Alright, already!!

Okay, so Diane tagged me. Apparently, I've been too slow to respond because now she has had to reminded me that she tagged me. You have to understand, Diane, I'm old and slow. Besides, I'd already blogged on Tuesday, and I needed to do my Wednesday Words of Wisdom blog so I was sort of saving the 'tag' blog for Thursday, but if you're going to get pushy about it......here goes....

The 3 things tag:

3 current goals:
1) Make Diane happy by responding to her 'tag' (I guess I should really be happy about it since I'm too old to play real tag anymore..I can't even outrun the 3 year old at my house! Of course, it could have something to do with the terrible accident I had at my brother's house in February where I fell down his stupid stairs and rolled my ankle! At least I can still play 'blog tag'!)
2) Transfer responsibility for chores/homework to my children (where it belongs!!) I'm tired of asking about chores/homework. There are certain things that you know you need to do and you should do them without your mother reminding you!!
3) Keep getting up when life knocks me down. It would be so easy to stay down, and sometimes it's hard to get back up.


3 current obsessions:
1) Blogging!!
2) NCIS (It's been months since I discovered it, and I still can't get enough!)
3) Blogging.


3 fears:
1) That I will never have an empty nest. At least 5 out of the 9 people currently living in my house should be out on their own. (I love you all, but you know it's true!)
2) spiders!! I hate them, they have way to many legs and when they look at me like that it gives me the chills!3) That I will someday NOT get up when life knocks me down.

3 random facts:
1) I used to date Diane's brother, Scott, when we were in high school.
2) I once got my finger stuck in a custom steering wheel and had to go to the emergency room to have it removed. (I am NOT kidding and would be glad to tell you the whole story if you buy me lunch!)
3) I secretly hope that I will never have an empty nest. (It would be so boring!)

So, there you go, Diane, I hope you're happy now. I may have exceeded my blog quota for the week by blogging twice in one day, but at least I'm not 'it' anymore.

I hereby tag: Jenna, Cherie, and Marcie (but I don't think she'll play--surprise me, Marcie, play tag with me!)

I think I remember the steering wheel story.
Your theme song could be, "I get knocked down, but I get up again, no their never gonna keep me down!"
Thanks for playing.

Liz, please forgive me. It is nice of you to tag me, but I have already tagged myself with a DO IT list! I sure liked reading your list though. You rock! And I am not just saying that because you are a grandmother!

I want to hear the finger story, but I can't buy you lunch this far away.....
