Hi Mary,
That was so fun to learn more about you!!!I need to get myself to stay with one project and finish it. I also need to do a new post and giveaway for my 100th post...and it's another busy weekend. I hope the package is there, or Friday. I hope nothing got broken. I think you are never too old to learn to drive and make up is FUN, just a little even:) It's the girly girl in me:) Have a great weekend.
Warmly,
Deb
That was fun! I read them backwards...I don't know why...I think I just couldn't wait to see what you were saying about yourself by then.
I love to color too. When the kids were young and would get a coloring book and crayons I got my own set. Loved it!
You sound like someone that would be relaxing to be around and a very loyal friend.
