I am so sorry it has taken me so long to get this posted. I know you all are as tired of hearing about my computer problems as I am of typing them, but I kept a draft post and listed each time someone gave me this award. I was trying to post it from my brand new computer on Saturday night when my cursor started jumping around the document. I tried to go back and get it and it deleted the entire post! And then stinkin blogger autosaved so I lost everything! Pretty sure I shed a tear or two! So I have had to go back through my emails and try to find the names again. I sincerely apologize if I left anyone out who gave this to me. If so PLEASE let me know and I will publicly thank you and apologize!
I truly have the best blogger buddies in all of bloggerland and I am so grateful for all of you! I want to say a great big thank you to the following friends for gifting me with the Butterfly Award! Each and every one of them is truly amazing and creative and so super-talented and I hope you will visit their blogs to see what I mean! You will not be sorry!! So a huge thank you to (in the order the award was received):

To receive this award, I need to: answer several questions, award this 'Butterfly Award' to 10 other bloggers, contact the 10 bloggers to let them know they have been given this award, and I also need to show a link to the person who gave me the 'Butterfly Award'. So here goes...
Q1) Name your favorite colour?
Blue
Q2) Name your favorite song?
Oooh, so many, but right now: Say Goodbye by Katherine McPhee, Jar of Hearts by Christina Perri, Dancing by Elisa, Holding On and Letting Go by Ross Copperman and Cathedrals by Jump Little Children (sorry, I couldn't pick just one!)
Q3) Name your favorite dessert?
Strawberry Shortcake
Q4) What wizzes you off at the moment?
Rude, inconsiderate people and Microsoft. I had to get a new computer because of all the problems with Vista, so I get one and two days later, they launch another new operating system! Grr...I am sooo not happy with Microsoft right now...
Q5) Your favorite pet?
I'm a dog person but I haven't been able emotionally to get another since I had to put my baby, Dakota, to sleep after 15 years ago. I have three semi-feral cats whose momma had them here and then abandoned them: Shadow, Cali and Calypso. Calypso is the sweetest of all of them, lets me pet her, runs to me when I come home, talks constantly and so wants to be an indoor cat :)
Q6) Black or White
Black for clothing
Q7) Your biggest fear?
Illness striking my family; snakes
Q8) Best Feature?
My sense of humor
Q9) Everyday attitude?
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to know the difference
Q10) What is perfection?
The ocean
Q11) Guilty Pleasure?
DWTS, SYTYCD and red wine
Q12) When you're upset you?
Brood, write want I want to say in my head, imagine sending it and then let it go...either that or call my mom :)
