I've been tagged by JNLANG Tagged Rules:
1).The player starts with 8 random facts about herself.
2).The person who is tagged must post on her own blog her answers and post the rules first.
3).Then the player must pick 8 people and tag them.  Also leave them a note on Message that lets them know that you tagged them.  You can write who you tagged on your blog also!
Okay, here's my eight things!
1.  I love to quilt.  I started when I was 19 and grew to love it.  I really love to hand piece and hand quilt, but I would never get much done that way.  Now, I machine piece and hand quilt, sometimes I machine quilt but not often.  I love to relax in front of the tv, or watch the kids play outside and give my hands something useful to do.  Of course, I don't get many done, but I still enjoy it.
2.  I love genealogy research.  I'm hoping to go far enough back to determine if my family was involved in the American Revolution and get involved in DAR.  I think that would be soooo cool!  Supposedly, on one side we're related to Davey Crockett, but we'll see.  I"m in the 1850s now.
3.  I love to sit and relax outside in a chair and watch the kids play.  Its my quiet time.  Not too many interruptions.  Its very peaceful listening to the kids. watching the birds, etc.
4.  I have met people from every continent (well, except Antartica-that doesn't really count).
5.  I love to scrapbook.  We enjoy looking through the pages and remembering all our old friends and places that we lived. 
6.  I love to bake.  My neighbors call me Betty Crocker because none of them bake.  I actually haven't done much since we returned from the states.  I'm trying to correct that though.
7.  I hate to be disorganized.  I hate having piles of things to look at all over the house.  I don't mind messy, because we can pick that up everyday, its the disorganization that drives me mad.   I have problems focusing on my kids school work when I have disorganization around me.  So, I spent alot of this summer straightening out and throwing away!!
8.  I need more sleep!!  I never seem to go to bed early enough.  I read, work on the computer, whatever to pass some evening time away and end up staying up too late.  With a new baby coming, I really need to adjust that!!

And I've enjoyed visiting you! I wish we could have shared a cup o'coffee together too!

Sounds like you are gonna be one busy, tired momma when your new baby comes. When is that, btw? I'll be praying for you and your family throughout this school year.

Have a great weekend!
