Amy tagged me.....6 random things about me!

Alright Amy.....This is gonna be hard, but because you specifically tagged me, I will give it my best try! Amy was "tagged" by a fellow blogger/friend to list 6 things about herself that others might not know about her, at the end, she "tagged" me to do the same thing! So I am going to attempt to complete this list! So here's my attempt....

When I was an infant, I had an undeveloped esophagus which caused me to turn purple from attacks I would have due to this condition. One story that stands out in my mind about this, is a time that my grandmother was caring for me and I had an attack and turned all different shades of purple and she had all sorts of scary fears racing through her, but came to admire my mom for what she was dealing with on a daily basis and wondered how she remained so calm.

I used to have rats as pets. Yes, I said RATS!! I loved them, even though I figured out along the way that I was allergic to them....when their paws touched my skin I would break out in itchy red hives. One rat I had died because of a fire that happened in my bedroom when I was in 7th grade, in which I lost everything!! (hey, maybe that could go as one of the six things on this list....maybe?)

So some of you know this.....but when I go shopping, I have to pick whatever item I am buying from the very back of the shelf....it doesn't matter if it's food, a toy, toilet paper...it just doesn't matter, I will pull the objects in front off so I can get the back one and then restock the shelf. It makes things very complicated and I get teased for it, but I must say that I have caused others that have shopped with me to form the same habit. Seriously, it's a problem, ask anyone that has been with me, even my poor kids!!

O.K.....so not a proud fact, but another one none the less. I didn't actually graduate on my graduation day....nor have I ever seen my diploma after getting a verbal that I had completed summer school after my senior year and I would be getting my diploma to show for it in the mail. I never got it, nor did I ever look into where it was. One of those things I still wonder about, it hasn't seemed to keep me back in any way though!

I have a mole on the inside upper eyelid on my right eye, in the corner by my nose! Random oh so random, I know!!! Not sure why it's there, other than thats the way God made me!

I didn't get baptised as an infant. I actually got baptised when I was 22 with my infant daughter, Kelsey! It was a very memorable experience, one I will cherish for the rest of my life!!

Alright, so I did it! I feel a little vulnerable, but thats o.k. I am who I am and proud to be a child of God!! Thanks, I think, Amy, for challenging me a bit here with this post! Since I have a limited amount of "fellow" bloggers the only person I am going to tag is SHANNON! Have at it sista!
