I started out just a kid with a frilly dress and droopy drawers.
I loved horses
I didn't actually need to have a horse, I had an imagination.
Eventually though, I had a real one.
Did you know I played the banjo?
Quite a look huh? Scary how much my son looks like me (not the hair)
I've always loved taking photos
I was a candystriper. Logged in over 500 hours of volunteer time while I was in high school. Back when we were allowed to do a whole lot more than they pay people to do now.
I was in the first class in my county to be trained as a paramedic. One of 3 or 4 women. Although it is normal to see females in the field now, I had to work much of the time without pay because I couldn't get hired because I was a woman. I had to prove myself way more than any man ever did.
I've had the same best friend since I was 10 (47 yrs)
Several times in my life I have had glasses bigger than my face. I had long hair, and I was thin. I used to be embarrassed because I was so thin. If I had know then what I know now....
Today, for the first time, I found out from other "Whovians" how to view the last 3 episodes of Dr. Who. Episodes that won't be shown in the U.S. until next month. I went of the nerd deep end when I came across plans to build a TARDIS I sent the file to my husband and told him that he could build one for me for Christmas. I can put it in our office, and use it to store fabric.
So, now you know what I do to avoid watching news 24/7 these days.
sorry if this posted in your reader twice, I forgot to add a photo.
Have a good day! I work 2 more days then I will have some time off. I can't wait.

That was fun Teri. I had those same glasses so it gave me a laugh too.
Fun piece, Teri. I was a worse nerd than you. Way. Those glasses of the 80s--what were we thinking!
I loved horses too but never had a real one. I had one of those ones that sit on a stand and has the springs on it so you can bounce on it. I spent all my waking time on that thing.
