Getting to know you

Post: # 52711Post yugogypsy »

LOL :lol: Boots, thats a toughie.

Nickname: Sam, because my Dad wanted a boy and I was an only.

I thought I'd be a nurse when I grew up.

Self-sufficient thinking-well my parents were older and when Dad retired he grew an enormous garden and we canned and froze enough stuff to last a year.

I have a disability pension and I call my gardening working for myself because I'd eventually like to have enough to sell along with some crafts.

First thing I planted was a tree-with Dad's help (I was 3 :oops: )

First food I caught- a trout, fishing with Dad

Under the bed-besides dust bunnies :oops:

A ceiling fan, a big suitcase of clothes, two tool boxes a saw and an axe and a carpenters square and two briefcases, both mine :lol:

No mouse pad-optical mouse, frost chart for my area hanging to left of the desk gives me away as a gardener

What scares me-having NO income whatsoever before I can barter,buy a little and work my way to total self-sufficiency

First big laugh-being over tired and helping my cousin move, I had a whole package of 36 rolls of toilet paper rip open and come cascading off a tall shelf at me
I ended up :sign5: , I laughed until I :crybaby:

:lol:

My Mercedes van/new potting shed is the first thing I see out the back door

Had a bowl of soup for tea last night-homemade soup of course!

Not supporting any charities right now, the powers the SPCA have here in Canada make them not a worthwhile cause giving to.

I do support one, yes, the local cat rescue society because they helped me one time when I was stone broke :pale:

I detest washing dishes because it makes my shoulder hurt

If I were banished anywhere I'd take Tom with me as he is very inventive and very good at getting most things done

last CD was 8 years ago Chely Wright-Single White Female

last gift I don't know what it was, Christmas gift from my ex's Mum-we were already in a rocky patch and I didn't feel I should accept the gift and I mailed it back to her with a polite explanation

Most annoying thing, sit around thinking too much-well hey you guys, I've been sick for 4 yrs, weigh 95 pounds, give me a break here.

Favorite drink (alcoholic-a Caesar-clamato juice and vodka) otherwise tea

Favorite place-our old homestead 3 miles from here, it has one Gravenstein apple tree that is just right for sitting in to read a book and eat apples.

Hope that tells you something about me

Eeeks I have just re-read the bit about being banished to an island - all this time I thought it said DESERT ISLAND, so I thought Stoney would be handy for building me a house and catching my dinner. :lol:

However, it could be an idyllic island with a nice house and all mod cons in Greece, so in that case I'd take my husband!

However, it could be an idyllic island with a nice house and all mod cons in Greece, so in that case I'd take my husband!
:shock: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Only just saw this. Don't worry about the husband and the mod cons, I'm out to build a raft right now. I've never had anyone propose I play big strong hunter-gatherer builder on a desert island before!! :mrgreen:

Now, how do I break this to the Other Half....... :pale:
