Kreativ Blogger

So, I was most flattered & very surprised that Magaly gifted me with a Kreativ Blogger award. As accepting this award, I am to post 7 random 'facts' about myself (which truly goes against the grain).
    1) The only nickname I've ever had is 'freak of nature'.  A nod to an ability to read widely, synthesize, & replay appropriate parts as needed.
     2) I learned how to milk a dairy goat when I was just out of high school.
     3)While I don't need a dustfree environment, I do require an orderly one.
     4)Counted cross-stitch calms me down quicker than anything else.
     5)Catnip is my Valium.
     6)I'm a natural light blonde who spent many of my younger years wishing that I was a natural           auburn.
     7)My favorite escapist tv programming is 'Midsomer Murders' & live coverage of natural disasters.

Love, to tide us over :)

Love , puppy love , mama love .  Lullaby love  , dance love , high school love , parents love , play-it-loud love , sing-it-loud love .  Plus some health love , because there is some important info here.

While we're waiting....

While I'm waiting around until daughter gets home to help me with downloading photos (one would think this would be easy ), here is a little something from Jason to think about. His latest book, Financial Sorcery, is an excellent read & most useful!

Articles just made for speculation & fantasy :)

Archeology is an amazing science.  It amazes me when I read of ancient remains, ruins, & roads & think upon how *old* they are, but still, in some cases, in use!  In other instances, digs provide clues to our histories, other times they lead to speculation & daydreaming of the possibilities.  Such as this absolutely fascinating article. Why ever would a people be so bent on mummifying a complete skeleton?  Another article to ponder: what was life like so long ago?  Did the people settling here get any warning that the ocean was coming?

So awesome that I had to post!

This  makes me smile...a lot :)  The same applies to 'boys' ;)

Too hot to think....

Still working on getting photos to upload properly.  Hopefully, later tonight! In the meantime, one of my all-time favorite authors is blog-hopping in support of her newest book 'Troll or Derby'.  Great read, & I'm not the only one to think so!  

Day 3                      Day 2 (I think)     Day 1
