I was considering a nickname… I just don’t have one. I have a few my husband calls me but I really don’t want to be known as honey to the general population.
I decided on Trixie but was quickly told (via facebook because isn’t that where life happens) that Trixie was a bit risque — and I was thinking of Trixie Belding, girl detective not Trixie girl of the evening. I opted for Dixie in honor of the late, great Dixie Carter and now I’m considering another change.
Jinx – may just be the new name. It seems that everything I come in contact with is falling apart. The AC stopped working, my phones quit working, the router on my modem or internet or something that in a little black box with flashing lights quit working…. and my sunny, good natured quit working too.
It seemed as if I were destined to be in a bad place and then Viola! It’s all working again. Repair guy fixed the black box thingie, I fixed the phones and hubby fixed the AC w/ a little help from some friends – things are good and my attitude is much better. So it’s back to Dixie formerly known as Trixie or DkaT – D-Kat for short. It sounds so much cooler than I am.
What about you… if you could pick a nickname what would it be and why?
My nickname in school was always Grace. I was forever stumbling over things. Seemed I could not walk without stumbling. Someone even had me a T-shirt made that had Grace airbrushed on it. I truly was a klutz.
Then in adulthood, I did not stumble over physical things, but rather over character and holiness issues. I could have been called ‘Grace’ in a very tongue in cheek kinda way because I needed it and wasn’t really looking for it.
Now, I could be called Grace because it has been lavished on me by Jesus.
Nice to meet you, Dixie. I am Grace.

Hmm..nicknames,
I’ve had a few in my life. 🙂
I still have several now that I think about it. It just depends on who is addressing me or talking about me. Some are good, some not so good. 🙂
My sweet husband and my BFF calls me “Sunshine”, that’s a good one.
My BFF also likes to call me “Slacker” from time to time. This is usually when she knows I need a good swift kick in the behind to get me back on track. Most of the time it works, I just hear the word and I want to run to the nearest activity and get to work.
But if I could choose a nickname for myself I think I would like to be called “Luna”. Short for lunar. Why? Because lunar’s definition is: Of, involving, caused by, or affecting the moon.
The earth’s moon does not cast light from within or of itself, it’s light is actually the reflection of the light of the sun. I would like to always be recognized or known as someone who reflects the light of the “SON”.
But, most days, “Slacker” probably fits best.
Love you girl,
Lisa
