Thanks and awards

First off, a BIG thank you to Kathleen Doyle for surprising me
on Monday with a Random Act of Kindness.
You really made my day.
And that's hard to do on a Monday!
The Random Act of Kindness Blitz is a fabulous idea started by
Becca and Angela at The Bookshelf Muse to commemorate the
release of their book The Emotion Thesaurus.
Come pop by my blog tomorrow for my contribution to the Blitz.

I received the Beautiful Blogger Award from the wonderful Sheri L. Swift.
Thank you for passing it on to me.
 Another thank you goes to the cool E.J. Wesley for passing on
the No Strings Attached - Real Trooper award.

Both awards ask you to share some random facts about yourself. (The Trooper Award also has some specific questions, but I will spare you an overly long post!)

Ten random facts about me:
1) I enjoy doing laundry. It's the clean scent and the warmth of clothes fresh out of the dryer.
2) I've been engaged twice, but not to my husband.
3) My husband and I had been together for ten years before we decided to get married in Las Vegas by Elvis.
4) When I get a chance, I love watching cheesy SyFy movies.
5) I have a fear of speaking in front of groups of people, but I force myself to do it whenever I have the opportunity.
6) I have a sonic screwdriver on my desk.
7) I have my own set of special game dice.
8) I set my son's toys up in fun little scenes, so that the next time he comes upon them, he'll wonder what they've been doing.
9) I took karate in high school, and I was two belts away from my black.
10) I cannot imagine life without writing.

I'm not going to nominate anyone, because I want to share these awesome awards with you all. Take one or both if you wish. You're such fabulous people. You deserve them.
