Seven Things

Sweet Anastasia of the beautiful blog Anastasia Drawing and Dreaming recently tagged me to share seven things about myself.


I'm not sure how many random facts my readers want to know about me, but here are seven of them, he he.
1. I occasionally break out in song, musical/opera style, when conversing with people.  But only usually those with whom I feel really comfortable.
2. I loooove dance music, the kind of music which has a strong beat that I can bop to while working on housework or anything boring (like my taxes).
3. I have a special place in my heart for special needs individuals, especially children.   I am not sure why, maybe it's because I believe that God made each of us and that we are all worth something because of that.  Or it could be because they are looked down upon in so many societies and cultures, including our own.  It's probably a mix of the two reasons.
4. I have always wanted to learn the cello, but my parents didn't think paying for yet another instrument (my sister and I learned 5 different instruments between the two of us) was a wise idea.  I guess I could try learning the cello now, but I don't think I have the time to devote to practising.
5. I don't like to live in constant mess and chaos (which I quite frequently do, unfortunately), but I also don't like spending all of my time tidying and cleaning...I think there is a dichotomy here...
6. My favourite season is Spring, when the weather is generally warm, but not too hot.  I would be very happy if I could find somewhere to live where it was permanently Spring.
7. I really like doilies, but I don't use them as doilies.  I use doilies as photo props, embellishments on sewing projects and I sometimes include paper ones in my gift wrapping.

To continue the fun, I want to tag:
- Samara of Maddabling
- Dannielle of danniellecresp.com
- Amanda of Calico and Co.

Hope you all had fun reading my seven random facts!
