My Marilyn Monroe post will be up in a bit, but until then, I was recently awarded the Leibster Blog Award; in return, I’ve awarded it to you. Check out my blog for the rules.
Here’s my post for Marilyn: http://theshadesofblackwhite.blogspot.com/2012/08/just-marilyn.html
Also, I was looking at the John Wayne posts, and I saw that you put for me “writes about his love for his father and John Wayne” . . . I just wanted to point out that I’m a girl; R.C. just stands for my first and last name.
Great. I’ll get you added.
I am SO sorry for the mix-up. I’ll fix it now.
It’s okay.
