Honest Scrap Award

My friend Kristina over at 3 Under 4 just gave me the Honest Scrap Award! Thanks Kristina for linking my blog on your sight and giving a few comments about it. Kristina always shares her lively experiences of being a wife and mom, which never cease to make me laugh. :)

Here are the rules for the award:

1. Must thank the person who gave you the award and list their blog and link it.

2. Share "10 Honest things" about yourself.

3. Present this award to 7 others whose blogs you find brilliant in content and/or design, or those who have encouraged you.

4. Tell those 7 people they've been awarded HONEST SCRAP and inform them of these guidelines in receiving the award.

My 10 Honest Things About Myself:

10. I hate making decisions. It does not matter whether its a decision to buy a house, or where to eat out for dinner. I will undoubtedly have a very difficult time making one. (And when I do make a decision, I usually will question whether I made the right one.) :)

9. I have a habit of constantly buying books even though I still have a bunch on my shelf that I need to read.

8. I eat PB and Jelly sandwiches almost every day for lunch.

7. I cannot grow plants for the life of me. I try super hard, but I end up killing them. (My ivy plant is currently in rehab with my "green thumb" co-worker.)

6. I'm addicted to Post-It Notes. Any size, shape, or color........I have them.

5. I'm a Fox News and political junkie. (Thanks Grandma H.)

4. I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up.

3. I have too many hobbies and not enough time to enjoy them: Scrapbooking, Reading, Baking/Cake Making, and Cross-stitching. (Not many people these days do that last one anymore!) :)

2. I collect Cherished Teddies, but I should probably stop because I have so many!

1. I never experienced a real Christmas tree until I got married. Now it has become a wonderful tradition!
