Here's the famous "7 Things About Me" finally, as requested.
.
I don't follow instructions well. But sure, I can mutalate the rules of
Jannie Funster's Meme ...
What do ya mean, it doesn't have to be complicated? Every thing I do gets that way, n everything has a reason! I drive people nuts because of "complication factors" all the time. OK, your turn-

Note: I'm semi-secret here on ESR. Altho many commentors know exactly who I am off-line, I won't divulge my name, exact location, my actual age, n many other personal details, except in ball-park figures, in order to protect the innocent. I did a Meme " 5 BAD HABITS THAT I NEED TO REVEAL TO THE WORLD" about me awhile back in Dec '05. ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
7 Things About Me
.
1.) I prefer natural surroundings to concrete anytime. I can't stand living in the city, so I don't. I grew up 15 minutes from Boston. Now I live an hour away.
.
2.) I'm short! Of the five in my sibling group, my parents, n my kids, I'm the shortest.
I measured 5'2" once, but I've shrunken- Gravity is taking a toll as the years roll.
.
3.) I was a Girl Scout for ten years. It did something to me. I never ignore some one in my day I know that I can help, even if it makes me late, n also I'm very brave. I don't know why when I go to the store, folks ask me questions like I work there.
.
4.) I attended college as a single parent, then I sent my children to college.
I never got a grade lower than B all the way thru five years of full-time college, but that didn't help me get work in my field locally, except in self-employment.
I earned a BFA magna cum laude (high honors) in Visual Design (from UMass).
.
5.) I have two brothers n two sisters. I have two kids who each have two kids.
Then they'll tell two friends, who'll tell two friends... n so on...
.
6.) I used to repair outboard motors for boats. I was a grease-monkey in a bathing suit for six years. (The tan was great, but I had to stop injuring my hands).
.
7.) I have many allergies which get in my way. Because I'm allergic to the fragrance in your fabric softener, n you're less than three feet from me, I'll get a rash n a head-ache for two weeks... I also have a reactive airway (asthma attack) when my threshold gets low (as it is now).
-Excuse me while I go die in the corner. Where did I leave my plastic Bubble?

I'll Challenge the following folks to attempt this feat of blog-hood:

Well, well, well, well, well, well,
Who knew all the greatness in one little gal?
LOVED every one of these.
I think I love the natural world more too, but if I had to be in concrete I do believe a fine hotel in Paris, London or NY might tempt me to live in for a while, with daily forays to museums and such.
Girl Scout for 10 years. I'm not surprised. And that is a wonderment. So many kids are missing that today.
Geez on the Visual Design from UMass and putting the kiddoes through college too. Hot dang. And cool.
# 5 -- I remember that shampoo commercial!
#6 -- good lord. That is something I can't say will ever be on my resume.
Allergies suck. A lot.
Fantastic sharing, Snag. Far above and beyoond the blog call of duty.
THANK YOU!!!
xo
JanF, I actually hate hotels! My Mother was the GSA leader, n made me do it all those years. I still owe student loans for the kids too-
5 is only funny if you knew that commercial-
I do have a bad habit of doing too much for assignments (note: that's how you get A's).
Now I need an A in making cash- who doesn't?
Hi, Snaggletooth. I'm coming to you from Jannie's blog.
I have that stuck in my head now...and I can see the screen filling up with faces..."and they'll two friends...and so on..." I think it was Herbal Essence shampoo?
Yes, nature over man-made...I totally get that.
I was a Brownie and a Girl Scout - definitely some great life lessons there!
I only have one allergy (penicillin), so I can't imagine what you must deal with on a daily basis.
Thanks for sharing your facts. Even while you remain incognito, it's great you shared. Now I HAVE to go look at your five bad habits!
Oh, I forgot to mention I was one of the memed from lovely Jannie.
Hi Talon, welcome to ESR! I remember you from your many comments on JanFundotCom. I'll make it to your blog when I get enough time off. My Day Off got cancelled again this week- Rats! The new commercail was shampoo, but there was an older one from '70's TV too.
Ah, you co-signed their loans... I was on my own on those.
n so on
n so on
n so on...
JanF, They had loans of a couple grand, mine for them were over 20K, no co-signing.
I still can't come up with the other commercial item!
MilkBrain is now leading the pack in getting her 7 meme done!
Yay MB! Thanks-
Xray Chick has done a long list of things, so I'll have to let her off the hook, altho she's an over-achiever...
