Useless Info About Me
Connie over at BrainFoggles tagged me for a “little meme” which NO ONE HAS EVER DONE BEFORE. So, I am honored by my internet and DOUA friend to give the world a view of useless information and/or what my kids call….."TMI"….too much information. Eat this up, Chatta Mom fans, (all three or four of you) ‘cause, as you know, this is something I rarely do….get personal. Or if I do, I leave it up for a couple of days and then tear it down. SO…..look fast. Heh heh.
The Rules:
“Each person links to the person who tagged them. Then each person posts the rules before their list, then they list 8 things about themselves. At the end of the post, that person tags and links to 8 other people and then visits those peoples’ sites and comments letting them know that they have been tagged, and to come read the post, so they know what they have to do.”
1) When I was 14 or 15 years old, I was under the gun. A crazy squatter hermit, off a back country road, (where I was riding horses with a guy friend), pointed his shotgun dead aim at us. Scary. Needless to say, we rode off into the sunset in a hurry. Of course, this is one of those stories I never shared with my folks.
2) I have only one or two prejudices: 1. folks who drive slow in the left hand passing lane, are usually mindlessly snuggled up to a car in the right lane and in their blind spot, and nobody can pass them. EKKKK! Drives me crazy! and 2. the paparazzi. Don't make me get on my soapbox, folks. Just thought of a third. I avoid whiney, fussy, nervous, high-strung folks like the plague. Sheesh!
3) I absolutely hate shopping….clothes, groceries, etc. but you cannot get me out of a book store.
4) I have a bad habit of correcting peoples' language on the TV. A lot of good that does. NOT, “I wish I WAS……!!!! IT IS, “I wish I WERE,” drives me batty. My sister does this also. This is an inherited trait from our mother.
5) Events, programs, suppers, parties I can organize in a snap, but absolutely cannot guide, lead, or direct people. Not my forte.
6) When my two grandsons are able to sit up on their own, I plan to get them on a horse to get their picture made.
7) There are at least two guardian angels (maybe more) who take very good care of me. I have to apologize to them regularly for the scrapes I lead them through.
8) I have traveled as far North as International Falls, MN, as far South as Key West FL., as far East as Sea Island, GA., and as far West as San Francisco, CA. At 16, my older sister and I went to explore the beaches and bars of Baja, CA. I have also been to Israel once, but have a friend who has been to Israel over 35 times. Whew!
*******
Okay Connie. Hope this works for ya, friend. Unfortunately, I don't know eight other bloggers that well, or the one or two that I do know have already done this two or three times. Sorry....
