A few weeks ago, I received a lovely surprise; Sherry of Mama’s Diaries had nominated Anglers Rest for The Versatile Blogger Award. Thank you. I am always amazed at the positivity of others in response to my rambling & obsessive blog posts! 

To comply with the rules of this award, I have to mention, thank and link to the award giver.  I also have to tell you seven things about myself:

1. Instead of being born in September I was two weeks late and arrived in October. I am always in a rush or running late!
2. I have a career in pharmacy management and a history degree.
3. I seriously need to declutter and have despite culling many books I still have more books than bookcases.
4. I believe that learning and books are medicines for the mind.
5. I can play backgammon and not chess.
6. I would rather drink tea than an alcoholic beverage.
7. I have an iPad and iPhone, I am a potential PC to MAC convert!

Passing it on to other bloggers – I follow a tremendous number of blogs and many of them are versatile. I have therefore decided not to pass along the award, but to make a further loan $25 to  the Kiva Project that I have mentioned several times on this blog. I am a member of the Genealogists for Families Team.
