Thanks Nelly



The fabulous Nelly @ My friends call me Nelly has graciously honoured me with a very unexpected award...Thank you Nelly, you have brightened up my night :)

O.k so I have to tell you 10 things about me...boy, I had trouble last time....so below are 10 things as described by Mr T:
  • I let the kids get away with murder...I don't think so,
  • I talk too much in the car when we are driving to and from work...that's because he doesn't like to talk,
  • I am incredibly funny...o.k. I added that one..hahaha,
  • I am good at crafty sh*t....incredible I know and mind his language..hahaha
He couldn't think of anything else so that rest is from me:
  • I hate yellow cars and clothes,
  • Mozzies (mosquitoes) love me, and have a tendency of biting me on my fingers and face..argh!,
  • I cannot stand flies in the house and have passed it on to the children. Whenever there is a fly, the kids yell, "Mum there's a fly!" and we run frantically around the house trying to locate the fly spray....it's ridiculous.
  • I have a pseudo phobia about sharks and they are always in the back on my mind when swimming in the ocean. Also I would not swim at the beach on our honeymoon at the Port Douglas (QLD) because I was scared of crocodiles and sharks in the water, double whammy...Mr T said there was nothing to worry about but in the taxi on the way from the airport they said that the beach was closed at Cairns because of a crocodile...my point was proven.
  • I have not travelled outside of Australia...travelling to the UK in September,
  • I am turning 40 this year...bluurrr
Now I have to pass the 'Kreativ Blogger' award to ten fabulous bloggers. Ooh this is hard as I love reading all my blog favourites but I have to choose so here we go......in no particular order:
  1. La Maison de Maristella
  2. Vintage and Art
  3. Bayside Rose
  4. An Angel in the Garden
  5. Bord & Butik
  6. Shabby Vintage Junk
  7. Fading Grace
  8. Vintage Retro & Simply Cute Shopping
  9. Crazy House Capers
  10. Vintage Mum
  11. and a little extra one for good luck Serendipity Cafe
These are some of my favourite blogs (including Nelly's) for all different reasons; from vintage to new, thought provoking and meaningful, inspirational and creative...pop on over, you wont regret it, each blog is full to the brim with eye candy and they are incredibly lovely people. If I have not mentioned you, but you visit my blog often, please feel free to take the award for yourselves also.

Have a great night, T
