As a recipient of a Beautiful Blogger Award I am asked to share 10 things you may not know about me, then provide a list of 10 bloggers I adore.
Little Known Facts:
1. I used to be a Rocket Scientist... technically I was a Manufacturing Engineer for the Space Shuttle Main Engine and a Test Engineer on part of the International Space Station, but Rocket Scientist is more fun to say.
2. Before I was a Rocket Scientist, I worked for the Coors Brewing Company. Beer, then Rocket Engines. That makes sense, right?
3. I prefer to work for young, entrepreneurial companies that are pursuing new ideas. I am currently at my fifth (Astral Technology Group) and also building my own (Alpacamundo).
4. I love to camp, but haven't been in years.
5. I love to learn about new (to me) things and ideas.
6. I
7. I want to write and publish a book.
8. I was an Adaptive Ski Instructor for 8 years in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
9. I married the exact, right person. My Husband and I develop goals and priorities together, then support each other in their pursuit. I am extremely lucky in this regard.
10. Life is too short to eat bad chocolate or drink bad coffee.
I suppose this is a new version of the chain letter, but since it doesn't say do this or else you'll be the recipient of bad luck, I am happy to share some of my favorite blogs and bloghers with you. Yes, I know some have been nominated before, that's a testament to how awesome they are. I hope you will take a few minutes to check them out.

Holly of Knit With Snot For You
Katy the Alpaca Farm Girl

I would put the Andrea, the WonderWhyGal on this list, but I think that might be against the rules. ;-)
Thank you Andrea for this award... you are an inspiration to me.

I love you blog and those are very interesting facts that you haven't shared before.
Best wishes with the alpacamundo business.
A correctly bestowed award! Kathryn not only blogs frequently, but her blogs are interesting and I look forward to seeing what she will talk about next.
I am honored to have made Kathryn's list of blogs to read.
Kathleen - You are a beautiful story teller and I wish you blogged more.
Andrea - Thank you my sweet Wonder Gal. :-)
Thanks for including me! I feel so honored! And I have to say that I'm a little astonished that you ALSO have another job in addition to what you blog about here. You must be a bit of a superwoman!
Oh, you're so sweet to include me in your favorite blog list!
It's funny how few women I meet who were scientists AND alpaca owners. I used to be an astrophysicist, and now I make games. Go figure.
So glad you got the award, it's well-earned, I love your blog!
Jamie - You're welcome. I love reading about the adventures you and the chicks have. I don't think I'm any sort of superwoman... I just have a very long to do list that is never even close to being completed.
Hellchick - I feel this kinship with you, because of that and your wide range of interests. I always learn something when I read your blog. So you are welcome.
I love to pop over here for some peace and quiet!
