child and I am going to be a grandmother.
2. I love fish.  Not just to eat, but I also enjoy watching them in my aquarium.  They are very relaxing and fun to watch in their little community.
3. When I was growing up I learned how to scuba dive.  I got to go diving in the Cayman Islands, where I was able to go to a depth of a little over 100 feet.
4. I used to get lost a lot when I was a kid.  I even got lost in Amsterdam.
5. I dislike feet.  For some reason I find feet and the thought of feet very gross.  I am always afraid that I will catch some flesh eating germ from someone’s feet.
6. If I could live anywhere in the world, I would love to live in the middle of several acres in Alaska.  I am a hermit at heart and I would enjoy just being able to live that way.
7. The first thing I found attractive about my husband was his butt.  For some reason, I have always thought he had a sexy butt.
