Honest Scrap! My First Blog Award!

Photobucket


Yippeee-doodles!

I was given my very first bloggy award by my very blogilicious friend, Shalee, over at Sometimes Its Good To Be Speechless! Thank you, Shalee! You are a rockstar!

Now, this award doesn't come easy! I have to earn it by exposing myself (yikes!) .... (not as freaky as it sounds..lol!) Here's the scoop...


The rules for the Honest Scrap award:

The honorees are to:


A) List 10 honest things about yourself -

and make it interesting, even if you have to dig deep!


B) pass the award on to 7 bloggers that you feel embody the spirit of the Honest Scrap


And away we go....

1. If Edward Cullen were a real person, I would run away from home, kick Bella's be-hind, and make him my own...cause I'm older and more experienced...and my blood is probably tastier cause it ages like fine wine...


2. My husband proposed to me at KFC...(yes, that's right...the chicken joint..)


3. I can only have white hangars in my closets. (can anyone say, "Mommy Dearest?")


4. I LoVe to play Cash Cow on Webkinz for hours and hours...


5. When I go into a bookstore, I always find the timewarp and end up staying in there for hours...and hours...when I come out 100 years has passed by...


6. I love Aerosmith, Metallica, Muse and Bullet 4 My Valentine (yes, I realize I am 43, but what are ya gonna do?)


7. I am horribly addicted to blogging...like an intervention is probably needed (and I've only been at for 2 weeks!)


8. I am a closet road rager. I will scream (yep, I set a great example for my children...) at all the stupid drivers until they do what I say. (My kids find it amusing that I think the other drivers can actually hear me...oh, didn't I mention I rage with the windows up?)


9. I am a huge fashion nerd. (my sister is the stylish one...)


10. I wish I could be paid millions for my wit and charm...no, make that billions...


Whew! Exposure over! Hope I didn't flash you too much!


Now...my turn to give the award to 7 blog-fabulous friends!

Tuesday's Tribute...Heartbeat..It's a Lovebeat

Yet Another Jay and Deb Production. I am paying my Tuesday's Tribute to Chilly. Today we celebrate our first Heartaversary. What is a Heartaversary, you ask? Well, settle in with a cuppa and let me weave a tale of wonder... One year ago today I was pacing the waiting room floor of University Medical Center in Tucson waiting for my husband’s surgeon to inform me if Chilly had survived his triple bypass. I’ll spare you the sordid details of how all this came about. I’ll just say that it was very fast and unexpected. The prospect of losing my spouse in my early 40’s wasn’t in my plan obviously. My plan was more of a “hanging with the kiddos, going to the Renaissance Faire, beating my son at Guitar Hero, driving my husband crazy for decades” kind of plan. But God always has a bigger plan for us. In this case, he was trying to keep Chilly on the planet for a while longer. As I have written before, Chilly has had two very challenging years. He has been a diabetic for a couple of decade

I really appreciate your input!) I’ve had a few emails asking me how I chose the items for this extravaganza. I am sharing my favorite things with you! I am also throwing in a few things chosen by Tween Caveboy and Miss Kitty. Plus, I’m adding some fun items from my own shops, Black Crow Boutique and Mon
