valarltdI was tagged to do 8 things about myself that you may not know.
1) I am a dancer, and other dancers recognize it by my turnout. I had tap and ballet lessons as a small child, ballroom and square dancing in my teens and Eastern dance and folk dancing in my 20s and 30s.
2) I walked out of Fellowship of the Ring crying. Victoria Sparrow asked me what was wrong. My answer was "nothing. Not one thing. It was perfect."
3) I can knit and crochet, but I also embroider, do counted cross-stitch, sew, do plastic canvas work, use fimo clay and do pyrography.
4) I am the annoying kind of reader. Grammar is something I acquired by osmosis, not something that was taught. After I passed the phonics stage, I read not only whole word but whole sentences by shape. This makes acquiring a new language difficult.
5) I have 4 kids because I don't have 5. I got out of the Christian Quiverfull movement around the third child. My 4 God Warriors turned out to be 2 witches, a Catholic and a who-knows-what.
6) I believe that Brian Dailey sitteth at the right hand of the Great Flanneled One forever and ever, and nothing Disney does to the SW franchise can change that.
7) Depending on how you count it, I am an only child, the oldest of 2, the oldest of 3, the third of 4, the middle of 5, or thirteen out of 15.
8) I had a pony when I was very small. I had a fat white Shetland named Snowball. Sean Murphy used to ride double with me and he would sometimes kick her to maker her move faster. We usually ended up on the ground when he did.
