Was I surprised to discover this award or what! It's been a bit hectic around here so this is the first I've had a real chance to get this typed out. I was told to take my pick...Versatile or Stylish. I chose the Versatile Award. Yep...this is me versatile...I am all over the place! :D
–adjective
" capable of or adapted for turning easily from one to another of various tasks, fields of endeavor, etc.: a versatile writer."
–adjective
"characterized by or conforming to style or the fashionable standard; fashionably elegant; smart or chic: She wore a very stylish gown to the inaugural ball."
By accepting this reward I agreed to the following 4 rules:
1. Thank and link back to the person who awarded you this award.
I am honored to receive a Stylish Blogger Award from The cape on the Corner ! Thank you so very much!!
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
...oh where to begin ;)
1. I am divorced mother of 3 grown daughters. I have been with Mr. Touch of Nostalgia....Mr. Bill for almost 9 years now. :)
2. I have 5 grandchildren (2 grandsons and 3 granddaughters) Ranging in age from 15 to 4. Which makes me feel ancient actually writing that out. ;)
3. I was born blonde, then as I grew older it darkened...so we fixed that...I am still blonde with a BUNCH of natural gray hairs. ;)
4. I have lived in Upstate New York for going on 9 years. I was born in Ohio, temporarily lived in Chicago in my youth until my Dad passed away and we moved back to Ohio.
5. I love most anything old. I love the feeling of holding something that has as story to tell.
6. I love gardening. Flower and vegetable. I do not wear gloves when out digging in the dirt planting. I love the feel of the warm dirt in my hands.
7. I am still unsure of myself in this blogging world. I suppose it will come in time. So if you don't see me around it doesn't mean I'm not here, I am usually out here viewing my little heart out. It just means that I'm not sure I have anything worthy of writing at the moment. But I am here... ;)
3. Award 15 recently discovered great bloggers. For those I have given this award to please choose which award (Versatile or Stylish) that you think you are. :)

Thank you again!!

Your welcome. :) I have no idea how to change that 'no reply' I keep thinking I've found what I need to change...but I guess I best start looking out here again. I hate feeling like such a newbie. ;)
