Blog Award

Many thanks to Haley at A Carolina Belle for awarding me with the "Versatile Blogger" award! Be sure to stop by and tell her hello! She's so cute, I know you'll love her!

Here are the rules for the award:

1 - Nominate 15 fellow bloggers or however many of your choosing

2 - Inform the bloggers of their nomination

3 - Share 7 random things about yourself

4 - Thank the blogger who nominated you

5 - Add the Versatile Blog Award picture on your blog post

Here are 7 random facts about me:

1 - I can't keep my room clean for the life of me. One might say I have too many clothes. I just think I'm a girl and I need options. And a bigger closet.

2 - I have red lipstick for Christmas and I'm dying to wear it in public but I don't have the guts. Well, at least not yet!

3 - I sleep in a twin bed. I know this is a bit odd, but in college my room was too small for anything larger. When I moved out, I kind of liked just having a tiny bed. It's cozy and doesn't take so long to warm up the sheets in the winter!

4 - I have pretty bad anxiety. Have y'all heard of anxiety cat? Yeah, some of those describe me completely. I also think I'm sick all the time. This week I thought I had strep throat, psoriasis, and mono. I'm fine though... turns out it was just a sore throat and nothing a little lotion and a nap couldn't fix, thank God!

5 - Speaking of health -- one thing that's entirely true and not made up in my head is I'm allergic to cold. Yep, the cold! I had no idea until after I went to college or I likely wouldn't have chosen the arctic tundra of Boone! Don't believe me? It's called "cold urticaria." Google it!

6 - My voice is pretty high and I sound like a child on the phone. I also get nervous on the phone {anxiety stinks!} and as a result, my voice gets even higher. During my internship when I made phone calls, I had to consciously make an effort to lower my voice so the person on the other end would take me seriously! It's kind of embarrassing, ha!

7 - Today I was driving around noticing all the Christmas tree lots still full of trees. We're talking 75+ trees at each lot with just a few days until Christmas! It makes me really sad that all those trees get thrown away. I know some get donated to shelters and whatnot but it seems wasteful to me. Our mountain house has Christmas trees across the street and you have no idea what goes into growing a tree! Those workers are there sometimes from sun up to sun down and it takes 7-8 years to allow the trees to grow to the ideal size. It makes my heart hurt a little bit to see the trees just dumped. But I guess there are bigger problems in the world... oh well!

And now the fun part! I'm passing this award onto the following blogs:
