Did you know....

thrity year old house plant
Did you know.....?

  • ...I have a green thumb. My houseplants grow, one I have had 30+ years. I do pretty well outside when I put my  mind to it... hope to this summer.
  • ...I have had the same job for 26 years. Pretty amazing these days.
  • ...when I was young I lived in England. My dad was Air Force and had two tours to the UK. I lived there for 7 years total.
  • ...seeing the pyramids has always been a dream of mine.
  • ...traveling to all the great cities of the US would be a hobby if I could afford it.
  • ...I am going to St. Louis this Thursday to visit a friend. I have known her for 5 years and only met her briefly in 2007. [see below]
  • ...I am a big Robbie Williams fan and thanks to him [or Keane if you ask my daughter] I have met so many great people. Some I have never met but consider true friends.
  • ...I can't sing, but would love to.
  • ...the multiplication tables are hard for me. I understand them but for some reason can not memorize them. 8 times 6... no idea.
  • ...purses are my addiction.. plus chocolate and peanut butter, together or seperate.
  • ...my mind is a sieve...I had another to write and forgot what it was.

so you are not doing the A-Z challenge - very wise. How does that work? Does Robbie introduce you to people?

They taught us songs to learn the multiplication tables. I still remember them. And 8 times 6 rhymes if you do it right: "Six times eight is forty-eight."

And what you don't know about me? That's a lot more than this comment form.

Wow...you'll be in the same area as I am tomorrow. I am good at keeping my plants alive but I got tired of being the only one who minds them. :(

I used to eat boiled pigs' feet as a kid--with lots of mustard. Tried them as an adult...ugh. Why is that?

MiMi said...

See? We could be twins. Cuz my addiction is purses and I wanna go to england and I love chocolate and peanut butter and all that stuff.
Except if I LOOK at a plant it will die.

My brother in law had a cactus for 25 years.

I killed it in 6 days.

Plants fear me.
