100 Things About Me - Deb J - 64 thru 74

64. I CHOOSE MY FRIENDS VERY SELECTIVELY (PROBABLY BECAUSE I AM A TAURUS).

65. A COUPLE YEARS AGO I ACTUALLY GOT CARDED FOR BUYING A PACK OF CIGARETTES. (WHAT AN EGO BOOSTER) THAT WAS WHEN I STILL SMOKED.

66. I ALWAYS GOT AN "A" IN PENMANSHIP AND SPELLING WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL. (I KNOW, SOMETIMES I HAVE TO EAT MY WORDS!)

67. I WEAR CONTAC LENSES, BUT I HARDLY EVER TAKE THEM OUT. ( I KNOW, I'M BAD!)

68. I TAKE VITAMINS AND MINERALS EVER DAY.

69. I MEDITATE EVERY MORNING. (READING)

70. I LOVE SNOWSTORMS (UNLESS MY ELECTRICITY GOES OUT - I HAVE A PHOBIA ABOUT THAT!)

71. I LOVE WALKING IN THE WOODS AND HEARING ALL THE BIRDS CALLING & THE ANIMAL SOUNDS.

72.I LOVE GOING TO THE ZOO (SO DOES MY 8 YR. OLD YOUNG'UN!) * I SEEM TO LOVE QUITE A FEW THINGS, DON'T I?

73. I'VE BEEN TO DISNEYLAND IN FLORIDA, ONCE IN MY LIFE. (IT WAS GREAT!)

74. I REALLY LIKE READING ROMANTIC POEMS. ( I GUESS I AM A ROMANTIC AT HEART).

*THE REASON I ONLY WRITE 10 THINGS AT A TIME IS BECAUSE I WOULD NOT WANT TO OVER BORE YOU WITH MY UTTERLY NORMAL LIFE. :)

HI!I only hope to make it that far lol I loved this piece.You can learn a lot from us elders lol lol.I use to ask the girls at work why didn't someone tell me I was a senior?They thought I was kidding!I was very serious,I didn't look like a senior ,(or what I thought a senior should look like)I didn't feel like a senior,except some mornings I would be a little sore (just thought I needed a new mattress.)People took me to be my kids sister or girlfriend,(the daughters- in- laws hated it but what a boost for me lol lol Then life slapped me down .Got sick,took of work and eight months later I have aged over night!What a bummer as the kids say lol

loved your work ,keep it coming

Sorry, I don't know if you'll get this response, but my computer seems to have lost the ability to inform me when I get comments. Any comments. Has that ever happened to anyone?

My birthday is May 13, Friday (when I was born). I just apologized for jumping Randy the other day on a typo, so I'm feeling kind of bad too.
