My good friend,
Molly, has honored me with an award who name is Honest Scrap which is slightly scary. But, I'll willing to give it a try. The only rule is that I reveal 10 facts about myself that I haven't necessarily shared with anyone.
1. I always wanted a sister to laugh and play with and giggle with until mom said "go to sleep"
2. I always wanted to be a housewife. I never wanted to work, although I don't regret teaching for a moment.
3. I wish I knew more about this fast moving computer age with blogging, twittering, widgets and what'sits. This is one time that I really see the generation gap.
4. I always wanted to travel overseas or go around the world but now that I am able to.......I really don't want to anymore.....Weird but true.
5. Even though I never had children, two wonderful boys & now men, wandered their way into my life and made my life richer. I'm very proud of the men they have become. And I'm really happy that I'm a GoGo (grandma).
6. I am afraid of firing a gun. In fact, just folding a gun makes me ill. This is strange because I'm a Texan & all of my relatives proudly own, carry, hunt and shoot weapons regularly.
7. Now that I'm retired, I need to organize my time better because at this point, I mess off half the day doing nothing other than bird watching, which I enjoy immensely but I do have other responsibilities that I avoid at all costs.
8. I'm very happy to be 53 years old. I know that some of us don't want to think about or admit our ages but to me, it feels so good to know that I've made it to retirement. I have excellent girlfirends and a hobby that we share. The girls don't know this, but I really love them and can't wait to talk to or see them. Talking is usually on a daily basis but I still look forward to the evening chats.
9. I think about my weight alot, keep a running tap when I weigh but then, I'll turn right around and eat a whole pecan pie. Go figure!
10. When all is said and done, I truly love my life, my family and my Wacky girlfirends. Some people want to go back in life or call back 20 years and start from a certain age. If I were given that opportunity, I can honestly say, I wouldn't go back. All that I am, all that I've done to get me to this point is the sum of me and I'm happy with that. I'm truly blessed.
Now, I must list 5 addictions..........this is going to be very easy!
1. Reading romance novels
2. Quilting/Embroidering
3. Eating Pecan Pie
4. Shopping for fabric that I don't need
5. Blogging/Checking my E-mail
