8 Things About Me

My friend, and fellow digi-scrapper, Tracy, of Latte Dah Designs, tagged me for this meme. I often don't do the memes I get tagged with, depends on how busy I am, and whether or not the meme appeals to me. . . I decided to do this one; it's short, fun, and I could finish it quickly, and maybe it provides some info about me that will interest, horrify, or amuse you, LOL!

I'm not tagging anyone, but if you'd like to do this, please feel free, and make sure to let me know where you post your answers (or send them to me in an email). I save these for my family and close friends 'cuz someday I'm going to compile them all in a book and torture you with them, ha ha ha ha ha!!!!

I think memes also let you take a quick, close, peek at yourself and your life as it currently is, like a snapshot, in a way, and someday, we're going to really enjoy looking back on the answers. So here are my answers:
