Thank you Ninotaziz for giving me this wonderful award.  I truly love your blog, and I am honored to recieve this award from you!

These are 7 things about me:

1.  I am blessed to work at a local library, but I am too busy to read. :-)

2.  My greatest lessons in life have been learned the HARD way.

3.  Being a Grandmother has expanded my whole view on love.

4.  My favourite word is HOPE.

5.  I eat like a man, but gain weight like a woman.

6.  Even Hallmark commercials can make me cry like a baby.

  7. That's interesting, because I was just at Ninotaziz's blog, and wrote a long response to her fascinating story about Aster, but when I hit "submit", nothing kept happening, so I gave up. This comment format and my old comp often squabble.

    Anyway, congratulations on you award, Carrie, and I love your list. I totally relate to 2, 5 and 6! And 1 as well, at one time.

    I want to thank you for your comment at my Word Garden. Thanks for visiting!
