I was graciously given the Gorgeous Blogger Award from Amy at Keep'n The Sunny Side a few days ago and think it's the perfect way to end the week! This is what I'm supposed to do:
1. Accept and thank the person who sent it to you.
2. List 10 things about yourself.
3. List 5 additional things you don't like.
4. Pass the award on to 10 other bloggers.
Ten things about me:
1. I was 18 when I got married and we are celebrating our 16th Wedding Anniversary in just a few weeks.
2. I hate talking on the phone and will go to great lengths to avoid it with two exceptions....my husband and my mom!
3. My favorite color is pink but I don't wear pink clothes. I have one t-shirt that I'll wear occasionally but all other shades tend to make me look a lot paler than usual. I will however wear pink pajamas.
4. I don't believe you have to be a mother to be a homemaker. I've often felt excluded from other homemaking blogs because we don't have children. That's the reason I started this blog although I've never actually said that here!
5. One of my closest friends is one I've never met in person. And you know who you are right?! :-)
6. I want a Pug really, really bad and plan to call her Penelope!
7. We are facing a job loss in 2-4 weeks and I'm 100% positive that God will be glorified through it. I'm not worried at all. Am I crazy?
8. I hate the color blue.
9. I have not planted any flowers around the house yet, but when I do, I only want red, white and pink ones.
10. My birthday is the 4th of July.
5 Things I don't like:
1. People who do not keep their word.
2. Mushrooms and tomatoes.
3. Nosy neighbors.
4. A messy refrigerator.
5. Poorly wrapped gifts.

Gosh, I seem to be a little neurotic in some cases don't I?
I'm going to pass on giving this award away to other bloggers because I don't want them to feel obligated to do it if they don't want to. Thank you Amy for the sweet award!
Many Blessings,
M.
Melissa Congrats on your award!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean. We don't have any children as well. Your list is perfect! I don't like poorly wrapped gifts either. They seem so thoughtless.
Have a blessed weekend sweet friend.

Thank you for the nice compliment and all of your support! I have been struggling with my self image and all of the adjustments that come with major changes like this. Whew! I know it's a very wonderful thing to be healthy again it's just been different. It's almost like I forgot what it was like to be my old size. Strange I know. I promise to share before and after photos as soon as I meet this final goal! I'm looking forward to being able to feel comfortable doing that. That is the key to it all. *Smiles*
ReplyDeleteHave a great week. ~Melissa :)
Congratulations on your blog award and on your up and coming anniversary! A good marriage is a blessing from the Lord! Thanks for sharing about yourself, it's great to get know more about our blog friends:)
