meme note

If you click on the mosaic you can see the pics larger!!!!! Thank goodness all the time I invested wasn't wasted. At least I was laying in bed doing it. Later!!

meme

The concept:

a. type your answer to each of the questions below into Flickr Search.

b. using only the first page, pick an image. (upon rereading these instructions, I didn't do this, sorry, on some items I had to go thru 20 pages, even used some of my own pics-OOPS!!-guess I don't know how to follow directions too well)

c. copy and paste each of the URLs for the images into fd’s mosaic maker.



The questions:

1. What is your first name?

2. What is your favorite food?

3. What high school did you go to?

4. What is your favorite color?

5. Who is your celebrity crush?

6. Favorite drink?

7. Dream vacation?

8. Favorite dessert?

9. What you want to be when you grow up?

10. What do you love most in life?

11. One Word to describe you.

12. Your flickr name.

Don't know what happened, the person whose blog I got this from had a big mosaic, not sure what happened to mine. You can go to my flickr if you want to see it, maybe you can see them a little bigger.

I will try to catch up soon. Still dealing with headaches and need to get pain injections in my back again, possibly contributing to the headaches. Hope to catch up on all my quilting and dyeing commitments very soon!! Sorry for the delays, it isn't like me to be so slack.
