And I really have PLENTY else to occupy myself right now and should put this on the bottom of the list, doing it later, but it shouldn't take much time and so... I'm doing it now...

Dot on Somewhere Over the Rainbow tagged me...

List 7 random things about myself....

1) It's 72 degrees F outside and I have a small space heater warming my toes. My feet get cold and this house seems to hold the cold (or the heat) even though there is NO insulation in it, anywhere. (My hands get cold, too.)

2) My favorite artist is Renoir and I have a lithograph that was bought on the Champs Elysee in Paris by my high school French teacher. My family couldn't afford the trip so she bought Renoir's Le Moulin do la Galette for me there. It's my favorite painting of his. I have the lithograph framed and hanging over my couch in my living room.

3) I prefer watercolors over acrylics to paint with.

4) I never thought I'd ever enjoy talking with/in front of groups of people, and yet have discovered that it's not all that bad... and after doing that at the Arlington Book Fair for the last 6 years (incl. this last weekend), I'm finding that it's getting easier and easier... I think. LOL

5) I've been using online-based email since the beginning of January this year. (Really need to go clean up my pst file and start afresh so I can have email-based in the program on my computer. I really do prefer to do it that way.)

6) The music you hear on my Playlist.com (bottom of page) really is my favorite music. There's a few songs I haven't been able to find there, but these are all "my kind of music!"

7) I am in  a current kick of loving Coke Slurpees at 7-11. I'm trying to limit them since I got the word from the doc that my cholesterol went up (first time in my life) and I need to limit sugar, fat, calories. So although I was having maybe 3-4 a week, I'm trying to cut it down to one a week. We'll see how I do.

If you're reading this, consider yourself tagged, unless you don't do that sort of thing...

I started going thru my list of friends' blogs and discovered the majority seem to not like doing Tags. So out of deference to their preferences, I won't tag anyone here... so if you decide to do this, just post a comment here and let me know if you took "the challenge" to be tagged. ;)  I'll be happy to come over and read your blog!
