My friend Sarah has blog tagged me

www.blinkdcblog.blogspot.com

It means I have to tell 8 things about myself and then pass this on to some of my unsuspecting friends. I think I'm going to tag a few friends so Deb, Kim and Susie, watch out!!!

1. I have no favorite color, it's all about the mood I'm in, I do however have a favorite color combination which is orange, purple and Yellow, so pretty...

2. I'm half Spanish and half Dutch, my father imigrated to this country back in the 5o's, pretty much met my mother soon after getting off of the boat (Mom lived in Manhatten) and they were married that year. The story goes that Mom was sick with a sore throat so her aunt went out to get her ice cream, there she met this handsome Dutch man and brought him home to meet my Mom. Can you imagine doing that these days?  Soonn after they were married and had me 9 years into the marriage. I can not speak Dutch or Spanish even though both of my parents are fluent in their respective languages.

3. Glass is just a hobby and it gives me my sanity, in real life I'm a techy geek. I'm a Sr Principal Programming Analyst HA!! I don't even know any programming languages (just a little SQL) but I can write a mean report and I do know my product called Cognos very well.

4. In my past career I was a dog groomer, still love the little woofles and usually groom my little guy Boo. I'm too cheap to pay and most people never do him exactly the way I want him done.

5. Back in the 80's I wore spiked hair in a sort of mullet. I had a spandex unitard too and wore that out dancing with a double wrapped grommet belt and paint splashed wrap around glasses, I was hot!!  :-)

6. My first artistic love was photography, I still do love it, but in High School all I wanted to be was a photographer. Spent many hours in the dark room developing in black and white, it was great fun.

7. I work as a hotlihne volunteer for the Wildlife Rescue league, I do love helping animals. I truly believe that we owe something back to them for taking most of their habitat.  

8. My life started off kind of rough, and it's gotten better and better. With that I've learned that it's important to be responsible for your own happiness. Circumstance can make things better or worse, we need to make decisions to surround ourselves in the kind of life that we desire, but all important is to roll with what you get. You really never know where anything will take you.
