We are going sky diving. what can I say~ Thank you Lord, and thank you Dr. Carlin!

These were very few and far between. I do remember when I was 7 yrs. old, shortly before my dad died, he took my 2 brothers and I up to the park to ride the horses. He didn't tell us where we were going, it was a nice surprise.
3. Do you know anyone famous?
I briefly got to know Gilda Radnor, from the original S.N.L. She spent two weeks at our jr. high school looking for material to use in her comedy skits. She told me she had the perfect skit she was going to do about me~yes me, and I would know it when I saw it. Needless to say it wasn't very flattering.

I've always wanted to learn to play the piano, guitar and the sax.

That I am very shy. When I get around people I don't know well, I get so nervous I kind of black out. I start talking a lot with out really thinking about what I'm saying and often don't remember the conversation. I have been trying hard to keep myself calm in situations like this, and am getting a little better at it.

1. Plans for the summer - hoping my family comes for a visit. I moved up here from Virginia 2 1/2 years ago, and my parents have only been here once. I'm going down there the end of July (God help me but it's hotter than hell then) for a professional development conference and vacation. Other than that, I'm going to hang out by the river in my back yard and try not to let the skeeters devour me!
2. Fondest childhood memories - holidays. My extended family, uncles, aunts, cousins, gathered for every major holiday (and some minor ones) when I was a kid. My favorite memory was my sister, her best friend, and my cousins wife all seated on my piano bench when it collapsed while singing Silent Night one Christmas Eve. It was about as far from silent as you can get.
3. Do I know anybody famous? I had a great-uncle who was ranked as one of the greatest pro golfers of all time - Sam Snead was his name. He loved a good dirty joke. So did my grandmother, actually.
4. Musical instrument - I played piano for many years, but a vision ailment made it difficult for me to read music and I gave it up. A friend of mine let me play his electronic drums at his New Year's Eve party. It was a blast!
5. Little known fact about me - there aren't any. I can keep anyone's secrets but my own!
Be safe all!
