For fun: Just the facts, tell us things we might not know about you.

Okay, here's my list. Let's see what I can come up w/.

I've only lived in three states my whole life. Born in Kansas, lived in Cali from a few mos old to three yrs old, back to KS until 18, then to Florida for three yrs and back to KS.

I've had the same job for 14 yrs today. Gads!!! I really need a change. I get deja view of deja view quite often. I can actually remember remembering something happening. Kinda like it's already happened twice. Does that make sense.

My dad had polio when he was 2 and was in a wheelchair his whole life.

I'm very passionate about my 7up collection. I get excited when I stumble across that one item that I don't already have and that I can actually afford to purchase.

I had a paper route from the 5th grade to my soph yr. Walked it 6 days a week through the heat of summer and ice of winter.

I believe in salvation and that there is an afterlife.

I've never had a problem chit chatting w/ strangers that I'll prolly never see again, but when meeting new people/friends I'm quite shy at first.

I'm a Quaker. A member of the Evangelical Friends Church. Present day quakers are called friends. I'm also the church secretary. We're a quite small congregation, but there are several friends churches in my area. I love the desert southwest. It's the most beautiful terrain in the world as far as I'm concerned. I have several cactus around my house and this year I put in a rock garden full of succulents.

I can't wait for spring to arrive each year so that I can get out in my flower beds and hit all the nurseries.

I have a brother whom no one in the family, not even his own 15 yr old daughter, has heard a word from in nearly eight years. I told my mom if anything happens to her I won't be notifying him. We do know how to get ahold of him through an in-law, just don't know exactly where he is. Somewhere in FL.

I believe in angels and that God sends them to us when there's a need. I also believe in the power of prayer. I've seen both in action.

I've worn glasses since I was in the third grade.

I'm the awfullest procrastinator that I know.

I've never been married but did live w/ a guy for six years. I wanted to be married in Vegas and we just never made it out there. He's gone now, but I still want to be married in Vegas someday. I've also been to Vegas twice since splitting up w/ him.

I love to travel by car. Road trips are the best! I've been every where in the lower 48 except the northeast and northwest.

I'm a very oppinionated person and try not to talk politics w/ people even though I enjoy doing it.

I love westerns! I don't care how many times I've seen True Grit or Fistfull of Dollars, I'll watch it again. Don't get any of those singing cowboys near me though. I don't go in for the cheesey ones. Sorry Roy & Gene, you're just not my thing. It's a good thing I don't have the western channel or that's prolly where the tv'd be most times.

I could prolly come up w/ some more stuff but I guess this is enough. I've got a pretty quiet life compared to some but I'm not unhappy.

Hey Kate,

Is mine here too? I don't see it either.

Thanks, Lynne

I saw it..... :D

My folks got divorced when I was 12. It bothers me more now than it did back then.

I'm a really shy person IRL. However, I have friends I made when we were

6 years old. Once I've made a true friend, it's for life.

I love to read or watch "who done it" movies, like Sherlock Holmes or Agatha Christy.

I've been a vegetarian for 5 years.

Confrontation (aggresion) scares the living daylights out of me.

My favourite band in Aerosmith. I know all the words to most of their songs by heart.

I love to be all alone at home on a working day. I through myself a "party for one".

When I was about 16, me and my two best friends watched Dirty Dancing (at the movies) about 6 or 7 times and I still watch it at least once a year!

I met my DH when I was 16. He was my first true BF and the first time we saw each other we knew we would get married. Seven years later it happened and we celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary this year. He's been a part of my life for a longer time than not. (if that makes sense).

I'm a Christian but also pay attention to Eastern Philosophies. I do believe that Love will conquer all.

I'm a shameless tree hugger. (or as my brother put it "bleeding heart" - lol).

I live in a country where all people were free to vote for the first time in

1994. On that day (allthough I am white) I felt free for the first time.

Princess Diana has been a role model to me since I was a little girl. I know exactly where I was and what I did the day the news broke of her passing.

I feel the closest to my Creator when I'm in nature surrounded by His creation.

I love driving at night time on dark country roads! It makes me feel safe.

I don't see myself as creative at all, but feel the most relaxed when I'm scrapping!

Judy, SA

Me, too! ;-)

Wow I cant believe I Didn't see this before!!

Okay hmm. Sometimes when I am extra sleepy, I make my 3 year old and 4 year old sit on my back as I lye on the couch and sleep. So if they get up or move from watching cartoons I know it...lol

I am the only person in the house who knows how to make formula.

I am a nerd.

I dropped out of 8th grade to take care of my mother after a hip grafting. I got my GED 2 years ago, and started college right after.

