#1 Believe it or not, I never knew you were born in Michigan!!!! I surely remember you talking about San Diego, I was so jealous, and traveling all over the place as the child of a Navy man. Glad you ended up in RI….

#2 The hula video is a keeper. Makes me smile, no laugh out loud (I refuse to resort to texting initials).

#3 Remember when tatoos were for women — and men — of ill repute? No longer. I’d always wanted one, but it for sure wasn’t safe when we were young(er). The artist who did mine has an art degree from our alma mater, Rhode Island College. His place was as immaculate as a doctor’s office.

#4. I where flats. All the time. I dress for comfort.

#5 I love wine. Good wine. Especially red. But some white. Never white zin. Horrors! I’m snotty about that. But I do also love Jack Daniels neat. Our Principal at work says must be true that you have to watch out for the quiet ones.

#6 Cf. my 25 randoms things for notes on my athletic abilities, or lack thereof.

#10 Wolves. I love wolves.

#11 I am the only one in my family who can drive a stick shift. Note also that I am the only woman in my family.

12 Holy cow I fought this for years but finally succumbed

13 Tried. Stunk at it. Still do. Thank God I discovered cross stitching. My grandmother did what you could do, including coats and millinery. My mother was hopeless with a needle. I guess I fall somewhere in between.

1-25 I love everything I read about you. You have always been remarkable, with great talent and copious amounts of love that you share so willingly and generously. Joyous.

Wow, you are a hula master. I could not do it for more than 2 seconds. I’m so impressed.

But I have seen Aerosmith in concert about 8 times. They never disappoint!

Love learning more about you.

I love your blog. My daughters would be so jealous that you are seeing Aerosmith.

You are amazing! You can pogo stick and hula hoop! I am so impressed. I can’t do either. I can’t whistle either. I’ve also been tagged by a number of people for this same list. I need to get working on it.
Thanks so much for commenting on my posts! You always bring a smile to my face. I really hope to meet you one day in person. Planning on coming to Chicago any time soon?

Sharon,

I found your blog and am having a blast browsing; I’ve bookmarked it for future leisurely reading.

I just watched your hula hoop video (can’t do it, by the way). It’s funny, it’s you, and it made me cry. Really.

You are funny, you are real, you are everything I remember from our youth. I am SO looking forward to our continued relationship.

More later….

I loved reading this! The “random” facts are the best of all! I’m so impressed with how many things you can do, Sharon! You are a woman of so many talents!

What a great list! It’s fun seeing the random facts that otherwise might not come up in regular posts. I’ve actually never pumped my own gas either – although I’m from New Jersey, so for a long time I didn’t have the option. And I’m very impressed that you sewed your own bathing suits!
