My First Award.......

My dear friend Tiff, from Making Room For Serendipity has tagged me with this little meme AND given me my very first bloggy award! Thanks so much Tiff!

Okay, first things first...These are the rules which need to be passed on:

1).Link to the person who tagged you on your blog.
2).Post the rules of the tag on your blog.
3).Write 6 random things about yourself.
4).Tag 6 people at the end of the post.
5).Let each of the people know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
6).Let tagger know that your tag entry has been posted.

Six Random Things:

1. When I start thinking about something...I just can't turn it off!!! I remember being a speaker at a women's conference and my co-speaker told me in the middle of the night, "Stop it, I can hear your brain from over here!!" LOL
2. I am a true Diet Pepsi from Taco Bell-aholic. There must be a 12-step (or drink) program somewhere!!!
3. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE working with women in the crafting business....especially the ones that are starting out. I like nothing better than late night phone calls to brain storm about their businesses or shows.....
4. I am a bonified craftaholic as I want to try everything. I know that not everything is going to be my cup of tea---but each new craft teaches me about a new technique or material to use, and that is great info to use on the crafts I do love.
5. I was the little girl in the crinoline slips and sweet dresses that sang solos in church on Sunday mornings. I remember our minister coming to our house to teach me new songs to sing for the services....sadly, now they would request that I didn't sing....LOL Can't get into the crinoline slips anymore either.....LOL
6. I struggle with being angry at the Christian family that I love for some of their prejudices and exclusions.....that need for us all to be "cookie cutter" christians and not the individuals that God created us to be. I am not talking about sinfulness...I am talking about individuality.


Tagging these awesome bloggers, but please don't feel pressured to play along, I promise it won't hurt my feelings any ;o). And if there's anyone else that feels like snagging the meme, please feel free, it was tough for me to pick just 6 people when I read so many great blogs every day!

1. Jen over at Knitting Jen
2. Tina over at Giggles and Grace
3. Teresa over at Plumwater Cottage
4. Vee over at A Haven For Vee
5. Mandy over at mandythompson.com
6. Lisa over at The Preacher's Wife

And now...TA DA...the award!!!

Thanks again Tiff....I am truly honored that you chose me!!!!
Hugs,
Debbie
