The Whole Story? Kinda...


Here are some facts not generally known about me

I don't mind the smell of skunk - reminds me of our summers at the cottage in Matlock, Manitoba when I was a child. It's a normal scent of the evenings.

I love to watch repeats of "The Golden Girls" because it reminds me of three ladies who were a huge impact on my life, and who I miss very much. It makes me feel for that half hour I am with them again. This was also their favourite show.

I love watching repeats of "All in the Family" for the same kind of reason as above. It reminds me of my Dad. Archie Bunker was a lot like my Dad and he loved that show. I miss him too so it makes me feel like I am with him for that short time.

Pretty much all the shows of my youth, Bewitched, Carol Burnett, I dream of Jeanie, Fantasy Island, all remind me of my youth, my family growing up. My home as a child and gives me warm fuzzies. I think its more the feeling I get from the shows than the actual shows themselves is the reason I watch.

The same can be said for my song's of the 80s. Reminds me of a time in my life of fun, carefree and youth. Friends and good times with not much for responsibilities.

I like horror movies because I Like the adrenaline rush I get. I don't like slasher movies because I don't want to be grossed out I just want to be scared. I think I like it because its a safer than jumping out of planes (although I wish I was brave enough to do this) or other feats that give you the adrenaline.

I don't really like peanut butter and Jam together. Once and I while I will do it but normally it isn't my thing.

I hate the smell of perfumes/deodorants/body sprays that are intense - do people really think they smell so bad they have to drench in this stuff?

I can't sand the smell of milk or whiskey.

I love the smell of the ocean, baking cookies and the Crabtree & Evelyn shop in Southcenter. The smell of it to me smells exactly like my Godmother Maria who I loved a lot.

I have to tell my daughter, husband, son, every day when they leave to "have a good day and I love them".

My day can't start without coffee and my day can't end without "I love you".
