Hi there! Amy over at The Idea Room is hosting this link up party.
(I tried to post the pretty button, but it wasn’t working…so use the links in the text to get there)
Sounds fun, and I’m stuck at home with icy roads today (in a place where it NEVER snows!), so I thought I’d write a few tidbits about me.
In late high school and early college I would never wear matching socks. They were always bright colors, but I always liked turquoise and hot pink worn together best. The last year or so I’ve pretty much grown out of it, but when I need a bit of cheering up, I will put on a non-matching pair of socks! :)
I didn’t like pink until I was at least 18. Now it’s one of my more dominant colors in my closest.
I thought sewing, cooking, and all that “domestic stuff,” was ridiculous until I started dating my husband. I didn’t start sewing until a little over a year ago, and it quickly became my favorite hobby EVER. I love how you can make anything, or alter clothing, specific to the way YOU want when you sew things yourself! :)
I play the clarinet, and love it. I wish I could play the piano well enough to play for people to sing to.
In our 2.5 years of marriage, my husband and I have moved about 8 times. (You stop counting at about move 5). A good 2/3’s of our wedding gifts are in hubby’s parents basement. We’ll open them up and use them when we buy a house…someday. :)
I like four wheeling with my husband, but can’t drive a stick shift to save my life.
I love walking. In high school I would walk to work in 110 degree weather just so I could walk. (I’m not nearly that crazy anymore!)
I love writing and receiving old fashioned letters. And I love typing and writing…hence the blog. :)
Well I’m sure that’s more than enough about me! I hope you all are enjoying a fabulous holiday season!
I played clarinet in high school too! :) And old fashioned letters are the best way to go!! Stopping by from The Idea Room link up!
ReplyDeleteCute post. And I love the apron and purse you made. That purse looked like a major challenge, but you did great! I went to sew a pillowcase for Gage a few nights ago and my sewing machine started practically eating the material. Okay, that may be a little exaggeration, but still, it was bad. Guess a new sewing machine needs to be added onto my wish list.
ReplyDelete8 moves in 2.5 years? Wow! We've moved 3 times in 8 years and even that's too many for my liking!
ReplyDeleteStopping in from the idea room :)
Wow, that's a lot of moves! but, I love moving so that's cool.
ReplyDeleteHello! I'm a new follower from the linky party! Your blog is so cute.
ReplyDeleteI'm getting into all that "domestic stuff" now for kind of the same reason. I just got a sewing machine so I'm super excited to start sewing! I love the fact that now I can make personalized things for people at a much cheaper price than buying something that will only mean so much, ya know?

Thanks for linking up. That button doesn't work half the time...! I love to walk too. I laughed about the domestic stuff! I was the exact same way. I am sure my mom thought I was a lost cause!
ReplyDeleteMy brother just moved to Washington just in time for his house almost to be flooded! Hope you are surviving down there is such horrible weather:) Missing you here where it is even colder! (DO you have your student teaching placement yet?)
