    Interesting thing about me…I wanted to go to community college to learn musical instrument repair (there are two in the country that teach it) but I couldn’t afford it. I did, however, have free tuition at a private university (thanks to my dad working there) so instead, I studied and got a Bachelors of Arts and Science in Professional Accounting and Sociology. Naturally with that kind of education, I am a housewife!

    One interesting thing about me - I am a single mom of a seven year old going on 21! That isn’t really interesting - I am a scrapbooking fanatic, but I never seem to get caught up. I have a chiweenie dog - is that interesting?

    Please subscribe me to you blog.

    thanks!

    I LOVE Vera, but can’t spend that kind of money on one. My childcare families (I’m a at home provider) went together to get me a gift certificate so I could purchase my first one for Christmas…LOVE IT!! Interesting fact: I have 3 kids, one husband, and a cat…not very interesting but my life! :o)

    Interesting fact: I wasn’t born in the United States, but I’m a citizen from birth! (I was born on an Army base at the Panama Canal - both parents were enlisted at the time.) That’s my go-to interesting fact, I’ve used it at numerous ice-breaker occasions. :-)

    The bag is beautiful! I have a VB tote bag that was a present from my first-grade class, years & years ago - you’re SO right about their awesome machine-washability! I’d love to win this.

    How cute! I’ve never owned a designer bag. No, that’s not my interesting fact. Some people might find it interesting that I just learned to drive last year at the age of 44. A lot of people sure find it SHOCKING!

    Ooh, ooh count me in. I love Vera Bradley and so does my daughter. If I win, I most definitely will have to share it with her. One interesting fact about me — well, I’m not sure if this is that interesting but I am deathly afraid of mice (and rats). They gross me out and you never know when and where you will see them. They are so little, they can be anywhere. I mean deathly afraid so much so that I can’t even look at them when they are shown on t.v. Plus it doesn’t help that my duaghter owns a horse and mice and barns go hand in hand. I can’t even walk in the barn. I don’t dare walk down where the stalls are, I go straight to the viewing room. EEks!!!!

  166. Marilyn Says:
