Eight things about me...
I saw this on Lady Tess today, which I discovered randomly, liked the idea, and decided to participate...
Here are the rules:
1. Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
2. People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.
3. At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
4. Don't forget to leave them a comment telling them they're tagged, and to read your blog.
Eight Things About Me
1 - I designed and made my own wedding gown in 1996, using less than $100 in materials. Here I am, with my Dad...
2 - I collect old sewing books from the late 1800's because I love them so much... They have a real energy and meticulousness about them that is just incredible!
3 - I feel that I have a guardian angel with me at all times, and have felt that way since I was a little girl.
4 - Although I don't believe in astrology, I almost never get along with Pisces... What does that mean???
5 - I receieved an unsolicited bear hug from Mike Tyson when I was about 17 years old. He thought I was "pretty", he said.
6 - I believe love is a vital ingredient in all creative endeavors, and that is what gives any work of art its "voice".
7 - I believe resilience is the single most important ingredient for success. It forces you to redefine failure in your life.
8 - That I label all of the cords to my computer and sewing machinery, so I know which outlets and ports they are each plugged into.
Choosing eight people is tough, since they all need to have blogs, right? This is the part I can't do - my friends don't blog, really... but if you are reading this, want to participate AND have a blog, let me know...
