August Break – 2019 – 5 Things About Me

I’ve done posts about myself before so I’m trying to think of new things, or at least a new way of looking at them.  Working from the top left down: 

1) I am a hopeless romantic and believe in knights in shining armor, BUT, I also believe that I can be Queen and not just a princess waiting for rescue.

2)  I’ve had the “Bill Loves Jan” sign for over 30 years and it sticks on the dashboard of all my cars.

3) We went on a helicopter ride and had a picnic overlooking the Grand Canyon for our anniversary a few years ago.  We stayed in the Excalibur Hotel which looks like a castle (see #1).

4)  I am a creator and absolutely love working in my new backyard studio.

5) I am a Pisces and I love the ocean.  I don’t get there as much as I’d like and that has to change. 

For last year’s list you can look here.   Lots of links in this one to keep you entertained.  I’d love to hear 5 things about you!

    Sooo sweet! πŸ™‚ I love the Bill Loves Jan sign! How cute is that? I haven’t even seen one of those label makers in YEARRRRRS! I would have forgotten all about them had you not brought that to my attention.

      That’s from back in the day when we were still romantic – LOL. Looking forward to recapturing some of that now that the kids are all grown and don’t need us as much. I think he still has the label maker – packrat much?

    I can write 3 things about me: 1. My sister is a Jan-Bill duo too 2. Your August mindfulness list looks a lot like my gratitude book. 3. My memoir Mennonite Daughter: The Story of a Plain Girl publishes in September, after 5-years’ labor.

    Brava to you for posting your “she-shed” video on YouTube, which I haven’t tried yet. πŸ™‚

      Congrats on the book! Getting more short clips on YouTube is a goal of mine for this year. I am surprised how many Jan/Bill duos there are out there! Thanks for stopping by, Marian.

  4. I loved reading your list, Janet! Maybe in a future post, I’ll make a list of my own. I’m so happy you have your “She Shed!” Don’t you love that commercial? πŸ™‚

      I laugh every time at the look on the husband’s face. It took me a while to realize what she was saying -She-shier she shed, I guess meaning fancier, more elaborate, more she? I’d love to read your list, Jill. Thanks for stopping by!

  5. I am also a Pisces, Janet, but I am no longer a hopeless romantic.

    Hi Janet – I love your romanticism – the world needs more happily married couples who celebrate still being in love. I also have serious studio envy (even though I’m not creative at all). The idea of a girl cave is just so appealing for some reason.

      Thanks Leanne. I’ve seen lots of different uses for the “She Sheds” so you don’t have to be crafty. Just a sitting area to have a cup of tea and read a book in peace would be great too!
