bluekarin Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 The idea is to write 25 random things about yourself. It can be anything. 1. I love other people’s birthdays more than my own 2. I love baking 3. I hate being lonely 4. I am planning on being a better gardener this year 5. I’m happy on my own 6. I wish I tried harder at school 7.

I am never happy with where the furniture is in a room and have to move it around often, much the OH despair 19. When I sneeze I do it through my mouth as I don’t want my ears to pop 20. I hate it when the kids get too close to the edge of high places 21. I wish I was happier about myself when I was younger – actually, I wasn’t that bad then 22. I wish I knew what I wanted to do when I grow up 23. I wish my parents would pop in for a cuppa like they do at my sisters 24. I really want to see the Northern Lights 25.

Snowy Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 1 I learnt to play clarinet 8 years ago and discovered I love playing to an audience. 2 I was bitten on my right eye by the family dog when I was 2 years old. 3 I love the colours fuchsia and burgundy, but since I went blonde they don't suit me anymore. 4 I live in jeans and jumpers, never wear makeup and am ?? stone overweight, but am far happier than when I was thin, wore power suits and makeup and drove a sports car! 5 When my Dad tells me I ought to make an effort occasionally, I just laugh at him and pat him on the head 6 My Mum died 10 years ago and I feel guilty that I am happier now with who I am than I was when she was alive and I tried to live to please her. 7 I am a born again Christian, but only talk about it if I'm asked! 8 I love horses, and started riding aged 4, but now haven't ridden for 7 years. 9 I've just discovered a love of heavy rock music. 10 I'm useless at sports but am a very good swimmer and an even better diver. 11 I can't sing for toffee, but it doesn't stop me trying! 12 I designed and made tailored dresses for my dolls when I was 8, and used to make all my own clothes. 13 I love the variety of my job - I've worked in banks, hospitals (general and psychiatric), prisons, warehouses, factories (making crisps, tin cans, cars, fabric and chocolate), garden centres, fire stations, ambulance stations, call centres and power stations. Next week I'm going to work in the weetabix factory! 14 I'm a speed junkie - I love white knuckle rides and have been driven round a race track by a racing driver. 15 I am incapable of going to bed early, or even on time. 16 I am very tolerant and slow to anger, but when I do get angry, I like to smash things. 17 I hated school and left at 16 to get a job and fund my horse. 18 I am incapable of sitting doing nothing. 19 My brother and his family emigrated to Canada 2 years ago and I really, really miss them 20 I have 3 sons, 3 step children and 6 step grandchildren. 21 I always wanted 3 children but thought I'd become infertile after my first. I decided I wouldn't give up trying until I was 40. My 3rd son was born 2 months before my 40th birthday. 22 I went to university and got a degree when I was 34. 23 I'd love to get a PhD and become a Doctor of Nursing. 24 I only went into nursing because my Mum had a nursing home and wanted me to partner her in business. A year before I qualified she sold it and bought a restaurant. 25 I discovered I am a really bad liar, so I don't even try now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 1) I adore my children more than I can ever describe 2) But there are times that they drive me to distraction! 3) After 23 years married I can still honestly say that I love my hubby as much as ever 4) Codeine makes me hallucinate.....it's very scary! 5) I don't have a sweet tooth so am really not bothered by chocolate and cakes etc 6) But I have been known to sit and eat a family sized bag of crisps all on my own 7) I used to do a lot of orienteering. I really wish that I could swim better, love swimming but aware that my technique is embarrassingly awful. 9) I dislike social situations, never feel at ease when faced with a roomful of people. 10) I am very loyal 11) I hate injustice 12) I always try to be fair and even and to see both sides of any story.....this sometimes means that I sit on the fence too much 13) I love reading, and will read almost anything. 14) I love foraging for "free food" 15) I used to be a midwife, and occasionally wish that I could go back to it. 16) Red wine brings me out in a rash 17) So I drink white wine instead 18) I own the most gorgeous goat with the floppiest, silkiest ears you ever did see. 19) I love the beach, somehow I feel so relaxed and happy when I'm beside the sea 20) I'm a summer girl, can't get enough of it, the hotter and the sunnier the better....bring it on! 21) I have never yet been able to sleep on an aircraft 22) Whenever possible I try to ignore a full, clean dishwasher in the hopes that someone else will get there first and empty it for me 23) But that tactic rarely works for me 24) One of my patients scares me, and her huge, jumpy, growly Rottweilers scare me more 25) Life is really, really good for me right now, I feel happier, more settled and more confident that I have done for years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
