Random/Interesting/Quirky Facts about Little ol' Me


  • I am the youngest of five girls. I am the baby and proud of it!

  • I have a germ-a-phobia about things lurking on vertical flat surfaces (windows, doors, walls and cabinetry) and feel the need to remove them with spraying/wiping or painting on a regular basis. No, I will not use my phobia to your advantage, so don't even think about asking. I have a hard enough time keeping the unwanted vermin off my own walls.

  • I was a 'college football wife' and never missed a game. I say this purely as bragging rights: my husband loves me enough to listen me yell and scream at grown men in spandex (something he still hears every Sunday in the fall).

  • I was a Bible Quizzer. And beat the pants off the best of them. (Does Romans 6:10 ring a bell to anyone?)

  • My husband and I are high school sweethearts. And we haven't been on a date since.

  • I cannot do nothing (multitasking is my element). Like right now, I am instant messaging with a friend, responding to my email, creating this 'tag' assignment, and heading to bed. /li>

  • I still don't know in what "style" to decorate my house, even though I've toured countless Parade of Homes for the last six years.

  • I want to participate in the Iron Man. Someday, I'll be crawling across the finish line a mere 24 hours after the true racers are done, and that's only if I don't drown first.

  • I procrastinate because I know if I went through with my original idea I would miss something truly brilliant.

Because I was bombarded from all sides by this attack assignment, and because most chain letters end with me (the infamous black hole) and because I know most of the blogger world has already been tagged and because all good things must come to an end I took the liberty to change the rules. I am totally blog-lifting this idea from The Antics of the Three 22nds, for those lurkers out there who love to watch from a distance I challenge you to write your own Random/Interesting/Quirky Facts in my comments section. I know there are some things about each of you that I do not know. So get typing.


If, by a long shot, you are a blogger who hasn't been tagged, consider a post containing 7-10 Random/Interesting/Quirky Facts about yourself.

These are the ladies I used to admire: Joolee with your sopha full of girlies, Rachel and the boys on her range, the mom of those Three 22nd, Super because she's a Mom Annette, Everything just EO with Heather, Shea's fascinating indeed, and Mrs. Jo and her Kingdom.

Sure, I take time out of my busy day to help you figure out the strike outs and what do you do?...... insinuate that you used to admire me!!?? Nice. And as I recall, I was the quizzer who used to beat the pants off everyone....????? Well, the first year anyway:(

What do you mean you haven't been on date since high school? Not even with your hubby?

Be thankful for the strikethrough…I would have had to cut you out completely without the strikethrough.

That’s right he suckered me in and then cut me off. We go places together with family and as a family, like the State Fair, Apple Orchards, camping and on the Parade of Homes Tours, but a date, just the two of us…its been a long, long time. Don’t get me wrong I am not complaining, just stating the facts.

Quizzing is on Luke this year. I memorized it in 7th grade. I am memorizing it again this year. Just to see if the old brain can do it. I am pretty much through chapter 1. Not pretty.

LOL Billi, I love all the strike throughs! You have great humor! It was fun to read and learn some things about you! Did you catch my football rant? It was a crazy day too!
