One Lovely Blog Award

A great big thank you to Karen at http://fullcupthirstyspirit.wordpress.com/ for the honour.  It was a thrill to receive this award.  As per the rules of this award, I have to:

• share who gave me the award and link back to their blog
• write down 7 random facts about myself
• give the award to 15 other bloggers and let them know that they have won
• pop the award on my blog

7 Random Facts about myself:

• I am a first generation Canadian – my parents were both Italian immigrants.
• I love books and shows about vampires but I just couldn’t finish reading the Twilight series because the writing was so poor.
• Shoes are my weakness – (I don’t need to share how many pairs I own).
• I need to make my bedroom an iPad free zone because I can spend hours reading blogs, social media sites etc.
• I played soccer for the first time in my 40′s with a team of mostly 20 year-olds and almost died several times – no really! I bounced and rolled across the soccer field when a “child” on the other team checked me and got several soccer balls square in the face….What was I thinking?
• I feel like I am still a 20-something year old except when I have difficulty getting out of my chair, or bed, or the car because my body creaks and I pass a mirror and realize I have to visit my hairstylist more often to cover the shocking patch of grey hair on the top of my head.
• My guilty pleasure – watching The Young and the Restless, which I watched for over 35 years.
