An award!

I got this amazing award from Tracy over at her blog called Pink Purl. It seems I have to include a few weird and random facts about myself. This may take some consideration, because though I am sure there are many, I tend to think of myself as normal! Oh how wrong we can be about ourselves.

1. I have always been aware of my dreams and they are almost always a bit insane. For years of my life, I had dreams of spiders chasing me which I think stems from my father torturing me as a child. Thanks Dad.

2. I can not speak well. My mouth can never articulate what my brain is thinking. It makes me feel like an idiot.

3. Due to the above, public speaking terrorizes me.

4. I love tea and my current obsession is Chai tea which my daughter 'discovered' with a friend. Imagine my surprise when she called and asked if I had Chai tea! But of course. So now we share a cup once and a while.

5. I fancy myself a world traveler but have never been over seas. My farthest trip is to Florida and as far out west as Chicago. Not very adventurous. We do plan to go to Alaska this summer though. But this leads me to my next fact.

6. I spent a summer of my youth following the Grateful Dead. The best time of my life, truly. Shame I can't remember to much. :)

7. I am trying to come up with weird but its not happening. I will get back to this last fact.

So there you have it. Thanks Tracy for sending me this award and for writing an inspiring blog for the world to read.

LOVED reading your list! The spider thing is interesting...I read that according to dream interrpetation spiders can mean anything from creativity or insecurity depending on the the spiders are actually doing--wow. Alaska--oh, I hope you get there!! I can't speak either...my brain is way ahead of my mouth, so twisted goop just comes out of my instead. I'm better at writing ;o) Oh, LOVED the NYC photos--very interesting, clever angles! Hope you have a great week, my friend! And thanks for stopping by my place ((HUGS))
