minutiae * 7

so michelle issued the 7 things challenge (write seven things people don't know about me - i went with 7 things the blogging world doesn't know) but with a twist  - write it in poetry form. so....

minutiae * 7

presented a two-sided sink,
i prefer the right

the driveway to my log home
(no it isn't a second home)
is 1.3 miles long.
and it's dirt
and it's winding
and there is a graveyard about 1 mile in.

i'm a terrible
housekeeper

i eat raw cookie dough
anytime i have the
chance

i love reading
but not books with shiny covers.
or dr. seuss

i have moderate phobias of
snakes
heights
raw chicken
forgetting passwords

i've carried the same
purse
since 2007.
baggalini travel bag.
black.
this was a shocker to my small group.
the men loved hearing it.
the women told me to be
quiet.

is that 7?
please, someone else do this!
it was fun!
write a post or put
them in a comment.

  1. Love this!!!! We have similar purse tendencies as I carry the same one over and over. It's not because I'm being frugal but because I hate to change them out. But I realize I could use this as ammo to build myself up when my hubs suggests I spend too much money on accessories. ha! Loved your list of seven....very creative.

  2. How fun to learn a little more about you! Crazy long driveway, and although the old purse doesn't bother you. . .I feel like sending you a new one. 4 years? Crazy.

  3. I love this too! And am definitely with you in the purse...I've been gifted them or we'd be in the same boat...purse! We are actually alike in a lot of these...I smell granola on you?

    I will tell you 7 things:

    1) I am fluent in spanish (did you know) and translated on several missions as well as attended my brother-in-law's wedding in Venezuela where i translated for my hubby:) and in spain for him too...

    2) I had sao manila poisoning along with my hubby at the end of our year in Hungary...never again please!

    3) I love the BEATLES:)

    4) I milked cows til I was 12.

    5) I am afraid of heights too and had to have my hubby pray for me when we were at the top in the circus.

    6) I think schedules are HIGHLY overrated.

    7) I am an absolutely hopeless romantic:)

  4. *i meant in the top row watching the circus, NOT that we were performing 'in the top' of something at the circus!

  6. a most excellent post--i love learning the little bits of a person that make you YOU.

    ps i am so not good with purses either. the one i carry is a nameless one dollar black thing from a garage sale many moons ago...and if the past is any indication of future behavior, i shall use that thing for at least another decade before it occurs to me to change things up a bit. so you're in good company. or poor company. depending on your point of view. ;)
