As for the freckles, I totally DIG the one-sided thing! It's like having eyes of different colors, or white spots in your hair, or some other anomaly that people can't MAKE! Well, I'm rather stubborn about NOT seeking approval--I do love approval, and I am often let down when I do something that makes me happy (crafts), but I don't seek it. I teach 7th graders, too, and I stand strong by the ones that are individualists. Life is a joyous journey (in amongst the rocks and horrors) and we need to get over the urge to "correct" what we deem "broken." LOVE the freckles! Now I'm trying to find out where you are from; seems like lately the most interesting people on the internet (to me) are from Northern Europe.Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05358783504573313558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131844.post-52295708724708625162009-02-01T22:45:00.000+01:002009-02-01T22:45:00.000+01:00I had tangobaby's thought about the freckles, too....I had tangobaby's thought about the freckles, too. (I have more sun damage on the left side of my face.) They do give you a unique look, though!<BR/><BR/>Your anecdote about your English language skills amused me. I have a friend here who is very discriminating/snobby about who she befriends, and she once got disgusted with me for saying that I'd be friends with anyone who was nice/friendly to me.

Interesting at 55 I don't really have freckles anymore. Maybe the lemon juice worked. BTW, I too love your freckles, they're you.
