This award came from L.A. DeVaul. She’s committed herself to five years of yoga. Everyday. In her own unique and insightful way she’s blogging about her journey. She’s also a soon to be published author. Her novel Roxanne in La La Land (A love triangle between a man, a woman, and a dream.) comes out sometime this spring.
So the rules of this award are to list five fascinating things about myself, and pass the award on to five new blogs. Already I’m in trouble with the fascinating part. How ’bout I go for five perhaps not-so-fascinating-things,-but-things-about-me-nonetheless? Agreed? Agreed.
1. The recipe section of this blog is struggling.
2. So is the running section.
3. There’s a good reason for that.
4. I’m pregnant.
5. For the twelfth time.
Food is beginning to taste better. Maybe I’ll be able to photograph it again. When my energy comes back. Running on the other hand …
Five new blogs for you all to check out:
1. Krista Lynne Jensen This lady I’ve got to meet someday. It’s fun to hear her ever changing playlist.
2. Chasing Dreams You’ll find a lot of writers commenting here and info about the publishing journey.
3. Preschool by Stormie Yeah, this isn’t a blog. L. A. might have to revoke my award. It’s a fantastic resource for parents who do preschool for their own children and professional educators alike.
4. Cool Running Yes, I know. This isn’t a blog either, but it has fun forums and people. It’s where I found the Couch to 5K program that started me on my running obsession journey. I’ve done a few virtual races with other runners on this site and learned a lot.
5. Writing Excuses This is a blog format. These 15 minute writing podcasts are how I get my Monday morning breakfast dishes done. The comments are fun and informative, too.
Now you know more about me than you really needed to know on a Monday. Sorry about that.
Thank you, Kate! You made my day! And thanks for the new links. I’ll be checking them out as soon as I finish feeding the horses and making butter. Just kidding. But I do have to walk the puppy. You are so great! : D
I’m so glad you posted these sites! I bookmarked the preschool site and I FINALLY added writing excuses. I’ve been meaning to do that forever. Thank you!
And congrats on your pregnancy!!
Whoo-hoo, Kate!!! How exciting! Sheesh, and this is only my seventh pregnancy! Oh, I’ll be thinking and praying for you!
You’re pregnant? That is fascinating! congratulations! How far along are you?
@ Karen, Fourteen weeks. A few more weeks and I’ll be in the safe zone. If there is one.
Yay! Congratulations!
Forgive me if you get a partial, nonsensical comment. Samuel is a fast and furious mouse clicker …
Thing #5 gave me a lump in my throat. Twelve times. Oh, I pray for a wonderful outcome for you. Take care!
Awesome!! Congratulations! Twelve pregnancies and you still look so young.
It’s okay to do non blogs. I only did four. And you are much better with the hyperlink thing. I’m still rebelling against technology.
@Krista, I hope you enjoy the links.
@Mary, I have half of that preschool website printed out and in a 3-ring binder. I love that site!
@Tamara & Jenni H., Thank you.
@Jenni K. H., I have one of those fast and furious mouse clickers, too. It makes blog posting twice as fun.
@L.A., The pic doesn’t show all my gray hairs. Thank goodness!
And how many times did I use the word journey in that short post! I really should proof these things better. I probably won’t. That’s blogging to me.
Kate, it was so great to meet you at the book signing. I’ve checked out your blog a little. I’m an avid runner and cook too. Looks like we have a lot in common.
Can’t wait to get to know you.
Kristi 🙂
Kristi, I’m so glad you showed up at the book signing. We need to get together soon. Thanks for stopping by. You run? What distance(s) do you like?
