Six Strange Things About Me.

1. I can not sleep with covers on my feet. My dad can not, nor can his mother, and now my daughter suffers from the same quirky behaviour.

2. When I kissed My Husband for the first time, the two of us both said'Ahhh, It's you... You're the one!' And both of us were kinda disappointed as we were both really into dating. Our wings were willingly clipped.

3. I wrote in a diary at the age of thirteen. A diary that I actually wrote for my daughter, all the turbulant teen moments I wrote down for my daughter to read when she turns of age. I have not looked at it since, but have it in a safe place to give my dear, Sweet, Scooter when she turns thirteen and to realize that I was a kid too.

4. When I was seventeen I cycled 250 miles up hill on a two lane highway, with my boyfriend on a tank of a bike that had one gear, and I had no training...Stupidest moment of my life... But Gosh, Darn, I did it!!! In less than two days!

5. My daughter being born in the cull has proven to be psychic. It can be quite scary at times. I will post about it at some point.

6. I can not stand bad manners.
