Very Inspiring Bloggers Award
Loaded up this morning to discover that I was nominated for “The Very Inspiring Blogger Award” on Saturday by fellow blogger Angela of Angela’s World of Writing! Thanks enormously Angela for this award.
According to the rules of the award, I’m now responding.
Rules
1) Display the award logo,
2) Link back to the person who nominated you,
3) State 7 things about yourself,
4) Nominate 15 other bloggers for this award and link to them.
7 Things
Thinking of seven things that you may not know about me isn’t too easy. I mean, there’s tons but remembering what I may have divulged is not so simple.
1) I have eclectic tastes in just about everything. That’s always been true as far as music is concerned but has grown over the years in my reading tastes.
2) I am an insomniac, and have been since my early teens. That doesn’t help with creativity, unfortunately, as I’m often verging on total exhaustion.
3) Jenny and I will have been married for 33 years at the end of June this year! We have two sons and a daughter, two grandsons and three granddaughters, plus step-grandchildren.
4) I am disabled, with post polio syndrome, with very limited mobility. I contracted polio when I was 4 years old.
5) Writing has been my ambition since my early teens, with jobs being taken, initially, just to cover until success arrived – I’m still waiting for my big break! LOL!
6) My eldest brother also showed an artistic bent, being an accomplished amateur dramatics actor.
7) I have a deep love of Nature, thanks to my Dad, who opened my eyes to all the wonders as a child.
