I’ve Been Tagged! April 4, 2008
Posted by Donna in Uncategorized.trackback
Part of me is excited cuz I have never been tagged before. Part of me is thinking, “oh crap, who am I gonna tag.” The only people I can tag either were tagged by Trish (Becky) or it IS Trish!
Okay, here we go…
Here are the rules
1. Link to your tagger and post these rules on your blog…
2. Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog – some random, some weird.
3. Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blogs.
4. Let them know they are tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
So here are my 7 random and/or weird things:
7. I used to be in the U.S. Navy as a hospital corpsmen (1973-77) before becoming a registered nurse.
6. I was a semi-finalist in the Miss Teen USA Pagent in 1972.
5. I did some modeling as a teen before I became a human blimp:)
4. I am related to Susan Lucci of All My Children…her grandfather is my grandfather’s cousin. She and I have never met.
3. I had open heart surgery in 1977 to repair a birth defect no one knew I had until my Navy discharge physical. I was 22 and had a whole in my heart (atrial septal defect).
2. I once took a pinch hitters course in flying to learn how to land a plane since my husband has his pilot’s license. I figured if he decided to re-enter the food chain from 6,000 ft. I wanted to know how to get down!
1. And finally, as all two of my faithful readers know, my son is a professional racecar driver.
And the 7 people I tag:
Hmmmm….I really need to come back later to add them since I haven’t met them yet. Wait, here’s Sammie!
6 and 5, did I know this before??? Did you know I could say the same? Or nearly. I wasn’t a finalist. But I was a contestant. LOL We should talk some time. We were hottie boom botties in our day…why did we end up like this? I have a theory about me. Do you have one about you?
Yay – thanks for playing! So many things I did not know about you. These are great. “re-enter the food chain” is hysterical. Open heart surgery. Wow! You’re a rock. A hero.
The blogosphere is a mess. I haven’t really found a “community” like what we had in our small corner of the web. That’s why most of who I still consider to be my blog/journal friends are from that era. They/you always will feel like some kind of family. It’s great actually. We’ve grown roots.
ok, i couldn’t resist your plea for more visitors to your blog! (Hahn or Trish…can’t remember back 5 mintues ago)
my partner was in the army and now is a nurse. wassup with that?
i wish I had your son’s job — I have a need for speed!! It’s always been my fantasy job….if I had the guts to really do it.
