I'd like to thank the academy...

The A-to-Z Blogging Challenge is over and I managed to muddle my way through and survive.  I have quite a few new followers (thank you very much, all!) and found some new blogs to follow, as well.  I spent a little time reading blogs throughout the challenge, but definitely find that I do more blog hopping once April is over.

One of the blogs I've stumbled upon in my internet exploration is Off the Mark.  Thanks to the proprietor of this hilarious blog, I have been nominated for another Liebster award.  For those who are unfamiliar, here are the rules:

Post the award on your blogs 

Thank the blogger(s) who gave you the award and link back to their site 

Post 11 random facts about yourself

Answer 11 questions that the presenter of the award has asked

Nominate 11 new bloggers with fewer than 200 followers you want to pass the award on to

Ask your nominees 11 questions

Since it hasn't been all that long since I nominated 11 fellow bloggers, I'm going to bend that particular rule and just post my questions here.  If any of you have a wild hair up your butt and want to answer, feel free.  And be sure to link to your blog when you comment so folks can find your blog easily.  (Shameless self promotion is ALWAYS welcome here!) 

11 random facts about yours truly:

1.) I like salad.

2) Much to my husband's chagrin, I'll always hold a special love for trailers.  (You can take the girl out of the trailer park, but you can't take the trailer park out of the girl.)

3) Today was jammy day at my kid's school.  It's nearly 6pm and my kid is still in jammies.  I've ignored the looks people have been giving me and keep reminding myself I'm not a negligent parent.  

4) I'm a cat person, but I have 2 dogs.  They love me more than anyone, but I only love one of them back.  The other one can kick rocks for all I care.
