Nov. 14, 2007 - Children Are Humbling- A Tag
Posted in Silly

I was tagged by Pretzel Family and couldn't think of a thing that could be considered "weird" about myself.

I mean, honestly, I'm so not issue-ridden.
I'm the epitome of sane.
I'm not weird.
So how could I come up with one thing about me that is weird?
And seven? No way! Not possible.
So I asked my ever-so-darling and precious daughters to help.

They're just too helpful. Really.

From the 11-yr old I get this:

1. "You look like a sheepdog because of your hair."
2. "You really love peach-smelling stuff."
3. "You wear shorts that are so holey that anyone else would throw them away."
4. "You really like coffee. You REALLY like coffee. You crave coffee."
5. "When you're thinking intently, you mess with your hair."
6. "You get grossed out really easily."
7. "You Judo-flip me."

And from the 18-yr-old:

(Hey, Mom... This kind of reminds me of the seven deadly sins for some reason... *grins*
Or maybe what's-his-name's "Dirty Laundry"! Or maybe "The more we share, the more we care!" Or Eminem's "Cleaning Out My Closet"?) 

My crazy mom...

1. Uses her knowledge of psychology to torment her poor, innocent, darling children
2. Has great fashion sense (though she doesn't necessarily incorporate it in her own life...) and a great sense of humor (but doesn't always tell jokes right...)
3. Has really, really expressive hands and can make the funniest faces
4. Is a coffee, chocolate, and computer addict (The Three C's!)
5. Likes Winnie the Pooh and 80's rock (so cool in a mom!)
6. Normally still sits like a teenager with her legs folded underneath
7. Is really fun, and is good with kids (of any age, from 1-101!)
8. (for one to grow on...)
Is the Google Queen!!!
(Also: I would have listed her appreciation of belching abilities, but you guys probably already know that from one of her previous posts... So you understand why I neglected divulging that little tidbit. But just in case you haven't read that particular entry, she does!)

And is just me or did the 18-yr old come up with like, 20?

And I thought they'd have a hard time coming up with seven between them...

But I'm NOT weird, I tell ya!

So I'm passing this on to these 7 people:
1. Arby's Archives
2. Chris
3. Prodoceo
4. LizzieBee
5. SockMonkey
6. KellieAnn
7. Earthling
8. And anyone who reads this who feels inclined to add to the honesty madness.

The fine print rules are as follows:
Link to the person that tagged you, and post the rules on your blog.
Share 7 random and/or weird facts about yourself.
Tag 7 random people at the end of your post, and include links to their blogs.
Let each person know that they’ve been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

Well, Crossview, I think I must respectfully decline this time. Between preparing for a trip, doing mountains of laundry, squeezing in some homeschooling here and there, getting my kids to and from where they need to be, and trying to think of a few more places to hide that stupid, hateful wreath, I just don't think I could get it done in a timely manner. And, like you said, I think it's been established that I'm weird enough without listing 7 supporting reasons (hey...kind of like a bibliography!). By all means, ask Debbles for me. I'm sure she could come up with 7 for me...or 77...or 777.

I loved reading your lists! What a good take on the tag to ask your kids. I would be too scared to do that for what they might reveal, but it's an excellent idea. You sound like such a fun person....ever think of moving to TN?!

I don't think I could ask Blondie 7 weird things about myself. It was brave of you - or was it just delegating an assignment?

Hmmm, if that's what your kids think is weird, I wouldn't want to know what they thought of me!
