I have been tagged twice now to do the 8 things about myself!! I have been so busy with working and now I am down here on the bed with a swollen right knee!! Since I am not moving much i figured that maybe i could come up with 8 whole things about myself!! I know there are rules to this and that I am to pick more people but this chick is not going to do that this time. I know that ya'll are so busy with your regular daily lives that i will just post my own and go from there. Here is the list that i thought about:

  1. I grew up in the country where my dad was a tenant farmer. He grew soy beans and corn.
  2. I loved roller skating, playing the accordion, going to my grandmothers house, riding bicycles, chasing the boys and just being carefree
  3. I have one brother that is 3 ½ years younger than me. He lives in Arizona now.
  4. I met my husband at 14; started dating him at 16 and married him at 18.
  5. I had my first son when I was a mere 19…could not even cook yet
  6. I had all my children before the age of 28…We have 1 boy and 2 daughters.
  7. We have been blessed with 7 grandchildren…2 boys and 5 girls!!
  8. I was born in Illinois and lived there for 56 years then moved here to Georgia. We have lived here almost 7 years now.
Now that you know a little bit more about me I am sure everyone is thrilled!!

I worked this morning until 11:00 then my boss came in and told me that I could go home. I was really glad because this knee has been giving me a lot of trouble. Last night the pain was so bad that I felt sick to my stomach!! I have been to the doctor and they are SUPPOSED to be getting me an appt with an orthopedist!! I called back today and hopefully someone will make an appt for me!! I can only HOPE at this point!! I am so mad at myself!! I hate to be down!!

We have our new CURVES SMART starting up soon and here I am down and cannot exercise!! What a BUMMER!!

Hello Dear Sandy.....

I am so sorry to read that you have a painful knee, I do hope you can get to see an orthopaedic very soon.... so here’s wishing you a speedy recovery that will enable you to get back to Curves Smart quickly.

I enjoyed reading the 8 ‘getting to know you better things’. What a long and precious relationship you have had with your dear husband.
