T.a.g.g.e.d.

Yes this pic is one of the worst I have taken- hate self portraits- this was before I got my DSLR and understood anything about exposure! LOL The lovely and talented Maria tagged me. Check out her stream- it is amazing!

Now the boring bits-

10 things about me

1. I am a child of the King- Jesus is everything to me. I came to know Him when I was 7 and He has always been there. I have tested His word and found it to be true. Matt Redman says it best , "You never let go

Through the calm and through the storm-Oh no, You never let go-In every high and every low,Lord, You never let go of me"

2. I am a 48yo SAHM of a 19yo DS, 16yo DD and a 3yo DS (surprise).

3. I received a college scholarship to attend any school in Illinois which paid room and board too.

4. I graduated college with highest honors(with God's help!), went 6 years , took honors classes and my GPA was 4.98 out of 5. (I took a river rafting trip and got a B - but it was worth it! ;o))

5. I have a BSN degree from the University of Texas and am a registered nurse with a specialty in trauma nursing.

6. I was Head nurse of a 26 bed ICU and on call I was Assistant Nursing Director over 7 ICU's , recovery room and Burn ICU. Was the youngest one they ever had. lol Now -staying at home is the hardest job I have ever had!

7. lisadozknit- well my other hobby is knitting and do all kinds. I taught lessons for the community at our local library for quite a while.

8. My Dh prayed for a wife and got me- his mom and mine worked at the state together, my mom sent pics home with my now MIL and my DH flew to Texas to meet me from IL. He told me after he got off the plane that he was going to marry me- (I thought yeah right bucko- you are nuts!-do not know you!)

Well I did and moved back to IL! God has a sense of humor!

9. I entered a Scrapartist contest for graphic design- ( it was over a month). Out of hundreds of contestants I made it to the end and was 1 of 4 who sold their design kit in the store. I ended up selling over 500 kits for 1 buck each!

It was the first kit I ever designed! LOL I then was hired and sold my stuff at DSAG for over a year until my Mom got ill.

10. Things I enjoy: hearing my little one tell me he loves me, taking walks, coffee, praise and worship, reading , making new friends, altered art, collecting camera lenses ;o) , shooting flowers !

 

If you made it through- you need an award!

I will be tagging 10 people!
