Liebster Award Round #2

The Liebster Award, with its tag line, “Discover New Blogs!” feels like one blogger telling another blogger about cool places to visit.

To have A Creative PTSD Gal send other bloggers my way with her April 29th Liebster Award nomination is a gratifyingly, warm greeting. Thanks, Jo, and mea culpa for my taking so long to engage!

Go check out her blog; it’s filled with sketches, doodles, washes, 6-word stories, longer pieces, challenges, a soon-to-end contest, pictures, and, well, just an incredibly wonderful collection of wit, wisdom and wonder.

AWARD EXECUTION

QUESTIONS FOR ME

1. Do you prefer J.R.R. Tolkien’s Hobbit books or movies? Well, if I have to pick between just Hobbit books and all movies, I’m gonna have to go with movies.
2. Do you eat or skip breakfast? I skip while I eat breakfast. Actually, it depends on how hungry I am when I get up.
3. How do you express gratitude? That’s a great question. I’ve kept gratitude journals, but that suddenly doesn’t feel like an expression of gratitude. It’s a recording of it. It’s a moment of being mindful of things I’m grateful for. Both of these things are nice. But your question is making me think I could more actively express gratitude to people with greater frequency. You got me thinking, which is awesome.
4. Do you kill bugs or take them outside? I want to be the kind of person who always takes them outside. But I’m only sometimes that person.
5. What’s the oddest job you ever held? I got nothin’ on this. But, there’s still time!!
