There Be Dragons....

Bish's place

Bish Denham from http://bish-randomthoughts.blogspot.com/ has given me an award, “Dragon’s Loyalty Award”.  One has to love dragons, and I be no different.

There are some requirements to accepting awards, however:  1) tell seven things about yourself; and, 2) award 15 other recipients and notify them of the award.

This is the hard part for me.  All bloggers who read and comment on my blog delight me totally!  Also, I don’t want to put a burden of continuing the award-giving on these bloggers.  So, I will change this a bit.

I hope Bish won’t mind…she is such a dear blogging friend whose writing and perspective I admire.  Award giving is a way of honoring someone whose blogs have impressed the reader.  

Sooooo…. I will post the Dragon award in this post, and invite readers to copy and paste with the URL from where it came, AND write seven things about yourself.

Without any more whining or such, here are seven things about myself:

     1.  I lived in Ireland for a few years, where my husband’s family owned and operated a hotel, Hotel Vienna Woods, Glanmire, Co. Cork.

1985

.

    2.   Seeing a baby turns me into a mound of grandma goo,  “bbbaaaabbbyyyy!”

    3.  Discovering things about my ancestors has become interesting.

    4.  I love to see an old photo, speculate about the frozen images, and write about them.

    5.  I hate summer.

    6.  I love rain.  (Southern California)

Rain, real rain!

    7.  A swimming pool has to be above 80° for me to take the plunge.

Now…whatcha got?

Please use this award as an opportunity to share something about you...I wrote "grandma goo", didn't I?!
