Stylish Blog Award


Thank You Magnolia for picking me for the Stylish Blog Award. As I commented on her page, clearly the blogosphere is a shallow pool if we're thinking me stylish LOL. You are too sweet! And since I hate to break with the tradition of the award I will follow the rules of blogging seven things about me:

1. Quitting my career in television advertising has made me happier then I could imagine. I worked for years (being a type A personality) trying to be the best sales person, climbing the ladder, and getting so stressed it effected my health. I quit to be with the love of my life and I think it's saved my sanity.


2. HOWEVER, I miss having a job that takes more than an IQ of 70. While I can be mentally challenged through reading & conversations I find that not having a career has given me less to talk about, and I fear I'm becoming dull LOL.


3. I have a bit of OCD but for *odd* things. For example, I only set my alarm clock to times ending in 1's, 3's, 7's & 9's. Like for some reason if it's set to even times or something ending in five it won't go off.


4. I take between five to eight bathes a week. To me there is nothing more fantastic then surrounding myself in the warm water while reading a great book.


5. You can tell when I'm really upset or mad because when my blood pressure goes up both my ears turn red, as well as a spot on my left cheek.


6. Because of my useless movie trivia knowledge - my husband LOVES to challenge me with the "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" game. I have gotten to Mr. Bacon in six or less steps on literally at least a hundred actors.


7. I didn't date a whole lot after college so when I was 25 I said if I didn't find someone by the time I was 32, I would look into IVF with a donor in order to be a mom. I started dating my husband when I was 29 and married him when I was 31. The irony is now we may need to go to IVF anyway. I guess it's a little easier for me to wrap my head around it since I had thought about it years ago.

I am supposed to pass the award onto others, but I may have to edit this...I believe all the wonderful Bump gals I follow have already gotten it and I don't think "stylish" is the right way to describe my cousin's personal blog on his Crohn's disease.
