I don't blog regularly, I don't have a theme of any kind, I'm terribly random ... So why me? I've no idea, but I'm so grateful. It really lifted my spirits when I was lower than low. Now here's the fun part! As a requirement for accepting the award I am to share seven things about myself that my readers might not know, and then I'm to pass on the award to ten other Beautiful Bloggers! Ten? How can I choose ten???
All righty then, first up - Seven Random Things About Moi
- Although I was trained as a music teacher I was briefly licensed as a hair stylist in the state of Illinois.
- I always wanted to be the lead in a musical production, but was too shy to really put myself out there.
- I can't really believe that I'm 55 years old. Isn't that the new 35?
- I would dearly love to visit the Pacific Northwest. That's on my bucket list. It used to be the rocky coast of Maine, but the hubby took me there for a second honeymoon in 2000.
- Singing lead with our Praise Team at church is the fulfillment of a childhood fantasy. Wait, you didn't want to be Petula Clark when you were 10? Now I have a real microphone and I don't have to be careful of how loud the stereo in my bedroom is.
- My first cat and my daughter share a name. Except that my daughter's name doesn't have "Precious" tacked onto the front.
- Oh my, I do have one other thing but I can't share it yet! *g*
And now for the blogs. I had to take a deep breath, close my eyes, and just choose. There are so many fabulous blogs out there, but these are my ten for this time.
Mind Over Mullis - I want to be Amy when I grow up. Well, at least I'd like to write like Amy when I grow up.
Popping Bubbles - Popping Bubbles is fun, down-to-earth, and I just love reading about her day!
Why Not - Right? - Cylithria is a writer, former Marine, and if you need someone in your corner you couldn't ask for anyone better. Ooh Rah!
Anissa - What can I say about Anissa? She is a miracle. Her husband is doing her blogging for her as she recovers from two massive strokes this past November. Go. Read. Take some tissues with you.
On a Limb With Claudia - "Claudia Hall Christian is a beekeeper who writes novels and serial fiction." After a tag line like that, how can you resist?
I Read Banned Books - I never know what to expect from cajunvegan and that's definitely a plus!
The Robinson's Lily Pad - Froggylady is the wife of a Marine. I'm a Marine Mom™, so it's a perfect fit! She crafts, too, so whee!
Curly Kew - I've known her for almost ten years and she is funny, she is frighteningly honest, and above all, she is real. 'Nuff said.
I'm Sweet Enough - Teresa is a tough (sugar-free) cookie! This is her brand spanking new blog to chronicle her journey as a recently-diagnosed diabetic.
C. Beth Blog New to my reading list, but fun! Check her out!
