Another Bloggy Award!
I feel a very unusual sensation – if it is not indigestion, I think it must be gratitude.
~Benjamin Disraeli
The other day, Ashley from Raising Brats gave me a very sweet bloggy award. It’s my second on this blog. Woo-hoo!
Thanks girlie… and you really need to make it so those who don’t have a Google account can still post comments on your blog! I’d love to comment on your posts!
Rules for this one:
1. Thank the person who gave you the award.
2. Paste the award on your blog.
3. Link the person who nominated you for the award.
4. Tell 7 interesting things about yourself.
-I got my first horse when I was 5 and started showing when I was 8. I love animals and have even been an animal demonstrator at a zoo!
-One of my Greyhounds, Chase, wears 4 legged pajamas in the winter because he’s always cold.
-I planned our wedding in 5 weeks. It cost less than $3,000 (including the tux rental, my wedding gown and all our rings… including the engagement ring). We had a historic chapel, professional photographer, DJ, catered dinner and everything. I’m frugal like that.
-I made it through college in 3 1/2 years while working full time through it. Even graduated from the Honors College with a 3.7. I’m pretty proud of that.
-I met my husband on the Internet. The first time we met in person, I was flying high on Oxycontin and liquid Lortab (both doctor prescribed) because of a complication of my tonsillectomy. Story to come on our anniversary… March 21st.
-I have worked a job since I was 15 (and full-time since I was 18) and the thought of going on unemployment next month both terrifies me and totally thrills me.
-I have never smoked ANYTHING in my life. Never even thought to try a cigarette let alone anything else. Of course, I’ve never done any sort of drugs, either.
5. Nominate 7 bloggers or less.
I nominate:
A Southern Belle and Her Officer
The Ever-Changing Life of a Military Wife

Thank you so much for the award. And thank you for sharing those facts. You are fabulously frugal!
Oh you’re so sweet!!! Thank you dearie!
I’ve never smoked anything either. It just seems so gross!
Thanks for the award!
I haven’t ever smoked anything either. I often feel very alone in that…lol.
You are amazing for finishing college in 3.5 years. It took me 4.5 with working very very part-time.
Thank you for the sweet award! I can’t wait to hear the full story of the first time you met Huzzy in person.
Thanks for the award! How very sweet
Congrats on your award!
$3000?! You should write a book about that!
This was a good list, and thanks for the award. I gave it back to you. I don’t know if we’re allowed to do that, but I did it anyway.
Lol! Sorry, I meant to change that.
Consider it done
I know you’re going to have a ton of bloggishness to catch up on when you get back, but I thought I’d let you know that I’ve finally gotten ’round to coming up with my seven bits of trivia.
