Cathy tagged me for this. Here are the rules:
1. List these rules on your blog.
2. Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog.
1.) Cathy said: "I have had the smallpox vaccination 3 times and it would never form a scab and so I don't have a smallpox vaccination scar. I don't know anyone else my age who does not have a scar from this." Guess what! I, also, don't have a scar from that vaccination! My little sister, who got her vaccination at the same time, does...and all my friends of my age. I always think of it because in the Outlander books by Diana Gabaldon that's how one sassenach (outlander) can tell another...by the scar. If I get suddenly transported back in time, I'm gonna be in a world of hurt!
2.) I have a perfect attendance pin for five years in Sunday School. The pin itself looks like this (but it says "Episcopal," not "Lutheran" and it has a bunch of bars that hang from it for each year. Here's a picture of some with 13 and 14 years perfect attendance; I certainly don't have that! And the reason I do have it is, my mom was the Sunday School superintendent those years, so we never missed.
The source for the picture has a cool article: see it here, scroll down to "Mystery."
3.) I have only ever worked in one field: International Education. For 21 years now. I thought I was going to be an English professor, but I'm really glad I found this instead.
4.) My parents are still married to each other (and still living, and way cool!). They were both married one time before, and I have a half-brother and half-sister from each of those prior marriages. So, six of us in total. Behaviorally, I'm very much like an oldest child.
5.) I never liked dogs until we got our dogs. Now I am a dog maniac.
6.) I once got engaged at Texas Aggie Bonfire..with a little help from some beers. We decided later that that wasn't the best idea...And the Aggie Bonfire no longer happens, because of the terrible accident in 1999.
7.) My husband thinks my toes are very funny looking because, when I am not wearing shoes, they spread out. He says they don't like each other. I say, they are "reclining in the position of free men."
