Inquiring minds asked so here it is.......................
The irony is that I was MeMe'd in March when I was first here and did a meme which I totally messed up because I actually posted to the group rather than on my blog for the group - that blonde hair will get you in trouble all the time. So please Check out:I was challenged to tell more about Me! Me!- so here goes...
So interestingly enough 3 of my new friends - Ashley Drake & Peggy Edwards, Thesa Chambers, nominated me to tell more about myself so here goes, Part II - 5 more things....
1) We started homeschooling our two boys this last September - I must say Jack does most the heavy lifting- I'm the field trip / substitute teacher when his work calls him away :-).
2) I was offered a scholarship to college for softball. I played growing up and played pitcher and right field. Learned the meaning of teamwork being both the "focal point" as pitcher and the "weaker link" in right field - doing what the team needs.
3) I love the water - and have been swimming since I was 2 years old. I swam competitively through HS too. I love the beach and the beach lifestyle.Flat Mark Flanders can vouch for that! I love the beach, the beach and did I say the beach - oh yeah, and throw in beach sunsets too.
4) I enjoy red wine and dream of touring California Vineyards or France at sometime (kid-free) - so looking forward to visiting my friends in that area :-) For now I'll have to enjoy a glass at all my favorite local restaurants.
5) We enjoy camping and getting away from it all and are lucky to live in an area with lots of great places to get away too within a days drive. Ft DeSoto is our favorite spot!
I'd love to share a Florida Beach Sunset - you may find you fall in love with them too...

Cyndee - at first I thought man this woman is quick - then I read your post - I think you should be off the hook - check your mail and you will laugh with me
Hi Cyndee, sorry if we bombarded you with meme requests...I went back to read your original meme and am just blown away by your artistic abilities. You are so talented! Thanks for sharing with us. (Your boys are just adorable!)
Cyndee - Thanks for sharing - I mean, you didn't really have a choice! All the same, I am glad to know more about you. The sunset was beautiful and one of the things I miss most about California.
Peggy - thanks for thinking of me! Look forward to meeting in person and getting acquainted. I do enjoy painting and making things for others. Who knows maybe you'll get some painted glasses one day :-)
Well after three of us tagged you I think you really owed us this one! Glad to learn more about you from this one. You know I homeschool as well and I do love seeing your localism posts looking forward to more.
Nice to find out more about you. Those gulf coast sunsets are SO beautiful. We used to go down to St. George Island back when we lived in Georgia. We are counting the days down now to our beach vacation on the Carolina Coast.
Ashley - it's flattering to know that I've started so many friendships that want to know more about me than just what I know about "Clearwater Florida Real Estate"
Rita - I still see a visit here in your future :-) I gotta say Beach sunsets are a great way to end the day! Tranquil and Majestic. My sister and parents have a house on the beach at Kill Devil Hills, NC - is that anywhere near you? I may come up for a week - it would be great to get together.
We are about an hour south of Raleigh in the middle of the state. We go to the beach at Oak Island south of Wilmington. The island runs east - west so you can get sunrises and sunsets over the water. The only bad thing is our beach vacation goes by so quickly every year.
Thanks for sharing...always nice to see a little into the lives of other members so I can grasp a little more of what they would be like in person....one day...maybe we'll have a giant conference for 30k+ members! WooHoo!
Sally, thanks for stopping by - wouldn't that be fun! I like learning more about everyone too. I would love to come to Hawaii one day too. Seems like another piece of paradise.
Kim - you were on my list to Meme too! I hope one of our friends meme's you, start thinking, I predict one's coming your way! - Yes I love the beach, it relaxes me and gives me joy - could it be anything like rides on your motorcycle? :-)
Cyndee ~ You've got some cute boys there! How cool you home school or Daddy does...he must be very patient and proud! Your sunsets are great too. BTW you need to put a <br /> or more after your last link and before The Button (you know which one I mean) to give it a space. <br /> is like a carriage return...
KK - thanks for visiting and the kind words and yes Dad is amazing at homeschooling & an awesome husband too- so I got one of the good one! Glad to share my sunsets with you.
P.S. Thanks for the tip - didn't know how to fix it!
Loved it! Loved it! Loved it! What a great meme post!! I love the beach and especially your video of the sunset! Beautiful.... reminded me of when I lived in Hawaii.
please rate this post 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
By the way, I Enjoyed our chat today, looking forward to the next time! :-) Thanks Cyndee.
Cyndee, I love learning about you more and more everytime I come over. Well, now I know where to take you when you come over to California. We are very close to all the great Vinyards. Thank you for the MeMe!!!
Thanks Brad - I enjoyed our talk to - I wish you were here - you'd definitely be my escrow guy! Thanks for the kind words and support - you make blogging here fun and friendly.
Oh Mana - that would be amazing wouldn't it! Did you check out the first post?
I can't wait to see yours and letting people get to know more about you - you're such an awesome addition to this community.
I enjoy all your posts and my husband keeps teasing me saying - the kids think you're "bogging" your friends! Give up the laptop - I tell him those are fighting words!! LOL
Mana - I did check out your blog - it was a scream!
Randy - Jack deserves all the credit - but we've seen a huge impact on the kids. He's made a real personal commitment to make it happen - can you tell I'm his biggest Fan! THanks for visiting my MeMe.
Thanks for the sunset! Aaaah! I love that you homeschool. I have a friend and neighbor who does such an amazing job of that with three of her kids, she inspires me! I think she's the best teacher I've ever seen. Keep up the good work!
Cyndee ~ OK let me get this straight you MEME'd me and I need to create an AR BLOG that tells you 3 things about me? I will do that now... what a GREAT pic of you and the Boys (S&A). They are dolls! ...so sweet!!
Katirna - thanks for your kind words - actually tell 5 things about yourself - and then tag 3 other people to share about themselves. Join the MeMe group and be sure and post your AR blogs there.
Cyndee---thanks for DOUBLE-DOING the MEME thing for me!! I am so excited to share a part of MY FAMILY with AR!!! The boys are too cute---where's Jack in all these pictures? LOL
I can't believe I'm still AWAKE after the 4AM thing from last night! I was on the phone until my cell died... UNBELIEVABLE!!! I will have to call you tomorrow! Tomorrow is the BLUE PLATE MISSION so I stay out of trouble with my coach! LOL
Kaye,- Thanks for stopping by to share a sunset with me - I haven't been to California since I ws a smal child but with all my new California friends - I'd love to visit someday. I always enjoy your visits.
Lucky - actually your list made me revist my newbie faux pas - it went to never never land. Thanks for stopping by - No, I was a slow pitch pitcher for a girls team-glad you thought of making a list and are keeping it up - great idea. I hope you'll visit again soon!
Cyndee, most of my friends home school too. WOW, not me, I tried it with my first 2 and it was way too much work. This was great to learn more about you !
According to Google, we are 4.5 hours West of Kitty Hawk. I haven't been to the Outer Banks since my 12 year old was 2 but the beach out there is wonderful as well!
Cyndee, your boys are adorable. And I was absolutely blown away by the fact that you are homeschooling them. That's a full-time job all by itself. Truly, you are super-mom! I loved the sunset, complete with ocean sounds. Nice meme!
With every post I read my amazement grows. Do you ever sleep? If you do find yourself in Southern California, I would love to share some fine red wine with you and Jack.
Darrel - thanks for the visit and support - I appreciate it more than you can know. Hope to see you again soon! Oh Darrel - you know my week spot - red wine in California..it will happen some day and I'd love to take you up on it.
