Answers

I owe a couple of bloggers some answers.

I've been tagged and awarded!

I am pressed for time, so I thought that

 I'd do a condensed version.

I really do appreciate the shout out, ladies!

Thanks so much to

 J.R at The Concoctions of My Life

and to 

Meegan at What Meegan Makes.

A few answers-

I've been blogging since May of 2011.

What's my focus? Ha!  None of that around here.

My favorite blogger?

It was Marian, MMS herself, who inspired me

 to take the leap.

No agenda, no pressure. Just do it, she said.

  I was at Luckett's the weekend she moved 

into her outdoor space.

That was almost a year ago.  How things have changed!

She'll always be my favorite because she gave me

 the courage to put my toe into the water.

Thanks, Marian!

My favorite dessert?

Chocolate Cake.

Chocolate Pecan Frosting.

Fork.

I don't share.

What do I like to do when I have free time?

Read real books. See movies. Bake. Sew. Embroider.

Sit and enjoy the quiet.

I am in LOVE with quiet.

A few favorite things?

Massages.

Fresh flowers.

Lemons.

Books.

Orange toe nails

The smell of fresh rosemary.

Laughing.

History.

Vintage linens.

Anything my boys made for me.

Crazy old Bette Davis movies.

(I know they weren't intended as comedy, but how she makes me laugh when she gets crazy eyes!)

Do I get writer's block or struggle 

to come up with blog ideas?

No, never.  I am always doing ten things at once 

so I have plenty to blog about.

I just don't want to be a slave to the computer.

My favorite singer/band?

I like all kinds of music except rap...

it makes my ears bleed.

Right now I'm listening to James Morrison,

Maroon 5, Bruno Mars, and Gavin DeGraw.

I love 80's music.  

I'm a little bit country, I'm a little bit rock and roll.

(First person to call me out on that verse wins something!) 

And I love Adele, but geeez...that girl makes me depressed.

Last thing I pinned on Pinterest?

I love this!

Hope you'll visit J.R and Meegan~

I'm off to work out in the backyard.

The drought last year did a lot of damage, 

so there's much to do.

I've completed several projects,

 but haven't taken the time to draft a post.

Maybe tonite?

Before I go, I have a prayer request please.

My son has a friend who is at the neurologist today

and undergoing a brain MRI.

They suspect a brain tumor, but there are environmental toxins in play, so the MRI is step one.

She's a new mom and 

her husband was just deployed.

I spent some time with her on the phone last night.  

She's out of state and away from her family.

She's so scared and all alone.

I know she'd really appreciate your prayers.

Hang in there, T.

You can get through this, sweet girl.

Thanks, friends!
