What a privilege to be named one of The Stylist Blogger Award recipients for the second time within a matter of weeks. This sure makes a gal feel swell! 😉
Tawna (inactive blog link, removed) is the kind soul who passed the torch to me this time. You’ll find her blog to be an inspiration if you are trying to make healthy adjustments to your life through exercise and diet. Every mother aspires to reclaim her pre-motherhood figure and mind. We can all rally behind and along Tawna, as she boldly posts her results for the world to read.
Tawna instructed me to share seven things about myself. What a trick this is gonna be since I’m doing the ‘Get to Know Me 30 Day blog challenge’. Here goes nothin’!
1. Math was my worse subject in school. Numbers went over my head. I had to teach myself the basics of algebra, geometry, and trig for my children. Please, don’t ask me any math questions because humbly I must admit, I still stumble.
- I’m not a logical person. This does not come to me naturally. I had to learn to capitalize on this trait from my college programming courses, my husband, and the gift of wisdom which comes through the years.
3. I can drive a manual transmission car. My husband taught me how to drive his 4-speed Ford Fiesta in our early years of marriage. Once I got the knack of a stick shift, I LOVED IT!
4. I was born a month early. In 1961, this was a bit of a big deal. For some reason, the doctor kept me in an incubator. I imagine the concern could be my lungs. I think that was an issue with babies born too early. That was back in the day when they’d knock out mom just before the baby delivered. I never understood this, do you?
5. My maternal grandparents are still living.
6. I’m the oldest of three siblings and the oldest grandchild for my maternal grandparents.
7. And finally, once a friend, always a friend. That’s me, I’m VERY loyal.
The next step in accepting this award, Tawna says, I must pass it to 15 bloggers. What is she trying to do to me? This will be a difficult choice.

You are so sweet Cathy. I appreciate the lovely award and will send some love around.
Thanks so much for the award! I really appreciate it! 🙂
Thank you so much for thinking of me! Someone had given me this award before, but I do appreciate the thought and the “shout-out”!

Java
Kim @ChubbyCheeksThinks…you’re welcome. Yay, you know how to drive a stick, too! Don’t you think it’s fun?
THank you so much!! 🙂
I also learned how to drive on a 4sp ford! And I loved it!!!
you got it my friend! It is obvious that we both LOVE what we do….and yes you are right…THAT is what matters!
@Caren…just do what you love, love what you do. That’s all that counts. I’d lose my mind, too, if I worked outside my four walls. LOL We can lose our minds together as we write our way through blogsphere.
Cathy you are waaaaaay too kind!!! I don’t think so!! I don’t have a job…if I had one I probably would lose what is left of my mind lol. Thanks so much for your incredibly kind words ((((hugs))))
@Caren…you have way more on your plate than I at the moment. You have a good catitude. Keep up the catulous job with your blog!
@Shay & Mary…you’re most welcome. Just spreading a little love around blogsphere. =D
Thank you so much for thinking of me! Someone had given me this award before, but I do appreciate the thought and the “shout-out”!
Thanks so much for the award! I really appreciate it! 🙂
Cathy thanks sooooo much for understanding!
Right now I am sooo behind (on my self-imposed deadlines lol)
I have cock-eyed photos in my blog for tomorrow…still reading email from today…haven’t even started to make the blog rounds for today (which I may have to skip)…haven’t been to Twitter in a week…have to test a toy for a product review for Saturday that I haven’t even looked at yet 🙁
I KNOW you understand….all that for no money!!! lol
Only a fellow blogger understands that! xoxo
Congratulations Cathy! You are indeed the stylish blogger.
OH, BTW- could you please send me a paragraph about yourself for feature Blogger on March 3rd, 2011 TTQ. Thank you.
@Donnie & Judy…have fun with the award!
@Caren…hate you? Never! I understand. Your award goes out to everyone in blogsphere. =D
Cathy, thanks so much for the honor. Now I must rack my brain to think of those who qualify. Most blogs I associate with have been around for a number of years, in fact I’ve been blogging since 2007, so maybe that doesn’t really matter?
Anyway, thank you, I am truly honored.
You are so sweet Cathy. I appreciate the lovely award and will send some love around.
@Saimi…I beg to differ. You are stylish in your own way. I like your blogging style. You make me feel right as if I’ve known you longer than I have and that’s a nice quality to have.
I’m anything but Stylish but thank you for the award!!
@Lynnette…your blog is truly nice. I am looking forward to reading your book, which I plan to order from Amazon soon. Oh the procrastination! *bear hugs back @ Lynnette*
Thank you so much for passing on this award to me and my blog. Here’s a big cyber hug for your kindness. {{{{Cathy}}}}}
Have a great day!!!
Lynnette 🙂
