That Christopher at Designs by CK, has passed on a blog award to me! He has the funniest series of Easter cartoons/giggles, that you need to go give his blog a look to see them as well as his newest offering on eBay, "All Seer" (very cool piece). Such a talented guy I am thrilled to know him and to say I have the privilege of owning a few of his pieces now! He also revamped his website as well, and he did a fabulous job showcasing his work!! Talent, shear and utter talent!
Okay, I am suppose to tell you 7 fast Laurie facts (I don't think I have told these before):
1. I use to be a CPR instructor for the American Heart Association.
2. I have actually performed CPR on multiple heart attack victims.
3. I use to be a registered Emergency Medical Technician for the Fire Department and local hospital.
4. I was on our local Fire Department for 10 years working both EMS (Emergency Medical Services/Ambulance) and as a Fire Ground Support Operations team member (I was a Truckee), and yes, I have actually fought fire multiple times from structure to grass fires.
5. I was the Public Information Officer for the Fire Department for several years.
6. I was the Emergency Management Coordinator for our city and county.
7. My father was the fire chief in my home town as I was growing up and inspired me to do all of the above.
