Tagged...


I have been tagged by Bobbie of the Madie Jane blog! Thank you Bobbie!
Here are the rules:
1. List seven random facts/habits about yourself
2. Choose another SEVEN bloggers to tag and list their names in your blog
3. Leave your seven tagged bloggers comments to notfiy them of their tagging and to direct them to your blog for tag instructions.

Let's see...7 facts/habits about me...
1.I am ALWAYS late..sewing launches on eBay...Check! Dinner with friends.....Check check! I have learned to just slow down when I am late too! The more that you rush when you are late, the later you become! Or at least that is what I tell myself ;)

2.I have 6 (count them 6!) brothers and sisters, who all live in Texas. I am the middle child and am the only child who moved out-of-state ( I live in Pensacola, Florida, 10 hours away from the family) Makes for lonely holidays...but really fun reunions!

3. I love trendy clothes for my son or husband, but could care less about how "stylish" I appear. Gasp! Walmart and Old Navy are cool enough for this Momma! Honestly, I am like most moms that I know and I have a hard time spending money on myself when I can buy my son or dh something-- the only thing that I require is fabric!

4. I walk on the sandy white beaches of Perdido Key at least 5 times a week (yeah you'd think I would be slimmer!?! LOL), searching for beach toys left behind by all of the tourists! We have a big bucket full and don't worry I bleach them before I re-gift them to my son!

5. I was an Air Traffic Controller in the Air Force and I despised it. Even thinking of it now gives me shivers. Sewing and crafting are definately a better fit for my beachy lifestyle! Some days it is just hard to get motivated with the beach outside beckoning me to come play outdoors. Luckily the dh seems to "get it" that summer is definately a down time and my "work" picks up in the fall.

6. I am a bad cook. I burn things. It goes with the old Texas theory that if a little is good than a lot is better! Evidently if it says 350 degrees on the recipe, I guess it means it! And 475-500 will burn it to a crisp!! However, I do make a mean no-bake Jello cheesecake!! LOL

7. My dh and I never had a honeymoon! Sad but true! He worked the rest of the day and has been working almost everyday since then. I have what some would call a work-a-holic hubby who PROMISES for our 10th Annniversary we will have our delayed honeymoon! YAY...only a year and a half to go!

Okay... I am new to the land of blogging so I can really only think of one person to TAG...

My new friend Renee of CANDY STICK LANE!
