So you know the drill, but I will state it here, because I am in compliance.. so here it goes:
• Thank the person who nominated you for this award
• Copy the award and post it in your blog
• Link to the blog of the person who nominated you
• Tell seven interesting things about yourself
• Nominate seven bloggers
• Post links to the blogs of your nominees
Well here goes - seven things you may not know about me:
1) I love sports, but have been much more than a bench warmer in my younger days. I played for 2 girls ice hockey teams and traveled to play in tournaments in Canada and played at The Spectrum in Philadelphia before a Philadelphia Flyers game. I also covered local ice hockey and had a BY Line in the newspaper at the age of 16.
2) I started out my college education in the school of journalism at Penn State, but once I realized how much money journalists did not make made a career change to the drug development industry.
3). The most precious gifts bestowed upon me are my two daughters, Lauren and Allison.. mean more to me than they know.
4). I have a fear of snakes and snow tubing (not necessarily in that order)
5) If I had one wish in all of the world it would be to find a cure for multiple myeloma.
6) I love my parents more than I have ever told them, and want to thank them for everything they have done for me in my life.
7). I love to shop, decorate and entertain...

Barbara, thank you! You're so kind to think of me. Gotta support the fellow Pennsylvania natives, right?
ReplyDeleteSmart move on the journalism... I could barely pay my bills on those newspaper salaries. I loved it so much I didn't care, but had I tried to live on a newspaper salary once I had children... wouldn't have loved it as much.
Barbara, I had no idea you were a hockey star! Hockey is such a HUGE part of our lives right now - my 3 older kids plus my DH all play. And you probably know about our backyard rink...But anyway that is so cool!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, as always, for your sweet comments on my blog!
