One Lovely Blog Award

I have been nominated for the “One Lovely Blog” award. Thanks to “The Black Hat Writer” for the nomination.

A little late at getting all these nominations out, my apologies.  I am quite honored that people do parooz my blog and hopefully enjoy it as much as I love keeping it up.  I understand that I am to list seven facts about me and then nominate fifteen blogs, so here we go…

SEVEN FACTS ABOUT ME:

1.     I love movies.  The mystery, horror, suspense, drama, Lifetime nutty movies, supernatural, a few of my favorites are Jennifer 8, Misery, Silent Fall, The Two Mr. Kissels, Jaws, The Dark Half, Amityville Horror, Friday The 13th…  These are just a few that I love, the list can go on and on.

2.     I started my first job at Glinsky’s Drug Store in Honesdale, PA at the age of 14.  I worked there all through high school.  My nickname at work was jugs because of my voluptuous chest.  The owner seemed to be biased to big chested women.

3.     My mother lived through domestic violence throughout my entire childhood.  I smile all the time because growing up my dad sometimes would drop me off at school and I would ask him “Are you going to kill mom today?” and his reply No!  Then I had to walk in school with a smile.  So my smile is how I got through my entire life.  A lot lies behind my smile.  On a positive note my father went to rehab and mental health, better late than never, and is right now, on the correct medicines and is wonderful to my mom whom he is still married to.  He never abused me but I lived through that my entire childhood.

4.     I joined the United States Air Force in 1992 at the age of 17.  My parents had to sign a waiver for me to join.  That is where I went to basic training and then became a Medical Laboratory Technician compliments of the USAF.  I served until 2001.

5.     I was married to my first husband for 17 years until he passed away, June 29, 2012, from Cardiomyopathy at the age of 39.  We have four children together.  All boys.  Trayveon, Daveon, Shaun, and Noel.  I was a widow at 37.  The plus to this was I seem to deal with death much easier now as opposed to before my loss.  A hard heart.

6.     Two and half years to the date December 29, 2014 my first love flew into Arizona from West Virginia after reconnecting on Facebook, after talking for three months online, never on the phone and he took a chance on me, booked his plane ticket.  We reconnected like we never skipped a day from the first time we met which was February 14, 1996 a long time!  We were married on January 8, 2015.  I love Michael Wriston with all my heart and he taught me that it was okay to fall in love again and be happy again.

7.      I own two geese names Niles and Daphne from Frasier.  Frasier happens to be our family show all time favorite all my sons love Frasier.

I thought it would be hard to bust out seven facts about myself but it was rather easy, yikes!
