Homeschool Memoirs #10: 10 Timely Facts
leafed in Homeschool Memoirs
The time will be changing again. I think on Sunday but not sure. Anyhow this is our 10th Homeschool Memoirs so this week it’s going to be about 10 timely facts about you! Write 10 interesting, crazy, weird, fun facts about you! Include facts about you as a woman, a wife, a mommy, a homeschooler, a homekeeper, a taxi-driver, a cook, etc .
Sorry about last week :( , the week got overwhelming and some things went by the wayside, but I must keep priorities straight.
At least 10 facts about me, how do you come up with interesting facts for an ordinary person.....
1~ I am a mutt of sorts, I am part French, German, Indian, and Irish American.
2~ I love winter, it is my favorite seasn, that could be linked to my next fact.
3~ I hate thunder and lightening, that doesn't really happen in winter ;)
4~ If I ever went back to school it would be to become a chef, I love to cook and bake and am always trying to come up with new ideas.
5~ I love the smell of burning candles, not flowery ones, but fruity, and others. I just found one called pumpkin and vanilla, really yummy! I like one called white chocolate too.
6~ I have five beautiful girls an one baby in heaven waiting for me. That may be the only "saved" person in my family at this point to great me.
7~ My parents divorced when I was 12, my mothers sister ended up taking me in and raising me at 15. It was my Aunt who taught me to be a good house keeper and cook.
8~ I have an interesting family, 1 half brother in New York, 1 step brother in halifax and 1 biological brother in The N.W.T. And 1 biological sister in Halifax.
9~ I love Tea!!!! I love the smell of coffee but can't stand the taste. But tea, ooohhh yummy!
10~ I love to learn new things, I am now learning to play piano and crochet.
11~ I almost ruined my husband proposal, I knew he had the ring ( he made try it on to see if it fit). As we were walking along the shore, I told him it was too bad he hadn't brought the ring. It would have been a great place to propose. He had the ring in his pocket.
12~ there is nothing in this world as nice as a hot bubble bath with a good book!
13~ I have been married for 15 years (that is why I am doing 15). When I first met my hubby he wouldn't go out with me because I was lost. He didn't tell me that until after though. He didn't want me to get saved just to go out with him.
14~ This is our 7th year of homeschooling, we had a three year break between year four and five though.
15~ I am a gift person, I love to get and give little unexpected gifts. Just to know someone is thinking of me or to let them know I was tinking of them. It means alot to me.

I enjoyed reading your facts...I don't think you are ordinary at all. :) I liked the story about your husband's proposal...I always spoil people's surprises by figuring things out or thinking things up first lol. Have a blessed week. Julie http://funinthesunmom.blogspot.com

Such great facts for an ordinary person!! (perhaps you are a bit extraordinary) ;) I hear you on the receiving gifts. It isn't about the size or expense...just a little something speaks volumes!

Nice to meet you! Thanks for stopping by my blog. I'm just outside of Fredericton, N.B. :D If you ever visit Kings Landing, you're only three minutes away from our house!

That is great that you managed to come up with 15, I struggled to get the 10. To me last week's assignment was easier.
I am enjoying getting to know fellow homeschoolers through these memoirs.

Thank you for praying for my mom. I really appreciate that.
Also, great list!! I also love tea, although my hubby wishes that I drank coffee (he's been asking me to drink coffee with him for years. He doesn't think tea's "good enough" to drink coffee with!!!). But, I'll pretend it's coffee and we'll still drink our hot beverages together.
