Debi Ernst tagged me for this MeMe.  I'm doing it, but not willingly...  :(

 

I am approaching a milestone birthday soon.

I think I like summers more than the school year.  Less stress.

I can roller skate real well... when I had knees that didn't have arthritis. 

I want to help out next summer with the feed the children program in Middletown, CT

I have two sons, the oldest is Kyle and the younger one is Jakob

I wish I had could give my sons the things I had when I was going up.

I hate negativity.

I miss my father who past away 7 years ago.

I fear running out of money.

I feel excited I have another closing today.

I hear "what??".  LOL.

I smell dampness in the air..it is 5:15am.

I search for a better way.

I regret nothing... everything is right where it should be.  Or at least I hope so.

I love my sons.. completely.

I care about people's wellbeing.. Good thing I'm in real estate.

I always am up at 5:00am to get the day started.

I am not going camping anymore.  Too much like work.. very little return...

I believe in God and know there is a much bigger picture out there than I am aware of.

I dance for exercise, and expression of feelings.

I sing terribly.. nothing more can be said about this.

I don't always get enough sleep.  Too much work, so little time.

I write very little now adays.. everything is done on the computer.

I win very rarely when I go to Mohegan Sun and play Blackjack... so, I don't go that often anymore.

I lose my patients, when I deal with attorneys that don't know what they are doing... I had a bad closing yesterday.  Thank goodness the sellers attorney took control and helped out my clients attorney.

I never smoke.  Can't afford it physically, or economically.. so why bother?

I listen to jazz and blues... both help me to relax. 

I can usually be found  sitting at the computer.. where I am now.  LOL.

I am scared of driving over bridges with water beneath them.  Of course, there would be two of these around me that I need to go over at least twice a week.

I read (in the process of reading) a book by John Grisham.. The Partner, 98% done, don't tell me how it ends.

I forget to fill this one in.

I am happy about the Labor Day Weekend coming up.  I actually have 2 days off, no work, and no children... I can have adult time... hurray!!!

Now I think I'll tag, George Souto.. if it weren't for him, I would not be a part of ActiveRain; Steve Loynd; and Laura Watts...  Have a good day.:)

Valerie - Its almost surprising how much this seemingly simple post reveals about the authors.  I've read several and am intrigued by each.  I particularly like the fact that you regret nothing.  I believe that your past experiences (all of them) define who you are.  If you are happy with who you are today, then you can't regret how you got there.  Changing the past would change the present.

Great detail about yourself.  I agree with Erik, these posts do reveal a lot about the author

Valerie, this was an excellent MeMe. I share that no regrets thought with you but you are a much better morning person than I. I'd be doing good on the other end of the day. Enjoy your Labor Day.

Erik.. I like my life, love my children.. and if I didn't go through everything I did when I was younger, it would not bring me to where and who I am now.  Thanks for reading my blog.

Kay, I can honestly say I DO NOT LIKE filling this out, it reminds me of chain letters.. UGH.  But as you commented, and I agree it tells everyone a little more about yourself.  Who knows, maybe a potential client might see something they like.

Laura, My birthday is in February.. This gets me thinking too.  I'm trying to figure out when yours is.  I'd like to venture to say either January or July.  Let me guess these are wrong.  If so, when is your birthday.
