It requires thought and construction as opposed to my normal, nonsensical ramblings that my blog posts usually consist of!
Anyway this award came from Tricia aka SupahWoman (I always loved her spelling of Supah! LOL).
I find myself constantly living under my "ROCK", completely oblivious to the world around me....but when I want a dose of what's going on in the celebrity world....one good post from Tricia is ALL I need and then some! Just the other day Big C dropped a bomb shell on me about Nicolas Cage (aka Nicolas Kim Coppola)!!! I had no idea he was Francis Ford Coppola's nephew and that he'd changed his name to get roles for his acting ability and not his family connections!!!

- Thank and link back to the person who awarded you this.
- Share 8 things about yourself
- Pay it forward to 8 bloggers that you have recently discovered (or not so recently)
- Contact those bloggers and tell them about their awards.
Here goes the neighborhood!:
- I hate big pieces of meat. If my meat is not cut into pieces the size of my thumb, I probably won't eat it.
- I love English chocolate, and if the doctor told me that if I continue to eat chocolate i would surely die. I'd have a hard time making a decision.
- Brown English Muffin: Stands for I'm Brown in skin color (Black on census polls) English because I was born in England (and sometimes speak English!) Muffin well I just needed to end the name with something nice and I just love the way butter melts into the nooks and crannies of an muffin.
- I would love to be a stay at home mom by choice and not my layoffs, but most SAHM I talk to tell me I'd go stir crazy and I don't have the patience for it. Yes Baby C pushes my buttons but if I had the day all planned out, my mind says it would be an enjoyable experience for both of us.
- It took me this many years to realize that cooperate America is full of phonies and that if I don't stop letting them walk all over me I'll get burnt out. Not sure if it's a good thing that the cynicism took so long to come about or a bad thing.
- I claim to be a scrapbooker, but I think I manage two pages a year. I just scrapped a picture of Baby C from 2007! I scrap chronologically at least two pictures for each month and I'm so behind it's saddening.
- I cannot eat apple pie with out ice cream, and even if i have ice cream if there's no way to warm the pie I can't eat it either.
- I've started to cook and bake everything. With Big C being so sick of late with EN, I want to know what's in everything. If I can't pronounce it, we AIN'T eating it. He loves coconut and pineapple anything. So even though he's diabetic I made this Precious Pineapple Cake last week and these Chewy Coconut Cookies last night. Luckily he knows how to eat in moderation, unlike me, if it's there my brain thinks I HAVE to finish it all. So I figured it's a nice treat for him when he has a craving and at least I know what we're ALL eating!
- I hate how my breath smells after drinking coffee so I refuse to drink it at work now that I no longer keep a tooth brush at work. Though if they got Starbucks coffee machines that churned out Caramel Macchiato's I wouldn't care how my breath smelt and would purposely go around breathing in peoples faces just because I was so darn happy!
- I hate it when people as for your input on something and you give it and then they don't like it and as for you to suggest something else, until they do like it. Why ask me? Why not just tell me what "YOU" want from the get go?
There I'm done, and yet the post feels so long I don't think even I'd read it!!! LOL
Hmm so which 8 to target next....
Hmm so which 8 to target next....
- Staci being an elementary school teachers I'm sure she has TONS's of free time! LMAO
- Susie Q, just because she always has pearls of wisdom as opposed to nonsensical rambles like myself.
- Grannie Annie just because I love her so!
- Adrienne just because her life is way more interesting than mine!
- Chrissy for nothing more than to read a witty post!
- Corey just because she'll come a close second to the wittest person I know than Chrissy!
- Don because he's the only man I know that reads my drivel!
- Dawn just so she'll get of facebook and update her blog! LOL
Good luck and may the force be with you!!!
I was honored to be tagged here and I started jotting down my eight things. It was easy to get carried away and the brief notes turned into an epistle. Only two things really jumped out as worth sharing and not too boring and those were: 1.) I have no regrets. 2.) I am happy.
ReplyDeleteThere were many things in your eight that we have in common, however I did know that Nicolas Cage was a Coppola. I also know that he used to have talent and now he's just a big phony. I am afraid that the corporate phonies got to me and burned me out before I caught on and coffee is great but coffee breath is phew.
Love you too:)
WELL, alrighty then! Guess I'll take this challenge :-). I haven't done this type of thing in a while. In fact, I didn't even know that people still read my blog, LOL. Thanks for the tag. I'm on it...
