Day 1 & 2 - Your Blog Name and 10 Things About Me

I found a 30-day writing challenge for April so that's what I'm going to do tonight. Since it's after midnight and technically day 2, I'll more than likely combine the first two into one since there isn't much I can say about the Day one challenge. Day one is "Your Blog Name." The name of my blog has no real significance. It's there because I couldn't think of anything creative and I was more concerned about getting it up and running. The name is simply "Sherry's Little Space... on the Web."

Now for the 10 things about me ~

1. I love God first and foremost, and I serve an awesome God. He has brought me through some things that have brought me to my knees...literally. I will forever praise His name. My family are the most important earthly things to me. I think I'm the most happy right now than I've ever been in my entire life, thanks to the people in my life who love me. 
2. I'm obsessed with all things Irish. It's my favorite country, second only to the good ole USA. I love the beauty of the countryside there. An Irish accent is the prettiest I've ever heard. I've never had any obsession with any celebrities from any genre until I found Frank McCourt. It surprised me how sad I became when I learned he died before I could at least have met him in person at a book signing or something.
3. I'm probably the only person in the world who hates butterflies. As pretty as they are, they're just worms with wings and I hate worms. A spider doesn't worry me at all, but if a butterfly comes near me I panic. And wouldn't ya know, my new "free gift with purchase" from Clinique this time has butterflies all over the makeup bag. 
4. I love writing, and although it's doubtful it'll ever happen, my big dream is to be a published author. I haven't given up hope since Frank McCourt was already retired before he wrote his first book and it became a Pulitzer Prize winner. 
5. Music is one of my passions. Many times I can't find the words to express what I need to say, but I can always find a song that says exactly what I feel. Some songs can change my mood within the first few notes and some song will take me back to a memory of when I first heard it, or to a special time or a special person. 
6. While I love movies of all kinds, when I'm home I love watching the old black and white ones. I have many modern day favorites, but it's just not the same as the old ones. The actors/actresses from the black and white days were more classy in both actions and dress. I miss that. 
7. I've always preferred a good ole country boy over a city boy. Maybe because I was raised a country girl myself. 
8. I have a weird pen and journal obsession. I have thousands of pens and it's still not enough. I'm always looking for a good pen. They don't have to necessarily be expensive. In fact, some of my more expensive pens aren't nearly as nice as some free ones I've picked up from places I've done business with. 
9. I'm a displaced night owl. There's just some kind of magic that happens when the sun goes down and the moon and stars come out. Every phase of the moon is beautiful and the sky is spectacular whether the stars are out or not. 
10. I feel that same kind of magic when it rains. Whether it's a little sprinkling or a major thunderstorm, I'm in my element. Many people get depressed during the rainstorms, especially if it goes on several days. But if it rained every day I wouldn't complain. 

This is kinda rushed, but I'm sleepy and didn't want to let this day go by without starting this challenge.
