One Lovely Blog Award

OK... so up until this morning, I had no idea that such an award existed, but I have been given a 'One Lovely Blog Award' by  Ali @ Not All Dreams Are Free. From what I understand, this is an award given by other bloggers who enjoy and appreciate your blog, so Thank you so much Ali, It is so nice to know that my words are appreciated by others.

So... I'm told on accepting this award... I have to link the person who gave it to me (done that), I have to give 7 random facts about myself, I then have to list 15 blogs that I enjoy reading and attach the 'One Lovely Blog Award' pic to my page.


Ok... So Seven Random Facts About Me...

1. I LOVE pink, yep... I'm a real girly girl and love just about anything that is pink... I even make the staff at work wear bright pink... pink, pink, pink... its gotta be pink :-)

2. I love hand crafts, knitting, crocheting, embroidery, latch-hooking, lace making, I love them all and find it a lovely way to relax after a long day at work.

3. I bake when I'm upset or mad... If Patrick comes home and the Kenwood is about to burn out, he knows it's probably best if he leaves me alone for a while...... on the upside though... he does get some nice homebaked treats... later... when I'm feeling better :-)

4. I love animals, I currently have 4 cats, 2 Norwegian Elkhounds and a Bichon Frise, The Bichon is my baby and I got her after I miscarried last May... she rules the house... she is definitely the boss.

5. I managed to dye my Bichon PINK (it actually was an accident), I'd gotten her a new collar, pink of course and didnt take it off when I was giving her a bath and of course the dye ran into her lovely white fur, she had a pink mane for about a month...!!!

6. My name is Anne-Marie and I am an Apple Addict (no, not the fruit, although I like those too), I love Apple products, iPads, iPods, iPhones. I have no idea how I managed to function before I had them.

7. I love Handbags, designer handbags are my weakness. Louis Vuitton store is my idea of heaven.

Fifteen Blogs that I enjoy reading and want to pass this award on to;

1. Kat's IVF Journey
2. Our Journey through ICSI & PGD
3. The 2 Week Wait
4. In The Name Of The Father
5. The Luckiest: No Matter What!
6. Silent Hope
7. The Years Of Trying To Conceive Tears

  1. What a great blog, truly inspiring.
    It's so great to see you've gone into detail, and aren't afraid to be honest and open. The IVF process can be a highly emotional one, and does not always have a happy ending, so it's refreshing to see someone speak so openly about it.
    This would be an invaluable resource for anyone looking to take the first step on the IVF journey, and because it's your personal journey, this will really help those people associate, and could convince them to start the journey

    Inspiring words.

    1. Thank you very much, it really is lovely to get a comm nt like that. I guess I write from the heart and I know that sometimes what I write can be very difficult to read, but it helps me a lot to be able to write about my experiences and from the response I get, I think it really helps others too and that truly does make it all so worth it.

      Thank you so much for your lovely comment,

      Anne-Marie xx
