Actually, that was really interesting. The part about reading with noise baffles me. Maybe that is why I can't seem to get through a book. My house is too NOISY.
I remember that about Tara. You guys mocked her so much....Steve, and Dan were guilty too. And the job, that is a high paying job when you are poor! My highest was 10,000.
I am laughing about the potatoe bar, seriously? And just out of curiosity why 11:11 because it's all 1 or something? I am totally opposite I guess because I am a huge COPIER and follower. Call me a sheep if you will.
re:Jenny's comment
Funny, since Steve and Dan both asked to be set up with some of my fellow cheerleaders.
Lucy, I don't like being read to either, yet I do enjoy listening to books on tape. I have never heard of suavitel (sp??) fabric softener. You'll have to enlighten me. Speaking of laundry, Jason thinks your washing machine should be in but he hasn't heard anything yet. He will call tomorrow. If you want to borrow mine you can.
I tried Lucy to make it to 100, but only got to 42! Loved reading yours though.
Lucy~
I asked Aaron last night and he remembers the bishops we had in that ward.
They were Bishop Sackett and then Bishop Vigoren.
We may have even lived in a little house on 800 N in Provo for the 59th ward...cannot remember now.
Your list is awesome! Glad you made one :)
I love that I already new many of those things about you! I remember the milkshakes and movie nights we had, you could down that shake in a matter of minutes. Madelynn really wants to be a cheerleader when she gets in middle school, they actually start that early! So I have a changed opinion on that subject also! I read another list the other day, I am going to attempt it one of these days.
Jenny - My mom nixed the potato bar (and I am glad she did) but yes...that was serious. I like 11 because it's my birthday day and I love the look of the four ones on a digital clock.
Tara - I truly do admire your skill. Even your pep. It's contagious. And you know all big girls make fun of cheerleaders. It's just a part of our genes. We must be jealous.
Dana - I definitely remember Bishop Sackett now. That other guy I think we only had for like a month because I would never have remembered that name. We lived on 400 E and 644 N. in a little 4-plex across the street from that cool church building. How fun that we were in the same ward though. Good eyes!
Jill - yes...I'm notorious on milkshakes. Especially if they have those big straws! I wish I could savor the flavor a little longer though. I can't wait for your list.
Lou...I totally love you and you are such a fun sister. You always bring a smile to my face! See ya tomorrow:)
Lucy,
I LOVE your list. How fun! Thanks for sharing. I may have to give it a try!!
I have been lurking your blog for a few months, not sure how I surfed upon it but I think you and I could be great friends if we lived near. You have inspired me to begin my own blog. Here's to making imaginary friends!
So good to know those 100 things about you. I already knew some of those things though! I'll give it a try! Very creative.
Thank you for inspiring me to write 100 things about myself. The process took me about three hours - painfully slow at first and quite quick towards the end. It felt so good to write some of those silly things down.
I loved getting to know you through this list. Why oh why do we only have six more months together????
Hey Lucy,
Loved your list. I loved making mine, so I'm glad you passed on the idea. I'm now a blogger and this is my first comment. What fun. I've just got to leave my picture now when I comment. So much to learn.
Hello Lucy,
I'm a french mom who love to surf on the blogosphere. I found you blog by chance and you inspiring me to write 100 things about myself. I have read that you love to read french.I love to read english but I am not practicing enough to speak a good english. Perhaps we could exchange together about our lifes. Would you be agree to have one more friend ?
