As regards that last, Elle, who favored Miss Kim with this little award, began a trend of reducing the number of recently discovered bloggers from fifteen to seven. Miss Kim followed that lead, and I'm counting that as a rule revision. I don't go surfing through the blogging world very often and I generally find people who've found me first. So . . . a couple of these blogs are ones that I went searching for just so I could give them this award.
So, now . . . seven revelations about myself.
- For an old broad, I'm a little bit of a makeup junkie. I don't overuse it, but I do over-buy it. I think it has something to do with the color charts, which, being colorful, seduce me.
- I think Maxfield Parrish's art is dreamy. Real artists have told me they don't like his work because "it's too commercial." Doesn't matter to me: I can go away somewhere when I look at his colors.
- I don't drink alcohol anymore. My sobriety date is September 29, 2005.
- If I were never to hear a shrill poodle bark again, it would be too soon.
- According to Peter Urs Bender, I am an Amiable, who, under pressure turns into a Driver.
- I like being up in the middle of the night, and arrange my weekends to accommodate that quirk.
- This is my hair. It is all you will ever see of me on this blog:

My mom loves Maxfield Parrish too and we grew up with his prints all around us. So warm, yet softly colored.
For an "old broad" you have gorgeous hair ;)
Thank you, Miss June-from-the-windy- country-hilltop. I do appreciate your thoughtfulness. This has been quite a weekend, as I also received another award, which, among other things, also requires me to post a few tid-bits about myself, which always makes me a little anxious. But it's worth it.
I love your reveals, and I am also a Maxfield Parrish fan. His glazed scapes are fascinating.
I humbly accept this award, and shall be happy to pass it along. I
am going to have a very busy Monday!
Thank you!
Well, June - this is more than you've ever revealed (and still not a whole lot!). I like that glossy hair - and the fact that you turned gray at such a young age.
Barb?
59 is "such a young age"?
Congratulations on your award! You are certainly deserving. Congrats on your Sobriety date; good for you! and I too like your hair :)
I'm a big fan of Parrish. What I particularly like is when I go out into a day where something about the quality of the colors and shapes in the world put me in mind of his work. I must be an unschooled chucklehead because I consider him a "real" artist.
Nice hair.
Hey June!!
Congratulations on your award . . . and thank you so much for the awesome award :)
Maxfield Parrish . . . I wish I still had those prints.
Have a wonderful week . . . Gina
Yeah you, on the sobriety! Every day a victory.
Love the hair, doll! *grin*
I've been wearing less and less makeup in this past year.
June, why, thank you; how nice of you to include me in this illustrious group! I will send on the award, with revelations as suggested, but it may take me a few wks. since as I will post in my next blog entry, I'm going to skip town for a little while.
