I didn't want to say purrfect world because my world is far from purrfect. My blog is about my life, my estore, my crafts and projects and more.<br /><br />I'm going to follow you and put you on my sidebar, plus on my blog list page.Kat's Purrfect Boutiquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12581855234416469744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3543403427361017570.post-27716023103940915602010-12-28T21:43:59.441-05:002010-12-28T21:43:59.441-05:00I followed Suzanne here!

I met a great group of gals who have become strong friends over the past 3 years. My taking up golf coincided with my retirement from the working world due to finding out I had cancer. I've had 3 surgeries over the past 3 years and I HOPE this time I'm cancer free! "Tales of a Golf Gal" is light and fun, filled with stories of my family, sewing, home improvement projects and sometimes a way to vent about life with cancer. We all need to talk about our troubles now and then, right?!Sjnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01248247475325728054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3543403427361017570.post-68518292421878971152010-12-28T20:45:04.124-05:002010-12-28T20:45:04.124-05:00Hi Cheryl,

Good for YOU :)<br /><br />Verde Farm-our blog is named after our farm of course but the way we named our farm is the story. We bought our place in 2007. It was named Merritt Heights-after the folks we bought it from. We soon found out it had been renamed with each of the three owners to adopt their last names. So--prior to us coming it was named Meadows Heights, Aldridge Heights and Merritt Heights. We weren’t going to change it at that point but oddly enough, the column post that held the word “Merritt” was hit one night toppling the column. The stone with the name was unharmed. This was our chance and we didn’t want to put our last name on it. We wanted to name it something that would endure--beyond the people living here. So, we thought and thought and one of the things we loved most about the property was the large number of evergreen trees it had. We knew they had been ordered and shipped from China and Europe back in the 20s based on some research we had done. I wanted to name it Evergreen Heights but there wasn’t room for Evergreen on the stone. We searched for synonyms for Evergreen and came to Verde. We pronounce it Vairday-like fairday. I loved it and thought it was perfect. Verde means green in latin and this is a green place. So, we went with Verde Heights. We started developing our farm and thus named the farm and the blog Verde Farm. Thanks for asking and offering this fun give away and opportunity to share :)Verde Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08551515900687338284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3543403427361017570.post-56675803672418695482010-12-27T19:29:52.238-05:002010-12-27T19:29:52.238-05:00I am a new follower.

I ...I'm so glad you shared your story with us. I really had wondered where you got the name. I love it and it fits you perfect. It's so much fun reading about how everyone chose their names too. <br /><br />I was just looking for something that would pay homage to my Southern roots. I'm not exactly Scarlett and I never picked cotton but I just love everything cute. I'm like a little girl sometimes with stuff like that. I was a little unsure if I should really chose that name. I was so afraid someone would think I speaking in terms of me (definitely not) and that would sound way too arrogant for me. Really it is because I love cotton pickin' cute things. I can't believe I've been blogging for a year and a half now. I don't know what I would have done with out it and all the friends I've made this year.<br /><br />Honey I know just what you mean that emotional abuse doesn't fade away like bruises do. It takes so much more work to keep those nasty thoughts from repeating over and over again in our head. Wish I could get the same lasting recording of a upbeat comment to stay in my head like that or at least believe it half as much.<br /><br />This is a too good to be true giveaway. Thanks for hosting and better yet thanks for a wonderful year of friendship.<br /><br />Merry Christmas and big warm hugs...Tracy :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08643279791342765171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3543403427361017570.post-8491142641253634212010-12-22T01:22:29.484-05:002010-12-22T01:22:29.484-05:00Well...
I guess I forgot to tell you why I don'...Well...<br />I guess I forgot to tell you why I don't have a blog yet. I have been caring for my husband's invalid mother for over a year and ten months.<br />She cannot stand up on her own, my husband has to hoist her out of bed, to her chair, and then to her potty chair, while I do clean up duty. She is a dear, wonderful woman but cannot care for herself, but will soon be going to live with her daughter 200 miles away. I am a doll maker, and have had no time for making dolls let alone keeping up on housework. Caring for an invalid is a full time job. Anyway, I will miss her when she leaves but I hope to get my own busy life back in order so I can do what I love to do best and that is to blog and make friends! <br />So, the best to everyone and have a joyous holiday season! And wish me luck at beginning my own blog, very, very soon! <br />tscat@sbcglobal.net<br />Teresa in CAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3543403427361017570.post-3996651024854428632010-12-20T22:11:36.870-05:002010-12-20T22:11:36.870-05:00Oooooo!

Your blog is straight from the heart and I love it!<br />So... my blog... KLULESS... What's up with THAT??? <br />KLU are my initials. I have been using "kluless" as my moniker for at least 15 years, maybe longer, too long to remember! I think it started out because I didn't know much about computers except that I wanted to play along and so learn I did! <br />Life goes on and there was selling on eBay when Ebay was a babe and learning and gaining confidence and eventually becoming a business analyst working it the IT department for a major corporation, for crying out loud. I wonder what they would think about it all starting with me wanting to sell buttons on eBay - LOL???? For me it has always been about connecting. I feel so blessed that there is this whole internet world out there where I can connect with kindred spirits all throughout the world. Oh.My.Gosh.
