The Liebster Award

I would like to thank Deb at  https://onceuponahotflash.wordpress.com for nominating me for the Liebster Award. I’ll be honest, I had to look up what the word meant, because I wasn’t quite sure what to do. I think in the Blogging world (from what I’ve read) it means positive in outlook. So thank you for that compliment and right back at you Deb! I just shared your info about this week’s dates (https://onceuponahotflash.wordpress.com/2015/05/12/our-daily-grateful-post-11/) with one of my classes and they think you are a genius!

Here are the Award rules to follow:

Once you are nominated, make a post thanking and linking the person who nominated you.

– Include the Liebster Award sticker in the post too.

– Nominate 5-10 other bloggers who you feel are worthy of this award. Let them know they have been nominated by commenting on one of their posts. You can also nominate the person who nominated you.

– Ensure all of these bloggers have less than 200 followers.

Here are Deb’s questions:

It was difficult to nominate only 8 bloggers out of the extraordinary blogs I have sampled here and let me say there is no pressure here if don’t wish to participate. And if you’ve already been nominated and don’t want to go through all these questions again, I understand! Some of you I could not tell how many followers you have so if you have a zillion…please forgive my trespass.
