I love gardenias too. We had a bush of those outside our house when I was a little girl...and I always loved breathing in the beautiful, heady scent when they were blossoming.

Thanks for telling us a little more about yourself, Genevieve. Oops...I mean...Genny. :)

I'm a little behind in catching up with blogs this week. I love your full name...it's beautiful...but I can see as a youngster why you would want to shorten it up. I used to dislike my name until I got older and now I love it.
I played along with your Five Things About Me. Hope you stop by to visit.

I really like this idea of sharing topics on Thursdays. What a great way to get to know others! Thanks for doing this. I too love coffee. =) So sorry to hear about your broken bones! I haven't ever broken anything so far...(knock on wood) so your post lets me know it's never too late! LOL
I look forward to next week

Genevieve is a wonderful name. But sometimes old habits are hard to break.

Thanks for stopping by my little corner of the bloggy world. I am going to check out your books. I love to hear and see the writing successes of others. :)

"Coffee before conversation"... I love it!

Genny - Thanks for doing this, what a neat idea. Five things about me:

1. I too broke a bone for the first time in my life last year, on New Year's Day. It was nothing spectacular. I was bucked off my brother's horse and broke my upper right arm in two places. Thank the Lord I am left handed. There was alot I learned from that after having it in a sling for 6 weeks and in a brace for 10 weeks. Too much to write everything down but I agree with Genny, I was so thankful the day I was able to wash my own hair again and drive!

2. I am a mother of 3 boys(ages 5, 7 and 9) so alot of activity and testosterone in the house. So when it comes to females, it's just me and the dogs, Pepper and Tally. My husband and I just celebrated 11 yrs of marriage on Jan. 23rd as well.

3. I love to sing...most importantly to and for the Lord and struggle with not being able to commit myself more to become part of a praise team at church due to many other committments in my life right now. So, for now I sing in the choir and one day when the boys are a bit older look forward to singing even more.

4. I am a Bath & Body Works girl! I love good smells - coffee, fresh cut grass, the smell of a outdoor fire on a cool night and a fresh cut Christmas tree. I'm so thankful for the ability so enjoy such aromas!

5. I do not believe there is such a thing as too much chocolate. Dove milk chocolate in particular. I'm not a morning person and believe in coffee before conversation. :)

Genny - we too had a dog named Lady growing up. Would love to see a pix of your Lady.

Thanks again!
Jenny

Hi Genny,
It's my first time here. I stopped by from my good friend Lisa's blog and decided to play along. It's nice to meet you.
I can so relate to #5! When I redid my kitchen I wrote along the top of the cabinets." When coffee dreams it dreams of chocolate!" LOL.
Blessings to you.

Genny - I found your blog site from my sister's site - The Puebla Ponderosa. Am I still able to leave 5 things if I don't have a blog site or link? I too broke my first bone in my life last year in 2009. Hope to hear from you soon.

2010-01-28T08:26:31.208-08:00

Teachers had a hard time pronouncing Genevieve? It's not like it's a weird name. I would have considered it for daughter no. 2 but it's too similar to Jennifer.

Chickens freak me out.

OK, off to think of five random things about myself.

2010-01-28T07:18:18.554-08:00

So glad you all joined in!

Amanda, when my kids were younger, I used to do most of my writing at home when they were napping, so I know what you mean about that feeling of longing. I remember reading an interview with an author who said she wrote her book in a coffee shop and I thought that sounded sooo nice.

Your writing moments in a coffee shop will be here before you know it, I bet. :)

Genny :)

2010-01-28T06:16:28.877-08:00

Love getting to know you! As soon as you mentioned a coffee show... I had a moment of longing. I would love to sit and blog from a coffee shop! But, alas, three small kids dont think its as fun! :)

Blessings-
Amanda

2010-01-28T04:27:17.673-08:00

I think a broken bone as an adult is much harder to recover from that of a child.

I'm glad that's over for you.

I love the name Genevieve!

I love your 5 things! Genevieve is such a pretty name, but of course it's easier to say Genny. I can't wait to hear your story of how you started pursuing writing! Thanks for hosting this - very fun!
