First all, the coffee is French Roast!! Yum!! I even have flavored creamers if you like. Some Zucchini Bread and we are good to go!
I received The Versatile Blogger award from Retired and Crazy . Which was very sweet and I didn't realize I was so versatile!! Ha! Of course there is a little catch...you have to tell 8 things about yourself that is heretofore unknown! Gosh! What can I say; but I will give it a go!
1. I trained to be a secretary in high school and my first job was as secretary in a construction firm. Between the proposals and cat calls I decided to go to something more professional. So I opted to work for the State of Ohio as a legal secretary in the Workman's Comp. Department. Boooorrriiiinnngggg!!!
2. I have asthma! I use daily meds and am having no problems this year! Whew! I do use oxygen at bedtime most of the time. Sometimes I just don't feel like wearing that tube.
3. I love shoes!! My closet is full; my door has a hanging shoe holder and it is full and I have two under the bed storage containers and they are both filled. Some doubly so!! Ha! And I just won a fabulous pair of boots on eBay!! Woot!!
4. My art and doll studio is in my home. So if I am not working on babies...I am working on art...if not doing either of them, I am playing outside in the garden or watching TV. I do love my TV!!
5. Football and Baseball...love them both! Watch as many games as we can and root for many teams. My heart is still in Cleveland; so I root for the Browns and the Indians. Sigh! They don't win much. I also like the Bears, the Cowboys, the Colts and the Vikings. Then there is the Red Sox, and the Yankees. So you see! Quite the fan!!
6. I currently walk 4.5 miles almost every day. My weight has gone down about 160 pounds. Most of you know that but I like to brag! Ha!
7. My mom and one of my brothers still live in Ohio. I am going to visit them on October 6th. My other two brothers are coming to Ohio as well so we can all be together for a couple of days. Very cool!! My mom doesn't have internet connections so I am going to have to improvise. Sigh!!
8. We are going to move down to southern New Mexico in 4 or 5 years. Both Dr. John and I want to teach and there is a wonderful university in Las Cruces!! Sooooo....we decided no to retire; just to change directions. We are looking forward to this.
That's it...eight. Whew!! That wasn't easy. I know I am now supposed to pick 8 people but I decided I hate to follow the rules. So I would love to hear more about you...take the award and go for it.
I also wanted to share my latest baby with you. Her name is Maggie and she is quite the little girl!!
I just love her to pieces. So I have completed five to add to the doll show! That makes a total of 13 I believe. And since I have three shows to do...I hope that will be enough. I still want to do some mini's. So I will keep you posted.
Also, I just passed my two years as a blogger. Well, two years and two months. Ooops! Kind of went past my anniversary. So to celebrate, I am going to have a giveaway and I will tell you more about it on Sunday or Monday. Stay tuned and spread the word.
Have a magical and blessed day!
Hugging you
SueAnn

the only problem i have is the steelers are not on that list...understandable with the clevelans connection...smiles. love the new baby!
I love your list, SueAnn!!!! You are such fun!!!! And ya know what? I have severe allergies...and a chronic cough...so I understand a little about the asthma, too. But you live in a great place for health!! The teaching at the University sounds fabulous!!! So excited for
you even though it is a few years off!!! Love the doll!!! You are so incredibly talented!!! Love you!!!! Janine XO
P.S. YOU DESERVE TO BRAG!!!!!!!!!
Wow! I'm impressed with all you do. I'm assuming you know shorthand. So do I. Lost art, although I still use it in my notes. Fun to try and remember it sometimes. Football/baseball/dolls/blogging/moving/walking? Losing 160 pounds. You go, girl!
I will try to forgive you for not having the Phillies on that baseball list. But the Yankees? I can not forgive.
4.5 miles a day! That is a lot. I do admire you for walking that much every single day.
I love lists and "getting to you" one's are the best :) Hurray for baseball! And for walking.
Maggie is ADORABLE!!!! I love her little fat cheeks and plump hands - your attention to detail is incredible!
You're doing a great job with these baby dolls, but I have to say they creep me out, and thoroughly so. (^v^)
(For the records, I like kids.)
Yay........ a doll named after me!
You obviously make the faces and arms from slip. I wonder if you make your own mould or use someone elses?
It is a fascinating hobby.
Congrats on being a 2 year blogger! I have stopped counting now............
Maggie X
Nuts in May
Wow, awesome baby, looks so real!
I love reading about other bloggers, things you would never guess!
have fun with your family
xoxo
betty
Awesome meme for telling us more about you! You deserve that award. Have a great Friday night!
I really enjoyed reading this and getting to know you better. I also loved the fact that you listed the Vikings as one of your favorite teams. :) Thanks for sharing about your life. I hope you and yours have a most wonderful weekend. XX
Happy Weekend, dear SueAnn!!!! Love you!! Janine XO
