7 Random Things

I have been tagged by Seaspray in a meme to give seven facts about me.

I don’t care for memes as they are like chain letters and only clog up computer networks, however seeing it is the lovely Seaspray I will happily give seven random facts about me.

I am heading towards my three score years and ten

I have very big feet.

I swear I am 5 foot six (and a half) but recently seem to have shrunk.

I have 2 sons and 1 daughter all of whom I love

I have 3 grandsons and 1 granddaughter (who is an expert at doing “cute”), again all of whom I love.

I am nearly always to be found (when not on the internet) with my nose buried in a book.

I love cooking.

Hi Elaine- "the lovely SeaSpray"...awww that is sweet of you to say. If anyone gets testy with me today I will have to tell that that I have it on good authority that I am "lovely". ;)

I wasn't sure if I should leave as an open tag or just tag. I actually do like memes but I am behind in them. :)

I have a large size foot too. I remember that from grade school and I was always the 2nd tallest girl in my class until I got to H.S.- 5'8".

Our granddaughters must be in cahoots because she is expert at doing cute too. :)

7 Random facts

According to a popular phrase, my life is due to start shortly ;-)

I have feet wide enough to match those of a camel (Thanks dad!)

I have no children, but I have loads of nephews, 2 nieces, one husband and two cats – and that’s enough!

I love helping people!! Ive been passionate about this all my life!

Im going to Amsterdam later this month (taking hubby, leaving the cats lol)

I have the ability to get lost even when going in a straight line

I spend way too much time on line playing runescape, and not enough making my husbands patchwork waistcoat!

1 I am rather bossy. ( I simply can't help myself!)
2 I am totally in love with an exceptional man.
3 I have 2 amazing sons.
4 I have 2 and a half brothers that are brillant
5 I love my job
6 I love eating and drinking wine
7 I am rubbish at keeping in touch with everyone!

Wow - that wasn't so hard, in fact could probably have gone on indefinitely.
