Sunshine Award

Sharon over at Sharon's Paws Create just graced me with her Sunshine Award, which is quite nice. We here in the Pacific Northwest have been needing all the sunshine we can get, after all!

The award, as usual, comes with something the recipient is supposed to do. I have thanked Sharon for the award and will answer the questions, but I'm not willing to pick out ten bloggers from my buddy list. So, if you are one of my followers and would like to receive this award, just say so, it's yours! These are always fun, but only if someone really wants to play. Here are the rules:

Thank the person who gave you the award.- Write a post about it.- Answer the questions below.- Pass it on to 10 bloggers who you think really deserve it and send them a message to let them know.

Thank you, Sharon, for increasing the amount of sunshine in my little corner of the world. And here are my answers to the questions:

1. My favorite color: Purple
   
2. My favorite animal: Cats
3. My favorite number: 11
4. My favorite non-alcoholic drink? Coffee
5. Facebook and/or Twitter? Facebook, not Twitter
6. My passion: Skydiving!
7. Getting or giving presents? Getting, of course!
8. My favorite pattern? Oblique ones
9. My favorite day of the week? Mondays (since I retired)
10. My favorite flower? The elegant and fragrant Rose

That was fun, actually, except for the patterns. That was a hard one. At first I thought of diamond patterns, but then I realized that patterns could also refer to the lines within them, and I became aware of the fact that I like diagonal, slanty lines, so that explains my answer.

We actually do have quite a bit of sunshine right now, and I see its effect reflected in the smiles and good moods that seem to be blossoming everywhere. I do hope you are having a good day, wherever you are!
