7 Things You Don't Know About Me But You Do Now


Ok here goes..since everybody else has done it I guess I will.

1. I have always wanted to learn to play the piano and hope I can some day before I die.
2. I have this fear of dying before I feel like I have accomplished all the things I want to.
3. When I was growing up I swam on the Riverside Country Club swim team and won many ribbons. I guess that's where I get my love for the water.
4. My pet peeve in life are the advertising inserts in all the magazines I read. Thank goodness for the Ensign because it doesn't have any unless it's once in a while advertising church stuff.
5. I used to be on the Orem High Gymnastics team and I did the uneven parallel bars as my specialty.
6. Starting in Jr. High I started passing out whenever I entered a hospital. I had this phobia about them. One time they had to take me out in a wheelchair and another time I passed out and my blood pressure was so low they had to lay me down on the ER table and here I am working in the ER now. No phobia anymore about hospitals. Thank goodness.
7. I hate being gone away from home for very long. 3 or 4 days away from home and I'm starting to get antsy. I miss my kids, grandkids, home and my own big bed. I guess I better work on this one because when we retire we're wanting to do a lot of traveling.

Ya, remember when I just needed stitches and you passed out at the hospital? I think it is funny... Now you are dealing with so much more and it doesn't bother you at all. lol
Love ya! And I knew everything on here already, of course! :)

Wow, fun stuff... You need to travel with Morris, he'll break you of that but I really need to at least talk to my kids often when we're gone. Leaving the country is harder but after 3 days you really get into the travel mode especially when the nights are really comfortable. Yeah for 4 start or 5 star hotels.

Fun list! That is totally ironic about your hospital phobia. When did you overcome it?

Diana said...

I wish I could play the piano too.

Hey, I would never have guessed you had a phobia of hospitals! Isn't that neat that we can overcome traits we once had? Abbi used to absolutely DREAD running in PE, and now you can't stop her from running her lights out. (She even ran in Michigan when it was 10 degrees! brrrrrrrr)

OK, I want to see some of the parallel bar routines when we come down.

And you're a swimmer too?? There is no end to your talents!

I have totally enjoyed reading these '7 things' blogs. Thanks for sharing it with us!
