Hmmm … why do I think of this?
I was just tagged by Ann Oro in the meme going around the education blog circles called “Seven Things”. See the video does make sense!
Here are the rules:
- Link your original tagger(s), and list these rules on your blog.
- Share seven facts about yourself in the post – some random, some weird.
- Tag seven people at the end of your post by leaving their names and the links to their blogs.
- Let them know they’ve been tagged by leaving a comment on their blogs and/or Twitter and/or Plurk.
So here are my 7 Things You Might Not Know About Me:
- I have lived in 5 states in the U.S. and 1 foreign country, Canada, and even went to high school in Canada.
- I am the oldest of 5 children in my family, only 4 of whom are still living.
- I was a major teen idol “fan” way back when and spent way too much time & money following The Osmonds around the country. I’m the mother of two “fans” of my own these days which explains my knowledge of the video above – that and the fact that I teach elementary & middle school girls!
- Speaking of being a “fan”, one of the first groups I loved was The Cowsills and today I am their webmaster. If only I would have known what would be when I was 12 and in love with John Cowsill.
- I am a wanna be photographer (okay maybe you did know that one) and take a lot of pictures for my daughters’ dance studio and for my school’s yearbook.
- I love to scrapbook – okay these days this should be, I love to think about scrapbooking since I can’t remember the last time I actually did any scrapbooking. I do still have lots of supplies though and I even have a Scrapbooking Website … that I haven’t updated in ages.
- My two favorite drinks are Diet Coke and Snake Bite (the lager & cider variety if you please).
- Oh and a bonus one, I met my husband in a bar – okay really a PUB which is different than a bar. Yes you can meet people in a bar (uh, pub) and to tie it in to some of the other 7 things … I was at the bar to see Bob & Susan Cowsill (#4) and I was drinking a Snake Bite (#7)!
Now it’s my turn to tag and I’m supposed to tag 7 others. The problem is most everyone I would normally tag has already been tagged so I’m only tagging 4 and they are: JoNelle Gardner, Amber Coggin, Kevin Jarrett and a non-edublogger, Tracy P! Tell me something I don’t know about you.



Interesting list. I’ve made several scrapbooks over the years. My sister was a Creative Memories consultant for a while.
I’ve often thought, when I was younger, if only I could speed up the clock and see what happens. It’s pretty neat that you are webmaster to one of your old favorite groups.
Thanks for playing along!
This has helped me catch up on some great blog readings and see more of my favorites. I enjoyed reading your entries. The Cowsills AND the Osmonds….who knew? New resolution: I will now call all bars…pubs.
Thanks Vicky!
Very interesting things about you! I LOVE scrapbooking, and switched to digital a few years back. I wish I had more time as well. Maybe this summer…
Your #8 is so cute. I like the way you tied it all together.
