My Blog Won Another Award!

OK, Blogger is not making me happy today. First, this was supposed to be published automatically earlier this morning, but that didn't happen. Second, and this may be Blogger or Facebook - yesterday's blog entry never made it to FB. I may be a computer geek, but some days I hate computers! Ranting is over, on to the good stuff for today.

Julie of Julie Magers Soulen Photography has awarded me the Premio Meme Award. I am honored to be a recipient! Thank you, Julie!

The rules of this award state that I am to give 7 facts about myself and pass it to 7 people. Here we go!

1. I am a computer geek that works with IBM mainframe and midrange systems software.

2. I love knitting, crocheting, sewing, counted cross-stitch, and many other crafts.

3. Although it's beautiful to look at and photograph, I hate to have to shovel snow.

4. I have two wonderful, full-grown daughters, a terrific son-in-law, and another very nice young man that I hope will be my second SIL someday - I am blessed.

5. A friend and I both turned 60 this year and threw ourselves a huge party with folk-music, singer-songwriter David Roth as the live entertainment.

6. I visit Maine often and may just move there someday (even though there is probably more snow each winter than where I live now!)

7. I drive a Prius, currently getting 48.4 MPG.

Now to pass this award along to 7 deserving blog owners (in no particular order):

Random Lunacy

AllieArt4Children

Wild Ginger

Arty Allsorts

Marlene's Musings

Peace, Judi

Friend's Award

I was surprised to find that Celtic Cat Photos honored me with this lovely award. Thanks Cathy!

Our hope is that when the ribbon of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers.
