look what I got!

Jennifer from Life, Crafts, and Whatever nominated me for this:


How awesome is that? This is my first time getting something like this and I am pretty pumped about it! Thanks Jennifer!
Here are the rules that go along with this award:

1. Thank and link back to the person who awarded you this award.

2. Share 7 things about yourself.

3. Award 15 recently discovered great bloggers.

4. Contact these bloggers and tell them about the award!

I know I recently shared a few things about myself so lets see if I can come up with 7 new or different things to keep y'all entertained!

1. I am left handed...I'm the only lefty in my family that anyone knows of, alive or deceased. However, the only thing I do exclusively with my left hand is write. I can eat with either hand, but I cannot brush my teeth or use scissors except with my right hand. Strange, I know. It's a righty's world ;)

2. I love the beach. It doesn't much matter where it is (although given the time and money, I do have preferences) as long as it's warm, sandy, and there's an ocean. I live in a city that lays at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains and while it is pretty, I could take or leave any mountain view or trip. Give me the beach any day.

3. I love cars, especially hot rods, antiques, muscle cars...basically anything you'd see in any type of car show I'm open to. I love the sound of the exhaust, the speed, all the shiny fun...and I can change the oil in my car or a flat.

4. I hate hate hate the lake. Any lake. I will not get in that grody water. I don't mind being in a boat or a pontoon but I'm not getting in the water. Yuck.

5. I love football. I would totally play football if I could. I have a small anger-management issue ;) I want to be on the defense so I can plow into some big dudes and maybe faceplant the guy trying to make the touch down. That sounds like super fun to me.

6. I have never traveled outside the United States. I don't even own a passport. I went to the USVI for my honeymoon, but that's still US soil, so...yeah.

7. I am deathly afraid of bugs. I say bugs to encompass spiders, anything that hops or flies, snails, etc. So stuff that may not technically be a 'bug'...but you get the idea. You put Freddy Krueger on one side of a room, fill the other with bugs...I'll take my chances with Freddy.
