Hello, darling dears! I have indeed been absent....Life sometimes has a way of taking up all my spare time. However, I'm so happy to be back, even in this state of running behind schedule (much like the white rabbit).
I would like to begin my reemergence into the blogosphere with a lovely honor bestowed upon me by a sweet, new friend, Jayne of
Suburban Soliloquy. Jayne is very clever and witty as well as kind and caring. I hope you will visit her blog and get to know her a little better.
Speaking of getting to know someone better....I am asked to reveal
seven things about myself upon receipt of this Stylish Blogger Award. I know you are all waiting with bated breath, on the edge of your seats. #sarcasm (for hashtag explanation, click
here)
If you already know some of the things I'm about to list, I apologize for the repeat....Truth be told, I am both touched and amazed to think that you may have an interest in these little tidbits about me. I can't help but feel you will be bored to tears, but here it goes....
1) Every time it rains (like yesterday), I think of the people who have nowhere to live. Out in the wet and cold. It's not that I don't think of people without homes during fair weather. It's just that my heart breaks a little more each time it rains.
2) I dream in color.
3) Music and the water element are very powerful influences in my creative process.
4) I love to read (almost) all forms of literature, but I find that poetry deeply and profoundly affects me.
5) I don't like going to the market, but I do like doing laundry.
6) I make sublists of my lists. Yes, yes I do. Which actually should make me kind of enjoy going to the market, but nope. Still despise grocery shopping.
7) I'm a collector. I collect many things, such as keys, buttons, lace, buckles, and locks (just to name a few). Only old stuff though. I love old stuff. Also, old movies and old photos, old letters and old songs.
Bonus tidbits a
and b
and c:
a) I don't watch reality TV. Ever. I've never seen Survivor, American Idol or Dancing with the Stars, for instance. *shudder*
I did, however, recently discover the most inspiring, fabulous documentary on the Sundance Channel. If you get the chance, please watch it. It's called "Someone Told Me about Carla Bruni".
b) I'm a firm believer in wearing red lipstick with cutoffs and a tank top.
c) I love to dance!
and now (drumroll, please) I would like to pass this award on to someone very special. A blogger who puts a great deal of thought and effort into her posts. She has wonderful style and a warm heart. She happens to be a cherished friend as well. So, without further delay, the award goes to:
Susan of
Hometown Girl
The rules:
List seven things about yourself.
Pass the award on to another blogger.
Yes, I modified the rules, as did Jayne.
We're rebels that way.
If you made it through this post without falling asleep, I
want to thank you for visiting.
Have a beautiful day!
Your comments bring me happiness, darling dears...xo
