Guess What?

I have been nominated as a Stylish Blogger.   Gee Thank You "blushing".   Never thought as myself being stylish.  I am beginning to like it.  Maybe I will go out and buy some high heels.  Naw.  I would fall on my face and get a black eye.  So here goes seven things about me:

1. Instead of being an army brat, I was raised a NASA brat.  While growing up my family moved from Idaho to Utah to California to Alabama back to California to Texas, back to California and finally ended back in Idaho.  I have decided to stay here.

2.  My family were caretakers of a cemetery in Idaho.  We use to mow/weed whacked the lawns, dug and buried graves and moved sprinkler pipes.  Because of the work I love cemeteries.  I know weird but boy I can tell you some stories about our work.

3.  May favorite color is green, with yellow a close second.

4.  I use to build sets for the local theater group.  Built a tree for the play Camelot; fell out of it and broke my foot.

5.  I love to make jewelery especially earrings.

6.  I love watches.  I probably have at least 20.

7.  The most important things to me are: My Heavenly Father, my family and friends and my intelligence.  The rest is just stuff.

Now for the nominations.  I nominate the following;

Homemade Quilts by Granny
Flat Creek Farm
Ami.Mental
10 Minutes 2 Breaths
Is It Just Me
Country Bumpkin

I love Maxine.  She is a little crass.  I found this one today.  I can remember when I was young I use to complain about the senior citizens.  Now "I" be one.

Everyone have a great weekend.

    congrats on the award! I enjoyed reading the seven things about you. How interesting to be caretakers of cemeteries. I enjoy walking through them for some strange reason, even if I don't know anyone buried there. I'd be interested in reading any stories you shared about that experience.

    totally agree to your #7!!!

    enjoy the weekend

    Congratulations on your award! I'm glad to have found your blog. Love the comment at the end about senior citizens. LOL> I keep trying to convince myself that I'm not one yet but then I'm slapped with the 55-and-over deals and realize that If I'm not one yet... I'm darn close. Have a beautiful Sunday!

    Thanks for accepting the award!

    What an interesting childhood you had! Did the cemetery frighten you at all in the beginning? I love walking through them, too. There's a comfort and peace in graveyards that can be found nowhere else.

    Green is my favorite color, too!

    And I'm sorry to laugh, but it's just so funny that you designed a tree then fell out of it and broke your own foot!

    Nice to meet you!
