~Awards to pass on~

Thank you Swimmer for this wonderful award, I am behind, but I want you to know I didn't forget...I love the idea of it and Lee  n' Patricia ;-D Thank you for adding me to your list!   I guess with this one, I need to tell you 7 things about me and pass it on to 7 bloggers.   They in turn need to pass it on and reveal 7 things about themselves. (next time I will follow through and list 15)~

1.  I need to research my family genealogy..  I have been asked if I was Puerto Rican, Spanish, Mexican, Indian and Eskimo.  When asked..I just say, I'm Spindian.

2. I have moved 17x in 25yrs.  My favs, Maine, Hawaii, Alaska n' Florida.  In Maine there are three seasons,
Spring, Fall and Winter, Summer can be really short.  In Hawaii, it is Spring and Summer.  Alaska has two seasons: Spring and Winter and Florida has Spring and Summer.

3.  Hubby has a thing about 7's and me 3's; I am always looking for three, 777, I find them a lot.  Will
     I know you have a thing about 7's.

4. Fall is my favorite season; We have a long one here in North Carolina!

5. I never can find a 4 leaf clover; my Mom finds them all the time, usually a dozen+.

6. I was in March 2002 Health magazine;  Something to show n' tell the grandchildren, someday.


7. I still have a New England accent, even though I have been in the south for 7 going on 8yrs. I call home
   and that is it, comes right back.   

 Here is my 15 blog picks for being Versatile:
1. Jennifer- Giggling in the Rain

1. Lisa- Bombastic Bandicoot

3.Kolleen-Heartwingsisters

 Swimmer had a post where you open a book at random to page 56, look at the 5th sentence!   So, I did and this is what it said:     "I looped pink ribbon around the box-a gesture I'd performed a thousand times-tied the bow, then pulled  the ribbon taut against the blade of the scissors to curl it."
Great sentence for  passing awarded gifts on...."The Girl with No Shadow" ~Joanne Harris(sequel to Chocolat)

Thanks for this wonderful awards~xXx

Congratulations, Ms. Spindian!
This is pretty funny, Ellie. I'm here to ask you to drop by my blog when you have time. I have an award for you (and you'll never guess which one it is). :)

P.S. Fall is my favorite season too. We retired from Florida to Colorado to get back to change of seasons (I grew up in Illinois).

Congrats on your award! Thanks for passing the award on to me...I really appreciate!
You have moved 17x in 325 years - that must be a record! And, you have not picked up a southern accent...I pick one up just from talking to someone!
Ella said…
Holly-Funny, Yes I am a vampire; If I have been around that long! lol

I suppose I do have a southern emphasis on some words. I can do a southern accent,British and
New England, that is it...know a few words, in Spanish, French and Hawaiian. Yes, they have their own language...it is beautiful! You are welcome!
Hi Ellie!
A big congratulations on your awards!
Thank you so very much for passing on the Awesome Award to me - you're such a sweetie, thank you so much for thinking of me! Makes me all smiley and warm inside. Recently I did decide to go "award free" on my blog - I got very weepy after I gave out the Trendy blog award and you and one other blogger were the only two to talk about it on your blogs and pass it on - some didn't even acknowledge it on their blog. Silly of me, but it really hurt my feelings. So I thought, that's it - blogging isn't supposed to be painful and I'm a "wear my heart on my sleeve" kind of person.
Please know that I love that you gave me this award. I think your voice is very special and I enjoy you very much. Anyway, so thank you, bunches and bunches for thinking of me and I hope you will understand when I don't pass the award along.
Happy happy 4th to you!
Sally
