How nice to have received this award from 2 special friends I met at RMS. Ann from Life at Ann's place and Laurie at Tomarie's Cabin. Thanks so much ladies.
I guess I am suppose to pass this on to a few others huh? There are just so many fun, inspirational and informative blogs its hard to pick just a few. So, I really want you all to have it. Including my fun little circle of RMS buddies that I check on daily. Please each of you to add another number to your Fan awards.

Thanks Christine! You really have to visit my friend Christine over at Christines Home and Travel Adventures. She is a Globe Trotting Shop-A- Holic and has the coolest, funnest things to share on her blog. (Including me!) I know... Its unbelievable that she passed this Honest Scrap on to me and asked me to share a few more things.
Christine this is for you GF:
1. If you googled my name you would find movie credits for a few low budget films. I am saying loooow budget f-i-l-m-s.
But, some of the actors are big name stars now. (Helen Hunt, Diane Lange, Christopher Atkin, Dee Wallace.)
2. At the age of 14, I was discovered by Wayne Newtons wife KoKo while wrapping Christmas presents in the Maryland Pkwy Mall in Las Vegas. I modeled clothes for her boutique. (till I developed)
3. Two New Years Eve's ago I attended a party with old time movie ties... One. The baby from Gone with the Wind. (He was also, Raquel Welch's ex-husband, father of her two children, and his father was the original owner of RKO Studios). Second, was Roy Rogers oldest daughter. (I can't remember either of their names) They were much older then us!!!....very nice people though.
4. I was a hairdresser for 20 years
5. I hate putting on makeup and doing my hair everyday.
6. I would live in sweats if I could but, make the step up to jeans 3 days a week and dress professionally a couple...LOLOLOLOLO <--I hope my boss doesn't read this!
7. I am ashamed to admit....I am a hick cuz I think I like it.
8. I Don't believe anyone got this far
9. I love to be at home and working in my yard
10. Im going to start a diet tommorrow
PS I can't believe I didn't mention.....I have a picture of me and Candace Olsen at last years Las Vegas Market...man, that was the best info too! (losing it)

...Look what my friend Cyn over at Great Plains Living passed on to me! She is the nicest person. She has helped me to put music on my blog, inspired me with motiviational thoughts, and worried me when it was storming in her State. Im so glad you are safe despite the yucky mud! Thankyou so much Cyn. I consider this a great compliment.
So, I guess I need to tell 10 things about myself then pass this Award on to others. hmmmm

2. My energy level is a lot higher in my mind.
3. I start a diet every night before I go to bed and stick to it everday until lunch.
4. If you offered me $.02 for my husband. I would give you change
ps:I have a No Return Policy.
5. I love my job when I'm not there
6. I think blogging is harder then it looks
7. Sometimes, I think I know a lot more then I do
8. 8? 8? 8? tap, tap, 8? Okay, I know this will shock you all....
My house is never clean enough!
9. I have 4 children. 3 sons and a daughter ehhhh, their okay. No, no they really are.
