Bits and Pieces about me.

1.I hate to shop. There is nothing more depressing to me than to go shopping. My sister will drag me everywhere; that is if she can talk me into going. But it never seems to fail, the only reason she takes me complaining, we will find a sale that was worth the trip.

2. I really dislike cats but I have about 20 in the yard. It all started with the kids saving one from Katrina and it grew from there. I dislike them but need them. There is a hay field behind my house and when they cut it the cats have a good time. I don't have mice. I throw food out for them because they have proved the worth.

3. I am a MSU fan and my identical twin sister is a TIDE fan. Go figure. Do not know how that happened. Well I guess I do. I did not care anything about college sports until I met my husband. He graduated from MSU's engineering department. And I guess it just grew on me. My sister always seemed to be an Alabama fan.

4. My favorite color is green. Nobody would know this because I do not wear green. I do not look good in it.

5. I am the fifth child of eight. Even though I am low on the totem pole, I seemed to have gotten all the responsibility for the family. I help keep up with my father's affairs so that he can continue to live alone. This is something that he wants to do for as long as he is able. His birthday is this week and he will be 76 years old.

6. I tried out for basketball when I was in high school and made the team even though I am barely 5'2". I know that is weird but everyone else on the team was so tall and me being short, they had to bend over to guard me.
