Since today is Wednesday it’s time for another Wednesday Word linkup, hosted by Debbie. Click on the button below to see who else is linking up and to join in.
This week’s word is passionate. Here are a few things I’m passionate about…
- My husband, Barry. We have been married a little over five years now, and time sure does fly. I can’t wait for what the future holds!
- My family and friends. Family is, and has always been, very important to me. I love family traditions and getting together for holidays. I don’t have a huge number of friends, I’m more of a ‘choose your friends wisely’ type. The friendships I do keep often feel more like family. Having people who are important in your life is more valuable than a big house, fancy car, or any other riches.
(source) - My dogs. Anyone who has read my blog for a hot minute knows I love my dogs very much. I know they’re not for everyone, but for me life is better with dogs. There’s nothing like a wagging tail greeting you at the door like you just made their day…. and that greeting being just as enthusiastic whether you’ve been done 3 days or 3 minutes.
- My Hokies!!! Another thing you probably already know about me. I went to school at Virginia Tech and I love rooting on my Hokies with gusto, especially in football.
- The mountains. I have lived in Virginia all my life, but not always in the mountains. I fell in love with them when I started going to school at Tech, and if I’m lucky I’ll always get to live in/near them.
- Running! I started running in 2007, during my freshman year of college, through Team in Training and subsequently ran my first race – the Country Music Half Marathon. I was pretty much hooked after that and, aside from a hiatus in 2010, I have been running consistently since then.
What are you passionate about?
Turkey Runner 
Looks like you hit them all. The only thing I will add is my vehicles. I am passionate about the machines I drive, whether they have two, four or multiple wheels!
But my girls come first.
LUD.
Glad to hear I rank above your Jeep! 😉
I’m not sure I could really be friends with someone who doesn’t love animals. They are the loves of my life (sorry, hubby — he’d probably be the first one to tell you it’s true).
I’m actually happy that we’ve lived in several different states. I enjoy exploring new places.
Same here!
I would like to have different experiences in different areas (maybe just through extended travels), but I also really love the state I live in 🙂
My family, running, and one I forgot to mention in my own post but should be included: travel! I love seeing new places!
It’s always neat to see new places! I hope to see more of the world someday.
I”d say all of the above (except the Hokies!). And I am passionate about my job.
Fair enough!
I would say all the above except I am a Florida Gator! 🙂 I have a strong passion for my career and that gets things interesting too!
To each her own! 🙂 I’ve got nothing against the Gators, though, and it was neat to see them beat Ole Miss! That was a big game.
I have to admit, I am pretty fond of your dogs, too. Just from their pictures. They look like characters!
And I completely understand about the mountains — they are remarkable. I went to college with a girl from Pearisburg and she really disliked not being able to see her mountains every day.
Haha thank you! They definitely have a lot of personality.
We have many of the same passions! Even both of our #1 passions starts with the letter “B.” 🙂
Thanks for linking up!
Good point! I hadn’t actually thought of that 🙂 AND both of our B’s were found at Virginia Tech!!
