I woke up this morning to an email from UK Blog Awards telling me that I’ve been shortlisted as a finalist!
I was incredibly surprised, but also incredibly overwhelmed. I think it’s going to take a few days to sink in. I’m just one little person, writing about bits and bobs of my life. A life, which in the grand scheme of things, is largely insignificant. Now I’ve been invited to a networking event and an awards evening in London! (To some of you, London is just a city, but when you’ve grown up in a small village, Leeds seems like a big city, and London always holds this magical charm of endless possibilities along with incredible confusion as to why people move so quickly and where the sheep are).
I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who voted and who shared my blog and asked others to vote. Also to everyone who reads what I write and who shares what I write, including the charities who constantly show me their support. I really am incredibly grateful.

Such an exhilarating feeling, right? Many congratulations on being selected! Honored to be shortlisted alongside you. 🙂 Will definitely catch up on the award ceremony day!
Thank you – I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to get to this. I wasn’t well at the time of the awards and wasn’t able to reply to much or make the ceremony. I hope it was all that you hoped it would be! Naomi xxx

When is the Awards Ceremony? Do we get to vote again? So so proud of you and hope our support helped you stand head and shoulders above the crowd. Go Naomi. Jxxx
Well deserved! 😀 I’m so glad you made it in to the finals. How do they decide winners? If it’s more voting, you can count on mine (with all my email accounts) 😉
