I've Been Tagged!

Hello Sweet Friends,

Much to my surprise I was tagged

 this evening by Carol over at

 "An oasis in the Desert".

Thanks for thinking of me Carol....

once in awhile these things are fun,

and truly are a way to get to know

 others a little bit better.

and these are the questions.....

1.  Are you named after someone??

Yes,  my paternal Grandmother and I was

called Little Nellie for many years of my life.

2.  When was the last time you 

cried??

Monday night, while watching a yahoo video

of several Russian men trying to rescue a 

mature kitten out of a  suspension spring

under a truck, that had traveled 50 miles.

It was really so sweet how they were all

working together and laughing but truly

concerned about the kitten.  Once they got

 her out,  one man was really cuddling

and comforting her.  

What can I tell you......I am a crier......

and very moved by sweet and tender

things like that.

3.  Do you have Kiddos?

Most of you know I do, cause I talk about

them all the time.  My oldest is a son, named

 Scott,  and his wife Megan,

 My daughter is named DeeAnna and her

hubby is Jerry.

and We have one Grand Kiddo named

Brooklyn, who is almost 16 mos. old

Scott, Megan and Brooklyn

DeeAnna and Jerry

4. If you were another person,

  would you be a friend of yourself??

Yes,  cause I am a friend to myself now!!  lol

5.  Do you have a guilty pleasure??

Yes, it is a chocolate Elvis from Planet Smoothie

6.  Do you like handwriting?

I love handwriting, although since having a pinched

nerve in my neck for about the last 9 years my once

 good handwriting now looks terrible and is hard to

read, some days are better than others but I mostly

print now or write things on the computer, so folks

can read them.  lol

7.  What is your favorite cereal??

Right now, it is rice and corn chex, cause I am trying

to eat gluten free.

8.   What is the first thing you notice 

about people?

I think it is whether they look happy or not

or their countenance I guess you would say.

9.  What is the color of your eyes?

Dark Brown

10.  Scary movie or Happy Ending?

Definitely, movies with Happy Endings,  I hate scary

 movies, had enough scary in my life as a child.  lol

11.  Favorite TV Shows??

We really don't watch a lot of TV, unless it is movies,

so they would be true stories, inspirational movies,

comedy's or romantic comedy's, and the Christian station.

When we go away on vacation and have cable we

 like HGTV (not as much as I used to tho, since 

they hardly have any decorating anymore

and animal planet.

I know, I know.......we are strange!!  lol

12.  Do you like Winter or Summer?? 

I have to say I function better in Winter cause of the

cooler weather,  it is a joy not to have hot flashes

and times of being cold.............Bliss for me!!

But I do love the beauty of Summer and like to get

a tan, but just can't stand to be out in it long since

we live in Florida and sometimes have 100 degree

 weather.

13. Hugs or kisses?

Definitely a hugger.......

14.  Do you have a special talent??

 I think I have a talent for making things looks pretty, 

and for making others feel special and welcomed,

and have had others tell me that as well.

15.  Where were you born?

I was born in the Florida Panhandle...

16.  what are your hobbies??

I like reading, decorating, making cards, setting

pretty tables, working in the yard, (but not as

much as I used to since the pinched nerve, can't
do as much without paying for it  pain wise!) 
watching movies, visiting with family and 
friends, and of course, blogging!!  lol

and in the past year visiting Asheville, N.C

 where our daughter and son-in-love now live.

17. Do you have any pets?

Yes, we have a beautiful and sweet natured

black and white kitty, who adopted us!!   lol

We are really allergic to cats, but we thought

someone dropped her off and started feeding

her cause we felt bad for her..........and we

thought well, she is an outside cat, that
 wouldn't be so bad.....but she has become
an inside cat too, now..........but not
 all day long thankfully!  lol

18.  Favorite movie?

Actually It is hard to pick cause I have at
least two.................

You've Got Mail -It is a romantic comedy and
just a fun movie and I love Meg Ryan's
 perkiness and she and Tom Hanks are
just great together, and loved the ending.

The perfect stranger - It is really
a captivating movie,
There are 2 by that name.....the one
I like was made in 1994, and has a woman
with long curly hair on the cover.

19.  What color is your car??

I drive a white Mini Van and I love her!

20.  What do you want to be

 when you grow up?

I am still trying to figure that out, as I have

worn many hats over the years..........and

liked or loved most of them.  Actually I am
 pretty happy with who I am as a person, and 
think that is more important that what I do,
Yet I also know...... that God isn't finished
 with me yet!

Well, there you have it....and I am gonna
