The Mystery Blogger Award

So last week I posted about my recent nomination for The Sunshine Blogger Award, which you can read here. I am so grateful that people are enjoying my writing and visiting my blog, and I was even more surprised to later be nominated for The Mystery Blogger Award too! This came from the incredibly lovely Ami of Undercover Superhero. Ami writes about living with Transverse Myelitis, Ataxia, hearing difficulties and central vision loss and her recovery journey, and if you check out her blog, you’ll soon read that she is indeed a superhero. In addition to her amazing positivity surrounding her recovery, she also writes to raise awareness of her health conditions and while also documenting her upcoming wedding. Go visit her blog!

So, what is The Mystery Blogger Award? It was created by Okoto Enigma, who explains it like this:

“Mystery Blogger Award” is an award for amazing bloggers with ingenious posts. Their blog not only captivates; it inspires and motivates. They are one of the best out there, and they deserve every recognition they get. This award is also for bloggers who find fun and inspiration in blogging; and they do it with so much love and passion.

Ami’s Questions

What was the biggest mystery you have solved?

I don’t actually think I’ve solved one! I currently have some stomach issues that are being investigated but I’m on a massive waiting list!

If you were to create a lucky charm,what would it be or what would it be made of?

I’d have a little silver replica of Tilly, my cat. 

Which Disney character are you?

Probably Marie from The Aristocats. She’s so sassy and cute!

What GIF do you use on a daily basis?

I don’t use GIFs all that much but my favourite one of all time though has to be the cat typing really fast. 

What was the funniest thing you’ve ever been told?

When my Mum didn’t know what the phrase “smash your back doors in” meant and it turned out she’d been shouting it at the dog when she wouldn’t stop barking! It’s probably my favourite story ever. 

My Nominees

I’m not sure I can reach 20 bloggers and I had a slight mare last week by pre-scheduling my post while I was on holiday – meaning most of the bloggers I’d chosen had already been nominated by someone else and had already done a post *facepalm.* There is such a thing as being too organised! I’m starting to run out of people to nominate too without repeating myself, so don’t feel you have to do it as I don’t want to bombard anyone with tags! In the short time I’ve been blogging, I feel that the following bloggers (including Ami, who nominated me for this in the first place) have stuck by me the most and have been incredibly supportive and lovely, so thank you so much ladies.

Tinkablee – Little Tinkablee

Ruth – Autistic Fit Chick

Charlotte – Time to Talk

Liz – Anxiety and Liz

Nyxie – Nyxie’s Nook

Kirsty – Love Popcorn

Chloe – Writing the Blues Away

My Questions

1. As a child, what did you want to do when you grow up?

5. Cocktail of choice?
