I luckily got tagged today by the lovely Charlotte, and let me tell you, it was a welcome diversion from all my square talk this week. I think I have a swap hangover...I just finished up 2 big swap committments and I didn't realize what a mess I had made until I wrapped things up and went back to put things away. The entire kitchen table, part of the coffee table and my studio table were full of little scraps, squares, glue bins, pens, etc. etc. I went and got my mom and brought her over for a visit and to help me tidy and make dinner and she walked in, took one look at the kitchen table and said, "oh, my, look at all the little pieces! JJ (referring to my daughter) made such a mess!" ...erm...."mom, I did it, it's not JJ's mess." She was like, "oh" and then walked away. I suppose my crafting mess was equivalent to a frat house after a party...and let me tell you, I feel a crafting/swapping marathon hangover. Anyhoo, I'm supposed to be talking about 5 Things that are weird about me, the subject of the tagging! Ok,well, Charlotte, I have gotten this one before but it's been a while, so I will do it again! Well, y'all know what the first one will be, right?
1. I love squares. "Shocker!" as Fran would say!
2. I am a serial hair dyer. That is staying on the list as I think it's the weirdest. I change my hair color twice a year. It's been brown and black this year, but the craziest was when I got it highlighted blond for my 40th bday(above right). Once I did a reddish but that did not go over well with my husband. He doesn't like my hair red. My hair stylist knows this. I tried to say red this time and she was already pointing to the browns b/c she remembers that I said my husband hates red. But I digress....
3. I hate phones. I use speaker alot b/c I hate having it on my ear. I am the only one in my family like this. Even my Dad loved talking on the phone. My sister, mother, and oldest daughter have bionic ears when it comes to phones. They can hear my cell phone buzzing even when I don't. Every so often, they will be in a conversation with someone, stop, and tilt their head and say, "is that a phone ringing?" I don't get this...
4. I rearrange furniture alot. I think there is a name for that.
5. None of my friends know I do art or squares or blogging. I'm the most normal weird person anyone knows. I try to tell people I'm wierd, but they never believe me. You all know better....

p.s. I am tagging Andrea, Lilia, Fran, Darcy and Nance (you 2, only 5, ok?)...xxoo Lia
