"Congratulations. I just gave you the 'Daisy Award.'"
Huh? The Daisy Award? She told me to visit her blog to find out what she meant.
I did...and found that I need to share seven unusual or weird things about myself.
The "rules" say I need to link this back to the giver (Amy) and pass it on to three other bloggers.
I usually don't participate in forwards or surveys...but because it's Amy, here I go.
1. I take two showers a day. I've done this ever since high school. It was vital on my mission in humid Australia...and it's neccessary now in humid Virginia.
2. I am a clean freak. I hate clutter, my desk is organized, I like to do the dishes, and I don't mind cleaning the bathroom or vacuuming.

3. I don't like cake...which is a little weird because I have a huge sweet tooth. I would rather eat french fries, a donut, a piece of pie, or a candy bar than have a piece of cake. There is one expection: Ukrop's yellow cake with chocolate icing.
4. When I was young, I begged my parents for a dog. For years I asked for a dog. I also asked them to go camping. Now I can't stand dogs and hate camping.
5. My favorite TV show of all time is "I Love Lucy." As a kid, I watched it every summer afternoon at 1.00 on channel 13.
6. When I was a sophomore at BYU-Idaho, I studied 70 of Elder Jeffrey R. Holland's talks and wrote a one page paper on each. It changed my life. Years later, I met him and told him about the project. He said, "Oh, you poor soul. You deserve a week at the beach after that torture."
7. I wish I could go bare foot or wear flip flops everywhere. I hate wearing shoes. One day, when I was about 13, I went on a long run without with my cousin Amy...and didn't have any shoes on. My feet were black! In Australia, I was barefoot or wore flip flops every single day. It was awesome. I also think shorts and T-shirts should be acceptable business attire.
So....now that you know seven random things about me, I pass "The Daisy Award" to....
Chelsea - my crafty, fun sister-in-law.
Elaina - our Jamba Juice, "Let's Make a Deal" friend.
Allison - my New York, kick-ball-playin' cousin.
Congratulations!
I learned some things about you - how fun. The bare feet...oh, it still makes me laugh! You're a daisy if you do!
ReplyDeleteYou should have shared some of your nocturnal adventures--sleep walking, sleep talking, sleep m&m eating, sleep singing. You're as much fun asleep as you are awake.
ReplyDeleteWe have the same favorite kind of cake! We're like best cake friends!
ReplyDeleteI don't really like cake either and I don't have a sweet tooth. However that Ukrops cake is the BOMB!
ReplyDelete1) I liked your post on adversity - it was exactly what I needed to read today - but when I went to comment it was gone...I don't know why - but I'm glad I was still able to see it.
ReplyDelete2) I love Holland - and that totally sounds like something he would say!
