Look Who Recieved the Liebster Award**Celebrate Dance to the Music**

I received the Liebster Award by Silver Lining at HopeFulDepression.  It took a minute to pull myself up off the floor. I’m grateful for the nomination. The Liebster Award has a long history in the blogging community. The award is given to blogs with less than 1,000 followers as a way to acknowledge and motivate new blogs. I discovered the word Liebster is of German origin which is perfect since I’m of German origin. Nothing like a mix of German, Neanderthal and American Indian. I’m honored to receive the Liebster Award from a long time follower. Her work is powerful, I urge you to stop by to see for yourself.   http://hopefuldepression.wordpress.com 

How did you come up with name of blog?

I have Treatment Resistant Bipolar Disorder and have spent years in darkness. Looking for the Light could sum up your hopes for relief. 

Has the experience been what you expected?

I’m having so much fun meeting people from across the globe. Shortly after starting my blog, I joined The Cut Throat Club a collaborative group of survivors. We support each other in recovery and offer support to the community. I’m privileged to share my experience of abuse and depression with others. If sharing helps one person, my heart will smile. 

One thing that scares you?

Spiders, snakes and sharks.

One song that makes you the happy?

Beautiful Tonight by EC.

Do you have special talent or play an instrument?

Don’t play any instruments, not for lack of trying. Special talent, can’t think of  any unless the gift of gab fits.

What age did you stop believing in Santa?

I remember it clearly, 5 years old told my mother Santa wasn’t real and I was to old to take naps.

Favorite place you’ve traveled to?

I fell in love with St Petersburg, Russia. France is second.

Can you sing?

 Very badly but it doesn’t stop the rock star in my mind. 

Favorite Book and why?

Bible, you learn something new every time you read. 

If you could live anywhere where would it be?

I haven’t traveled the world yet so that’s hard to answer. Probably right here in USA, Home of the Free. 

Have you ever won an award in sports?

 A blue ribbon for a relay race in third grade.

Sunday in the Park Not on Fouth of July**Band Chicago if confused**

A couple of months ago I went to park and took photos of ducks, water and most important fresh air. It’s probably the day I was bit by a tick contracting Lyme. All the details for another post. It was wonderful just to drive my car, it’s three years old and has at best 1,000 miles. After being in the house sick or afraid to go anywhere by myself, just a park a few streets over felt like total freedom. The key to happiness was being able to take my camera and just mess around. I was struggling with balance problems but refuse to use my cane. I enjoyed the sun, staring down a squirrel and seeing loads of ducks. It’s a family park and many children were out feeding the ducks. There’s a creek near by and I had to investigate. We released 12 baby ducks there a couple of years ago. There were little fish, nothing exciting. It was the greatest day in recent history from a health perspective. I’ve only been out of the house twice since early fall and he drove both times. I’ve had a rough weekend yet wanted everyone to know I am thinking about you. I’m praying for a better day tomorrow. Thank you for stopping by or to my followers.

Rock Out Treat For Willy Nilly From Sister Warrior

Why have I done a video post for Willy Nilly my brother? We talk smack a lot, have similar taste in music and he’s a great guy. If he can’t take the shit he needs to get out kitchen!!!! :) Trust me he can take it and spoon feed it back to you. Willy will not tell me his age, he knows mine, I’m going to kill him kindness to find out. He’s knows exactly what I’m doing. I say he is much younger. I’m a rock star in my head and wanted to see if I hit his music button. I had to prove my music tastes is different for my age group. 51 years old in couple of weeks, 50 doesn’t feel that old, it’s my body that didn’t get the memo. I included a couple from my guitar hero EC. I appreciate anyone who can make a guitar sweetly scream. Enjoy the video’s. After you leave feedback for me be sure and visit Willy Nilly and comment on his musical taste. Have a great Fourth of July celebration. Get ready to jam, turn the speakers up high!!!!!      Warrior

Throw Back Thursday with Looking for the Light*Join Warrior Down Memory Lane*

Josh Groban and Brian McKnight show Simon and Garfunkle songs are still relevant.

 

 

It’s hard to go wrong with Paul Simon, Stevie Wonder and Friends. I love the gospel feel of the song.
