I've Been Tagged!

Here I was having a nice quiet day while hubby is at a conference and when I check my blog I find that I have been tagged by the fabulous Kim at Daisy Cottage! So here are the rules and read them carefully because 6 of you will be tagged by moi. Each player of this game starts with "6 weird things about you". Each person who gets tagged needs to write a blog post of their own 6 weird things as well as clearly state this rule. After you state your 6 weird things, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "you're tagged" in their comments and tell them to read your blog for information as to what it means.


1- In the 70's I was in a bowling league with John Denver's Mom, Erma Dueschendorf! I was a newlywed and hubby was in the Air Force and we were stationed at the now closed Lowry Air Force Base in Denver, Colorado. John Denver's father was retired Air Force and they lived near the base where they participated in activities, one of them being bowling.


2- I have an artificial knee. Yes, that is correct, I have a metal left knee. I got it last June. I hurt that knee in a car accident when I was a teen and it has bothered me ever since. It got so bad last year that I could barely walk so I had a total knee replacement. It is a really hard surgery with a year long recovery but I am getting there and the knee feels great! I am the Bionic Woman! And yes, I do set off the metal detector at airports.


3- I love college hockey. I have have been a season ticket holder for UNH hockey for many years and I love going to games. I don't like NHL hockey-too much fighting. College hockey is fast with no fighting allowed and I love it. BTW, UNH is number 2 in the country right now.


4- I married a man I went to Kindergarten with. But I really didn't know him then. I have known him since 7th grade and we got married right after college. It's been almost 32 years and two kids now with a grandchild on the way.


5- I met Spiro Agnew. I was in college in Massachusetts and I was working at a restaurant as a coat check and he was giving a speech and I met him. This was the early 70's before he was forced to resign and Gerald Ford became VP.


6- I was at one time a "Mystery Shopper". I was employed by a company that paid me to shop and then I would write up reports critiquing the store and the employees. Everyone thinks it was a dream job-being paid to shop-but it was hard, the reports were a lot of work and the pay was lousy.


OK so I think I will tag Libby, Rosemary, Deb, The Old Painted Cottage, Judy, The Calico Cat. Oscar and Penny say you're it!
