LOL! I'm not all that mysterious!

1. I love almonds - just plain.
2. I don't like to talk on the phone for longer than 15 minutes.
3. I am not a morning person. I don't sleep in, but I don't want anyone talking to me when I get up.
4. I spent an evening in jail.
5. I've been in two fist fights. I, of course, won.

Diz- Did you live in Pumpkin Center, Louisiana? Wow- you are the first person I have ever known that actually lived there.

Is there any linkage (cause/effect?) between 2,4 & 5?

1. My first language was German (Pennsylvania Dutch)

2. My family's mode of transportation was horse & buggy till...

3. I left home at age 16

4. I pretty much like all foods... and especially stuff like wasabi, garlic, horseradish, ginger root

5. Kristin and I hope to serve as medical missionaries for a period in our life. (I am an EMT and she is an RN)

6. I sat in a confessional booth (the priest side) in Rome, Italy and forgave my wife her many sins

Steve, I saw this in all seriousness - if you are interested in a short term medical mission trip (4-5 days) in Mexico, at a very reasonable cost (about $600 each person), PM me. I can get you on a team. It's an experience you would never forget, trust me on that one!! Some day I will post a picture on here of a baby who came into the clinic the year I went and tell about the miracle that God performed on that baby's behalf. It's an amazing story!!

I am right there with you mystery woman , on 2 and 3! (except I would sleep in, if the world and my boss would allow me!)

I used to like to stay up late and sleep in, but I don't any more. I like getting up early and I like it really quiet when I get up. My husband is very cheerful and LOUD when he gets up. I have to say, "Would you PLEASE stop talking so loud!!!!!!" For 21 years!!!

You mean there is more than one??? No, I live currently in Pumpkin Center, CA. It is on the outskirts of Bakersfield, actually Bakersfield has several different areas like mine that have been absorbed by the city proper, but we have a population sign and everything. I also live about 5 miles from Weedpatch, CA. I am absolutely not joking!!! We also have Oildale!

That sounds awesome! We may do something like that to whet our appetite, but we are thinking of a year or perhaps longer... and it will be after the children are grown or nearly grown.

Thanks though, and I would still like to hear what you have to share.

Why am I suddenly thinking of Jeff Foxworthy?
