More me, me, me
Carly emailed me this survey (I love surveys and questionnaires, as stated in "101 Things About Me")
I decided to fill it out instead of cleaning the house like I told Hubby I would while he went out to run an errand. Suddenly as I'm finishing up and about to add the email addresses in, I heard the garage door opening...YIKES! I had to quickly save it as a draft in Word and shut the computer off, and run upstairs to make it look like I had done something or I'd have to listen to his whining.

Mormon's love talent shows? Is that why you were so well-equiped for the Miss Abbotsford pageant?

I can't even tell you how many talent shows I have been in as a kid. In some areas Mormon congregations have a talent show every year!

BTW, Carly, "Mormon's"? You better watch your apostrophes there or you'll be banned from the blog!

Hey Carly when we go to JEW, maybe you could ask Tom what he did as his talent in the talent shows he's been in!

Good call on the Tom bit. I'm going to run with that.
And OMG! That's the second time I've done that apostrophe thing. It's contagious! Help!
I just came by to say... posting this was a great idea! And it's really taken off, it's on every blog I visit!
