10 Questions

Time to play along with a tag from the lovely Tessa from Down that Little Lane.  I have never done the 10 question game before so lets see how I go:-

1. Describe yourself in 7 Words
Helpful, neat, positive, enthusiastic, easy going (although my husband would disagree), loyal and hardworking

2. What keeps you up at night
Sweet Style - The business of a small business run from home means I am usually up until 1 or 2am processing orders from the online store as well as responding to emails, planning my next styling job with the occasional load of washing thrown in!

3. What would you like to be
When I was younger I always wanted to be an actress but I am kind of loving what I am doing now - styling, photographing, business owner, blogger - but I just want to be able to do it in less of a rush and be able to devote enough time to everything.  I think I need a few more days in the week for this! 
I do secretly think that maybe I would also love to be a photographer - maybe down the track!

4. What are you wearing right now
Thankfully a summer dress - we are having a lovely summer's day here today after what has not been our best summer on record.

5. What scares you
 Currently that my business is consuming me and I am not giving my family or myself enough time out - this work/life/family balance thing is tricky - any tips are welcome!!

6. What are the best and worst things about blogging
The best thing is the sense of community and that fact that you feel ownership of something that is your very own creative space.  The worst thing for me now is trying to find the time to blog - I miss blogging and reading blogs like I used to so I am on a mission to get back to it.

7.  What was the last website you visited
Facebook - always something to see and look at and post about!

8. What is the one thing you would change about yourself
My need to keep things in order - I am a neat freak and sometime I wish I could just let things be.

9.  Slankets - yes or no
Definitely no - who has time to sit around in one of those things anyway!!!

10. Tell us something about the person who tagged you
I have only met Tessa once at a bloggers catch up but we chat regularly on the email - Tessa to me is warm, friendly, enthusiastic and positive - we are having dinner soon so I look forward to getting to know her better x

So now to tag a few other lovely friends to see if they will answer the 10 questions

Melissa - Miss Sew and So
Meredith - Count it All Joy

Am I a Top 25 Creative Mom?

from here
Late last week, I received an email letting me know I'd been nominated for the annual "top 25 Creative Mom" blog award from Circle of Moms. No idea who put me forward or why, but it was very unexpected and a little exciting! If you are not familiar with Circle of Moms, its a great resource for new mums - with practical advice, tips, forums and all manner of other fun bits and pieces to help make your first days and months as a new mother a bit more bearable!

To be nominated in this list is a lovely compliment... but to be one of the top 25 I need your votes! If you love Bubby Makes Three and would like to see my blog in the top 25, simply vote for me by clicking on the button on the top right of my blog and then the button next to my logo once you are on the page.

In return, I will send e-kisses your way... and vote for YOUR blog if you are also nominated! (just share your link in the comments below)

Even if you don't want to vote, I recommend clicking into the list for a looksy anyway -- lots of creative fodder to add to your favourites bar and some great, creative blogs you may not have discovered yet!

Thanks gals, and have a lovely week xx

ps. Thanks for your sweet comments about liking the pics of moi from my recent holiday, I realised I don't share too many images of my good self on my blog... at 35 I am not feeling like an oil painting these days, and am normally too vain to show my wrinkles to the wide world! You have shown me I need to just get over myself. So thank you! x
