What a nice surprise to have been nominated for another Mystery Blogger Award. This time it was a very new found blogging friend, The Depth Of My Love, who nominated me for the award and I’d like to thank you so much for this!
A big shout out goes to the creator of this award, Okoto Enigma, who came up with a really nice way of showing appreciation to other bloggers.
So let’s tackle it ๐
The rules:
- Display award on blog
- List rules
- Mention creator of the award & provide link
- Thank the blogger who nominated you and provide a link
- Say three things about yourself
- Nominate 10 to 20 other bloggers
- Notify nominees by commenting on their blog
- Answer five questions from your nominee
- Write five questions for your nominees to answer
- Share your best post
Three things about me:
I like people, I like to be around people and I like to deal with people even if it’s under pressure ๐ Sometimes though I also like my peace and quiet…
The bloggers I would like to nominate are:
All In A Dad’s Work for writing this wonderful birthday post to his wife…
Flying Through Water because it’s just such a wonderful blog…
Anju because this blog is still a mystery to me and I’m yet to discover it but I do like what I saw so far…
Erika Kind because she inspires me all the time…
The Bag Lady for being such a great blogger…
Domestic Diva for explaining why Australia is already great…
HarsH ReaLiTy because he always deserves to be mentioned…
Vanbytheriver for just being such a beautiful person…
I know that I have not nominated 10 bloggers or more but those are the ones that easily came to my mind. Please pay them a visit and check them out. They are sure worth it ๐
5 questions for me:
- What is the dream you most want to achieve?
Looking back on my life without any regrets. - If youโve ever been in love, what was it like? If youโve had your first kiss, what was it like? If not, what is your favorite dessert?
Hahahahaha… how funny is that question?! Awesome… Well, I’ve been in love and still are. I had a first kiss and second and third and so on. I would not say that the first one stuck to me as the most amazing kiss ever but definitely the first kiss with the first person I was truly in love with.What does being in love feel like? Well, I think you can’t narrow it down. And it’s not easy to describe. There is the butterflies in your tummy, there is the heartbeat going up, there is the excitement, the longing. But then there is always a certain calmness. A knowing, a trusting, a belonging. Being in love and the feeling it gives you evolves, so I think, over the time you spend with this special person. It changes. It grows. So if I describe how real love feels to me after having lived for 16 years with my husband it will be very different to what someone will tell you who has just met their partner. I tried to explain what true love feels for me in a post. I still lack words though… ๐
- What do you do when no oneโs watching? (Not in a creepy way ๐
)
Do you really want to know? I don’t really do creepy things or gross things. But I do just get comfortable. I might adjust my bra, might adjust my undies. I might even scratch my rear end… or pick my nose… I might get rid of something that’s stuck in my teeth… and maybe I have a little dance by myself… - What is a really embarrassing moment youโve had?
It happened once on my way back from a long ride out with my horse. We were out for 4 hours, went all the way back and up into one of the amazing valleys in my region. It’s a demanding little ride out for the horses and so sometimes I felt like hopping off and walk a little bit. To stretch my legs but also to give the horse a bit of a rest. And to just cuddle her… I was wearing my favorite jeans. A pair I used for such a long time already. I knew that they were getting thin. When I decided to hop back on the horse there were 3 mountain bikers approaching. All guys. And right when they were next to me and I got up my pants ripped. Just under my right butt cheek… They saw it… They laughed, I laughed too. Nothing they could see as basically it was the start of a pair of hot pants… but it was just the fact that my pants ripped and where they did that made me feel embarrassed. All in all we all had a good laugh about it ๐ - What book that was assigned to you to read by a teacher did you most enjoy reading?
The Perfume by Sรผsskind. It’s an amazing book which I can only recommend. It’s the way it’s written and the story. It just ticks a lot of boxes.
I actually liked the questions and would love for my nominees to answer the same questions as well. In regards to what I think my best posts are I can’t put my finger on any. I really don’t know. I can tell you which ones were the most read ever since I started blogging, if that helps? I left out Picks Of The Week and also my Meet & Greet posts. So here are the all time Top 5 to the date:
– Religion Is Like A Penis
– Like Tom & Jerry
– Feeling Numb
– My Story
– People We’re Meant To Meet
And now it’s all up to you guys. I can’t wait to read your answers ๐
Wow all I can say is that an award means something when you provide the reasoning as well.Congratulations to you too dear and I had a good laugh reading through your answers. Way to go! ๐

I try to live my life without regrets. The way I see it, you can’t change what’s in the past, so you may as well accept it. Sometimes you have to learn things the hard way. But there’s always the present to make amends.

Congrats, Sandra. I know what it’s like doing the things when no one is watching. I wear compression stocking for my swelling left leg. As time goes on during the day, the stocking slipped down, so whenever I had a chance, I slipped my hands in to put it up!!! I haven’t had anytime pants thin enough to get ripped yet, but my favorite pair of jeans are getting thin… Good answers. Wishing you more wards to come!
