My fabulous friend, Aery (Expressions of Me) nominated me for this award! Thanks, love! :)
 
Here are the questions posed by my nominator (and my answers):

Introvert, and by no means shy.
I'm not an extrovert! I am a highly functioning introvert. Do your research!
3. Are you sarcastic?

I play piano by ear but not much.

6. Do you schedule your blog posts or post whenever you can?
Whenever I can, which isn't as often as I would like!
 
7. If you could travel to any place on earth, where would you go?
Flam, Norway.
Flam, Norway, at head of the Aurlandsfjord, a tributary of the 204 kilometres long and up to 1308 metres deep Sognefjord.  Surrounded by steep mountains, roaring waterfalls and deep valleys, Flåm is a paradise. (I spent three nights here in '84.)
8. What is your favorite princess movie?
Ever After.

10. What book(s) are you currently reading?
"Irish Meadows", by Susan Anne Miller. Also studying Psalms in the Bible, and reading a daily devotional called "The Names of Our Lord".
 
 
I don't like when someone asks me my favorite book, song, musical, etc. It depends on what I just read, the day and so many other factors. I love most books I read. Of course some are more special than others but to choose a favorite. I rarely can do that!
Thanks, again, Aery! :)
 
Sincerely,

Some Book-Related Words

Opening a new book & knowing what explorers felt like when they discovered land.

~*~*~*~

That hopeful feeling when starting a new book.

~*~*~*~

Picking the most worn book in the collection, because it's been read so many times it must be good.

~*~*~*~

Maybe it's not about the happy ending, maybe it's about the story.

~*~*~*~

Reading is a conversation. All books talk; but a good book listens as well.

~*~*~*~

Nothing says "I mean business" like using a shopping cart in the bookstore.

~*~*~*~

Guilty As Charged

*slowly raises hand and lowers eyes* Why yes. Yes I do.
It's one of the most important factors that goes into my decision on whether or not we can be friends. :)
