Okay I am still behind in my blogs- I’ve written several I’m hoping to create a few more and then turn them into my editor- so please excuse all of my mistakes this is raw ramblings.

So I have won two awards recently and this is the perfect time to honor them- see blogs come to those who ask *snickers* You love my editor now don’t you, Kilian would have stopped that.

I won the Sunshine award from Patricia Yager Delagrange Patricia blogs about animals I always learn something new from her blog and get to see the best pictures!

I also won the Versatile Blogger Award from the lyrical and poetic Bill Jones Jr.

For both awards I’m supposed to tell you things about myself. I’m going to try and pick stuff I haven’t mentioned before without incriminating myself too badly.

1- I was born in Atlanta, Georgia I left when I was four so I can’t do that sickly sweet southern female manipulation thing, but there are a few words like pecan that I say with a Southern accent sometimes.

2- I love snickers bars- love them.

3- I became vegetarian when I was sixteen while I was working at a health food store. Only time I stopped was during my first pregnancy when I had skin crawling intense food cravings.

4- I had an ancestor who fought in the Civil War named Zopher.

5- My last name is a combo of my first husbands name McKenna and my current hubby Johnson. I hyphenated only to keep my last name the same as my sons. My hubby wanting to be a family also took McKenna so he’s a Mckenna-Johnson and our daughters last name is Mckenna-Johnson.

6- I was sixteen when I fell in love for the first time, his name Michael Lawrence Price- I have no idea where he is now. I wish I knew.

7- A friend taught me how to do tequila shots out of Baby Loony Tunes sippy cups.

8- Muppet Treasure Island is one of my favorite movies. I made my son watch it a lot when he was little.

9- I ran track in High School- I wasn’t a valued member of the team.

10- I cried the first time I saw my son in a suit. He was fifteen, I think, and he looked so grown up I just couldn’t help but tear up. That might be one of his most embarrassing moments.
