Apparently Lecy at “Simple Life Happy Wife has nominated me for a Leibster Award. It’s a blogging award for small bloggers, which Lord knows I am. I have to answer 11 questions about myself, post 11 random facts about myself, and nominate 11 other small bloggers. Hm. Well, here goes.
My eleven questions are:
1. How did you decide on the name of your blog?
The domain name is my name with my middle initial. My blog is “Day by Day” because it’s an account of how I struggle with bipolar disorder to make every day count for something.
2. How many unread emails are sitting in you inbox? (be honest!)
None. I’m an email addict.
3. What is your favorite food?
Chocolate almost anything
4. What is one wardrobe staple you can’t live without? (mine is hoodie sweatshirts)
My white capri pants for summertime. I love them.
5. Do you have children?
Yes.
6. What is your favorite social media platform and why?
I like Facebook because I can keep up with long-distance connections from forever ago.
7. What is something you do, smell, taste that immediately takes you back to your childhood?
See my mom.

Designer purses
