Whoop, another one for the trophy cupboard!

November 18, 2011 By jbmumofone 13 Comments

WOOHOO!  I won an award!  God, I love an award.  And this one has been presented to me by the amazing MOTHER VENTING herself so is even more special.  (Not only is she a celeb, has written a fabulous book, but she has celeb mates too.  You know that Sharleen from Texas yeah? They’re like that.  No really.)

Anyway, without further ado, Here it is…

Isn’t it purdy?

Now this award comes with some rules.  Gotta read the rules people.

Rule 1: Reveal seven secret things about yourself.

SEVEN??? I have already divulged my secret love for Jeremy Kyle, Billy Joel and, *whispers,* my teenage crush on one C Hawkes.  What more is there to give?  I will give it a go.

Rule 2: Nominate fifteen other deserving blogs to receive the award.

Holey moley.  Fifteen?  This award is a toughie!

Right then.  Seven secret things.

  1. I pick my baby’s nose, a lot.
  2. I have a phobia of bananas.  I CANNOT and HAVE NEVER peeled one.
  3. I also have a phobia of walking over three drains in a row as I was once told it was unlucky.  In fact I used to be able to draw a map of my route to work and could outline every single set of drains on there.
  4. My geography knowledge is appalling.  I am not even sure how many continents there are or what ‘Oceania’ even is.
  5. My sense of direction is also appalling.  I once got lost in Selfridges and took me an hour to find my way out.
  6. I am a seriously bad driver and only passed my test on my seventh attempt.
  7. I threw up in the second one.  Driving test that is.
So, there you have it.  A little more that you now know about me.
Now, fifteen deserving bloggers. I am sure that many of these may have received this already but here we go…
Yellow Days
Boo and Me
Love in The Nest
Expat Mammy
@Homedad
Mummy Cool
Mum 2 Baby Insomniac
Mother Scuffer
Mrs Slummy Mummy
The Love Bump
1978 Rebecca
Not Just a Mummy
A Mummy Too
Mummy Mishaps
Purple Mum

Phew!

Cos now people think you are. Yeah. And it would be STUPID if you weren’t, right? So, can you? Hello? Hello?

    Thanks for the tag! I can’t believe you have never peeled a banana! And I am so with you on the drain thing, it was a big deal when we were at school, everyone we hung around with would purposely avoid three drains. I have loosened up these days but I still avoid them if I can! lol xx

      I don’t know WHERE the banana thing came from but even a whiff of them makes me want to retch. Odd eh?

    I had a longer little finger nail specifically for picking baby’s boogers and I now dare myself to work straight over 3 drains in a row! Living on the edge me! x

    I have already commented on this post but its not showing. Weird.

    Thanks for the award matey. Had a twisted fascination with picking cradle cap for a while. I disgusted myself.

Welcome!

Jbmumofone is written by me, jbmumofone, and this blog is my baby. Although clearly I didn’t think this name through because I’m now a mum of two actual babies.

I blog because I love to write, and for sanity’s sake, and have been blogging since August 2011. So why not dig on in and explore?
