7 reasons to be cheerful.......

Thank you to lovely cuckoo and lovely sarah for the blog awards :)
so as I've already done 7 facts about myself here I thought I would do
7 things that are making me smile today :) :) :)


#1 Deerdre the deer head patiently awaiting her makeover :)

#2 busyness.... lots of sewing going on :)

#3 cute glasses from the charity shop :)

#4 managing to stick this lady's head back on :)

#5 newly painted front door :)

#6 much loved little friends on the washing line :)

#7 home town rock :)

#8 knowing that I can't count and that we found this for £3 :)

I would like to pass this award onto a shiny new blog which I have just discovered
and with the bestest name...pollywallydoodle

whats making you smile today?? happy Monday *4th July*

note added.....as lovely koralee has pointed out 'deerdre' is in fact a he!! oooops any new boy names gratefully received :)

The post about awards......

No sorry not those ones.... no red carpet and designer dresses here, although I did do a little skip and a squeal when I heard Colin had won one,....... no these are blog awards, two of which I'm afraid were awarded last November..( I did do a post all about this at the time but it was very 'linky' and I made a big mess)

So thankyou so much to these three lovely girls who sent me these awards :) and apologies for the .....long wait..........

So here are my seven things about me

* I got married in Doc Martins ( very very pretty silver blue brocade ones to match my dress though)

* When I was sixteen I met Morrissey, I kissed his hand, he threw some flowers at me and he wrote I love you on my autograph



* I always read the last page of a book first......


* Steve Martin once left a message on our answer phone, we wanted to keep it on forever but we had a power cut and it got wiped off


* I can't say the word Copacabana.... (luckily not a word you have to say that much but you'd be surprised how often I find myself 'trying' to say it


* I'm teaching myself how to play the accordion, its not going too well up to now, but I'm hopeful.


* I have a memory like a goldfish...., I can watch a whole film before realising I've seen it before.

I should now pass this on to 7 other lovely blogs but I fear my 'linky mess' may rear its ugly head again... ...so I'm going to say that I think there are lots of wonderful blogs out there, all very worthy of these awards and I thank you all for the lovely comments you leave and the smiles you bring me (hope thats ok)

WOW it really is like the oscars over here today, I just need to get my hands on one of those $75.000 goody bags :)


Have a wonderful week
