Handwriting Meme

Jenn at Jenn.nu (a blogger who’s been around about as long as I have) recently did a Handwriting Meme. Although I didn’t get tagged this time around, I thought the meme was so neat (and I hadn’t posted my handwriting online in a long time) that I thought I’d do it anyway.

Here’s the gist. You take some paper, and write the answers to these statements:

1. Name/Name of website.
2. Left or right-handed?
3. Favorite letters to write?
4. Least favorite letters to write?
5. Write this: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
6. Write these in all capitals: CRAB, HUMOR, KALEIDOSCOPE, PAJAMAS, GAZILLION.
7. Write your favorite lyrics to a song.
8. Tag some people to do this meme next.
9. Anything else you’d like to say?

Here’s mine:

Dig that Hello Kitty stationery! 🙂

Won’t you do this, too? Leave me a comment with a link to your post. I want to see how you write!

Me and My Blog

you & your blog at finding joy

I’ve been blogging for nearly 11 years, and I do it because it gives me a chance to express myself, to connect with others, to make new friends, and to be creative.

Here is a picture of me with my blog, a challenge inspired by Rachel at Finding Joy.

I’m Featured!

I found Courtney’s blog over the weekend and have really enjoyed learning about her family and seeing all her beautiful photos. She’s posts a lot of pretty pictures of her gorgeous little daughter. You should visit just for that. Plus, her husband’s family lives in Columbus, Ohio, where I lived for 13 years before moving to Chicago. Go Buckeyes!

Courtney is lovely enough to have me as one of her featured blogs! Go visit her and say “hi!”
