I've Been Tagged: Random 8 Meme
Thanks to Featured Artist Marcia Palmer, you now get to learn 8 random facts about me. I'll be passing the tag along; it's an interesting way to get to "know" other bloggers. Rules are to list 8 random facts, tag fellow bloggers, and link to their sites so readers can find them, too.
1. I was born on Long Island, NY
2. I don't have the typical Long Island accent, except on certain words, like "coffee" and "talk"
3. I had scoliosis when I was 12; wore a back brace for 18 months, then had spinal fusion surgery at 14.
4. I was born left handed. My mother switched me at age 7. My son is left handed. I wouldn't dream of switching him.
5. I still paint with my left hand.
6. My favorite ice cream flavor is black raspberry.
7. Like my mother and grandmother, I love African violets.
8. Favorite cartoon: The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle. (shown here celebrating my birthday, which is tomorrow!)

I tried posting a response last night, but obviously flubbed it somehow (smile). So, let me try again . . .
First, thanks for the tag and all of the cool links. What a talented group of artists. I'm honored to be included amongst such creative folks! Some of them will surely end up in my growing file of favorites. As if I need yet another blog to read (smile) . . .
I found your own list incredibly interesting as well, especially #3. Yesterday afternoon we had our son examined (and X-rayed) for that very same condition. I'm hoping it's just me being an overly paranoid mother and not scoliosis. We won't get the results until Monday or Tuesday.
Also your #'s 4 & 5 jogged my memory. A couple of weeks ago, I was telling my husband about some of the advance art classes I took back in high school. I mentioned how a number of the folks in the class were lefties. I'm not a lefty, but I always wanted to be (smile).
I will try to post my own random list of 8 sometime today. Have a great birthday! Hope you eat plenty of black raspberry ice-cream.
