Queen for a Day

Sarah tagged me for this award -- my first! Thanks, Sarah!

For this meme ...

1. List seven things that make you awe-summm!

2. Pass the award onto seven bloggers you read religiously.

3. Tag those seven bloggers.

So, here goes ... Seven Things That Make Me Awe-summm!

1. I am married to a wonderful man, who also happens to be a graduate student, and we are surviving living the trial ordeal journey of graduate school together rather well. (At least I haven't been institutionalized. yet.)

2. 3. 4. 5. I am building four cathedrals. at the same time. How awe-summm is that!




6. I am able to home school AND work (from home) full time (25 hours per week) in order to help with said graduate school journey -- pretty awesummm. (I don't recommend this, however.)

7. I am a Defender of the Bond [of Marriage] -- what an awe-summm job title (and responsibility!).

Now the problem is who to tag -- I've noticed that many I read religiously have been tagged before. So here's seven blogs I read, and if you've already received this award, I second it, and I dispense you of your responsibility to participate again!
