Wow!

That’s the best I can come up with today.  I am astonished by the response my last post, Desperate to Stop the Pain, created.  It was by far the most difficult one I’ve written and by far seemed to touch people the most.  Thank you to all who shared it, took the time to comment on it, and for your amazing support.  I am incredulous and grateful.

I was also nominated for the “One Lovely Blog Award” this week.  I’m delighted and flattered, and so excited to have the opportunity to pay it forward!

Rules of accepting the award are to acknowledge who nominated me, tell 7 things about myself, and nominate 15 other bloggers.

A big thank you to optimisticgladness over at Deep and Wonderful Thoughts  who kindly nominated me.  Her blog focuses on “parenting, spirituality and life.”  Please head over for a visit!

Seven Things About Myself

  1. I love surprises!
  2. I dream of getting a stamp in my passport
  3. I got my student pilot license before my driver’s permit
  4. I’m still afraid of spiders
  5. I wish I had a groove like Cheryl Burke on Dancing with the Stars
  6. My favorite food is anything my husband cooks (especially on the grill!)
  7. Dogs melt my  heart

I’m happy to nominate the following blogs for the “One Lovely Blog Award”
