Honest Scrap Award!



I have been given this award by Tania at Out Back. What a fun award. Thank you Tania, I appreciate it. I'm sorry it has taken so long to finish my post, or choose who to pass it onto. I am very happy with who I chose.

To keep this award, I must complete the following:
1) Say thanks and give a link to the presenter of the award
2) Share 10 honest things about yourself
3)Present this award to 7 others whose blogs I find brilliant in content and/or design or those that have encouraged me
4) Tell those 7 people they have been awarded HONEST SCRAP and inform them of these guidelines in receiving it.

Here are 10 honest things about me.

1. When I look at real estate sites I have a thing for the houses that need work, I think I can see the life that used to be lived in them

2. I am not really sure how to drive an automatic car, have realised that may be just as big a disadvantage

3. Have trouble getting rid of things that are familiar when decluttering

4. My favourite TV channel is the Lifestyle Channel

5. I love eating lychees, prefer cold, which is strange as I don't insist on things being cold usually

6. I am really really into tea light candles

7. I can carry in a very large, or rather, very high folded basket of washing from the line, packed just as high again from memory

8. Thinking about my eldest child and I can cry very easily, hopefully I won't disgrace myself at his graduation

9. If I was to travel I think it would be to the Laura Ingalls Wilder sites in the US

10. What I wanted to be when I grew up as a little girl? A Primary School teacher.


Seven blogs brilliant in content and/or design or those that have encouraged me:

1. A Wise Woman Builds Her Home (recommended to me by this post at A Collection of Days
2. A thousand words... and then some
3. Diary of a Stay at Home Mom
4. GILLYBEAN
5. Gobbler's Run
6. Hill upon hill
7. Mom's Musings

Thank you, Linda, so much! I will try to do this post by the end of the week.

Let's see...
#2 amazes me! Usually, people are nervous about driving a manual transmission car. Don't worry; you'll do no harm constantly trying to depress the clutch pedal when you drive automatic!

#3 is true of me as well. Sometimes my older children will clean up for me and tell me, "Don't look, Mom!"

#5 I have never tasted lychees.

#9 Please check out a book by Ralph Moody, such as Little Britches. He writes similar stories of pioneering childhood, from a little boy's perspective. I think you will enjoy those stories!

Hope you have a lovely day. :)

You are welcome Amy.

You are also welcome Joyce. I think another person suggested Ralph to me also a little while back. They don't have it at the library. I could check again. I know I hope to put in another order with the Christian bookshop Koorong again in the next six months.
