And to top it off...we have had our bed on Craig's List because it just isn't our style...and we had someone come look at it yesterday...so keep your fingers crossed we sell it because that means the bedroom can be attacked full fledge because I made a deal with hubby that I would wait to do anything until that was sold...
Even if this couple doesn't purchase it for their bed and breakfast...I know it will sell...so I feel bliss right now...we have always left our bedroom last and when you think about it we should put it first...I am going to make it a get-a-way place...so that is what I want to create...I even found the perfect light for our bedroom...just to give it the perfect romantic feel...a jump for joy I am doing...
On another note....the other day I received a wonderful e-mail from Mary at Vintage Home and Garden that she was passing on the Kreativ Blogger Award to me...ME? "Oh WOW" I thought... my little old blog was thought of!!!
And then this morning...I received a wonderful comment from Darlene from Music to My Ears...a newer follower of my blog nominated for the Beautiful Blogger award too...
Luckily both of them require me to share 7 random things about me and then pass to seven people...although I have to admit coming up with seven things was quite a difficult task for me...but I gave it a shot...so here you go....
The rules for both...
Thank the person who nominated you....why thank you Mary and Darlene! I appreciate you both thinking of me...and my little ole' blog!!!
Link to the person who nominated me...well I've done that :)...
And for the hardest part...share 7 things people may not know about me.
So here we go...
Are you ready? Are you sitting at the edge of your seat yet?
I know I'm such a mystery aren't I? {wink, laugh}
one. I get asked for some reason about my heritage a lot by people...I find that rather strange...but okay...NOPE...I'm not Italian....and I'm not Indian either {hubby is though}...I'm not Spanish...not Mexican...or Hispanic {and by the way nothing wrong with any heritage...I just get a kick out of why people want to guess or ask specifically} but I am English, Swiss, Scotch, Irish, and German...so if any of you all were wondering for some reason {your wonder is now answered}...
two. I know you all love me to pieces {you can laugh now}...and I know most know I am quiet....but I do come from a long line of tempers on both sides of my family and we are all blessed with them....I do say blessed...but hubby doesn't agree since he has one as well...it actually is funny between us though:) Anyhoo...{I do apologize I get sidetracked so easily} we were in Subway two weeks ago...ordering...and the guy making our sandwiches just looked at us and laughed and told us we couldn't be anymore different from how we ordered our sandwiches...which is true...I do eat meat...but not much beef, not pork, not a fan of bacon, or steak and never have been...I am not a vegetarian by any means...just more of a veggie and cheese lover which is what I ordered...a veggie...and hubby a steak philly...
three. I can point my foot and make it completely flat like dancers do {just imagine a ballerina on her toes...my foot extends even a bit further}...I honestly do not think it is "weird" like Bobby says it is because I am sure dancers can do it no problemo...but he gets freaked out since my ankles are so flexible...so if he is irritating...I just have him look over at my hyperextended foot....
four. I hum quite a bit when I am doing things...I get that from my Grandpa...and sometimes I catch Madison chiming in with me when I do...and when I am tired I will start singing the Spanish alphabet...
five. when I run...typically one hand is clenched and tight like a fist...and my other is open and fingers spread ...When I see something I love or get really excited both of my hands will straighten, stiffen, and open fingers...
six. my favorite all-time movie is The Notebook...and always will be {told you I'm a romantic sap}...BUT ever since I was little and even pre-teen I L.O.V.E. action movies...there are not many I don't like...call me crazy but my sister and I would watch over and over Van Damme movies growing up...our two favorites were Bloodsport and Kickboxer...Diehard movies too...
seven. when I go to the doctor for anything and they see my medical history...they make me show them my scars because they don't believe I had complete ACL reconstructions of both knees since I was released from rehab so early compared to others with the same surgeries...for some reason they are amazed and I just shake my head because I don't understand the big deal and why that is so hard to believe...I always think they must have had really boring days to get caught up in icky knee scars:)
{And here are my seven I send these awards too...I randomly picked 7 different people...if I didn't mention you then I faintly remember you have been passed this before...and so I also tried to pick those that I didn't send 10 Happy things to as well...}
