Adorably Awarded!

So the Adorable Sam over at I'm with the Band has bestowed upon me the Adorable Blog Award! I am incredibly humbled and can't believe I've been given such a lovely award when I'm only a month and a half into my blog. Thanks Sam!!

Them's the rules
* Thank the person who gave you this award and link back to them in your post
* Tell us 10 things about yourself
* Nominate your bloggers
* Contact these bloggers and let them know you have nominated them

Well, I will try to be as specific as possible without giving too much away, being anonymous on here and all. 

1. I talk. A lot. I have been told that I could talk underwater. Which really wouldn't happen because...

2. I don't like to be underwater. Sure, I like swimming, but get freaked out a bit if I have to hold my breath for too long, or if I'm in a confined space where there is water. 

3. I am super organised in some aspects of my life, and completely un-organised in others. It's like selective OCD. My bedroom is usually messy, however my tupperware drawers and pantry are fabulously tidy. 

4. Very recently a close friend of mine told me she is pregnant and I am over the moon for her! But I'm also insanely jealous. I'd really love to be getting pregnant now, but have to wait til after the surgery and a couple of other real-life things that are happening. Hopefully this time next year I will be coming to you live from a downsized, incubating baby body :)

5. I'm getting excited, but nervous, that my appointment with the surgeon is on Monday! 4 days away! More on this in another post later. 

6. I have an addiction to gift wrap. I absolutely love wrapping presents and giving them to people all pretty :) If I could get a job as a professional gift wrapper I would totally do it. I have to be careful that I don't buy too much, because I will never use it all, but I did chose a few lovely papers and matching ribbons from a great website last year and I'll get more when they are used up (or I'm sick of them). 

7. If I could have a personal masseuse, I would be in heaven. I love my husband, but he is not the best at back massages (although he is getting better). It feels like an indulgence to go for a massage at a fancy salon/treatment centre, so mostly I go to those cheap places at shopping centres (but only when I'm desperate). Even a bad massage is better than no massage at all. 

8. Wow ten things is hard. I'm not sure I will make it!

9. I can procrastinate with the best of them! In fact it has taken me over 30 minutes to write this post because I keep going and looking at other blogs. I'll call it looking for inspiration... yup. That's what it is. 

10. I'll go with the number here and say that I would be absolutely over the moon to be a size 10. I can't remember the last time I wore something that small. I have no idea what size that is for the US or UK, but here it is pretty small. 

I made it! Time to nominate my bloggers! I know that a lot of people I follow have already been awarded, so I think I will stick with one nominee, a new blog that I have just started following.. 

Andrea over at Adventures in Lap Banding has just started blogging, but I am addicted already. She posts videos too, and I watched them all one after the other, which gave me the sense of getting a tour of her house! I can tell we would get along because I want her to decorate my house.
