Kathleen at Sassy Granny tagged me! Thanks! Although I have no idea what I'm going to say. We'll see....
See the cute little tagged badge for all the rules...
Let's see, 7 quirky things about me... gee.. how will I ever keep it down to seven??? lol
1. I hate to fold whites. Those little bitty pieces take forever. I usually save this duty until near the weekend and leave the basket of washed whites laying around and my hubby and daughter fold them for me. Sweet!
2. I'm reading The Normal Christian Life by Watchman Nee.
3. Sometimes reading blogs makes me so sad I almost want to quit reading. The gravity of people's problems moves me often to tears.
4. Sometimes I think about stopping blogging myself. I enjoy it, but it takes a lot of time. And on the flip side, sometimes I don't want to put the effort into 'building my readership', which incidentally I couldn't have cared less about when I started on this little bloggy journey.
5. I love living in Texas even though people stereotype us unfairly. (no we do not all drive Cadillac convertibles with horns on the front, or wear boots.... with or without spurs)
6. I like to give and receive hand crafted gifts. I make scrapbook calenders for my IL's, my fam and for me every year for Christmas. And I want to try to buy some neat personalized gifts from Etsy for some relatives this year, if I can get it together.. we'll have to see how that one goes.
7. My hubby had to drag me kicking and screaming into the 'Internet Age'. I hated the idea of the internet at the beginning. Now I would say I (along with my family) are pretty obsessed with it. How did we ever make it before we could just sit down, do a search and find an answer to a question in like ten seconds??? I don't know either.
Now let's see....I'm supposed to tag 7 people.... hmmm.....
1. There's Karen at Gberger. I've enjoying getting to know her and grieve along side her in the loss of her daughter.
2. There's Donna at Way More Homemade. She and I actually got to grab a bite to eat together the other day. She's a hoot!
3. There's Jennifer at Smelling Coffee. I'm always blessed by everything she says!
4. There's "Lolly" at Eating Our Way Around DFW. Always fun to see where she's eaten lately!
5. There's Michelle at Because I Love You. She's another Texas girl and she has a heart for grieving moms.
6. There's Jill at Jill's Blog. She's new to me.. found her recently while I was blog hopping. Would like to get to know her better. : )
7. And last but not least, there's Susan at How Can I Keep From Singing? We have something in common as we both lost sons to the same disease.
This is fun! I hope everybody plays along. It's always fun getting to know you girls a little bit better! Happy Friday, Y'all!

Hi. Thanks for reading my blog and leaving a comment. It's always exciting to know that more than just my close circle of friends and family are reading it! Guess I'd better get to work "tagging" 7 people! ( :
We get a lot of stereotyping when we live in the south... funny though how many people come here from other places and STAY!!
What a lovely way to get to know a few more things about our cyber-friends. I sure hope you won't close up blog-shop. I, for one, enjoy your posts and would miss them.
Be blessed,
Kathleen
Aw.. thanks Kathleen! : )
Dear Kay,
Thank you for the honor that you bestowed by "tagging" me. Since I was just tagged recently, I think you may want to replace me with someone else, as my 7 facts are on my blog...and 14 facts about me might put everyone to sleep! =) Thanks again for thinking of me! I enjoyed reading your 7 facts.
Thanks for your comment. It's so true that God brings us verses at the right time whether it's for comfort, encouragement or whatever our need is.
I haven't forgotten about the "tag." I wanted to do this blog today for obvious reasons and usually do a devotion of sorts on Sundays, but I will plan to do it one day next week. ( :
Thank you for the Tag, Kay! I have a lot of catching up to do, so I hope to get to it soon! So glad you're getting to know Jill, too!
Love the new design of your blog. Blessings to you... Jennifer
Kay,
You delurked on October 14th and I totally missed the tag. I was reading back through my comments today and realized... I missed this fun post.
I'm so sorry to delay in responding - your response to my IOW post that day just touched my heart and though my life was crazy with my husband working out of town, my managing the schedules of one busy Lay Minister (that's me) and two teenage girls --- this just got away from me. No excuse for not responding, though.
Please forgive me the oversight and allow me to do better in the future. You are a gem and I noticed your blog is very festive and will definitely be back to read more when I am not rushing to get presents wrapped, menus planned and supplies purchased as well as coordinating several family events! WHEW! I'm tired just thinking about it!
THanks again for reading my blog and being a friend to me - even if only in the bloggy world. You are a dear.
Blessings,
Michelle
