I am feeling very loved this week.  A big thank you to these two lovely ladies for nominating me for the Kreativ Blogger Award:


Mummy And The Beastie
New Mum Online


These two both have brilliant blogs, so check them out if you haven’t already!



The Rules:
Link to 10 blogs 
Tell these bloggers about the award
Share 10 facts about myself

1.  I am Army Officers Wife.  This means my Husbands job changes every two years and we move around a lot.  Since getting married in 2004 we have lived in Chester, Kingston, Canada, Wolverhampton and Devon

2.  This means I do not hoard things and regularly have clear out

3.  I loved living in Canada, our Daughter has Dual Nationality, so maybe in the future we might move out there…you never know

4.  I am rarely ill

5.  I love travelling.  My ultimate holiday destination has to be the Maldives though.  I have been fortunate to have been three times.  If we could afford it we would go back every year (but we cant!!)

6.  I have leant to dive and have been on several diving holidays.  I love it and have seen a huge variety of fish, octopus, mantra rays, sharks and turtles

7.  I have a fear of dead fish. I am ok when they are alive but seeing them dead gives me the serious creeps oh and the smell makes me vomit!  I threw up once at my Mother-in-laws when she was preparing it for the freezer.  She thought if I didn’t see her do it she wouldn’t notice!

8.  I am vegetarian

9.  I would love to swim with dolphins.  I would prefer to do it in the wild when diving rather than one of those places you can pay to do it

10.  I tried snowboarding in Canada once but would love to have another go at it
