Thank you to Radhika for thinking of me for the Liebster Award!
As I have received this previously, I would like to share Radhika’s post in thanks, and as I love answering questions, I’ll answer them here!
Great questions by the way, Radhika!
- If given a chance, what would you like to change about yourself? I’m not sure I’d want to change any of me. As a 40-something woman, I have grown used to my body, personality and it’s quirks. If I changed any of it, would I still have the life I have now, the life I feel is perfect for me?
- What were you looking for when you started your blog? Absolutely nothing! I didn’t even know what blogging was!
- A movie, book or friend – which one for company when feeling low? Friend, Book, Movie – in that order. My best friends are always at the end of the phone, but being mothers too, they can be unavailable, so I know I’ll always have my books!
- What 3 things do you always carry in your purse/wallet? Money, phone, pen with a notebook.
- Have you ever dreamed of doing something out of your comfort zone? Not really. I think I always strive to go a little further with whatever I do, pushing myself a step further each time, so it feels achievable.
- Do you have any OCD habits (obsessive-compulsive disorder)? I need to know what is planned when we are doing things, and in what order. I can’t not have a plan of action. Funny, since I am such a pantser when it comes to blogging!
- Which do you favor – a white lie or a candid truth? I think both have their place in lives. Sometimes the truth hurts, but it needs to be told, to help a person. Equally, there are situations where revealing a truth may be more harmful, so a white lie works better.
- What freaks you out most? The thought of my loved ones not being with me.
- What is the thing that most irritates you in a person? People who always want to talk about themselves, and seem to have been there, done that, and done it better, no matter what story is being told.
- What does this award mean to you? I am humbled that I was thought of. Any recognition like this touches my heart. ❤

Okay, so I may not be able to totally throw it away, but I do think there are many households who need to check themselves on screen time, and invest in some books…
Seriously, there are families out there with NO BOOKS! By choice too!

Dear Mitch has nominated me for the Mystery Blogger Award.
Thank you so much, Mitch, I am honoured that you think I rock!
I am a little snowed under with things at the moment and have taken part before, so I am sharing your post as a thank you!
I shall, however, answer your questions, because I love a good Q & A session!
Five Questions for my Nominees
- What moment or choice in your past do you wish you could undo? My first choice of frames for my glasses… I looked like an 11-year-old granny!
- Funniest movie/s you ever saw? There are so many… I’ve always loved the old British Humour, pre PC times so the Carry On Films are a must for a giggle! More recently Girls Trip had me cracking up, and Bad Moms!
- Greatest song/s you’ve ever heard? You can’t ask an eclectic music lover like me a question like that! I love so many different songs, I couldn’t possibly choose one! Oh, Okay, I guess one is En Vogue’s Hold On!
- Greatest truth you’ve ever learned? That nothing is more precious than my kids and family. They come first every time.
- What are the last words you want to hear before dying, and/or the first words you want to hear after dying? Before: We love you, we miss you but we’ll be okay. After: Peace at last!
But I Smile Anyway...
