Tagged

I was recently tagged by my friend Jamie. Ironically, I'm new to the world of blogging and I don't know anyone that blogs besides her. So, I'll simply play along and if anyone feels brave enough to share some "random facts/habits about themselves in the comment section, than make yourself at home!

The rules: Post the rules before giving the facts. Players start with eight random facts/habits about themselves. People who are tagged need to write on their own blog about their eight things and post these rules. At the end of the your blog you need to tag (hopefully) six people and list their names. Leave them a comment on their blog, telling them they have been tagged and not to forget to read your blog.

Here goes nothing:

1) I have never smoked a cigarette or used drugs.

2) I started selling Discovery Toys when Campbell was four months old. As a consultant, your goal is to earn your way to the incentive trips that are held in February of each year. The year I joined they decided to send 10 "wild card" winners on this trip. Basically, they draw random names out of a hat of the consultants that didn't quite make the numbers. Imagine my surprise when my Senior Consultant called me with the good news. You guessed it! I was one of the lucky wild card winners! On top of that, I could take one person with me on this FREE (air fare included) all-inclusive resort to Los Cabos, Mexico. Brent and I had a wonderful time! I stopped selling DT soon afterwards. I got my free trip out of it and I was done! Check out my pics on our website. : )

3) When I was in the seventh grade I cheated on a few of my spelling test and never got caught. I would basically write the words on my desk and cover it with my paper. At the end of the year I got a certificate for having the highest spelling average in my class. I know....that's really, really bad!!

4) When I was 16 years old, a friend and I were in a near drowning accident in Panama City Beach, FL. The current was so strong that it swept both us out from under our feet. I remember praying for God to save us. Eventually, we couldn't fight it any longer and lost consciousness. Thankfully, God heard my prayers and we were rescued while floating on our backs. As soon as we were pulled out of the water we gained consciousness. I remember to this day while I was laying on the beach waiting for the ambulance to come and get us, my mom said to me in so many words, "God saved you because he is going to bless you with grandchildren". We were released from the hospital 3 days later.

5) While I was in college I wanted to conquer my fear of the water and became a certified life guard at a local military base.

6) I went on a couple of mission trips while in college for the summer in Panama City Beach, FL with Campus Outreach Ministries.

7) I was a "Mat Maid" my last two years of high school. (Wrestling Cheerleader)

8) I used to love Strawberry Shortcake Doll when I was a child. I had Strawberry Shortcake curtains and bedspread. I think my sister had Holly Hobby.

OK, I think that does it.
