Kreativ Blogger!

Jan 13, 2010 by Rochelle

My dear online friend Jen at True Confessions of a Scrapbooker has nominated me for a “Kreativ Blogger” award. Thanks Jen! You are truly awesome.

In the same spirit as Jen and the people before her, I’m going to nominate a few people I think deserve this award as well.

Ally @ Ally B Speakin. This girl is hilarious and lives in my own backyard. She’s writes truly hilarious posts and deserves this award for simply thinking of the topics that she does. She also treats her pets like children, just like me, and that is awesome.

Amanda @ Magnanimouse. A friend from real life that moved away to Seattle. Get this…she’s an actual artist (for real), an IT whiz, an amazing pastry chef, and a soon to be mom. She is also the queen of snark, and I love that about her.

Danielle @ My Blog, My Life. Another friend from real life that I knew in college. She’s recently started her own Photography business and is an amazing photographer! She’s also a kick ass stay at home mom to two adorable boys. She can also whip up a mean scrapbook page that makes me jealous and eager to imitate.

Jen @ McDougall Photography (A Day In the Life). Jen is my Project 365 hero. She stuck to the program so well and is keeping it up. She’s also one of the best digital scrapbookers I’ve come across. She does all this with three kids under the age of three and a part time job. She is also completely hilarious and I know her originally from my EJami life, where she can make the snarkiest and most hilarious comments on a television show that there has ever been.

Laurel @ A Year With the Yorks. A fellow Creative Memories scrapbooker, Project 365er, and over all fabulous lady. I love her site and to follow along almost every day. Her journaling is great and I love her pictures!!

And now I’m supposed to tell you seven things about myself that you may not know. That’s part of getting the award. Although I’m not sure what’s left to share since I’m pretty out there already. I’ll give it a go…

7 Things:

1. I have a Snuggie and it is one the best things I got for Christmas. I freaking love it and feel bad for making fun of the concept for so long.
2. I once considered becoming a nun. Seriously. It was when I was younger and just entered college. It was actually rather sad and pathetic, and not for the best reasons. I essentially thought that I would never fall in love, so why not just love the church instead of dealing with that rejection.
3. My grandfather and I had a really special bond when I was a kid, and up until he died in 1998. I was unabashedly his absolute favorite grandchild, which was awkward for my siblings. When I think of unconditional love, I think of how he loved me. He also loved to write poetry, and I didn’t know that until after I was writing my own. Strange how things pass down.
4. My female intuition is pretty in tune. I can sense and predict things quite often that those around me don’t, particularly men.
5. Speaking of men, I love them! Not in a slutty way, but I tend to run with boys more than girls. Maybe that’s why I succeed where I work, but it’s always been that way. I am far more comfortable around men than I am around women.
6. That being said, I absolutely hate hate hate the division of the sexes. I do not like “Girls Nights”, or the fact that I can’t participate in a “Guys Night” because I don’t have the right equipment. This tendency in our society (and I’m sure around the world), infuriates me and is a huge point of stress for me.
7. I still have dreams where I have to protect my little sister from serious harm. I used to have nightmares about that when I was a teenager and she was just a little kid and I would have to babysit her a lot.
