Now let's see. I am supposed to do some things here, in order to spread this around.
First I have to mention seven random things about myself. Hmmm.....
1. I have been married to the same man for 38 years.
2. We have 3 daughters and 8 grandchildren, with another on the way.
3. Our youngest daughter broke the mold, wears a habit, and is a Franciscan nun.
4. I began sewing at age 12 and am self-taught for the most part.
5. For years, I crocheted endlessly; for the most part, I made lace shawls that I sold through craft stores.
6. I love dogs and have had a dog almost all of my life.
7. I would love to live in the country on an acreage, not a farm (too much work) but with a fair chunk of land around me.
Now I am to list the rules of the award and will now proceed to pass it along to 15 other bloggers.
So here are the rules:
- Add the award to your blog.
- Thank the blogger who gave it to you.
- Mention 7 random things about yourself.
- List the rules.
- Give the award to 15 bloggers.
- Inform each of those bloggers by leaving a comment on their blog.
Thank you!
ReplyDeleteWow- 38 years! I always have to ask- what's your advice for marriage? Congratulations. :)
Really interesting about your daughter. I rather admire her mold-breaking for a great cause.
Advice? stick with it, everyone has difficult times (sometimes they can be years) but we have become each other's best friend. It really helps that my husband has a wicked sense of humour and would never fight back when I got surly. So he avoided all-out fights, I would be left feeling ashamed of myself for my outbursts, he never retaliated. I think that was a key factor for us.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I think the "best friend" thing sounds great. :)
DeleteWow thanks Julie. Busy with work so probably not able to respond sensibly until the weekend. Ruthie
ReplyDeleteJulie, thank you so much for the Versatile Blogger award, but since I already have that award I will pass on writing seven things about me ... But thank you for thinking of me!
ReplyDeleteThank you Julie, I appreciate you sending the award on to me.
ReplyDeleteJulie - thank you for honoring me with this award! I am so thrilled that you think my ramblings worthy and that you admire my sewing. Thank you so much!
