Tagging along

Since starting this blog in January I've received quite a few comments on my posts. I love comments. The fact that people take the time not only to read my blog but also make the effort to leave me a comment is very heartwarming.

My most frequent commenter is E. over at The Adventures of E and T. She always puts so much thought into her comments that I'm almost ashamed when I write a comment that basically just says "Love those pictures!" or something like that. She has a darling little girl and is expecting a baby boy in only a few months. Anyway, she has been tagged and instead of tagging anyone else she asked the readers of her blog to take up the challenge. I can take a hint so here are 6 random things about myself that most people don't know about:

Most people don't know that...
  1. I have a blog. So far I've only told one person about it.
  2. I still remember the first AND last name of the boy I had a crush on when I was 4. I saw him again when I was about 9 or 10 and he still gave me butterflies.
  3. I hate making phone calls. It's something that I always postpone and only do when I really can't get out of it. It does work wonders for my phone bill though.
  4. I gave up drinking coca cola/pepsi two years ago to set a good example for the kids.
  5. I don't drink tea or coffee. Apparently a lot of people don't know this because I still get asked if I want coffee. Or maybe they were just being polite :)
  6. when I'm alone in the car I sing along with the radio. Loudly. Even when I don't know all the lyrics. Oh, and did I mention that I can't carry a tune? Hence the "alone in the car" part.
Well, there you are. 6 random things about me. If you are a reader of this blog, haven't commented before and feel like tagging along then please leave me a comment so I can read 6 random things about you at your blog.

PS: To E.: Happy bloggaversary by the way!

Oh Tania, thank you so much for your kind words. What a lovely surprise. You made my day.

Good on you for taking up the challenge. I didn't intend on targeting anyone specifically, just thought that someone might fancy sharing some random things about themself.

I'm glad you gave it a go as I enjoyed reading through your list.

I also sing in the car, I actually get quite carried away and like to bop around. I probably appear to other drivers like a crazed woman. Oh well, don't they say something like : dance like no one's watching". Well, I like to sing AND dance like no one's watching and boy do Sav and I have a good time doing this together.

How is the planning going for your son's knight party?

Thank you for the well wishes for my blogiversay, how very kind and thoughtful of you to notice.

Hope you are having a good day

Elise

Hi there Tania,
Came across your blog today and think I will give the 6 random things post a try over the weekend.

I also love singing loudly in the car, sometimes I forget the kids are in the back and catch a glimpse of them laughing at me in the rear mirror!!!!
With warmest wishes,
Tabitha X

I sing SUPER loudly in the car too. My favorite is when I don't know the lyrics either...then I can sing whatever I want! HA! It's a good way to entertain yourself.

I do enjoy your reading your blog!
