Versatile Blogger Award

 Samantha over at She's Not Broken...She's Just a Baby honored me with this award. 


Part of the "deal" of receiving this award includes these rules:

1. You have to Thank the person who awarded you and link them back in your post.
2. Tell everyone 7 random facts about yourself.
3. Pass the award on.
4. Contact each blogger and let them know you’ve passed the award on to them, and let the “giver” know you accept the award.

Oh man, 7 things about me...


1: I'm only 5 feet tall.  I never got any taller than that.  At least I can hem my own pants now that I learned to sew.

2: I've battled Anorexia.  People laugh because I'm not skinny but before they diagnosed my diabetes I was so frustrated with my weight I would often stop eating for a week at a time. I am very aware of what I eat now but often forget to eat just out of habit. 

3: In college if I got drunk I was known  for taking my bra off and putting it on my head and saying "Help me Obi-Wan, you're my only hope."

4: I'm afraid of large dogs.  It's gotten better, but in 2006 I was bitten by a large dog and it still makes me nervous.

5: I have custom makeup.  My skin tone never matched any brand I could find.  I had a custom blend made by Prescriptives.  Even though they no longer have any locations I have my recipe and can still order my makeup from them.

6: I can tune out children's toys. A friend once asked me if I found a particular toy annoying and I wasn't sure what they meant.  I just tune it out after a while.  It helps me keep what little sanity I have left.

7:  Would anyone notice if I made any of these up?  I wonder about that because I'm running out of things about me that are even remotely interesting.


When I think about versatile bloggers one person comes to mind, Ali over at The Craning Gap.
She is one of the most versatile people I know.  An amazing, wife, mother, friend, baker, seamstress, writer, artist, photographer...the list goes on. I'm more then happy to pass it on to her and her versatile blog.
