I have been nominated for a Beautiful Blogger award. It feels a bit chain letterish but I am honored nonetheless and am going to play along and see where it leads, mostly because it gives me a chance to reflect on the blogs that I have been reading, why I like them and to thank people for the gifts they have given to me through their writing and photography. I hope that you will scroll down and check some of these blogs out yourself.
Here are the rules for accepting first thank the person who nominated you, second tell 7 things about yourself, and third nominate 15 blogs and let them know. You should also copy the emblem and put it on your page.
- Thank you http://thoughtsandentanglements.wordpress.com/ for nominating my blog for the Beautiful Blogger Award
- Tell 7 things about yourself.. . I love working with people, but also cherish quiet alone time, I adore my dog and feel honored to have such a special soul in my life, gardening – touching plants and putting my hands in the soil is as important to me as breathing, ditto with nature time, I have an overactive responsibility gene, I have a need to move – walk, hike, kayak, swim, yoga, dance . . .
- Nominate 15 other blogs and let them know.

Thank you :). Egypt was wonderful, and I was recovering while I was there, the rest did me the power of good, but my recovery is not as fast or as complete as I would like & that frustrates me!,
