Ok, Nellie at www.nelliedurand.blogspot.com tagged me - I'm not yet confident of all of you bloggers out there, to tag any of you, but here's 7 things about me.
1. I am very stubborn. Even when someone tells me to do something I will love, my immediate inclination is to say “NO”. I can’t help it!
2. I know how to sail a large boat. I studied navigational techniques, and sailed in the Gulf of Mexico, Tampa Bay, Chesapeake Bay, and around the Abaco Islands.
3. I overwhelm myself with too many visual images and ideas and then cannot function.
4. I once worked in the Radioactive Waste Industry. It was my job to track and document radioactive uptake to the body of the workers in the plant.
5. Monday is my favorite day of the week.
6. I LOVE the thrill of learning something new - a new quilt pattern, a new design, being surprised, having my brain expand and that marvelous feeling of being drugged with happiness. Sometimes I think this is why I have so many UFOs – I am looking for the ‘thrill’.
7. I finally learned (in my 50s) that men are NOT smarter than women.
(Ok I have a Number 8 Thing).
8. I MUST be by myself on occasion
I am a quilter - a retired widow living in the Nebraska Panhandle. I am surrounded by beautiful semi-arid ranch country, and treeless hills and fields under incredibly wide blue skies, located far from the upheaval found often in large towns or cities. I am blessed to have delicious time to quilt and to appreciate my peaceful moments in an unpeaceful world.
Thanks for "playing" and letting us know you a bit better.
ReplyDeleteVerrry interesting. But then, I already knew you were. (And ain't it fun the way we Oak Ridge girls glow in the dark? Nellie probably glows a little too.)
