Stylish Blogger Award

I'm always really honored when I get a blogger award, even stunned. 
Barbara over at Notes From the Second Half  decided I was worthy of the Stylish Blogger Award. 


I'm supposed to share 7 things about myself.  This is always the hardest part because I never think I have anything that interesting to say.

1: I'm a direct descendant of Judah Loew the Maharal of Prague.   Y'know, the guy who created the Golem of Prague.

2: I'm exactly 5 feet tall.  After I turned 17 I just stopped growing taller.  I wish my boobs would stop growing.

3: I used to do a lot of stage shows.  Acting, singing and all that jazz.  I miss it.  I miss singing and love when I can sing to Garrett.

4: I have Insulin Resistance.  I eat a very balanced diet and I'm on medication for it but losing weight is always a challenge because of the IR.  I get lots of exercise too.  Losing weight just doesn't happen and is often why I get so frustrated with myself.

5: I wish I had more time for knitting.  I need to keep my knitting close so when Garrett falls asleep on my lap I can knit while he naps.

6: I don't have a best friend and I am jealous of people who do.

7:  I'm not sure why but I'm bothered by the change in my zodiac sign.  I was never big on my zodiac sign but being a Gemini was always part of who I was.  However in Garrett's case I swore he was a Leo and now he is.  Ben is also and Aries instead of a Taurus.  I'm just not sure how to take something like this.  I don't think my zodiac sign in any way defines me and I know that I have characteristics of both signs (plus Taurus is an Earth sign).

And now I need to award 15 other bloggers (do I know 15 other bloggers?):

Aias.ca
Creative Bubbles
Fine and Fair
Miss Sews-it-all
She's not broken
Tales of an Unlikely Mother
The Craning Gap
Witkowski Family Happenings


Ok, so I don't have 15 people, but these 8 are pretty amazing.

Wow, I am so honored to be on your list of awardees! And about that best friend thing - don't let it get you down, I totally know how you feel!

I love reading about your sewing and drooling over your craft room.

As for best friends, the older I get the more I see that people don't really have them as much as I thought they did.
