Things You Don't Know ...

Over the past couple of weeks, two thoughtful bloggers I recently discovered passed The Stylish Blogger Award to me.  I offer my most sincere gratitude for this recognition to Cindy of Custom Comforts and Michele of My Notting Hill.



The terms of this award require that I now share with you seven things about myself ... isn't that what I do here all the time?  Let's see what I can come up with that you'll find interesting ...


1.  Our house is the only place The Husband and I have lived in since our marriage in 1980 that is not a new structure.  Really.  I worked with all of our other houses to add old-house details and architectural interest  ... no need to do that here.

2.  I am the oldest of three children, and I truly like the company of my siblings.

3.  I am allergic to cats ... but not as much now as I was when I was younger.  Antihistamines are your friend.

4.  I went to college to become a teacher, but I decided that being a Mom was a better career choice for me.  When I want to teach, now I do it my own way ... by presenting a gardening program, mentoring a new gardener, posting a blog tutorial, etc.

5.  I try to avoid working on ladders ... they scare me.  Same with electricity.  Electricians are magic.

6.  My favorite music is heavy metal or hard rock, played really loud.  I also love Motown.  I don't hear too well out of my left ear. 

7.  I have always been a gardener, but I didn't start ROSE gardening until 2002.  I'm a quick learner.  :)

I am now supposed to pass this award to other bloggers who I admire, but I can't really narrow it down like this without feeling like I'm leaving someone out or hurting someone's feelings.  I read and enjoy each of the blogs you see on my Blog List on the sidebar to your right.  Do me a favor ... scroll down the list and check out one of the blogs over there that you have never visited before.  Be sure to tell them that I sent you.  :)

Thank you for thinking of me, Cindy and Michele.  This was fun!
