- I like grocery shopping. I really like grocery shopping. It's been great having a large house to go shopping for, because that way you get a list and don't feel extravagant for walking through each and every aisle in the store. It's a necessity - otherwise you can't find what you're looking for!
- My brother & sister made me pretend that I believed in you know who at Christmas time for a few years after I learned the truth. They were worried that our present quotient would decrease if Mom & Dad knew that I knew that you know who wasn't real.
- I love to play card games, but I can never remember the rules to any game!
- I have very poor motor skills and hand eye coordination. As a result, from 1st to 4th grade I had to join the special ed class in elementary school for an hour of exercises. I was in advanced reading and special ed at the same time! I also missed religion class once a week to attend the special ed classes .... hmmm....
- I spent my early childhood stuffing envelopes with campaign literature and going door to door asking people to vote for my Dad (he was a local elected official).
- I always wanted to be a bureaucrat (government worker) when I grew up. Until of course I was a bureaucrat for 11 years or so, when I realized I wanted to be a nun instead!
- I used to strike out at tee ball (see #4 above).
- I own my own bowling shoes, and yet I never get to go bowling! Although I am a horrible bowler truth be told (see #4), and my shoes are in storage in Portland.

Hi!
Thanks for the 8 random facts! I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who enjoys grocery shopping! I didn't think to put it in my list, but it's true none-the-less.
Glad to see you're doing well, by the way. I'm going to put a link to your blog on my blog page (finally). I've been meaning to, but you know how that goes.
Blessings in the final days of Advent!
*wave* I used to be in the special ed class for gym, too, in elementary school. That was really fun, since like you, I was also in advanced/honors reading classes, etc. I think I can safely say that those classes didn't do diddly to help me later in life. I'm still a klutz, and my gross motor coordination is still rotten. How's your fine motor coordination? I've noticed mine's better than most people. Compensation for the other being lousy?
