My cousin, Jenny (aka “Jenna”), tagged me today.
Rules: Once you are tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits or goals about yourself. At the end, choose 25 people to tag, including the person that tagged you. (No pressure. Do this only if it’s fun for you.)
25. I don’t think I know 25 people to tag.
24. I love to sit on stormy days and listen to the wind and rain against the house.
23. I often wonder why the people around me feel they know more about me than I do about myself.
22. My favorite scent in the whole world is warm barn and contented horse. If I could get it in a candle, I’d burn it all the time.
21. A psychic once told me my guardian angels get frustrated with me because I don’t listen.
20. I’m trying to learn to listen to my guardian angels.
19. I believe in ghosts, but have never seen one.
18. I love the power of a newly-sharpened pencil.
17. My favorite color is green.
16. My favorite sound is the boom-hiss of the ocean meeting the shore.
15. If I didn’t write to get the voices out of my head, I’d go insane.
14. If I could go anywhere in the world, I’d go to the Ireland and Scotland.
13. I love the ocean but hate the beach.
12. Autumn is my favorite time of year.
11. I think adversity is best handled with humor. Black humor is better than no humor.
10. I’ve finally decided to accept my path in this life; even if it means I won’t ever have an office or a desk of my own and have to rely on my husband to survive.
9. I often dream about moving to a house with secret rooms and extra spaces.
8. I honestly believe ’50’s women were content with being housewives because there was an established happy hour in place. Highballs, anyone?
7. The historical figure I’d most like to meet is Jesus Christ.
6. The historical person I’d most like to have a drink with is Mark Twain.
5. The historical figure I’d most like to take to a concert is Henry David Thoreau.
4. If I could go back to any one time of history, I think I’d like to visit the Regency period of England for a few days.
3. I’d love to learn to sail.
2. If I won a million dollars, I’d give most of it away; we are already blessed in so many ways.
1. If I died tomorrow, I’d want people to remember me for my smile, my desire to laugh and my sense of humor.
