My friend Billie Jo at the blog Afternoon Coffee and Evening Tea you can find here: http://afternooncoffeeandeveningtea.blogspot.com/ shared a post the other day of some fun facts about herself, that blogging friends may not know. She encouraged others to share too - so here's a few things about me you may not know. Especially if you're newer here.
*I know you probably know I live on a bay in the northwoods of WI - but did you know that if you go a little ways out of my bay you will be in Lake Superior. It is one of the Great Lakes and it's the largest freshwater lake in the world. It's also the coldest and deepest of the Great Lakes. And it's where the Edmund Fitzgerald sunk (the one in the Gordon Lightfoot song). I often pontoon on Lake Superior - but we respect her and are very careful.
*I can't stand mushrooms. The texture to me is like rubber and they taste metallic to me.
*I have a heart "ring" tattoo on my right hand ring finger. It's red and the outline of it and "band" that wraps on each side of my finger is in black (with some blue highlights behind) and makes a sideways letter "A" which is the first initial of both of my kiddos names.
*Red is my favorite color
*I have a form of synesthesia where I see numbers and letters as masculine and feminine and some have personalities to me. For example I see a lot of odd numbers as male - but 9 to me is feminine and is a tomboy. I've had it my whole life and just thought everyone did when I was young.
*I had a "tickle blanket" when I was a kid and I sucked my finger and had to have my blanket to rub my face. I had the blanket until I was in 6th grade and still sucked my finger a bit into junior high school.
*My daughter is my biological daughter, but she was carried by my sister-in-law because I had preeclampsia with my son and almost died...so they told me not to get pregnant again. So my ex husband was on her birth certificate and so was my SIL and I had to go before the courts to "adopt" my own biological daughter to have the birth certificate changed to my name as birth mother.
*I love to golf (& play other sports) and I hope to live in AZ on a golf course in the winters one day. (that's Matt's plan too thankfully 😂 )
*I love to watch jeopardy every day and just love trivia in general. My kiddos think I'm smart - but I really just have a pretty good memory for that stuff.
I'd love to know more about you too - so please feel free to share some interesting things about yourself!
