5 nice things that happened to you lately
1. Received a fabulous package from Snowbear with lots of fun little goodies including a Sally Mavor Book , mags and a greeting card illustrated with FELT!(will post this shortly)
2. Someone made an offer on our house and we are under contract. Closing will be on Sept. 1 if all continues to go well, fingers crossed! House was only on the market a week. I know that is very lucky.
3. My husband told me I'm gorgeous eventhough I'm feeling like a total hippo right now. This is why I so dislike seeing pictures of myself. It's always a shock. =o(
4. I had a coffee /bookstore chat with a fellow illustrator and friend , heather of humblearts. What fun to get away and just gab!
5. My kids were playing and shattered a window (right after we signed contracts on the house!) and my father in law paid for the repair. Thanks Popsy-poo, that really helped. Most importantly, no one was harmed! That was very nice,thank you God.
5 MP3s on your playlist
I haven't used my mp3 player in a while so I'll play , " 5 things about me that you may not know"
1. I'm am half british and ever since I was little I have used an american accent around friends but a british one around my mum and dad. When I go to England however, I'm always mistaken for an Australian because I mix the two so much. (american/british)
2. I am a huge fan of Wallace and Grommit or anything that has to do with Clay Mation. And yes, I have been known to sit and watch "JoJo's Circus" and "The Koala brothers" even if the kids are at school.
3. I have a terrible problem of smiling when someone tells me bad news. It is the weirdest , most horrible quirk and i've passed it on to my oldest son. Really, it's awful. If I am told some terrible news, my mouth automatically starts to smile and then suddenly right after, I cry. Now what is that about?
4. I have worn glasses and contacts since I was 12 yrs old and would desperately love to get laser eye surgery but just too scared to do it! Oh to be able to open my eyes in the morning and everything not be a blur!
5. And finally, My face shows ALL of my emotions. What you see is what you get. As you can guess, I will not be playing poker when we move to Vegas!
Okay, I'm going to tag my critique buddies. No obligation to play, but I sure hope that you do.
Yay Clay-mation!

Roz, I really enjoyed reading through this! On the "five things about me" section I have the same problem as you (# 3) - I don't know WHY that is, but the corner of my mouth turn up. sooo wierd and embarrassing to boot!

Hey Roz! Nice getting to know more about you. Congratulations on the house/move! I'll admitt that I've watched (and enjoyed immensely) JoJo's Circus and Koala Brothers too. They're both really good shows and the characters are soooo beautiful (especially Koala Brothers). BTW, there aren't any kids at my house!

Oh! I do that too (smile at bad news) and I hate it! I thought I was the only one who did it until I passed it on to MY son! Perhaps it's genetic?
Yay for Wallace and Grommit (get off me cheese!)
