A couple days ago I awakened to a message saying that I had received a nomination for an award to my blog. I thought for-real, I hadn’t even been blogging very long, but I guess my work hasn’t gone without notice. It was May of 2013 that I uploaded my first blog, but I’ve been writing, and observing things to write about since I was 5 years old. Today, with great joy , I accept the Sunshine blogger Award.
The Sunshine Blogger Award is an award given among fellow bloggers to recognize one another for spreading rays of sunshine and motivation. My nomination came by way of Brandi Williams, a wonderful young lady I met one day I was out and about promoting my radio program. You can visit her blog at the following link: http://lipsforjesus.blogspot.com
Rules to accept the Award include:
1.) Reference and link to the person who nominated you!
2.) List the 11 things you just learned about me.
3.) Share 11 things I don’t know about you, or use the same questions that I answered.
My answers to the questions:
1. What is the first thing you do as soon as you wake up in the morning? I turn my alarm off if it’s a work day. Then I acknowledge God, and grab my phone.
2. What is your greatest fear? Honestly, I don’t spend time focusing on my fears because that seems counter-productive. Fears that I have had in the past; I’ve overcome such as: Fear of the dark, fear of doing things on my own, fear of speaking in front of people, fear of trying certain things.
3. Do you have a new year’s resolution for 2014? I have a New Year’s focus of seeking to please God before I seek to please myself. I am a very giving person, and because of that I’ve been imbalanced in the past where God has dealt with me about doing more things for myself; however, I don’t want to go overboard as we can sometimes do when we’ve been extreme in one area.
4. What is your favorite song at the moment? Anthony Hamilton “Best of Me”
5. What is your favorite childhood memory? Hmmm, I’m gonna say having dance contests with my brothers while we watched Soul-Train on Saturday mornings. Also, whipping them on Street-fighter and Mortal Kombat lol.
6. Facebook or Twitter? Facebook
7. What did the last text message you received say? Sure, you got a chess board. (Meeting someone to play chess.)
8. What bugs you the most? It really bugs me when I see potential in someone to be amazing, but that person is content with being foolish. It also, bugs me when people don’t listen, and I have to tell them the same thing over and over again.
9. What do you consider to be the most important appliance in your house? The Stove. A girl’s got to cook.
10. If you could have one song that would play whenever you entered a room, what would it be? “That Girl” by R-Swift – Here’s a link to the songhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHFaK-ZjAGI . I’m that chick! LOL.
11. What’s your favorite movie quote? At the current moment my favorite movie quote is from the movie Baggage Claim that says, “The magic is not in getting married, but in staying married.”
Thanks for Reading!
Below are the answers to the questions from Ms. Brandi who nominated me as well as those that I am nominating:
1. What is the first thing you do as soon as you wake up in the morning? Hit snooze! When I wake up for real I check my phone because as I’ve mentioned, I sleep with my phone on silent.
2. What is your greatest fear? Not being who I was created to be.
3. Do you have a new year’s resolution for 2014? I don’t have a “resolution” per say but my goal is to speak and teach with more frequency.

5. What is your favorite childhood memory? Time with my grandaddy.
