Okay, here goes...
1. I never drive over the speed limit...NEVER!
2. I have romantically kissed only two men in my lifetime.
3. I am obsessive about my penmanship. I have extreme difficulty writing on unlined paper without a straight edge, even if I'm just jotting down a note.
4. I have never met a cheese I didn't like.
5. I am fascinated by nuns and wonder if I ignored a calling to become one.
6. I am deathly afraid of bats.
7. I would like to learn to polka.

Annette, there are a lot of southern men with a drawl where I live.
I love reading these, too, Michele. I hope it continues.

Here goes:
1. My hubby and I share the same birthday, we are 4 years apart.
2. I can swim just fine but have a deep seated fear of drowning and will not swim in water over my head.
3. I was born in the UK and love to visit my relatives there.
4. Love airplanes and wanted to be a flight attendant when I was growing up.
5. Love the ocean and my favorite vacations are ones at the beach.
6. I am a fabricaholic and love to make quilts.
7. I have read the "Little House on the Prairie" series of books multiple times since I was 8. Anne of Green Gables comes in as the second series of books I have read the most.

Well, let's see....
1. I have 5 wonderful children, one son went to be with the Lord at age 7 due to an auto accident, so Heaven is a very special place for
me. One is a Marine pilot and the father of my two precious grandchildren, one is an optometrist, one is a doctor of audiology (my
only daughter), and my youngest son is a student at North Texas Univ. in vocal performance/opera.
1 and 1/2. I am a terrible speller!! I keep a dictionary close.
2. I am a retired first grade teacher and piano teacher..had to retire due to extreme crippling arthritis. I still miss the classroom
each and every day!!
3. I cannot remember ever not making things, as in crafting, etc...I love handmade, vintage, thrift stores, antiquing, cupcakes, Rudolph
the reindeer things, sewing, I cannot just sit, I have to be doing something. My mind works and constantly looks at things to see if
there is any way of altering items..I have to have a project of something going...
4. I do believe in being kind to everyone even if people are not kind to me...It is just easier to live like that and not hold grudges.
5. We have had a lot of tragedy in our lives, our son's death, an arsonist burned my husband's business down, never knew who, 6 of our
parents, grandparents, a very close aunt all died within a 5 year period, and 5 years ago my husband fell 60 feet onto concrete, spent
5 months in the hospital and now can walk!! Tragedy, yes, but blessings abundant!!
6. Love diet coke, trying to drink more water, love breakfast for supper.
7. Love my southern heritage even though I get so teased about my southern accent..Love the sense of roots and the timelessness of being
born and living my 58 years in the same place... love the shadows in the woods where we live and the "katydids" singing in the oak
trees late in the evenings. Music to my ears...
8. Thankful to know how to love and be loved. Smiles...........
You can never be to kind! |

This is great - here goes:
1 - I have a deaf Border Collie mix named Hector
2 - my house was destroyed by a tornado in 1990
3 - I once rode in an elevator with Milton Berle - we laughed a lot
4 - my husband and I met in college in a soil science class
5 - I drink my morning tea outside with my dogs every morning - rain or shine, hot or cold
6 - I give thanks every day for another day on Earth - Life is good.
7 - I prefer old and used stuff in my house instead of new...
Thanks for sharing everyone - this is fun.
