Yesterday, Paul the author of the ‘Living in Awareness’ blog, nominated me for The Most Versatile Blogger Award.
I was extremely excited and very surprised as I have not been blogging that long! Receiving the VBA is not only humbling it is also a positive affirmation as I sometimes feel blogging is a bit like being a X Factor contestant; whilst I might think my writing is okay, others might be secretly cringing 🙂
Many thanks Paul, this has really made me do a happy dance. Please do check out ‘Resting in Awareness’, it is a beautiful gentle blog with lots of practical information.

- Thank the person who gave them this award, and link to their blog.

Thank you Jennifer 🙂
It took me 17 years to qualify as an interpreter – it’s not a quick process!!
Hi Alex,
Thank you for the nice reference to my blog. Now, you must tell us more about your fascination with Alice Cooper!
~ Paul
Haha 😀
You are most welcome!!
I have liked his music since being a young teenie, and I have seen him in concert on many occasions.
I think he has had a fascinating life and would be a person I would love to chat to!!
….Okay, I may have had a teeny crush on him too 🙂
hahaha that’s awesome! Ever been to his restaurant? http://www.alicecooperstown.com/
Ooo I didn’t know about that! Well if I ever win the lottery I will get the first flight over!! (Though I don’t expect he works or eats there hehe!)
When I was a young teenager, I thought he was awesome. That was in the time of ‘Killer’ and ‘Billion Dollar Babies’. He’s a lot more articulate than people might think, so, yes, he’d be good for a chat.
Thank you soooo much! You’re an angel to nominate me.
*squishy, squashy hugs*
You are most welcome – you have a beautiful blog 🙂
(((hugs)))
