QOTD

WOW now this is an awesome idea and what a great way to get to know the other May'Babies! The one thing i've always wanted to do but haven't is to ride a motorcycle. There are of course other travel things i'd love to do but those are not feasible right now. I am going to pick up the motorcycle learners permit today and I'm going to rectify that right quick. Andi's going to be riding by summer time i'll bet. Hugs, ANDI

that is totally cool.. I have my motorcycle license and sold my bike when I adopted all my children.. I sure miss riding it on the weekends.. You know the kids are getting older now.. I think I will be looking into getting another bike.. I can do a little ride now and again. It is a great feeling having the wind blow threw your hair. I loved my bike.. I just didnt see any reason to keep it with all those small kids I had at home. You never know you could ride it cross country to our vegas trip in May..lol.. or not.

Great idea Carla, My gosh I don't know if I was ever afraid (maybe to self conscious) to do something...but there are things now that I want to do now that I feel so much more alive. Let's see...skydiving, rock climbing, running, going to the beach (which is 5 minutes away) would be some of them... I know before I was afraid of standing out in a crowd...now I want to be the center of attention!!!!

that is so cool.. I am sure a lot of us felt that way too.. I wanted more than anything to not be noticed but also wanted to be noticed for the person I was inside.. hard to do them both.. wow you are making me go deep here. Now I guess I dont care if I am noticed, but darn it.. i want people to know the person I am.. no judge me just because of the way i looked.. I think people give me more crediabiltiy now.. they dont look at me like I am dumb.. its scary to think that people judge the person you are on the way you look but it happens all the time..

This is so funny Carla - I was thinking of posting this exact same thing to get to know people better - great minds think alike ha ha.. Thanks for posting this. As I mentioned on a different post - I want to take dance lessons. I also want to go skiing again - haven't been since early 20's as I got too fat to feel comfortable. I want to wear a figure hugging dress - a sexy little number

whoot hoo.. hope hubby isn't the jealous type.. Sounds like fun taking some dance classes too.. way to go.

idea Carla!!! Well lets see I guess I would have to say I have always wanted to go parasailing out over the open ocean!!! I was always afraid it wouldn't hold me & I would be so embarassed!!! And then there is that little fear of sharks!! If we go to the beach this year I am gonna do it!!(Parasailing that is )I didn't start to gain weight until I was between 20-21 yrs old & was pretty adventurous/outdoorsy type before that!! I loved to go hiking in the mountains or mountain climbing(rapelling sp?) white water rafting is awesome(I want to do that this year too) Its been so long!! I even went frog gigging in waist deep river water one time!!!course they didn't tell me there was snakes in them there waters ! won't be doin that one again. I am sortof afraid of heights I don't mind rollercoasters etc but don't think I could jump out of a plane so that is out!! I guess the one fear I really need to overcome is motorcycles!!My hubby always wanted one & I have always said Maybe we can find someone who will take me to get me over that!! This is such a great idea!! If you get low on ideas maybe some of us can pm you with ideas...let us know!! ~Missy~

What on earth is frog gigging????????

Oh Ruth, hehe I guess its a southern thing!!(anyone else out there heard of this??) I was about 19 & dating this really country,outdoor,hunting,fishing kindof guy & a bunch of us guys & girls went frog gigging!! You go to the river at night with flashlights & these small pitchforks & get into the water which was about waist deep & go walking/hunting Frogs!! Anyways you get the idea!! We had been walking for about several miles when I noticed the guys had guns strapped to them I asked what are those for!! They just laughed & said for the snakes!! I like to have had a heartattack!! But we caught our frogs took them back to the camp site to cook the frogs legs & you know they really do taste like chicken!!! They are sold here in Alabama in most seafood restraunts!! If you ever get this way you can try them!! or not hehe!! ~Missy~

yeah.. i actually know what it is.. lol.. my folks are from north carolina and florida so you know we know what thats about.. just like most people have no idea how good boiled peanuts are.. lol... this could go on forever..
