Thank You Mynx!

Today I got a lovely surprise as I logged on to check the posts of one of my favorite bloggers, Mynx of "Dribble." She was my very first follower, and I have really enjoyed getting to know her through her blog.

Anyway, Mynx's post today awarded me a Blog Award and it made me happy. Now, in order to accept the award, I need to list 10 things that I like, and then pass it on to 10 bloggers that I believe deserve to be awarded.

10 Things I Love (In no particular order):

-My Family. They mean the world to me. No one will ever understand me or unconditionally love me more than my family does.

-Reading. I don't have much time for it nowadays, but there are few things in life that will ever give me more enjoyment than picking up a good book and losing myself in it.

-Grandma's House. There are few things in life that are better than a visit to Grandma's house. Surrounded by family, good food, and music. What else can I ask for?

-Chocolate. Ice cream, cookies, candy bars, truffles...you name it. Chocolate makes everything seem just a little bit better.

-Laughing. Especially with my husband. At 1 am. When we're both exhausted and EVERYTHING seems to be completely hilarious.

-Watching Chick Flicks. Whether it's with my dear husband, or my best gal pal that's stuck with me since high school, nothing beats a good Chick Flick night.

-The Feeling I Get When I Accomplish Something. Even if it's something small, I always get a deep sense of satisfaction when I get to cross stuff off my "To Do List".

-That head-to-toe tingly feeling that I get when my husband kisses my eyelids.

-Music. Whether I'm playing it on my guitar, singing with my family, or blasting it on my MP3 player, music will always reach me on a very deep level.

-Hugs. Yes, I am a firm believer in the power of hugs. Sometimes, whether they know it or not, people really do just need a hug.

They are all wonderful in their own way, and I read them all on a regular basis because they make me smile.

I don't know if I'm allowed to "tag back" on Mynx, but I'll make up for it by excusing her from having to pass this on again. :)

Thanks everyone for making my blogging life such a great experience.

  3. CONGRATS! And thanks so much for the award & link!!!! I will try to do it justice.
    P.S. Grandma's house? SO AWESOME. Seriously. She still spoils me, even as an adult...and I love it. Such a great idea for your ten things.

  4. Mynx: I was glad to tag you back, and I would like to see/hear you singing to your iPod sometime. And you should totally see if you can get your hubby to kiss your eyelids. It's oh so nice. :)

    Empress: It was my pleasure to bestow this award upon you. It makes things even better to know that you feel so "bloggy loved". :)

    Nicki: Your blog makes me smile, and therefore you deserve to be awarded. I have no doubts that you will do it full justice. And Grandma's house is SOOO the best thing ever! I'm glad you agree. :)

  5. Aw...thanks for the award. I feel honored, and you made me smile. I will try to deserve it and live up to the standard. But I haven't even found ten blogs I follow. I only have five. I'm so very picky about the blogs I choose to follow. Does this mean I have to go out and find five more? Because it's a delicate process to find the right kind of blog, you know, and it took me this long to find the five I have...I might have to dedicate the entire day of work to finding a blog to award...or I can find an alternative solution. Yes, that is what I will do. I can't rush the blog following.

    Reading and chocolate...ah, the only way to improve either of those is to have a Dr. Pepper while eating chocolate while reading. It's like a vacation...

  6. Chanel: You are very welcome. You deserve it. :)

    Don't worry about going out and finding five more blogs to follow. I think that if you believe your five are worthy of an award, you can just do that, and it will be acceptable in my book. :)

    Have a great day!
