1. I am a breast cancer survivor. It was never life threatening, it was bilateral and has now been almost 5 years ago, praise God.
2. In recent years, I have learned more about patience and contentment from a friend who says very few things that make sense and never remembers my name. My friend WilloDean Campbell has Alzheimer's. She is my friend's mom, and lives in an assisted center near by. I help her with meals on the weekends and though it would seem I'm there to benefit her, she brings joy and contentment with each and every visit.
3. I have a slight case of cerebral palsy on my right side. I was born with it and while it may slow me down, it certainly doesn't stop me from much. My parent's main streamed me and I think it helped tremendously. I grew up with cousins and friends riding bikes, swimming, and chores just like every one else.
4. I am not a perfectionist. I realize from all your beautiful works (((and i do mean beautiful))) most stampers are. I'm just happy to play in the game. If it's crooked or cut wrong, oh well ~ I more than likely still had fun making it.
5. I love the ocean, there is nothing more descriptive to me of God's awesomeness. The vastness of it all overwhelms me. I gladly welcome the salty breeze of the ocean even during and maybe especially on the hottest days of summer.
6. Some of my dearests friends are gals I grew up with and have known all of my life. I find it comforting to "know and be known."
7. I have a "thing" about big purses and reading glasses. I like to have big tote purses whether they're popular or not. I also like to have lots of different reading or sunglasses tucked inside.
If I must tag others, I'll choose some of my local peeps.
