My first blogger awards!

Many thanks to Kim at "Chubby Cheeks Thinks!"  I really appreciate it... and the kick in the pants to post something new!  :)

First, she gave me a Sunshine Award!  I really like that one- I wasn't having a particularly sunny day until now.

She also gave me a Versatile Blogger Award.

As part of accepting this award, the winner must first thank the person they received it from, so again, thank you so much Kim!  Next I must share seven things about myself, so...

1. I frequently say I have "crafters' ADD" because while I sew a bit, scrap, make cards, beaded jewelry, and Christmas ornaments of various types, I recently started making Scrabble tile jewelry, and have materials to do Temari balls, Fimo projects, and have lots of bells, silk flowers, glass bits, etc. etc. etc.  A nickname for the office/craft room is the craft warehouse for this reason:

That's just the odds and ends- it doesn't include the wall full of stamping supplies.  One of these days I'll actually do something with all of that stuff.  :)  It's pretty much the supplies I've collected throughout my life.

2. When younger, I never wanted to have kids.  Later, I really didn't plan to have kids.  Later, I was mostly open to having kids but got pregnant much faster than I expected and had a hard time being pregnant mentally and emotionally- I call it pre-partum depression.  I love my boy to no end but one's enough.

3. I have a M.S. in computer animation and graphics.  I'll never use it.

4. My favorite 2 meals as a kid were tuna casserole and liver (still love them both.)  I hated chocolate chip cookies (still do.)

5. I like Imagination Movers as much as my son does.

6. Peppermint may be my favorite flavor.

7. Honeysuckle and fresh cut grass may be my favorite smells.
