Premio Meme Award


Liss at A Memory Forever gave me the Premio Meme Award - Thanks so much Liss - Your meme was great. The rules are list 7 facts about myself and pass it on to 7 people. That's pretty simple...

7 Things

1. I met my husband when we were 12 in Junior High and he sent another little boy to the front of the bus to ask me to sit at the back of the bus with him - I declined...

2. I have an extremely low tolerance for alcohol - generally I fall asleep at the second glass of wine...

3. I learned to knit when I was 8 - my sister and I found an old black trunk that belonged to our Great Grandmother - inside were some quilt scraps and a pair of bakelite knitting needles (size 5 - I still have them) and some thin twisted navy and white crochet thread - and a book with instructions (I still have that too) - I insisted on learning to knit but couldn't quite manage it from the pictures so my Mom (who was taught to knit by a visiting missionary) and my Nanny (whom I never saw knit - she did crochet 'though) taught me to knit - and I've been hooked ever since...

4. My favorite movie of all time is probably Groundhog Day - I watch it every year (much to the Man's dismay) - it's so hopeful - I'd love it if we all just figured it out and got it right...

5. I have strange calouses on both my hands between my index finger and my middle finger - because I always stretch the index finger back over my hand - I don't know why I do this...

6. I'm a multi-tasker - I do things like knit and read at the same time or even open a book on the counter and read while I knead the bread...

7. Once for a psychology class - we tried to go an entire day without saying the words 'I' or 'me' - it was extremely difficult...

That was fun! Now let's pass this on:

  1. Wow your hair is growing already.

    Who said you were boring. That is a great list. I can’t multi task when I knit , I need as much concentration as I can muster to avoid holes where they shouldn’t be. As a kid I loved finger knitting but I forget how it’s done now.
    I have a similar tolerance for alcohol too. I hardly ever drink so it easy to get very happy very quickly.
