8 Random Facts About ME

13 August 2007 7 Comments

21st Century Mummy tagged me. Here’s 8 facts about me….

1. Writing Lists

I am mildly obsessed with writing lists. Shopping lists, to do lists, master to do list, blogging to do list, you name it, I have a list for it.

2. I Collect Notebooks

And what would all obsessive list makers collect? Notebooks of course. Lined, blank, fancy and plain, I love them all.

3. 2nd in Cross Country

In first year of high school we had a ‘Fun Run’ which was actually a fairly gruelling cross country race. Out of about a hundred others, I came second whit no prior experience of running….I don’t think anyonelse could be bothered!

4. First Aid at Sandhurst

I was a member of the national first aid team for cadets after winning the regional finals. The nationals were held at the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst. I mentioned in my life story that it was my dream to pass out at Sandhurst and become an officer during my teenage years so even getting to visit there was a big deal for me.

5. 5 Generations

I am the fourth generation of five generations of females in my family.

6. Met my husband when I was 15

Yup, we met at cadets, and he proposed to me when I was sixteen.

7. I love watching cookery programmes

I don’t watch much tv but I do like to watch cookery programmes.

8. I’m 5ft 1 and a half (some would argue less)

So now you know why it’s called littlemummy.com

I tag T-bird, Most Least and guineapigmum

    Thank you Little Mummy – love the list. My mum is the same height, I wonder if I can call her little nanny? – (can’t believe it’s taken me so long to think of that). Shriek…a list maker. My husband is a member of the list-making club…I’m the complete opposite…if I see him making a list I have to leg it, but then I come back to a much longer one. No wonder I am so disorganised :-D

    Do you like Moleskin notebooks? They are quite cool, though not as cool as the floral ones I prefer.

    My favourite notebooks are the ones with pockets at the back when I put cinema ticket stubs, leaflets to exhibitions, receipts for meals I enjoyed, boarding passes.

    I love lists but they get out of control, then I try to compile them into a spreadsheet of all the things I have to do for my businesses, kids, home etc and then sit back and contemplate the thought that I might have OCD or that I just have far far too much on my plate!
