I was tagged by Barry over at Frost Bottom Farm for the "Honest Scrap Award" and a meme. I don't usually do the award/meme thing much these days, but this one looked like a fun one to do for a change, AND I was very honored that Barry thought of me to tag.
Speaking of Barry, if you like Cape Cod, farming, the outdoors, running, New England travel and the like, you should go check out his blog at Frost Bottom Farm! I've been reading his blog for quite awhile - always something interesting, and always lots of good pics!
10 Honest Things About Me
1. I think I am sometimes more influenced by the label on the bottle of the wine than the taste of the wine itself. I often buy Toasted Head because I just love the label. Is it good wine? I have no idea!
2. I am going to be 40 this April. I'd like to do something special, but I have no idea what. I have been seriously trying to think of something since LAST April, and still am undecided. When my husband asked me the other day what I wanted to do for the big 4-0 I said I think at this point I'm ready to call it quits on thinking of an idea and I'm ready to just go through the drive thru at McDonald's and call it a day.
3. I'm totally fine about turning 40. In fact, BRING IT ON BABY!
4. I read super fast. Sometimes I have to consciously make an effort to read slower, so I actually read every word and absorb the little details. Otherwise I just race over the words and pick up the important points and miss the nuances. It's actually very hard to try to read slower. I was looking back at old report cards and from the comments that are written, apparently I was like a reading prodigy in elementary school.
5. I've toyed with the idea of writing a book, but then I think that probably everybody thinks they can write a book. I probably can't write a book!
6. I love romance novels. I know - is there anything lower on the literary totem pole? Well, you wanted honesty, there it is. (I do read other things btw (yeah, literary greats like "Twilight" HA HA), and the romance novels I read AREN'T the ones with the red covers and flames, LOL! I prefer the ones that leave something to the imagination!)
7. Even though it's the dead of winter, I still hate summer.
8. I have very light green/gray eyes, but if I'd had my choice I would have chosen brown eyes. I like brown eyes best.
9. I'm going to be spending my Valentine's Day at a Daytona 500 Party, and that is cool with me.
10. I've typed then deleted a bunch of things as I composed this list - honesty is a great thing, but I think some things are better kept to oneself...
If you decide to do this meme on your own blog, please let me know in the comments so I can read yours!
