Anyone still out there?
My little shipping/crafting helper, Axel :)
Supposedly between Google Reader & Bloglines alone, I have 63 subscribers to my blog (which I know is small compared to some of your blogs, but I am amazed you are all out there reading this:) Crafting is going to resume soon I promise (I am having such a hard time keeping my fall swap handmade item under wraps - I so want to show what I made, but really want to wait for Kelly to get it in the mail first:)… In the meantime though, until I get around to some crafting (which is definitely in the plan for tomorrow - I have a bunch of projects to start) I have been tagged once again and figure I would follow through with it since it seems like a fun little meme.
Rashida of I Heart Linen (which is a great blog, if you don’t already read it), tagged me for this 4 things about me… Here goes! :)
Jobs I’ve Had:
- Administrative Assistant at a radio station
- Customer Service Representative (sounds much cooler than it was!) at a bridal shop
- Piano Teacher (probably one of my favorite jobs - I had about 8-10 students and it was fun to be able to see each of them learn)
- Veterinary Assistant at a humane society (a tough job in a lot of ways, but I loved working with the animals and being able to help in a small way. plus we got Axel because I had this job.)
Places I’ve Lived:
- Wisconsin
- Minnesota
- Wisconsin (again)
- Illinois
(This list makes it seem like I really love the midwest United States… which I do in some ways. I have traveled a decent amount, I just haven’t lived outside of the midwest yet -being the key word;)
Foods I Love:
(This category isn’t going to be very creative, honestly I am a pretty boring eater. I dislike spicy foods & most weird foods.)
- Cheese Pizza
- Lindt Peanut Butter Truffles
- Vegetable Fried Rice (the kind that Ben makes, which is probably a bit healthier than your typical fried rice & it also has tofu in it which I really like)
- Tea (okay it isn’t technically a food, so much as a beverage but I love it)
Websites I Visit:
- Google Reader (for all your wonderful blogs!)
- Gmail (for all my email of course… Ben got me a gmail account when it first came out & was by invite only & the invites were very hard to come by. I had to have one though - and now I have three!)
- Flickr
- Etsy
Places I’d Rather Be:
- Anyplace besides Illinois (I don’t really talk about this much on my blog, actually never and I may never mention it again… but I don’t particularly care for living in Illinois. It is a good state in many ways and I like certain things about it, but I don’t think I could live here forever. I would miss living near water for one thing - this is the first place I have lived without a real lake nearby!)
- England
- Washington state
- On the beach by the ocean
Movies I Love & TV Shows I Watch:
Ben & I actually don’t have a tv, so I guess these 2 categories are fairly irrelevant to me:)
People I Tag:
Anyone who actually read this far! :)

Hi, Chara,
I’ll consider myself tagged! I’ll post my answers over at my blog.
Cheers,
Christine
I’m playing along :-)
So, here’s an odd question, how did you figure out how many subscribers you had on google reader? I have never been able to sort that out. LOL
(Gah, why won’t wordpress just remember my details?)
Fun! My favorite web sites are the same as yours! And you’re welcome to come visit the Evergreen State any time you want. I’ll show you around.
Wooohoo, it remembered me this time. I must not have been here yet. (Though that seems odd, but whatever. LOL)
it was fun to read your answers! I have lived in 2 of the same states as you have. :)
