Oscraps

TELL me something I don't know...

:o Cat ... glad you still became a mom :)
what did you speak before you were 5 ?

OK ... here's an easy one to share :
I lived in Egypt for 3 years as a kid.
 
Love this thread!

What don't you all know about me?

Hmmm..

I was born with a club foot and had to have casts on my legs as a baby to straighten them out. My dad couldn't tuck me in at night until me legs were covered.

I knew I was going to have two kids, Scott and Caitlyn when I was in HS.

I was forced to go to church until I was confirmed ( but we didn't take confirmation names), then I was allowed to stop going.
I almost didn't get my First Communion because I asked the priest why it was so important to memorize prayers rather than pray in your own words. I was in first grade and could not for the life of me remember the Hail Mary. I was always a rebel LOL
 
Too bad they don't have all night libraries!

Are you a librarian? I am too; my degree is in library science ... not actually working in a library right now (just left libraries after 8 years this summer), but still using some "library skills" as a web producer.

This thread is awesome. Learning so much about everyone.

Here's a few more about me:

My parents have the same birthday but they were born in different years.

I once ate cow heart kabobs in Peru. They were actually very tasty.

I am a huge college basketball fan, love the ACC, especially the UMD Terappins. So looking forward to bball season!

That's like when we went to Coz...Wendy was a LOT taller than I thought and Chris was a lot shorter!! How fun to find out all of these little tidbits!!!

...like you guys wanted to know Cora makes more money than me!! LOL!!!!
 
Linda, when you said you learned how to skip in college, at first I thought you meant how to cut class. I was going to say me too! But actual skipping, that's cool. I often say it is an underrated mode of transportation.

To tell the truth Donna...I did learn that kind of skipping as well!:D
 
Cora! I would have never guessed your height! I also thought you were a tall chick!

Here's one for you all about me - I am terribly, incredibly LAZY!!!! :D

Yup! I am a school librarian right now. I do the library and the technology at the school. I love it!
 
this thread is FUN! Let's see... what you might not know about me...

I was born on my aunt's birthday (one of dad's sisters)
I have a B.S. in Psychology that I've never used...
I'm afraid of heights and totally HATE roller coasters...
I love to collect turtle figurines and stuff!
 
ohhhh Sandra's in da house!!! love that, san!!!

which reminds me...I collect sheep...oh yeah...you knew that!!
 
Most of you know this but for those of you who don't, I got married when I was 17.

I am obsessed with body modifications. Tattoo's & Piercings. I am starting a full sleeve in honor of Dia De Los Muertos in January or February.

I dropped out of high school after I had to repeat my freshman year. (I scored college levels on my Pre-SATs)

I LOVE rubber duckies, obsessed actually. I have boxes of decor for my bathroom.
 
Hee hee! Love this thread!
Kayleigh, make sure you take lots of pics as you get your sleeve done!

Another thing you know but not all of it- I am a Disney fanatic.
I collect Disney stuff. We have collectible, Disney Xmas tree. I have a Disney kitchen- plates, silverware, decorations and so on. Disney World is my favorite place to be. I never went there as a child- my first trip was with Gary after we got married and we have been there 4 times since. We took Scott on his first trip there when he was only 15 months old. I get very jealous when other people go now that we haven't been in so long, because I am possessive- Disney is *my* place LOL

I also have a Mickey Mouse tattoo!
 
My maiden name was Noel. When I got married, I officially made that my middle name. Each of my children have that as a middle name. At Christmas, the only ornaments on the tree without Noel are the ones that the kids choose specially to represent that year!
 
yep... I got it as a Mother's Day gift to myself in 2003 LOL

I smoked for 7 years, from 16 to 23. I quit in October 2003, but, every time I go out (to a bar or a club) or am around SIL's fiancee (who smokes menthols, which was my fav) I still have at least 1. I don't know if I will ever be able to completely stop. When I'm in the car I still crave them.
 
I *can not* drive with any form of shoe on. I have to be barefoot.
Which is extremely uncomfortable in winter time, but the only time I have ever worn shoes, I got in a car accident.
