Tag I'm It


I've been tagged by Debra at Hop Hop Jingle Boo to write 5 random things about myself, then tag 7 others. So, here goes:
1) I could never be elected president, and it's not because I'm not polling well in Iowa or New Hampshire--it's because I wasn't born in the US ; 2) I'm related to Mother Goose, seriously--she was a real person, and our family tree traces back to her family in Boston; 3) I sleep in socks, always; 4) I get motion sickness on a porch swing, so don't even ask what I do on a Merry-Go-Round; 5) When I was a kid I found out the hard way that not everyone can float with an umbrella like Mary Poppins.

So now I tag: Jeannene and Mila, at Love Conquers All, because it's Mila's birthday; "The Samstress" at Gollywobbles; Amy at Crafting by Candlelight; Michelle at Faerie Dust Dreams; Lori at Faerie Window; Kim at Calamity Kim; and Suzanne at Painter of the Past

Hi Cathy!
Loved reading about the antics of Friendly the Cat!
Did ya'll get some rain up that way yet? I've been seeing on the news about how low the lakes are because of the drought. It's even been dry down here lately.
Take care!
Bebe :)

I sleep in socks too. I tied an unbrella to our fence~somehow that rope was supposed to help? Go figure. Anyway, I must'ev jumped off that fence 30 times with tears streaming down my face, cause I never went up. Tears of frustration. Funny, I know that the Scriptures tell us that every tear is known by our Lord, and He keeps them in His bottle. Someday I'll go up and I won't need an umbrella!
