My very first "tagging"!

http://justifiedjourney.blogspot.com/2009/07/oh-geeze-i-was-tagged-and-have-to-be.html

I always have wondered what those tags were all about and yay, now I've been tagged!

1. I didn't know how to cut and paste but thanks to my aunt Roberta, I have learned something new today!


2. I don't like coloring my hair at all. I just want it to "age graciously" (along with the rest of me!)


3. I am scared of dogs. But after adopting BuddyTheElf, I am learning to love dogs.

4. Even though I said I wouldn't, I did sneek peaks at Michael Jackson's memorial service.


5. I like doing laundry.


6. I cannot watch movies that I know have sad endings


7. I have a stash of Lindt milk chocolate that I keep stocked at all times.


8. I do not like to swim, even in the warm waters of the Caribbean.


9. I like, no love watching reality shows such as Rock of Love, Charm School and Big Brother!

10. My oldest son played high school football and I never, ever have figured out what it was all about.

11. I added this one, I haven't figured out how to link to others-yet!

okay I'll leave some answers to your questions.
1. I didn't know how to swim until graduation from jr. college when we had to pass a test or take a swim class-I took the class.
2. I don't like coloring my hair either and am contemplating letting it grow out and just highlight it. Tried gray but didn't like it.
3. I am scared of bears and don't ever want to camp or hike or live where they are around.
4. Even though I said I wouldn't, I watched all of the MJ memorial and quite enjoyed it.
5. I like sunbathing after water aerobics class.
6. I can not watch movies that are scary with violence in them.
7. I have a stash of sugar free chocolates and eat one a day without guilt.
8. I do not like to scrub showers. Yuck!
9. I like/love writing daily and have kept journals forever of my life. Also love to teach classes on just about anything to adults.
10. I'm still trying to figure out how to use photoshop to make borders around my photos.
11. I haven't figured out how to make an idex of posts on my blog...
Thanks for a fun exercise, will probably put this on my blog in a few days.

Are we supposed to do this?

1: I didn't know how to sculpt...but wiggled my fingers in some clay and have been amazed at what it produced...

2: Do I like coloring my hair??? Uhhh...no, but it does beat the alternative all to heck. I look about 40 miles the other side of "scruffy bag lady" when I don't.

3: I am scared of my tall, handsome, sunny, boys being lonely for too many more years.

4: Even though I said I wouldn't, I'm still working... WHAT am I thinking??

5: I like hanging out around the firepit with my kids, and the feel of wind in my hair.

6: I cannot watch movies because my hubby hogs the tv and remote.
No... seriously I can't stand violence in movies. Maketh me want to urp.

7: I have a stash of sweets around the house at all times. Lindt chocolates are also a favorite of mine... and cinnamon taffy... and chocolate covered caramels... and Pringles for when I need a little salt. oink!

8: I do not like to crawl out from under my fluffy down blanket on a chilly winter morn!!

9: I like... no love, walking around the house in my underwear when it's hot and I'm home alone.

10: I've lived on this planet for pushing 68 years and still haven't figured out why people do the mean things they do to each other. I can not understand unkindness and cruelty!

okey dokey... that's it.

Now, you know more about a total stranger than you asked to know, huh? I had fun.

Kay said...

At least you KNOW how to swim. I don't. I don't color my hair either, just because I'd never keep up with it. Uh... you like doing laundry? Um, I could use your help at my house. :-)

Cheryl said...

Lin: I enjoyed learning more about you!

mom/caryn: Some of your answers had me smiling broadly! Loved them.

Kay: I would be more than happy to come to your home and do your laundry :)

Hi Cheryl,

Do you mean linking to other sites from your blog? If so, see the binoculars at the top of your new blog post that you're creating? Say you want to creat a link HERE. You drag your cursor across the word "HERE," open a new browser window (for me, that's a Safari window, so I go to "File" and select "New Window." Find the site on the web that you want to link to. Copy the web address, go back to the post you're creating, select the "binoculars" at the top of your post, paste in the web address, and voila! It's fast and easy. And I enjoyed reading your list.

Cheryl said...

Oh thank you Aunt Jean! I am learning, albeit verrrryyyy slowly.

Heather said...

Like your new header, Cheryl. And, smart girl on hiding the Lindt chocolate. I've been known to have a stash or two. Somehow, Steve always finds it, though!

Heather: Thanks, I was surprised to read about my "new header" in your comment, Ashton just told me she designed it herself last night! I will be posting soon about how it came to be...and how fortunate I am that Mark does not like the same kind of chocolate that I do!! But I still keep it stashed...you never know...
