Lemonade...

You know, when it comes to Lemons and life hurling them at you in rapid succession, I prefer to turn to Lemons's cousin. The Lime.

Then, I make margaritas, not lemonade (limeade?).

But, my friend Sabrina tagged me so I am going to work the awesome lemon's thrown at me this year.
I was given this little award by Sabrina whom I worked with at the Bank. Sabrina was the only reason I didn't jump off the building from boredom. I read about 2 books a week on Ebooks.com at this job.

Anywhooo... Here are the rules on this here award...

1. Put the logo on your blog or post

2. Nominate at least 10 blogs that show an attitude of gratitude (I am lazy, I am only doing 5) <--- I'm with Sabrina and doing 5 because I don't know 10!

3. Link to your nominees within your post

4. Comment on their blogs to let them know they've received this award

5. Share the love and link to this post and the person who nominated you for the award.

6. Tell us how you've come to have an attitude of gratitude.

Here are my nominees:

1. Sara - who is going through the trials of starting her own AWESOME photography company.

2. Jennifer - who is going through the trials of loving food and wine, but not so much the effects it has on one's waistline. Although I think she is super cute... just saying.

3. Donald - who never has any trials. He just lives in a BUBBLE. A green irish bubble.

4. Sarah - who's blog entertains me immensely and just got a new job! Whooo!

5. Last but not least at all, Nienie. If you haven't met her and her blog and her family, do it now. I don't know her personally, but I want to drive to Utah and nurse her back to health NOW.

While I come off as largely sarcastic and like I could care less about what happens in the world, that is pretty much just my "I'm Brave" face. I can't say anything really hard has happened to me lately, but I have had a few things come up that challenged me. Kitchen, Hurricane, 2 family deaths that I missed the funerals of, an issue with a coworker... Each of these things taught me life lessons and I have moved on and upward.
