I’ve been tagged by Larry at Life’s Curveballs. Hmm, seven random or weird facts about me…

1. My housemates consist of 3 parakeets - Skye, Opal & Karma; a beta fish called Blue (because he’s blue); and a German Shepherd named Zoey.
2. I used to commute every day to Boston, MA from Mystic, CT on the train.
3. Sailboat racing was a passion, raced on a 42′ and also owned my own 24′ sailboat.
4. Way back when I was little, I played all day in the snow, climbing trees, etc. with this boy. When we went in his house and took off our winter coats and hats, he ran upstairs horrified, yelling… “You’re a girl!” Guess that was back in the time of “kooties”.
5. I make and play native style drums (red cedar & elk). Have played at open mike nights and with a celtic group at a pub in Mystic.
6. I’ve never been farther west than Ithica, NY.
7. I own my own tablesaw and know how to use it.

Ok… consider yourself tagged:

• John Malenda
• Jodi at Jodi’s Journal
• JJ at Nature’s Shows and Dreams
• Louise at Island Wench
• Lance at Lance’s Soul Searching
• Liara at Dreambuilders
• Rainer at The Esoterical Journey

Now for the rules:

1. Once you are tagged, link back to the person who tagged you.

2. Post the rules on your blog.

3. Post 7 random or weird facts about yourself on your blog.

4. Tag 7 people and link to them.

5. Comment on their blog to let them know they have been tagged.
