I are Suneshine-ey !!

Lookey what I got....
Dee dad Deee Dah dee deeee...

The 'Sunshine Award' from  Jan at Stand and Stare !!




As a novice award winner I will follow Jans post suggestions of:

"1) Thank the person who nominated you.
Thanks again, Mrs Thrifty (and Jo for 'The Sunshine Award'!!)

2) List seven things about yourself.

3) Pass on the award to fifteen blogs (cheat here if necessary!)

I'm going 'free-style' again here and am passing it on to just five."


So heeere I go...


1) Did that - See way up at the beginning !! ;-}


2) Seven Things...


- # 1 Well, this is going to make me scratch my head- They need to be interesting things, right ?

My great grandparents on my maternal (My Mamas grandparents) side came from Torphichen, West Lothian, Scotland... see the red A on the map from Google-






William Scotland Grant and Marion Walker Oswald were married in Bo'ness and soon after immigrated to Pennsylvania where he was a mining engineer- same as he was in Scotland.


-# 2  My most favorite movies were made before 1960... I can re-watch any thing Cary Grant ever made: North by Northwest, Monkey Business,
 Arsenic & Old Lace, and People Will Talk are my fav's.

-# 3  I have really big feet... womens size 12W and I mostly buy mens shoes- size 10...

-# 4  I will paper mache' just about anything that I get my hands on... Everything is better with a coat of Mod-Podge !! 

-# 5  My right ear has seven piercings... If I put earrings in them all my head Tilts to the Right.(uh huh- it really will !!)

-# 6  I am very warm natured. Everyone around me will be bundled in socks and boots and wooly coats. I will be warm and red-faced in a cotton sweater and clogs (no socks)...

-# 7  I am ambidextrous. I can switch hands while doing anything- hammering, stirring, typing, firing a gun. My late brother was the same. We used to drive folks in our family crazy !!

Whew !!
That was harder than I thought it was going to be...

3) of the rules- "Pass on the award to fifteen blogs (cheat here if necessary!)"
    Well, I am going to cheat !! I will leave it up to my Blog Followers to grab ahold of this award if they like !!
Go Ahead...
Feel Free...

You knowYou Really Want to !!

Again... Thanks to Jan at Stand & Stare for this Cheerful Award !!

xoxo

Congrats on the award! - I am kind of ambidextrous too but not like you. I write with my left hand but do almost all other things with my right hand. Sometimes I don't know what hand I use for a certain thing until I actually try it out...weird huh? xo
