Ciara Knight, http://www.ciaraknight.com/ my fabulous friend has tagged me to tell seven things about myself and then tag seven more friends. So, hang on, here we go:
1. My feet were a size seven til I had the first child. Then they were a 7.5 til I had the second child. Now they are an 8.5.
2. I am a lapsed member of Mensa; I earned my bachelor’s degree in 2 years and graduated Magna Cum Laude. The only reason I wasn’t Summa Cum Laude was my philosophy teacher and I disagreed on everything and I made my only B in his class.
3. I get mad easy but I also get over it fast. I’m not a grudge holder.
4. I hate English peas. Those little green orbs turn my stomach. 
5. I don’t like dolls. Their faces can creep me out.
6. I am an empath. I try to avoid negative people and funerals as I take on all the angst around me and can feel really, really down even when I don’t know why.
7. I am the great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great grand daughter of a Lord Mayor of London and am the great, great, great, great, great grand daughter of a patriot of the Revolutionary War and they are from the same line- ergo, I love Great Britain as well as the US of A.

That is cool!! I wish I could say I was related to someone who was a mayor of anything! Alas, my people were either farmers or criminals. That’s probably why I’m so devilish and hate growing things *sigh* 😉

You’re so funny!! I bet if you looked back far enough, you’re the heir to some royal throne! Long lost princess and all that.

Dolls creep me out too, as do clowns. Can also really relate to #6. I’m hypersensitive and suck up negative or positive energy like a sponge. Just glad it works both ways : ).

I’m ok with clowns for some reason! LOL! Yeah, I’m glad that empathy works both ways for sure.

I’m related to Lord Nelson in England. 🙂 Not that I know much about him. I had the same thing happen with my shoe size. LOL. I enjoyed this, and I’m glad I tagged you,

Thanks for tagging me, Ciara- it was fun!! I love that you’re related to the Admiral! And sadly, I know a lot of people that that happened to their feet. Weird, huh?

I’m with you on the peas and feet. How does that happen that our shoe size changes? And I see the tag. Will have to give that some thought. 🙂

I knew I liked you!! The pea thing is a bonding thing! LOL! I tagged you two together as I didn’t think you had a separate blog.

I like peas in a casserole but not as a side dish. And, to grow and shuck them is the biggest waste of time I can think of. You start with a large pan and end up with maybe enough for dinner. All in all can’t think of why we bother to grow them.

I would totally not grow them! LOL!
