Well here you have it folks-- my own answers to the world famous "Seven 7's" quiz. I was first introduced to this on Amy's blog, and now Susan's put me on her list to do the quiz too. Sounds fun, so here goes.

Seven things I hope to do before I die:
have my own sewing business
plant a successful garden
marry a Godly man
have several chickens and a Jersey cow named Daisy
live on a small self-sufficient farm
buy very few things
raise as many children as the Lord would give us (in cloth diapers) ; )

Seven things I cannot do well:
respond promptly to e-mails (right Susan??) : D
play sports
get to bed on time (*ahem*)
live for more than 2 weeks without some minor injury
keep my room as orderly as I'd like
talk about how I feel deeply about things without crying
keep anything straight about LOTR. I just don't get it.

Seven things that would attract me to my future husband:
has blue eyes and sings bass
has strong muscles because he works- not because he works out
helps in the kitchen!
loves the Lord
loves children
is tender and peacable
doesn't think I'm silly for wanting chickens.

Seven things I say often:
"It's so loud in here!"
"West Davidson Public Library, the very best place to start. May I help you?"
"Yes, I will."
"I'm in the sewing room!"
"How much water have you had today?"
"You know, people haven't had ______ but for only __ years."
"You know, (name) said (some item or technique) was good for when you're (sick, cleaning the tub, cooking, etc.)

Seven authors, books, or series I love:
The Bible (Isaiah especially!)
Elizabeth Prentiss
Jeremiah Burroughs
Silas Marner by George Eliot
The Anne of Green Gables series (especially Rilla of Ingleside)
Sue Gregg cookbooks
The 641 and 745/ 746 sections of my library ; ) If you don't know your Dewey decimal system... well then you just need to spend some more time at your library!

Seven movies I watch over and over again (in order of frequency):
Emma
Sense and Sensibility
Princess Bride
Pride and Prejudice
Ever After
Jane Eyre
While You Were Sleeping (fastforwarding through a few places)

Seven people I want to do this:
Samara
Wendy
Crystal
Jessi
Keri
Kelly and Andrea (they count as two)

You can use the comment button if you don't have your own blog to post on.

I'm sorry

I've been too busy living my life to be able to blog about it lately!!

I haven't forgotten you, my friends, and I plan to get a little more up soon... But in case I can't blog more beforehand--

"A Merry Christmas to all, and to all a Good Night!"

PS: No, I do not celebrate Santa Claus. Personally, I can't stand the guy. I just think his quote was appropriate there.

"This is only a test"

I'm just trying to see if I get a new post out here for December and November gets archived, will my sidebar come back up?
