I’ve been nominated by Marixsa from The Endo Zone for the One Lovely Blog Award! You should definitely check out her site if you haven’t already. She’s been through quite a journey and speaks very candidly and honestly and I love it. An especially great read if you suffer from endometriosis. Thank you for the nomination my friend, I’m so sorry for doing this so late.
Here are the Rules:
- Thank the person that nominated you and leave a link to their blog
- Post about the award
- Share seven facts about yourself
- Nominate other people (15 at most)
- Tell your nominees the good news!
Okay, 7 things about me… Oh dear:
- I really love MS Excel. The more I use it the more I love it. And I should be ashamed of this but I work with older colleagues who aren’t as efficient with it as I am and whenever I send them reports with simple Excel tricks they always call me on the phone to praise me and I love it. {embarrassed face}
- My newest obsession is Twitter. I mostly follow SA and US news and politics stuff and some funny ones to keep my sanity. I get stuck in Twitter wormholes for hours and some of the crap on there is frightening but I can’t seem to stop. Frightening.
- I have a confession. I’ve been trying to get back into reading. I was such and avid reader growing up but I’m struggling. Nothing seems to grab me lately. I’m trying “When breath becomes air” and it is draaaagging. Ughhhh. I hope it gets better because I’m almost half way.
- My favourite thing in the world to do is to make people laugh. That’s all.
- Since my father-in-law passed, we’ve been to 3 mediums and I really enjoy the experience every time. Even if we don’t get a reading I enjoy watching other people find a bit of peace. I don’t know yet if I believe it but if they can communicate with the dead, that’s crazy and if they can’t it’s even crazier how they know stuff.
- My husband and I watch entirely too many TV shows. Toooo many.
- On good days something will annoy me and I’ll say something to myself like, wow I’m really lucky that the biggest problem in my life is that my hair dryer doesn’t work properly anymore. And then I say, oh wait, we can’t have kids naturally, and then I’ll laugh at myself as I throw my hairdryer in the freezer… Those are good days.
Okay, I’m going to nominate a few blogs that I’ve recently started following. Have fun ladies, if you decide to join in.
Tales of a 30 Year Old Nothing 
I’d like to suggest two book series: The Paper Magician and Across the Universe. I’ve read all of Paper and the first book of Across and both are excellent!
Oooh, thank you! I just read their blurbs and they sound right up my alley, thank you. Hope you’re doing well! xx
Lol I’m going to follow suit but make an author suggestion – Jody Picoult!!
Oh dear. I’ve read two of hers and she destroys my heart every time. But I do enjoy her. Thank you. xx
Right?! So many emotions but so good!
Yay on #1! I’m a total Excel snob too; my dream job would be creating monster spreadsheets all. day. long. Thanks for taking the blog challenge!
That’s what I do at my job now. I just play on Excel and it makes me so happy lol.
I love that you all love Excel…🤓
Hehe, I knew you would appreciate that :).
yeah sometimes you just have to laugh at infertility as what else can you do?! I keep thinking of how ironic it was that I spent so many years being terrified of getting pregnant and being super careful. Sometimes when little things bug me I think “first world problem” which helps put it into perspective. My hubby and I also watch WAY too many TV shows!
I definitely agree! I am glad that sometimes I can laugh about it.
I love going to mediums too! I’ve been three times, twice to a local medium and once to Maureen Hancock. I even got a reading once, so amazing!! Not from Maureen, but the local lady, and it’s soooo eery. In a good way.
This makes me so happy :). I didn’t want to be the only one lol. I like the local ones with the intimate gatherings. We got readings twice, so eery but so cool.
