Cate at Budget Confessions and Penny at The Saved Quarter both picked me as one of the recipients of the Kreativ Blogger award. Thanks ladies! Now I’m supposed to name 7 things you don’t know about me, and after a year of blogging it’s amazing how much I’ve already revealed.
Here goes:
1. My husband and I disliked each other when we first met in graduate school. He thought I was too “intense” and I thought he was arrogant.
2. When I was in the fifth grade, I won a trophy from the American Legion for an essay I wrote in school about “Americanism.”
3. I lived in Manhattan for two years in my 2os.
4. I can’t wear wool, even cashmere.
5. For my 40th birthday, I celebrated with a solo 30-day cross-country train trip, after a big party with my friends and family.
6. I’ve never been able to do a cartwheel, even as a child.
7. My longest term relationship was with my cat Harriet (named after the great Harriets in history- Harriet Tubman, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Harriet the Spy), who lived to be 18. My husband is a close second at 17 years this May.
I’m passing on the award to these bloggers for their creativity in the areas of cooking, crafts, lifestyle, parenting, and more…
