10 things about me (again)

Today is Day #5 at  Kickin' it Old Skool

and the girls  are asking us 

to list 10 things about ourselves.

1

 I love About Me lists.

Even though I am an introvert and a recluse

 I am chatty and I do like sharing.

So here we go.

2

I am married to a lifeguard.

I love dogs.

We are trying to not rescue dogs anymore 

because we are getting older.

Today we have four dogs.

 

I am mom to two adult children.

I am a grandmother to one sweet grand daughter.

 

3

I love meeting new people.

I believe the best days of my life haven't been lived yet.

And I have had one awesome life so far.

It makes me excited to think the best is yet to be.

4

I am a spiritual mixed bag.

an earth and nature loving,

 eclectic solitary

person who respects all religious beliefs.

I practice kindness, love, truth and forgiveness.

I respect all living creatures

I do not label my beleifs 

but

I have been called a Pagan, a Christian and a Buddhist all in the last week.

I do believe Love is all we need

 

5

I am an Artist

I am a Quilter

I am a Gardener

I am a Good Cook

6

I love to travel.

I have visited 49 states  

and a few of the Caribbean Islands 

Alaska is on my list.

After that I will travel outside the US

Africa, Australia and Europe ...in that order.

7

I am fortunate to have a home in a forest

and a home on a beach

I love both equally and spend most of my time barefoot.

8

 I am extremely terrified of lightning.

But I am fascinated by storms, hurricanes, tornadoes

9

I am an organized hoarder.

I collect craft and art supplies, kitchen gadgets,

coffee mugs, stars, suns, fairies, santas, plates, 

and

owls

 I  been collecting owls since I was a kid in the 60s

....it's funny how popular they are again

10

I recently lost 75 pounds

I stopped eating sugar.

when I eat sugar the pounds add up.

It's not the same for everyone. 

I had a great time learning about me and my body

while figuring out what I could and couldn't eat.

I am looking forward to reading all of the ten things the other participants sharing.

if you would like to know more about me:

 About Me page

and even more here on

 Ten Ten Ten,

 More More More,

 It's never too late,

 and

 One World One Heart

see you tomorrow !
