I've Been Tagged! Thank You, Molly

Well, it's finally happened! I've been tagged by Mollyhttp://sewhappy10000.blotspot.com/. I think I'm going to scream with excitement. The subject is Weird and Wacky. Alright! That's right up my alley.......First I have to post the rules, then tell you what's so weird and "wacky" about me. Then it's my turn to TAG. Rules: 1. Once you are tagged, link back to the person who tagged you. 2. Post The Rules on your blog. 3. Post 7 weird or random facts about yourself on your blog. 4. Tag 7 people and link to them. 5. Comment on their blog to let them know they have been tagged. About Me: 1. I happen to be a member of the WackyPac Quilting group. The name comes from an experience we had making a Stack & Wack quilt. Needless to say, it took all of us to even make a cut. 2. I taught for 29 years. Nothing wacky or weird about that except I taught fourth grade science and we experimented at least 3 times a week. That's hands-on experiments, people. Thus the nervous tick above my right eye..........hehehehehehehehe 3. Being a science teacher, the students expected pets for the classroom..........That wasn't going to happen and I'll tell you why........I don't like anything that flies, flutters, slithers, crawls, hobbles, gates, etc. You get the picture. However, I did break down one year and had........earthworms for pets......hehehehehehehehehe 4. I do love nature and will hike into the back forty every now and then. We have a lake and lots of wildlife out there.............I carry my bug spray, a shotgun, camera, flashlight, a small hoe......hey, you can't be too prepared! 5. I have developed 4 quilt patterns, two of which were judged in the "Done In One" contest from Fons & Porter this past February. They are now on tour......somewhere. 6. I have no uncles or aunts because my mother and father were only children. 7. I love to take pictures and share with with everyone on my blog or in my automatic picture frame thingy. When I went cruisin' with my "wacky" friends recently, I took 537 pics and movies.....I really looked like a tourist!
