Greenie, author of Scribbles, Scruples & Stories, sent the Sweet Friends Blog award. I am extremely honored. Of course, there are rules with this, since this is an award that gets passed along.
Rules: Here are the rules: Recipient must post their award on their blog mentioning the person that gave it to them. Then they must pass it on to 10 others & leave a comment on each of their blogs to let them know that they have won. You must also post 10 things that make you happy.
So, I don't follow ten blogs (well, I follow more through my fan fiction blog), but I'll list the ones that I do and hopefully you'll follow them as well.
- A Duchess Cooks in Brooklyn - a great source for recipes and all things food related. Really you can't go wrong.
- Scribbles, Scruples & Stories - musings of a Danish woman (who I will get to meet in a couple of months)
- Olgy's Blog - my Cuban comadre. We are both passionate about all things Cuba and education.
- The Unread Reader - perhaps, the sweetest woman on earth and the loudest cheerleader/supporter.
1) My husband - Even when we argue (which is rare), we can still laugh at ourselves and realize that we are arguing for the dumbest reasons.
2) My family - I wouldn't be here without them.
3) My nephew - He gets his own, because he's just adorable and funny and generally a wonderful child. I hope my little ones turn out like him.
4) My friends - They know how to cheer me up when I'm down, or make me laugh harder when I'm already happy.
5) School - Way back in the day, I was the one that used to LOVE going to school. Now that I am back in school, I realize that I still do. Getting a 44/50 on my first Chemistry exam and a 90 on my Calculus exam helps also.
6) Sleep - Yes, sleep makes me happy. It energizes me everyday, why could anyone be sad about it?
7) My writing - I never knew how therapeutic my writing could be until I started doing it. Oh... and how addictive!
8) Music - It moves my soul, period, paragraph, the end.
9) The Sun - Well, this is fairly obvious. The Sun is warm and inviting, not to mention it gives me a great tan.
10) Rain - Hear me out on this one... Rain is dreary, yes, but you can't deny the fact that on a rainy day you can stay in, curled into your favorite spot, with a good book or a good movie. Sometimes it helps you catch up with things around the house or just makes you spend quality time with your family/friends/significant others. Not to mention that rain means flowers!
So what makes you happy?