I am not married yet, Just engaged forever, but I still refer to Derek as my Hubby!

I think doing mental work outs is good enough.

I secretly drink out of the milk cartoon/juice carton/ANYTING...

There is probly more, but just having a brain fart during scrapping and needed to breathe!!

You forgot that your really stubborn when it comes to doctors!!!! *G* *poke*

Hmm, let's see,

I am the oldest, middle, and only child.

When I was 6, I saved my family from a house fire in the middle of the night.

When I was 7 my stepfather tried to drown me.

I saw a ghost when I was 9. Later learned the house was known to be haunted.

When I was 12 our vehicle was "followed" by a UFO for approximately 20 minutes; my aunt, uncle, and myself all saw it.

At 13 I lived for two months in a school bus travelling Mexico alone with my mother.

My (famous) ancestry includes Meriwether Lewis, John Alden, Albrecht Durer, Elizabeth I, Anne Boleyn, King Henry VIII.

I have swam in both the indoor and the outdoor pools of Hearst Castle.

I have spoken to Peter Falk on the telephone.

I backpacked Europe for two months in my 20s.

Am afraid of heights... didn't "do" the Eiffle Tower, stayed at the bottom... and regret it.

watched ALIVE (the plane crash/cannibalism true story) the night before flying back to the US from Holland.

Years later became flight phobic and didn't fly for 5 years.

Was celibate for 7.

Flew to Shanghai to fulfill lifelong dream as well as overcome phobia.... It worked.

Lived in Shanghai with my 9 year old son, boyfriend, and 13 month old baby for a month. Know only about 8 Chinese words.

Didn't see the Leaning Tower of Souzhou because my son was having a temper tantrum. Didn't see the Leaning Tower of Pisa because his father was having a temper tantrum.

I sent in a video for Survivor, twice.

Have been held at gunpoint twice.

Have had several out-of-body experiences since childhood and remember a past life.

Am a talented remote viewer but cannot predict the future.

Cannot visualize/picture things in my mind. Imagination is thought/words only BUT do dream pictures w/color when asleep.

But enough about me....

Me too! ( love the mystery books and movies)

I have missed so much with my hubby having surgery and being off work but....I want to answer this for ya.....(seeing I am a newbie I thought it would be easy)

I believe in life after death, reincarentations (my granddaughter is my mother born again), I believe in spirits (I prefer not to call em ghosts caz most I have met (several) doesnt like that term), and I believe that my husband and I have been together in all our lives (way to many de javu (sp) things happen to us). My mother who has been deceased for 20 years this year, comes to me in my dreams to calm me down when I have reached my breaking point. And I believe fully that the dead can talk to us, and choose several ways of doing so. I believe I have some pyshic ability, I have predicted on the money, 3 bad things that were going to happen to me almost to the day. The worse being my exhusband leaving me the way he did twice. Second time was enough, couldnt do it the third time.

My bestest friend died when I was 22 from leukemia and he was 24. He died of leukemia. I threated to beat his wife to death if I ever saw her after the funeral, and to this day I have never seen her again.

I had 6 friends die within 5 months. All in their 20s.

I am really shy, but I love meeting new people. I used to be a truck driver and it was difficult sometimes. But I made alot of friends thru the years I drove, and owned a trucking company.

I am married to a timber cutter, 2nd most dangerous job in the world. Read that in a logging magazine not to long ago. And man do I believe it, he is always coming in with bruises and new scrapes and cuts all the time. In fact, his surgery was from an accident on the job. :(

I am the oldest daughter for my mother, the middle daughter for my father. All my Dads daughters were born in Sept. In fact, my one sister and I are the same age for 3 days. LOL My mother had 5 kids, my father had 6.My parents split up before I was born and didnt know my Dad until I was 29. I grew up in a family of 15 kids, my mother remarried and my stepfather had 10 before us. There was an age difference of 36 years between my mother and stepfather and my youngest sister was born when my stepfather was 65.

I live in Hocking Hills in Ohio. This is probably the prettiest part of the state. I have been to most of the sites there but still have many to go thru. I live about 2 miles from where I grew up as a kid. And my husbands sister was my best friend in school. And I was totally in crush with his brother as we was growing up. I moved away when I was 12 and Mike and I met back up when I was 24. He and I were both married to other people. We went

13 more years before we met back up and got married. LOL, he tells me he was in love with me since I was 7 and never said anything thru all them 13 years because I was a wild child. LOL, can you imagine little ole me a wild child? Guess you would have to know me to know that is entirely wrong.

Hmmmm, thats enough about me for now. I cant think of anything else. I aint related to anyone famous and I have met way to many country music stars (past and present) to mention. I am a country music nut.....

Sharyn
