I've never been tagged before or done one of the meme things (which I don't quite get how to pronounce), so I thought I'd give it a try.   Warning, though:  I'm really a geek, so this could get ugly and boring. Feel free to stop reading. [Note:  this is my second time writing this.  The first time, I did a search for something and forgot to save what I'd typed so ---grrr---- it all went away.  I'm hoping this second time around I'll think of more interesting things]

1.  On our first or second date, I told DH that I wanted to have 3 children some day, all boys.  Amazingly, that didn't scare him off, and he came back for a second date.

2.  Speaking of our first date, not only did I go out with DH on the first date, but also his two sisters!   They were driving back home for Christmas and were stopping through the town DH was staying in, so after our dinner-date, DH and I met them at a Ground Round for a beer.  His sisters were a blast and I loved the stories about all of them growing up.  I don't recall doing much talking during that part of our date, but I sure did laugh.

3.  In my B.K. life (before kids), I was a speech language pathologist.  I loved working in hospitals and out-patient.  My favorite things to do were videofluoroscopic  (videotaped moving xrays) swallow evaluations (for dysphagia, disorders of the swallowing mechanisms) and language testing (I love administering tests and analyzing the data) [See, I told you I was a geek.]

4.  DH and I got married in Purgatory. Really, I kid you not.

I feel I'm getting desperate here.....

5.  Since graduting from high school, I've never lived in any one home longer than 3 years (no, I'm not in the witness protection program, and we're not military).

6.  I'm still friends with Julia, my best friend from 3rd grade!

7.  I was an undergraduate history major, but have learned more history in homeschooling than I did at my alma mater (which is a top ranking U.S. News & World Report undergraduate program year after year).

Phew, I did it, and I spared you the boring facts of my adolescences.  Now, if you've read this, you are IT, and consider yourself tagged.
