So how cool is this?? I got an award (my first award in forty—never mind—since my freshman year of high school) from another blogger who’s way more awesome than I ever thought of being!
Thanks Andie Duncan! And here’s the answer to Andie’s questions, giving the rest of you all information about me that you’d otherwise be able to live a very long time without knowing!
1. What’s your VISA number? (Hmm, that probably won’t fly…) Ok, what age would you like to repeat and why? Repeat? Or camp at for awhile? Hmmm, if I could do it without any attendant emotional trauma, 49 was awfully good. I was running a jillion miles a week, my clothes fit AMAZINGLY, and I could still play and sing for hours! Plus, there was only enough skin on my neck to go around it once.
2. If you had twin turtles, what would you name them? Twin turtles? Ponies or Labrador Retrievers for sure, but turtles? Wow, how about ‘Sit’ and ‘Stay’. Or maybe ‘Martin’ and ‘Gibson’.
3. ‘Eh?’ or ‘Huh’? ‘What was that’?
4. What did you have for lunch yesterday? A half of a cantaloupe with some yoghourt in it. Profoundly boring I know, but easy to pack to work and allowed me to have the 2 glasses of Gamay Noir last night with no caloric guilt.
5. What would you like to say to your grade 12 English teacher now? Red, white, or Rose? Oh, and thanks ever-so-much for the utter freedom of expression you gave me in your classes!

Thanks so much for the nomination! 🙂
You’re so very welcome! Your blog is beautiful and inspiring!
Ok I’ll bite… What was the Freshman award for? A good bottle of vino says it was something for home-ec, music, or something won by popular vote of other students. Hmmmm? Am I a winner? 😉
Wow! Do I get to pick the wine?
It was an FFA (Future Farmers of America to the un-initiated) Foundation award for outstanding first-year member in our chapter. I was the first girl to ever receive one, and the first girl ever to hold office too, so it was kinda cool. I never took home-ec, and I was sooo not one of the popular girls–quite the opposite, actually.
Lol! Darn! I was so sure! I forgot about the possibility of a “green thumb” leadership award. Should have known… And yes- choice is yours, dear. I honor my bets. 🙂
