7 Things

My daughter Rachel tagged me on her blog. So, here are the rules:
1) thank and talk about whoever gave you the award
So, Thanks, Rachel, for selecting me. In the spirit of the blog, I decided I would upload the first photo I found of you---here it is! Eating lunch at one of the restaurants in Brookside (Kansas City) last year. Rachel is my middle daughter---tall (for us), hilarious, artistic, a great mom and helpful daughter (she loves to re-arrange/re-decorate my house even when I do NOT ask her to----like the time she decided my wallpaper was "tired" and she started ripping it off days before her sister's graduation party. . .but I digress).

2) share 7 facts about yourself

1. I used to have a phobia for palm trees---I think I had a bad experience with one in another life time.
2. I can NOT just listen to music. Music is for dancing to, swaying to, tapping a pencil to, but not sitting still and listening----listening to music in the car drives me C-R-A-Z-Y.
3. I have problems with foods which stick to the roof of my mouth---bananas, peanut butter sandwiches.
4. I do NOT like extremists---I am very much a centrist---I no longer respond to people's extreme view because they are usually way too close minded to even have a discussion.
5. The only alcohol I drink is/are beer and wine---I'm not even tempted to drink anything else.
6. I'm a little on the hyper side and don't understand how people can teach while sitting at a desk.
7. I'd rather work outside than inside---my house may have dust but you won't find many weeds in my beds.

3) give the award to 7 other bloggers who rock!

My daughters Rebecca and Leah; my nieces Lynn and Christi---DANG, I don't know 7 bloggers!
