FALL - I think it's here !!!

Well it is here - I can see the beautiful Fall colors beginning to show up on the trees. I used to love Fall because of football and only because of football. My sons played and that was a very good time in my life, I loved watching them play. Otherwise before that it meant the dreaded WINTER is coming. I don't mind snow. It's those grey, wet, dreary, depressing days that I dislike.

TAGGED

Hali TAGGED me so I am supposed to come up with 6 quirks about myself...then tag six others to do the same ...
1. Flossing or toothpicking my teeth. I do it all the time, I can't stand things in my teeth. I have floss and/ or toothpicks in the car, by the computer, bathroom, kitchen, purse, bedstand, ahhhhhhhh what's the matter with me. I don't use floss as much now as I do those plastic brush toothpicks in the little containers.

2. I eat my cereal dry. Always dry no milk.

3. And I cannot go out without my makeup on. Not that it changes the way I look much, but it is just something I cannot go out without.

4. I am told I flip my hair when I talk, like my daughter Derrah does.

5. Oh the snail mail - I have to get the mail, my day isn't complete until I have gotten the mail. Never much good in it but I just have to get it.

6. I was reminded that I doodle when I talk on the phone, I can use several pieces of paper doodling away.

AND Hali can come get all the dust she wants from my house !!!
Ok I am tagging, Christy- cuz I 'haven't seen hers, Carrie L, my sis Barb, Aaron, Derrah - maybe she will start a blog soon, and my sis Debby in hopes she will start a blog soon. Go guys and gals.

Dad, Dad, Dad ~~~
