I'm tempted to ask the Cat for her list and answers.. hm...*ponders*
High Fives from Ann
List 5 highlights of 2009:
1) Joined an online writing course at the Uni of Exeter in Feb-March: extremely casual, helped me gain my confidence, helped me start writing again and led me to my Open Uni course that I am thoroughly enjoying.
2) Lost weight successfully. I didn't go on a diet but I increased my exercise regime - lots of jumping around to Rosemary Conley DVDs - gawd bless her!
3) Won a tiny flash competition, first prize £50. The site (brevitything.com)that hosted it is now defunct - but not after I cashed the cheque! LOL!
4) Survived my one year anniversary as an independent woman after 10 years in coupledom
5) Turned 40.

It was fun reading your answers.
Thank you for the nomination! I'm an award-free zone at the moment but I love it that you thought of me.
Sounds like you've survived quite a year.
My blog has never been nominated before - thank you! My Internet access is spotty right now. I'll look at your post and link more later. Maybe I'll even check out and comment on the other nominee blogs.
Thank you for the nominations! I especially liked your High Fives--all terrific.
I'm not sure I can nominate any other blogs, since not many people follow the Musings one. I will give it due consideration once this lack-of-sleep induced headache is gone!

So glad you posted the award, I think this is one of the more interesting ones since you can only answer with one word. And your blog deserves an award, it's one of my faves!
Hi fairyhedgehog!
You're welcome - I love your gerbil/hamster/lil rodent running around in your blog... hint!
LOL!
Take care

Take care

Ooh, snazzy awards - congratulations
:-)
I'm not exactly sure what you're hinting. If it's that you want a hamster of your own, you can get one from aBowman. Click on edit settings to choose your own colours, and then click on the Blogger item to add it to your blog!
Hi Amanda!
They're such fun awards! Thanks
:-)
Take care

Hi fairyhedghog

Thank you!

Thank you thinking about me! I've been blogging for a few years and have been gifted with so many nice awards but I made the decision this year not to accept any more as I'd like more new bloggers to receive them :-)
It was nice to read the facts about you! I love pub food too!
Oh wow Old Kitty - just spotted this - thanks ever so much for the award :-)
