Random things

Becca tagged me to write six random things about myself. I get to tag six others when I'm done, so this sounds like fun.

Here are the rules:-

- Link to the person that tagged you
- Post the rules on your blog
- Share six non-important things/habits/quirks about yourself
- Tag six random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs
- Let each random person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their website

Food and texture
I can't eat food that has certain texture. Even if it tastes really good, my stomach turns at dim sum, dumplings, ravioli and other such comestibles.

Colour makes me happy
I love colour. Mediterranean blue, pumpkin orange, fuchsia, blue-based reds...

I can't stand having to do something
Drives me nuts. Even if it's a good thing. I want to do what I want when I want and hate that work gets in the way of this. This is why I so look forward to retirement. I'm willing to put up with a lot of grey and wrinkled skin to have freedom. This is also why I don't want pets. Once the kids are gone I'm ditching responsibility totally... or almost totally.

My daughter and I have found the key
It happened in an instant in late November. She spoke a simple truth and I listened... really listened... and we connected. For the first time. It feels so good to be this way. Completely life changing.

Becca
Becca is my best friend and lives on the other side of the universe and I miss her.

Jewelry
Show me something that sparkles and I'm a happy camper. It doesn't have to be expensive, I'm happy with semi-precious stones in silver. Size does matter; big is good.

Shopping
I'm not a shopper. I don't hang out in malls. I don't window shop. When I need stuff, I buy tons and then retreat. I do enjoy buying stuff for the house that makes me laugh like the metal sheep that sits out in my garden.
