Four Questions

I was tagged! Edi from Memories for Life Scrapbooks got me with 4 questions. Pop on over to her blog to see hers. These are what I get to answer:

1. What was your biggest accomplishment for the week? Or month if you prefer?

I'll go for the month since the week has only just begun. I got sewing again! While this should be an everyday occurrence, it has not been for quite some time...therefore - accomplishment!

2. If you could choose one age to be the rest of your life, what age would you choose?

I do like my age now (38 if you are reading this now, 39 if you catch it a few days later)...but I am thinking somewhere in mid-40s will be even better...so I'll go with 45!

3. What is your favorite season?

NOW!!! I love fall. Some years it passes by in a blink here in Michigan, but I love the air & the sky & the changing trees. Last week was perfect...crisp with the leaves falling but still warm enough to go out unbundled.

4. What is your favorite color and why?

Oh geez...that one is tough. My color preferences change with my mood. I tend to be quite color-centric each day. I even dress the munchkin in the same color I put on...without even realizing it. Although, if you peek in my closet or fabric shelves - green and red tend to dominate (and all tones therein). Even pink, which I despised when I was younger.

And I am going to be a party pooper & not tag on...if you want to have fun reading a bunch, just keep clicking through from Edi's blog...a bunch of us got hit :)

Lemonade Time

I have seen this award around the blogverse...and I just got one for my very own. yippee!
Thanks CandyCrack! It's nice to get an award from a neighbor (well, a couple cities away anyhow). Hop on over & check out her blog...or better yet - her Etsy shop. This is one of my faves from there:




And now I get to nominate 10 blogs I think are awesome and show attitude and/or gratitude....
But since I was also given the Kreativ award and tagged with the 6x6 game...I will be bowing out of the passing along this time...call me lazy, or tired, or not wanting to bombard too many folks with stuff...but I'm gonna pass - sorry - still love me ? :) ?

Six by Six Tag

My son was just over 2 when this picture was taken. He was dancing in his big brother's hat while the sister of said brother's best friend was cheering him on. That was an interesting summer - I watched my oldest's best friend and his sister a couple days a week. They had tons of fun that summer. I think my youngest dancing there had the best time of them all...it was like having 3 siblings that would always play with him.

Thanks to Nico Designs for tagging me in the 6x6 photo game and leading me back to those memories. She's a fellow blogger and has an awesome blog and Etsy shop. see...

Now..I am supposed to tag 6 people...




Annette Piper - Under the Loupe












Dee - All Wired Up








MommyBee - Lil Bees










SolSisters - solsisters














ZuzuGirlHandmade - zuzugirl










LostMitten - lostmitten









Can't wait to see what you have for us :)

By the way... I also left an award for the 6 of you over here ...
May make a good Wordless Wednesday *hint hint*

Tagged Yet Again

This time it's a meme from BeadinBabe.

The way it works: 1. Go to the 4th picture folder on your computer. 2. Post the 4th picture in that folder. 3. Explain the picture. 4. Tag 4 more people.

This is my son when he was 2...
much too old for his bouncy seat, but did not want to give it up!

I am going to be a bit of a party pooper & not tag...but instead, I open it to anyone who reads this. Just come back and leave us the link so we can go see :) I met her a few months ago when she was organizing a craft show here in Michigan...it was one of my first. She makes some awesome jewelry that you can find in her etsy shop. This is one of my faves:

Tagged Twice - I Feel Loved

CinnamonSpice and MyGypsyGoods have both tagged me, so I get to come up with 7 things to tell you about myself. I'll try to keep it fresh for those of you who have read my last tag.

So I am going to combine the two & pass them both on to blogs I think are fabulous :)

Tag Rules:

~ Link to your tagger and list these rules on your blog.
~ Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.
~ Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their name as well as links to their blog.
~ Let them know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

...and I am adding one more :) Given the Holiday season & the busyness of so many, I grant you absolution from having to pass it on...but it'd be great if you'd still give up some fun things about yourself (or your work) and direct us towards some of your fave blogs

My 7:
1- I am hopelessly addicted to fabric. I can not enter a fabric store and leave emptyhanded.
2- I love my sci-fi...even (make that especially) the B movie type you find on the sci-fi channel on Saturday nights...even better when they have their tips.
3- I am also addicted to books (pics to follow in another post)
4 - I used to go by Teri because I thought Theresa was too old sounding...and now I barely respond to it.
5 - I love to paint, and I don't care that I am not very good at it :)
6 - I have to change my rooms around on a regular basis or I go batty. Drove my mom nuts when I was a teen.
7 - My son looks just like I did when I was 13...only like a boy - unless I did too...hmmm...

My 7 to tag: note to self: add pic from each person's shop w/link
