Blogger Appreciation Award

baa

Another new award this week graced my inbox… this time from my amazing blog sis Erika!  Now if you aren’t familiar with Erika’s blog, you need to head over there ASAP! If you think I am positive, you need to read hers!  She is a fountain of positivity, and her posts are truly inspirational! Love ya sis! Thank you so much for nominating me and with such great company! I feel blessed to have the blogily I do on here!

On to the award… The Blogger Appreciation Award.  Touches me to think that someone appreciates my blog, or me! 😛

The Rules of the Award 

(1) Thank the blogger who nominated you, link back to their site –

(2) Use the award image –

(3) Write a paragraph of something positive about yourself –

(4) Nominate and notify as many bloggers as you wish. I

It’s always hard to write something positive about yourself.. you feel like you are almost boasting.  And that is so not what I am about! I totally believe that we all have some form of positivity within us, and different people help that positivity to become visible.

Similarly for me, my family bring out the fierce protectiveness that I have for them inside me. They bring out the love that I have, bubbling over in my heart for them. My friends bring out the loyalty that I have. The children I teach bring out the fun in me. So, yes, there is positivity from me, I am loyal, loving, fun, protective, happy, imaginative, and just generally me!

As for nominations… There are so many bloggers I would love to nominate for this. I appreciate all the bloggers I follow, as well as the ones who follow me.  I always wish I had more time to interact even more with everyone.

Allow me to pass this award on to all my blogily, near and far.  Please feel free to accept this award if you have read this post 🙂

I appreciate, and love each and every one of you, and hope we are all connected, as we are, for many years to come!

 

Spirit Animal Blog Award – A New One For Me!

I wake on the last day of the year 2015, and in my notifications, I am blessed with an award nomination from Susie of Susieshy45. Please if you don’t already, go check Susie’s blog out!

It’s a new, unfamiliar award to me, the Spirit Animal Bog Award!

Rules:

  1. Display the logo… Done!

2. Write a short description about you and what your blog means to you, oh, and if you were an animal, what animal would you be.

3.  Nominate fellow bloggers to pass the award on to.

So, here goes!

I am a 40 year old working mum. A teacher by day, and for the rest of the hours of the day, I am a mum to 2 crazy kids, and wife to a wonderful hubby, a devoted daughter, and daughter-in-law, and part time blogger! My days are packed with so much stuff, yet I feel I have to come to my blogosphere regularly, to have some me time!

I started this blog over a year ago, on a whim, as a friend had started one.  I didn’t know what a blog was to be honest! And as for followers… who would want to follow me if I didn’t even know what a blog was!

Over time, I started to write, about my life, then I rekindled my love for writing, and my creative side woke up! So all in all you get a pretty eclectic mix of things I blog about on here… from my family, and Kids Logic, to Spidey’s Serene Sundays.  Sonu Singh, my fur baby, is a star in his own right on here too! My opinions and memories flow, when they want, and then, when it hits, I can be poetic! I love to take part in certain challenges, like Ronovan’s weekly haiku challenge, and his Friday Fiction Challenge, and there is Matt the Book Blogger’s Flash Fiction Foray challenge too.

And  I have discovered some amazing people on this platform, some who have become a part of my daily life, a real Blogily, as I like to call them!  This blog is a place to relax, be me, and interact with many likeminded people from all over, who I would never have met in real life!

Now if I was an animal, what would I be??!!  I used to say a monkey, but, much as I love them, no.  I think I would like to be a dolphin… free, in the sea, intelligent!  Or maybe a cat… what a life eh!

And I need to nominate some fellow bloggers too!

Erika Kind   My dear blog sis –  an amazingly positive person who has made my blogging experience so special this last year!

Rich – My Pizzalicious Blog bro! He has recently discovered that he is an amazing poet!

Judy My Kentish blog sis who shares the same sense of humour as me, and has some fantastic comical poetry, as well as some great posts that have stemmed from her work in Nursing.

Rob – I am not quite sure how to describe my Leibster Meister, Rib Rob! But what I can say is that if you follow his blog you won’t be disappointed! What started as a weight loss journey, slowly evolved, and you get music, (his own!) and some great thoughtful pieces, as well as some hysterical Tid Bit Tuesday posts!

Syl – now if thoughtful verse is what you are after, then you should check out Syl’s blog. His poems, and words, are inspirational!

I though this would be a quiet evening.. no chance! Not in the world of the Ritu!

I have been baking cakes, for a multiple leaving do we have going on tomorrow, then we had dashed to the shops for some last minute things, and we were writing cars to the kids teachers.  They went to bed, then I was wrapping presents, and all sorts,  and oooh, I had something to unwrap, myself!

Chocolates, a beautifully written card, and a signed book!

Dragon’s Loyalty Award!

I nominated Leanne for this award, and she accepted so graciously, that I have to reblog! She renominates me, and I feel my gratitude for that should be not by rewriting a new acceptance post, but by reblogging this that she wrote, to introduce her blog to a whole new audience! Please check her blog out and give her a follow, she writes an online book, among over things! 😊😊😊
