Rules: 8 facts about me, tag 6, no tag backs

1) I was born and raised in Nashville, but I don’t have a Southern accent… at least I reckon I don’t.

2) When I was very young, I was bitten by a water moccasin (deadly venomous snake). I didn’t die (no, really), but I was bedridden for weeks with huge sores all over my body. The doctors thought that I had venom-induced leukemia. My dad knew the doctors were testing for it but never told my mom. He told me years later that he cried like a baby when the tests came back negative.

3) Before I was a stay-at-home-mom, I owned a massage therapy business in Las Vegas with a dozen massage therapists. Before that, I was a registered nurse. Before that I worked my way thru nursing school by getting up 7 days a week at 4am to deliver newspapers and also working evenings as a cashier at a grocery store. Being a mom is much harder, but much more rewarding.

4) I met my life partner (Business Buddha) on Match.com, back when they had a 30-day free trial. We met 9 years ago next Monday (6/27).

5) I can touch the bottom of my foot to the top of my head.

6) I didn’t lose my virginity until I was 20 years old.

7) I have never drunk a beer or smoked a cigarette.

8) This is my first blog ever and I had a dickens of a time figuring out how to do it even though I am reasonably computer savvy.
