D ~ dogs, we have 2, Lola and Lottie

pork and beans

E ~ essential start to my day   Coffee, intravenously if possible, lol.

F ~ Favorite color Blue, blue, blue

G ~ gold or silver – gold but wear very little jewelry, just not into bling.

H ~ height – 5 ft 3 inches

I ~ instrument I play ~ does sewing machine count?

J ~ job title – wife, mom, yaya, weaver, cook, seamstress, stitcher, gardener, chief bottlewasher, laundress, domestic goddess

K  ~ kids, 3

N ~ nicknames ~ jo, dwarf, midge (for midget), Bucky cuz I had an uncle Buck.  I think simon calls me most anything except Pam

O ~ overnight hospital stay, several for 4 surgeries

P ~ pet peeve – when I’m talking to someone on the phone and they put me on hold to take another call. 

Q ~ quote from a movie -  If you can’t say something nice about someone, come sit next to me.  from Steel Magnolias

R ~ right or left handed – I’m a rightie

T ~ TV shows – Gray’s Anatomy, Private Practice, Criminal Minds, Boss, reruns of Seinfeld and Frasier, Friends, too

U ~ underwear ~ yes, thank you

V ~ veggie I hate – Lima Beans

W ~ what makes me late – I’m usually one of those people that are a couple of minutes early

X ~ xrays, lots of them, most recently about 15 of my arm

Y ~ yummy food, I love pizza but two of my faves that I make are chicken lasagna and chicken enchiladas

Z ~ zoo animals ~ I love to watch the monkeys, they are a hoot.

What scares me ~ snakes and scary movies.  I hated the exorcist, amityville horrors, the chuckie movies, anything sick and twisted.

I decided this was fun to play along with the few I’ve seen doing it.  I love to read about my fellow bloggers and get to know them a little better. 

Now I’m going to add to this.  A couple of years back alot of my fellow bloggers were posting 5 things you don’t know about me.  Here are 5 about me:

1.  I went to school in Wisconsin to learn how to artificially breed cows, I also know how to castrate bull calves before banding was popular.

2. I’m a retired nurse.

3. I’ve lived in northern Mi. my whole life.

4. I was a cheerleader for 6 yrs back, back, way back when.

5. I would love to own my own primitve shop but the economy is too rough.

I hope you all decide to play along, what fun!

til next time ~

I've been reading your blog now for a while and I never knew those things. Awesome!
I'm missing Michigan even though I have been gone only a month. You'll always be an internet friend I'll follow because you are such a wonderful woman, funny as well as talented.
All the Best,
