I Would Like To Thank...

I received my very first award from Annie @ Annie Weighs!

Here are the rules:
1. Thank the person who gave you the award.
2. Share seven things about yourself.
3. Nominate seven newly discovered blogs.
4. Let your nominees know about the award

Things about Me!
1. My Explorer is named Kevin.
2. I love swimming. I think it makes life better to be able to pretend I'm a mermaid for a little while.
3. I'm really struggling thinking of 7 things to share which is nutso since I can talk anyone's ear off.
4. I love having my own apartment. It's clean and I don't have to clean after anyone else which I really am grateful for.
5. I am often told that I look like Kirstie Alley.
6. My favorite holidays are Thanksgiving and Independence Day because of the same reasons. I get to just hang with my family, have good food and play games.
7. I'm often sung to when I meet older people because they remember the song Carrie Ann by The Hollies. "Hey Carrie Ann, what's your game now can anybody play?"
