Just some stuff.
Countdown Meme
This is a really loooong meme I got from Julie Stiller http://www.highfibercontent.blogspot.com/.

TEN random things you might not know about me:
1. I save wine corks too, for no reason whatsoever. We don't even drink wine. I do use them on the tips of my knitting needles to hold the stitches on when not in use.
2. Speaking of wine, I have a port wine stain on my right hip that looks the Mediterrean Sea.
3. When I was young I dreamed of being an archeologist. Thank God I didn't do that. I hate sand and I hate being hot (or cold).
4. I am not crazy about sunsets. Everyone wants to see them when they come here to Florida, but I see one every day. No biggie.
5. I don't want to be hit by lightining and I am a big sissy, but I will still go out in it to get to my car or in my house. I hate it when it is directly over my house, but I like it too. Strange.
6. I love paying bills. After having been poor for a long time when my kids were young, when I was able to pay my bills I was so thankful. I get peace from writing checks or paying on line. Real peace.
7. When I went to a Charismatic church for the first time I was told to write what I wanted down and put it in my shoe. The only thing I wanted was PEACE of MIND. That didn't float, they wanted me to write a possession. I wrote a microwave oven (& peace of mind), I got them both.
8. I use to think I could make it without friends, but now I am enjoying them very much.9. It hurts my feelings that my daughter-in-law doesn't like me.10. I wish that I could have all my kids and their kids and we all lived in a big house and would never be apart and would all be happy!

NINE places I've visited:

1. Skagway, Ketchikan & Juneau Alaska
2. The Rhinefall in Switzerland 3. Austria
4. Germany5. France6. Tijuana7. Michigan8. Louisiana9. a nudist colony

EIGHT ways to win my heart:
1. Treat me with peace, no yelling, no expecting something from me every time you talk to me.
2. Treat me with respect.
3. Don't argue with me.
4. Don't patronize me. (Danny)
5. Give me presents (yes, I said it!)6. Give me enought money so I never have to work again and I can spend my life doing what I love to do.7. My grandkids do it with their smiles and their "I love you Nana"'s
8. My husband does it by going out of his way to support my latest "addictions".


SEVEN things I want to do before I die:
1. Explore the main part of Alaska (in the summer) and see the wildlife
2. Explore the 13 original colonies
3. Go to Great Britan
4. See the rest of Germany
5. Retire young and enjoy doing what I want to do6. Have a beach house for the winter
7. And a mountain house for the summer.

SIX things I'm afraid of:
1. Lightining
2. Snakes and/or bugs3. Terrorists4. Not dying quickly
5. Tall men6. Being subserviant

FIVE things I don't like:
1. Yelling
2. Vegetables
3. Fruit
4. Exercise
5. Being poor
FOUR ways to turn me off:
1. Yell at me2. Steal from me3. Be lazy or dependent4. Keep asking after I either said yes or no.

THREE things I do every day:
1. Read the paper & do the crossword puzzle 2. Get puppy kisses3. Watch Fox and Friends.

TWO things that make me happy:
1. My family & my dogs2. My friends & my job

ONE thing on my mind right now:
1. Believe it or not - abortion. I am against abortion when it is used as birth control. I think that it is the woman's fault if it happens (not talking about rape). Yes, a woman has a right to choose, but she should choose to protect herself BEFORE she gets pregnant, not after. There I said it.

Tag you're it if you made it to the end. C'mon you know you wanna blab about yourself. Leave me a note in comments if you do, okay?
