Just kidding! Actually, I've been tagged by babean with the infamous, "8 Things About You" tag. There are several different ways to approach this - one could take the humorous approach, the serious, the boring (not hard to do!) or the highly personal. Hmmm ... I'll let you know which approach I take when I'm done writing. Without further delay, here goes ...
1. When I was very small, I always prayed for peace on earth. This was during the Vietnam conflict and I know it troubled my little mind. I didn't yet know Jesus, back then. But I prayed to God.
2. In my early 20's, I answered the phone twice a week in the evening for a Christian radio station (KYMS in Orange County, CA). I loved it, became good friends with a couple of deejays and led a young man to Christ over the phone one night - obviously the highlight of my time there!
3. I have hazel eyes.
4. This is getting tough. I've already put a lot of me on the page here at this blog (I've been here over a year, after all!) Is there anything new that would be interesting? Umm ... I have lived with IBS my entire life (look it up if you feel the need). Gosh, that's not interesting, that's depressing!
5. My husband proposed to me outside of the AAA office in Long Beach, CA, which was down the street from the apartment I shared with two roommates. As there was no privacy in my apartment, we used to walk down the street and sit on the low brick wall in front of the building. No, he didn't kneel down on one knee! And, sadly, the building is no longer there.
6. I had my own typesetting business in CA before moving to OR in 1991. It was called (drum roll, please), "Type By Kathryn". O.k., now you know my birth name. Business was good. The name was so-so.
7. I have six toes on one foot - fooled you! My sister and her husband used to tease me unmercifully about my size 10 feet (with the usual amount of toes). One Christmas, they gave me a wooden plant stand in a large box. They told me it was a pair of shoes.
8. And finally ... God allowed me to lead both my parents to the Lord, as well as my two sons. Nothing else I've ever done or could ever do would top that - with the exception of seeing my young daughter accept Christ as her Saviour.
A mixed bag of info. Now, I get to tag some of you! If your real name has an "M" or a "V" in it, consider yourself tagged! Let me know if you answer the tag, I'd love to read it. |
