MY VERY FIRST MEME.... AHHH....GEE....GOSH DARN....I FEEL SO SPECIAL :)

By
Real Estate Agent with Long & Foster Real Estate, Inc., Annapolis MD 21403 DRE# 319853

whoo hoo I've been meme'dThough MEME's have been going around the Rain for ions this is my very first one and I feel so special. However.... from reading the posts of others that have been MEME'd before, this feeling will soon pass so it seems. So while the 'feeling special' is still circling round me I will enjoy every last press to the keyboard as I venture into the world of MEME's.  Thank you Debe Maxwell for making my day.

Here are all of the ground rules that need to be followed:

  1. Create a blog post with a link to the person who so happily tagged you.  See above!
  2. List all of these rules in the post. Feel free to cut and past this.
  3. Share 7 things that others may not know about you.  Do or have I HAD a life outside of real estate?  Gosh, something other than real estate after the year we have just had? Ha!
  4. Identify 7 friends, contacts or near enemies in which to adorn this MEME. Tag them at the end of the post and give a link to their blog (hey, its super easy. Even I figured it out). 
  5. Contact each of the tagged members and let them know that you were indeed fast enough to catch them and that you did indeed tag them...no matter how much they say you missed them!  No schoolyard rules in this MEME, nope you gotta do it if you are tagged.  Sorry 7 friends!  Debe made me do it! And I am sooooo glad she did!! 

 

So here goes. 7 things that you may not have known about me.

  1. I was born and raised in Annapolis Maryland and though I moved away twice, it was never for long.
  2. I am an 'oh my' child. Oh my am I really pregnant? My brother and sister are 15 and 11 years older than me. I am an only child with siblings!
  3. I have been blessed with 3 wonderful children (a son and 2 daughters), 9 grandchildren and 7 great-grandchildren.
  4. I have walked the entire 184.5 miles of the C&O Canal. From Georgetown in Washington DC all the way to Cumberland MD in 10 mile increments on WEEKENDS.
  5. I've traveled cross country and back twice by car yet have never been out of the United States. Ok maybe once when I went to Cuba when going to Cuba was allowed.
  6. My sister has lived with me for the past 4 years. She is diabetic, on dialysis and need of daily care. A true blessing in disguise I might add.My Sister
  7. I LOVE Reeses Peanut Butter cups. I could eat a bag (no two) at a sitting.

There you go

So there you go. Seven that I know everyone was just dying to know about me.

So here are the next seven lucky enough to have a MEME sent their way. And yes YOU ARE LUCKY 'cause it cometh your way from a first time MEME'er (is that a word???) so even if you have been meme'd to the moon and back please just humor this 'ol lady with all these grandchildren one more time.

Hi Special Martha...You are not supposed to make up things when writing a Meme.  There is no way that you can possibly have seven great-grandchildren.  After all, I don't have any and I am decads older than you are.

I am so happy you are so happy.  Congratulations on your very first Meme.

I'll have to see if I can "make up" seven things about myself.

Well, my special friend, I'm SOO glad I MeMe'ed you! I had no idea that you'd never been MeMe'ed (and YES, we've officially made it a word!) and you have so very much to share!  I love your comment about being an only child with siblings--never heard that one before!  And to live in one place most of your life is SO awesome--when I grew up, I wound up in Charlotte (25 years ago) and decided that I never wanted to move again (since I had moved to 9 different schools as a child). 

On a final note--I ADORE Reece's Peanut Butter Cups--AND RPBC Ice Cream too!  Have a fabulous week...
Merry ChristmasMerry Christmas

Martha - I can't believe this is your first one... wish I had realized that I'd have tagged you long ago!  I love peanut butter & chocolate in many forms... especially hagen daaz ice cream.  It's great that you and your sister have this time together.  This was a great first MeMe.

I'm  not sure there's anything you guys DON'T know about Me at this point, but I'll do my best!

Coming up with 7 things to write about myself, wasn't the difficult part. . .The hard part was suppressing the things that needed suppressing :-)

I am impressed -- the ENTIRE C & O Canal!   I've walked a bit of it, biked a bit of it, and WOW.  Great accomplishment.   I too love Reese's - so much that I can't keep them in the house, because I ALWAYS eat the whole bag in one sitting!

Kate- I know, 7 great grandchildren by the age of 40 was quite a feat. But hey someone had to do it. :) Thanks for being a good sport and doing a MEME too.

Debe- Well just because I haven't moved out of state much doesn't mean I have stayed in one place here in Annapolis. I guess I have lived in a dozen or more homes in and around Annapolis. Its that can't stay still thing that my husband says I have. LOL.

Chris- Ahhhh....Haagen Daaz, the best darn ice cream in the whole wide world. It's my next love. And thanks. It was fun to do and I appreciate you being a good sport as well. I know you have probably been meme'd to death. Merry Christmas

Myrl- Oh gee no fun at all. Well maybe not as I do not know you that well....yet LOL

Alexsandra- How cool. I have not biked the canal at all, it was all by foot and I would love to do again or at least parts of it. It is gorgeous and very inspiring. I know too well the one bag sitting phenomenon. One minute it s full and the next minute empty. Stangest thing I have ever experienced LOL

Hi, Martha - 'Finally got Internet access for a few minutes... 'Don't know whether that's good or bad.  I think ignorance was bliss when I didn't know how many emails had piled up.  'Glad I stopped by your blog and discovered your meme.  See you soon.

ME too on # 5 only I haven't been to Cuba either.  And I've gone cross country on I-10, I-20 and I-40.  Two round trips.  I love to see the country that way.
