This is who nominated me just now for this fine award.

This is what this blog is all about

stick person

treading up grassy hill

first drafts under arm

face sweaty

stick person

wee hours calling

waking before alarm

time to write

by Mary Ann Blinkhorn

What else can I say about me? I started out with a passion for songwriting that led to words. Though a late bloomer, I find myself writing every day. I hope to post my new prose and poetry here regularly along with doodles and bits of photography. In addition to this–I have become an aspiring screenwriter and I’m putting hundreds of hours into achieving this goal.

Thank-you so much for this award.

Please my friends. I could not leave this page empty without giving thanks to the one who nominated me. None of you have to comment on this. You have all commented to me before.

http://seriouslyrebecca.wordpress.com; has nominated me for the Blog of The Year, 2012.

I think I will have to sit down for this one; literally step a way, as tears are coming to my eyes. I can not believe I have been nominated so many times. Do you, my friends have any idea how I feel right now? You make me feel so special and loved. My heart is exploding from the caring friends I have made on WordPress.

Rebecca, I just want to say a big thank-you for this wonderful award!

If you have not visited Rebecca’s blog page, now is the time. She is wonderfully upbeat. Here is a segment of her information.

Rebecca Dawn, I am 34 I live in a small northern city in Canada.
I’m outrageous, dramatic, impulsive, unique. I love to write and needed the creative freedom to do so, which is why i started blogging over five years ago. I write about anything and everything.
I would like to see harmony serenity peace and love in the world. One Heart One Love, its a song that should inspire us all.
Spirituality is the most important of my life, it has help me with uncertainty and overcome obstacles that come my way.
I love to laugh, i have a great sense of humor. I find pleasure in the littlest things. however my biggest pet peeve is disorganization! it must be my OCD lol!

There were no rules to follow for this. Although if memory serves me, you are to tell several things about yourself; that others may find interesting.

You are also to nominate others; so they may reap the rewards of this outstanding award.

I have nothing new to say. I think all of you know more about me than I do myself.

I can say this:

I am taking Al to lunch today and to a store to buy a hot wheels car or two.

I am going to cause stink to spread in the facility, if his brand new shirt does not reappear today.

For Christmas baking in my spot in the world, I am baking sugar cookies, decorated in shapes of bells, reindeer, santas, trees. They hopefully will look so good, you will not be able to resist even one!

I am making fudge, peppermint bark, banana bread, among other edibles.

For nominations I would love for these friends to accept and acknowledge this award.

Blog of The Year Award!

Posted on November 27, 2012 by Terry

Ivonne honored me with this wonderful award!

http://ivonnemontijo.wordpress.com

Ivonne is a wonderful woman with a heart of gold! Here is who she is, but make sure to go check out her blog for yourself!!!

Who am I? Hmnn….that is a question that I am always asking myself and that is always evolving and changing.

I have been a professional actress since the age of 17.

I have been clowning around and doing children’s entertainment since the age of 19, my “day job” so to speak.

I ~~am currently getting~~ receieved my M.A. degree in religious studies from CSULB in May 2011.

I decided that at the age of 50 I would start learning how to play the piano and guitar.

My passions are sex-religion-chocolate-the arts- travel and my dog Missy. And now we will add music to that list. Actually music should have always been there as I am a dancer and a dancer must have music.

This blog is where you will find pieces of my soul, my heart, my mind and hopefully my humor……

The ‘rules’ for this award are simple:

1 Select the blog(s) you think deserve the ‘Blog of the Year 2012’ Award

2 Write a blog post and tell us about the blog(s) you have chosen – there’s no minimum or maximum number of blogs required – and ‘present’ them with their award.

3 Please include a link back to this page

4 Let the blog(s) you have chosen know that you have given them this award and share the ‘rules’ with them

5 You can now also join our Facebook group – click ‘like’ on this page ‘Blog of the Year 2012’ Award Facebook group and then you can share your blog with an even wider audience

6 As a winner of the award – please add a link back to the blog that presented you with the award – and then proudly display the award on your blog and sidebar … and start collecting stars…

Yes – that’s right – there are stars to collect!

Unlike other awards which you can only add to your blog once – this award is different!

When you begin you will receive the ‘1 star’ award – and every time you are given the award by another blog – you can add another star!

There are a total of 6 stars to collect.

Which means that you can check out your favorite blogs – and even if they have already been given the award by someone else – you can still bestow it on them again and help them to reach the maximum 6 stars!

I am not going to bore you with repeated words, since I have been nominated already, but I will nominate.

I can not do what I have done in the past in following the rules for this award, but nor can I pretend not to be excited, for receiving this award from Bird.

Bird was the first one to read my blog this past March when I began to write. She was the first reader, the first comment, she gave me my first award, and although she is going through some drama, she always remains a follower to me yet today.

Why don’t you go over to her page and get to know her. You won’t regret it. You can find her at,http://birdmartin.wordpress.com/2012/11/26/blog-of-the-year-2012/#comment-10474

Bird, I want to take this moment to thank you for giving me confidence, to help me stand strong, and to remind me to lean on no one but God when days are filled with sadness. I love ya Bird!!!!!!

I Don’t Want To Appear Crafty

Posted on November 3, 2012 by Terry

I was made aware about an hour ago, that my published photo and my poem are a scam. I replied back to the email.

I understand that I am only honored with a certificate for my poem, and my photo was published. I also understand that if the company wanted to publish my poem, it could have required a certain dollar amount.

At this time in my life, I was grabbing on to some happiness for me. Caring for my brother is hard work, maybe more emotionally than physically, but sill, it is a 24/7 job, which I am doing alone.

I shared with all of you because I got so much joy out of something good, that I didn’t care if I had to purchase the book or not. I won’t be purchasing the book. I am so content, with just knowing they were just giving me an honorable mention with the poem.

My photo is in a book out here in the world, and I did not have to purchase to get it there. Well, anyways, I don’t ever want anyone to think that I would ever try to pull something off that was not true. I was just so darn excited, and had to share……………

Sorry for any misunderstandings on my part.

Hugs to all of my friends. I don’t know what I would do without you!!!!

The Silver Quill Blogger Award

Posted on September 23, 2012 by Terry

http://paulaacton.wordpress.com

Paula nominated me for this beautiful award. Isn’t the image gorgeous?

Paula is so sweet and always places nice comments to my blogs. She has been following my blogs for quite some time. Make sure if you have never read her blogs, to go visit. She is definitely an inspiring author!

There are rules to follow with this as most awards, and the rules for this are.

To pay tribute to the one who nominated you

To answer the following questions.

To nominate five others and let them know.

Questions

1- Do you prefer rhyming or non-rhyming poetry? For me, I prefer rhyming, silly or serious. After all, I grew up reading Dr. Seuss!

2- What’s your favorite Shakespeare Play? Mine is Romeo and Juliet. Every girls dream is to fall in love, but with this play comes much drama, life, and love

3- Who is your favourite author? David Pelzer, very good, every book you do not want to put away, real life, no pretending

4- Name three people who you greatly admire. Lezlie, Jo, Julie

5- What’s your favourite album ever? The Carpenters, any of them, song including Rainy Days And Mondays

6- Which primary color do you most dislike? RED, red looks bad on me since my skin is so red. Red reminds me of anger, bad things, wild things

7- Name a song or a poem that makes you feel emotional. I love music, but the ultimate song that brings many emotions is Just As I Am
