thank you Penny (The Linen Shelf)
for the award!
Penny has 2 blogs
(you might know her Hen House blog from the Tuesday Tea parties)
I would like to pass this award on to these 5 beautiful blogs:
***
and now 7 things about myself that you might not know:
- I have always driven a stick shift car (except for a mini-van I once had for a couple of years)
- I'm addicted to puzzles (sudoku and crossword puzzles mostly)
- When I have a newspaper I always read the obituaries (I read the news too)
- I used to be a Republican (sorry)
- I was badly bullied as a kid - but now all those bully kids like me for some reason (I help out at school with at-risk kids)
- I have wanted to be an artist for as long as I can remember (but also wanted to be a nurse because I knew I would need a "real" job to stay alive)
- I can't stand Christmas (it's complicated)
Kimmie, thanks so much for the award. You've made my day.

Wow---more people that can't stand Christmas! I guess it's complicated for more of us than we know. Ditto on the artist thing too. I even went back to college at 52 and got my BA degree in ... ART! What to do with it though? Hmmmm....just to have the degree makes me so happy.
ReplyDeleteSo nice to learn so many new things about you. Like you, I have never driven an automatic.
ReplyDeleteKim, never knew those few things about you. Wish I had known, Love Dad
ReplyDeleteI read the obituries as I love some of the old names !
ReplyDeleteSad to hear you were bullied - someone has confided in my son that he's being bullied so I have rung the school. I'm glad he told Joe & Joe told me.
I like Chrismas but can find it overwhelming & get low - like last Christmas.
