Another post from the past that I thought would be fun to share!
But first let's pick a winner from the vase....
And it's Happy Cottage Quilter!
This is the apron of the day that I will be sending her!
There is an under layer of organza but actually it's reversible.
This post was from May 2009:
My ABC's
I saw that Jen, Miss Punkie Pie blog, did this over on her blog recently,
so I am going to follow along. I started this last week and since today I have a camera with a dead battery, then I think that this would be the day for:
The ABC's of Me
A- Age: 54. Yikes! Too honest?
B- Bed size: California King. I love to go to bed. My entire bedding set is from Moda Home. Ummm!
C- Chore you hate: Dusting. A never ending annoyance.
D- Dog's name: Hannah. Our Labradoodle.
E- Essential food/item: Bread. Hot fresh baked bread!
F- Favorite color: Of all time? Sage Green. Favorite color today? Shabby Pink.
G- Gold or silver: Gold in Winter and Silver in Summer
H- Height: 5'8"
I- I am: patiently waiting for Spring!
J- Job: Office admin. & accounting assistant for Environmental Consultants.
K- Kids: 3 plus 2 plus 1. I had 2 pregnancies, but had twins so, 3 children -boys. Remarried, 2 more sons (all the same age group) and now I am about to have a DIL.
L- Living arrangements: We live in a modern farmhouse style home on 3 acres. Very rural area.
M-Mom's name: Donna. You would love her.
N- Nickname: I have had several. I'm one of those people who get tagged with names and in fact Sinta is (or was) a nickname, but I made it legal once upon a time.
O- Overnight hospital stay: Lots, watching over my hubby.
P- Pet peeve: Well, manners. People need to remember manners. I'm not formal or stuffy by any means but common courtesy is important!
*** There was this receptionist at the dentist office who never would say hi or greet you in any way. I always made a point of saying hi, just to see if she ever would respond. One day I came in and after saying hi and getting no response I said...
oh, you poor thing... laryngitis? It worked. I got a greeting from then on. ***
Q- Quote from a movie: A heart is not judged by how much you love; but by how much you are loved by others. Wizard of Oz.
But on the other hand- "I'll have what she's having" is a good one... from When Harry Met Sally.
R- Right or left handed: Lefty
S- Siblings: 2 sisters. One older, one younger.
T- Time you wake up: I get up by 5 and on the weekend I sleep in until... 6ish.
U- Unique thing about your car: My car is kind of "beefy". Toyota 4 Runner. Tinted windows and the extra grills (deer protection).
V- Vegetable you hate: PEAS.
Peas are the reason I got kicked out of school (the first time).
That was Nursery School!
W- Ways you run late: I always wait until the last minute to get ready for work.
I hate to leave my sewing room.
X- X-rays you've had: MRI's are the most notable x-rays. Back problems. I always take my stuffed bunny with me to the doctors for these big events.
Y- Yummy food you make: I make a killer Fettuccine Alfredo. Second place is my Quiche.
Z- Zoo favorite: I think Elephants are amazing and Giraffe's are beautiful animals.
There I am in a nutshell!
My sweet dog went to puppy heaven and I haven't had back issues for years now!
I was in a car accident a few weeks ago... and my car is history!
Oh, and even though Z is for Zoo. I really don't like zoo's. I think that they are just
pretty prisons for wildlife.
Leave a comment and I will have one more apron to giveaway this week.
Then I will be looking forward to the AYOS parade!
15 friends stopped by to chat:
love your old post and isn't it fun to look back......now I feel like I also know you much better....so, that is the ABC's and loved them!
I pretty impressed with how much we have in common; twin boys, beffy truck, accounting at a bank and make a fabulous quiche and of course fabric and quilting. H
Thanks for the ABC's, i loved it. Have a great day.
I remember that post. :-) Made me smile then and now.
woo-hoo!! Thank you SO much! The apron is beautiful!
I loved reading about you!!!

As I look at your postings all I can say is, the more things change the more they stay the same…and that can be a good thing. Congratulations on your anniversary and thank you for contests.
I enjoyed reading your ABC's from 2009 and seeing how life has changed a bit. Congrats on your blogiversary.

Cool blast from the past fun facts.
That was a fun read Sinta!
I like you a lot - all pretty worthwhile answers... Thank you so much for all you do for us. Judy C in NC
I enjoyed reading your ABC's as I wasn't a follower the first time around. I agree with you about both common courtesy and zoos.
How fun, to get to know you better.
