Honest Scrap

Lola, at What Lola Wants & Some Unsolicited Advice , gave me an Award and choose me to say some 10 things true about me.

So, here they go.

1. I am Catholic. Not just in words, I am trully Catholic. I try hard to follow the law of God and Church, against all odds, against the spirit of the world, even when people laugh, because I believe I am in the true path.

2. I am Monarchist. I believe that is the right thing for every country. A president always have to pay the votes to the ones who put him in power. A King was prepared to be it since he was born and doesn't need to pay the votes.

3. I am a working wife and mother and I don't like it. My work is very interesting but has no comparison to what is to be a full time wife and mother. I dream about the day I won't work outside any longer.

4. Home is the place I like to be - and going to Mass.

5.I like England so much that if I hadn't a big extended family - parents, brothers, nephew, etc - I would ask my husband to move.

6. Because that is not possible, I dream about buying a tiny house in England to go there on holiday every time I want.

7. I like the rain. I can't stand the hit and summer all together.

8. I long to be a very good homemaker - this work is still in progress.

9. I like movies very much. I also like to see history programs, nature, etc. So, between the time I spend in the internet and seeing television, I struggle to achieve the good homemaker goal.

10. I like my grey hair. I never pretend I'm younger because age is very nice and good thing and we must praise Our Lord for it.

Now I choose:

Beverly at How Sweet the Sound

Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom

Irene at The Green Greek

For more information go to Lola.

Thanks Susan

Susan, from A Southern Daydreamer, gave me this Award. I'm so happy.

I'm suposed to give it to some people but this is a big problem as I have too many to choose from.

Thank you so much Susan.

Go to her blog and see for yourselves how beautiful is her blog, always with nice posts.

I go there everyday!

Such nice Award

My friend Lola at What Lola Wants has a nice blog. I go there every time she has a new post. Last December (!) she gave an Award and I didn’t see it! Imagine my amazement when she told me! I don’t know how a person can not to see a thing like that. Is is old age?!
The award is the Marie Antoinette Award.
So, thank you very much Lola.
And now, I will give it to 7 girls.

Here they are the aforementioned girls:

Happy Hearts At Home

My Life in Flip Flops
Organiza-te
Prossigo para o alvo
saturday's child
The Green Greek
Another Bend In The Road

You deserve it.

An Award and a meme

Lara, from Prossigo para o alvo gave me an Award and a Meme.
The Award it's here.



It says
"This blog invests and believes the PROXIMITY - nearness in space, time and relationships! These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers! Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award."

And the Meme:

6th Picture Meme!

1.Go to your Picture Folder on your computer or wherever you store your pictures.
2.Go to the 6th Folder, then pick the 6th picture in that folder.
3,Post that picture on your blog and the story that goes along with the picture.
4.Tag 6 other peoples that you know or don’t know to do the same thing and leave a comment on their blog or an e-mail letting them know you chose them.

I have so many folders in my computor.So, I decided to go to the 2008 folder and choose the 6th. It was December because the 6th was the D. Then I went to the 6th picture and the result was the one above with those lovely apples.

I think I'll leave it to everybody who find it funny and wants to do it.

A new award

Irene, from The Green Greek , is a nice reader of my blog and I am a reader of hers. I’m always hopping to find a new post in her blog.
This time she posted about an award she recieved and gave to me also.
Now I have to nominate 10 people to whom I will give mine. It’s hard, as you can see in my blog list, I have a lot of blogs I like so much. So I choose these:

Diary of a Stay at Home Mom
Happy Hearts At Home
Home Living
Little Jenny Wren

My Life in Flip Flops
Organiza-te
Prossigo para o alvo
saturday's child
A Southern Daydreamer
Casa al mare Patchwork
Walking on Sunshine

Nice girls, they are.

Today is my 3 post! First was the Todays Flowers where I posted a beautiful yellow rose from a plant my mother gave me - scroll down to see it, it's so beautiful. Then, it was the meme and now this.
I couldn't wait another day to post about a Award I have. It was Lara who gave me and I'll pass to

Happy Hearts at Home
The Green Greek
Casa Al Mare Patchwork

Bookworm Award

I've been tagged by Lara and the rules for this award are:

Pass this on to 5 blogging friends. Open the closest book to you, not your favorite or most intellectual book, but the book closest to you at the moment, to page 56. Write the 5th sentence, as well as two to five sentences following that.


And, as her way affronting, forth she hied,
Her ev’ry gesture such a grace expirèd,
Stars, Skies and Aether’s circumabient tide,
And all that saw her with love-fire were firèd.
Those eyne wherein Dan Cupid aye doth nide,
Such vitl spirits in all life ispirèd;
The frigid poles with torrid ardours burnèd,
And spheres of Artic frost ro flame were turnèd.

Well, this is from The Lusiades by Luís de Camões.
This was the book in english I had closest to me.

It’s better to go to the wikipedia here and here to learn more about this poet of ours and his work.

Well,

Alexandra – Happy Hearts at Home

Irene – The Green Greek

Smilnsigh

Mélia

And last one is everybody who would like to make this.
