I guess this 25 list thing got started on Facebook, which is where I first encountered it. I put off doing it for some time, but kept getting tagged by people, so started thinking about which 25 things I would include. So, today I finally did it. It's on my Facebook page, but you can read it here without joining or being obligated. On the other hand, it's kind of interesting--the process, that it. If you try it, let me know...Oh, and by the way, for all you fellow perfectionists, you need to know that you WILL think of something else right after you post your list. Murphy's Law...
25 things going around right now
Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.
(To do this, go to “notes” under tabs on your profile page, paste these instructions in the body of the note, type your 25 random things, tag 25 people (in the right hand corner of the app) then click publish.
1. I am an avid bird-watcher.
2. I love to cook.
3. I've read all the novels of Charles Williams and Virginia Woolf several times.
4. My favorite place in all the world is the porch of the Island Inn on Monhegan Island.
5. I spent the first 14 summers of my life in a Victorian cottage in Monteagle, TN.
6. I am a writer.
7. I talk to puppets. And they talk back. Really...
8. I once took 20 pounds of lima beans to a workshop so I could finish shelling them.
9. I've never broken a bone in my body, if you don't count my little toe. ('Cause they don't fix those--they just say "too bad.")
10. I've worked in a jewelry store, at a publishing house, two universities, and for the people who make Super Bubble Gum. (No, I did not twist the wrappers.)
11. I've taught approximately 4,000 children, including Mindy, Meg, and Melinda.
12. I am a poet.
13. I stored a Great Horned Owl in my freezer. (It was already dead. Promise.)
14. I'm a SoulCollage® facilitator.
15. I quit piano lessons because my fingers kept locking up.
16. I met my husband playing Baroque recorders in a quartet.
17. I was on the Parmer Elementary School Girls' All-Tournament Basketball team.
18. If you look for me in early October, you'll find me at the National Storytelling Festival, listening.
19. My best friend and I have known each other for 60 years.
20. I quit smoking during Intermission of La Traviata in 1971.
21. I dream about bears.
22. I've read Women Who Run with the Wolves three times. (I know, I need to get busy. I'm behind.)
23. I used to count clipped coupons at a bank, and therefore recognize most of the utility and school districts in the state of Mississippi.
24. I've never met a vegetable I didn't like.
25. I still have my mother's last pair of glasses, and she died almost 10 years ago.
