There's another new poll for this week to your right! Please check it out and vote!

Fidgeting Gidget has given me the Keepsake Award! Thanks Gidget!


1. Post a funny or sweet keepsake that tells something about you.

NOTE: This is not my watch, but I don't have photos of my watch (and I'm blogging from work).
It's a photo from sxc.hu.

So my keepsake is the watch that I'm wearing at the moment. It was given to me by my grandmother (as a graduation present) who passed away years ago. It has great sentimental value to me, since I grew up living in the same house as my grandmother as long as I can remember. When my parents were busy working, she would be the one taking care of my brother and I. I loved her dearly and there are times that I still think of her. I will always remember and cherish the stories she told us when we were little.


2. Pass the award on to 10 other bloggers that you think are keepers!

All of you are keepers, but I'm going to pick a random 10. Please check out their blogs!

That's a lovely watch (from what you've described) and I'm so glad you held onto it and keep it with you. What a special lady.
