Thank you to my readers!

From time to time I get nominated for some sweet blog award that requires me to answer a few questions about myself and then nominate a list of other blogs that inspire me. I am constantly being inspired by a daily list of bloggers (too many to list), although I did compiled a list a few weeks ago. I have to admit I am horrible about following directions and adding or doing anything that requires more than two process action. Literally I go on a meltdown. It overwhelms me. I thank you all for your constant support. It is shocking to me that anyone would stop by, read my blog, and then add me to an award nomination. I am always flattered and touched. Usually, I am so touched that I get a little weepy.Here are 25 little facts about me:1. I am extremely sarcastic in person. This is not a trait I brag about. The words that sometimes come out of my mouth seem to be pushed out by an unknown force. Luckily most of my friends and family are very sarcastic as well.2. I am a huge Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle fan, so much so that I have a figurine in my car of Michelangelo who is my favorite. Consequently I can watch the movies over and over and zone out.3. I hate talking on the phone. Actually I loathe it more than anything. I have zero phone etiquette. If it wasn’t for the fact that I have to have a phone for my business I would actually not have a phone at all.4. My favorite color is green. My least favorite is yellow.5. I love hiking and being in nature. I am grateful to be living in the most beautiful mountain range.6. My kids raised me into motherhood. I don’t know who I would be without them. They have been my best teachers in life.7. I have an amazing circle of friends and family.8. My favorite time of the day is morning time. I love the quietness and stillness of entering into a new day and being totally grateful for the extra chance to do things right…one more time.9. I am very impatient with myself. I have lots of patience with others but when it comes to me, patience is non-existence.10. I am Puerto Rican but speak Spanish like a Cuban. Years of being with a Cuban man left the gift of that accent. Consequently, most people think I am from New York even though I’ve only visited NYC twice.11. I love to entertain at home. I enjoy watching people truly relax and interact with each other.12. I try to laugh as much as possible. I am goofy and rarely take myself seriously. Overall, I am a happy person.13. I have no tolerance for intolerance, prejudice, gossip, and stupidity. Those who believe "know it all" and try to implement their "knowing" to me see me go on shut-down mode. After a lifetime of being dominated and controlled I can't be around manipulators.14. I love high heel shoes. Since I moved to the country I rarely wear them but when I go back to visit family in the city I indulge in my heels.15. I try to meditate every morning for at least 20 minutes.16. I write every day. I have thousands of poems, too many journals, and most of them are truly depressing from my past.17. I cry easily….in happy moments and in sad ones. It doesn’t take much to get me weepy.18. I am a true romantic. I indulge in little details when it comes to love!19. I avoid confrontations as much as possible. Also avoid anything to do with heated discussions such as political views and religions.20. I love entertainment magazines or news. Could care less about world events but start talking about movie stars and my interest is peeked.21. I am an avid reader sometimes read several books a week. I am very protective of whom I lend a book to because I expect it to be returned.22. I don’t follow directions very well. Whether it is for an address, building something, or recipes I cannot stay focus long enough.23. I believe we are here on earth to learn and experience as much as possible from each other. Everything that happens has a purpose. You must take the good with the bad and absorb it. Thank God for the journey! I also believe in the power of intention, the law of attraction, and the law of allowance.24. I am a giver and have a really hard time receiving anything…even compliments.25. I am a huge hugger and touchy-feely type of person. I will also talk to just about anyone or anything for that matter (as long as it is not through the phone). One of my favorite things is listening to others tell stories about themselves.Now you know some useless information about me. I hope this makes up for all the award nominations. Thank you for your constant support with my site. This blogging experience has enriched my life because I am being inspired by so many amazing writers every day.Most recently, thank you Katie from http://realwomanshealth.wordpress.com and http://unfetteredbs.wordpress.comfor the nominations!
