I love this. It was fun to learn more about you. You bought your first house at 22?!!? Wow!

Amie said...

I'm so glad you did a list. I love them. Of course, I learned so many things about you. Your garden is impressive! We haven't succeeded in a good garden in a very long time.

I just caught up to my 4 years behind mark in scrapbooking. It's my goal this year to finally work on them consistently! Good luck.

I thought of you yesterday with the Epilepsy crop. I realized I could have gone because Jimmy had already gone on the trip I thought was going to make it impossible. Oh well, I hope it was great!!

Very interesting list, Julie! I didn't know you had epilepsy. I feel exactly the same way you do about the seasons -- it's so much easier to warm up than cool down! I cannot believe that you live on the same street where you grew up! Wow. I also cannot watch a movie in the dark without falling asleep...
