Seven things

Lovely special Angela of three buttons has given me a Kreative Blogger award, but so did superstar wonder woman Lexi about two weeks ago, and so I'm feeling both super lucky and a little awkward as well. Thank you both lovely ladies, I'm quite honoured and as part of the award you are asked to share seven things about me. So here we go, some super tantilising facts about me.

1. When I was about 3 I had conjunctivitis. One time it was so bad I woke up and was blinded by it and walked screaming down the corridor to mum and dad. ON my way I split my head open on a corner and still have the scar in the centre of my head, i love this scar it's a nice scar and I hope it never goes away.

2. I'm a really good hugger.

3.I have quite an addictive personality- cigarettes, diet coke, gum etc. My latest new addicition is to Chewy Quickeze, especially the peppermint flavour, but now there's also orange and strawberry - not flavours for all the time, but nice to vary a bit. I think I like to convince myself I have indigestion quite a lot, just so I can have some. ( I'm not sure this is entirely good for me)

4. I used to be absolutely terrified of swimming, in primary school when it was swimming day I used to become so sick and come down with terrible gastro. I wasn't faking it, I was that scared I made myself sick. One day the teachers dragged me a long and somehow persuaded me to get in the pool. I didn't want to get out. I loved it so much . I went on to the highest level and am a qualified lifesaver. I think mum probably wanted to kick me.

5. I love Pajama bottoms, but not a big fan of Pj tops, they annoy me I'm not sure why. i prefer a tshirt or spencer or a singlet.

6. I have never dyed my hair. I'm also scared of the hairdresser. I can't remember the last time I went to the hairdresser, I think it was four years ago. My hair is very long, how long I wouldn't know, but last time I checked it was down to my hip bone.

7. I cry quite easily. I cry when I'm really happy, or moved, I cry when I'm sad, hurt and fragile, I cry at movies and tv shows- even the most stupid ones, the football especially the Grand Final even if I hate the losing side, I cry at the airport seeing strangers both part and meet and are so happy to see each other. It can be quite dehydrating.

Now I would like to pass this award on to Foxslane, dandelion, the doily, ric rac, melbourne epicure, handmaderomance and punkysmamma

What great little tidbits all about you. I completely agree with the pj thing - bottoms and a t-shirt are so much more comfy... and I have to chuckle about the quickeze. I don't think I've ever tried them (luckily as they must be delicious).I usually go for the mylanta roll tabs. Not sure how healthy they are long term..hee hee

thanks Jess!
I love your little bits of info, so many things in common, I believe I am a good hugger aswell (so I think)
I have an addictive personality aswell so maybe that's why I rule out alot of things to consume...who knows, I may become addicted to cupcakes..:)
and I cry at the silliest things aswell, but i'd rather that than not showing any emotion at all.

BIG bear hug to you Jess, thanks for thinking of me

Thanks so much for the award Miss Jess!
Seven really interesting facts. When I was about 9 I shop lifted what I thought was a packet of Life Savers that turned out to be Quick eaze. I was devastated and I've hated those chalky things since then. XX

I wholeheartedly agree about the PJ top. I hate those tops. I always wear a t-shirt or singlet.

So many lovely things to share, you are a very special lady Jess. Thank you for sharing some of who you are.

Your swimming story made me laugh about how much you turned into a water lover in the end :)
