Versatile Blogger Award

I forgot about this, and then I remembered it again.  I'm not really sure what it means, but I assume it means I'm doing okay. Well, as far as Tales from a Mother is concerned.  Thanks so much Amanda, even if you're the only person I know who reads my blog on a semi-regular basis, it means a lot to me knowing someone cares enough to take some time out of their busy schedule (and what a schedule it is with Zoey and Eli running around the house).

Seven things about myself.

1.  I generally blog how I would talk
2.  My goal is to lose 64 pounds before next summer
3.  I secretly grade my friend's emails for grammar, punctuation, capitalization, and flow.  It's how I knew I wanted to be either a teacher or an editor.
4.  My favorite desert is banana pudding, closely followed by cherry yum yum
5.  If someone can make me laugh, I pretty much love them (it's not very hard)

6.  Every single one of my all time favorite teachers has been an English teacher
7.  I used to have a thing for math.  Then it divorced me, took the kids, the house, the pets, and didn't pay me alimony.


I don't know any new bloggers unfortunately. I don't surf around the blogger community enough to find any, which is truly sad.  There are tons of wonderfully creative minds out there that I can partake in, and I'm letting that opportunity go to waste.  I'll have to search around tomorrow and see what I can find.

My blog's gotten a lot of new traffic thanks to Amada. O.o


The guidelines I was following:
1. Thank the person who gave you the award by linking back to them in your post.
2. Tell us 7 things about yourself.
3. Award 15 or 16 recently discovered bloggers.
4. Contact those bloggers and let them in on the exciting news!
