7 Things You May Not Know About Me

Most of the time I get tagged by Marcia for these wonderful little insights into my life, but today Ariane did! Since Ariane doesn't usually do these sorts of things I figured why the heck not! Coming up with 7 things that people don't know about me that I can actually SHARE is going to be the real trick! I mean, come on, my mom reads this blog too!

Let's see if we can make this somewhat interesting and more than a little embarrassing!

  1. The first time I ever went to prom I wore a red strapless dress and was sporting a lovely bruise on my shoulder and couldn't hear a damn thing because I went out shooting with my dad beforehand. It was the first time I ever shot a 12-gauge shotgun AND a .44. (I am thinking it did it on purpose!)
  2. I am still friends with the first boyfriend I ever had and that was...oh, good God! 23 years ago!!!!
  3. I dated a guy who said his name was Kalel and said he was from Scotland. Ended up being married, from Wisconsin and who knew? Kalel is the name of Superman!! Ya, that's a REAL FUNNY STORY! Still gets told during the holidays. (Don't talk to THAT one anymore!)
  4. I flew with the entire Phoenix Coyotes to San Jose and met the entire team. Did I mention I was shaking Shane Doan's hand when they announced he made it to the All-Stars? It was SOOOO cool!
  5. I have been in two car accidents, both in December, neither my fault; rolled down the mountain between Payson and Pine and then crashed head on into the barrier on the US60 going 75mph. Didn't get hurt in either accident. (I think Heaven can't handle me and Hell is afraid of me!)
  6. I have been married and divorced twice. Yaaaa, I'm a bit of a pain in the butt.
  7. I have moved more times than I am an old! (THAT IS DISGUSTING!)

So there you go. My functioning dysfunctional life. The great part is that the holidays are never dull and there is always some embarrassing ancedote we can tell to the kids. "You know, your Aunt Sue did this...don't do what she did."

And they awarded me the Top 3 Most Influential Women in Arizona. Who would have ever thought THAT was possible! ;o)

Now it's my turn! I'm tagging some of MY darling friends.
