Life is mysterious, fascinating, intriguing. Here my words nibble around the edges of it as the mood takes me.

Unknown Stuff
Picking up the on the tag from Lynette, here are my six heretofore unknown facts. I don't know about the rest of you taggees, but I battled to find stuff to share.
This is what I settled for:
1. I wake up in a good mood.
2. I battle to know what my role should be in the lives of my adult married sons.
3. I spent 8 months touring Europe with relatives after I finished school (at their expense!). I have therefore first hand knowledge that youth is wasted on the young. One might also say: "tours through Europe are wasted on the young."
4. I avoid driving to the airport. I get lost there and in big malls. Blush
5. Most of my friends are years younger than I am. I think that's strange - but I like it.
6. I once made a primary school teacher cry - she had been bullying one of my sons. I went straight from gardening - dirty hands, knees and all - to her flat. And told her that I wasn't happy with her treatment of my boy.
I invite anyone who feels like it to play along - its very fun to rack your brains for things that may not have popped in in the normal run of posting.
So - jump right in, and play too.

Lynette was clever to start this...
Ohhh you can make a teacher cry! I AM impressed. I have done much of the same with teachers that treated my children unfairly.
Loved reading more about you.
wahahaha. can just imagine you making that poor teacher cry! ;-) And let me tell you i can imagine ME making a teacher cry is she/he messes with my kids too! *roar*
I am very happy to say that none of these were unknown to me...but that cos I know you very very well....;-)
@ all of you -
I wonder what it is that has you all fascinated with the idea of my making the teacher cry. . .
I didn't hurt her, or hit her, hey.
I just asked her how she could treat a young boy so unfairly (she victimised him because he couldn't understand Afrikaans)
@ Mel - yes, you do. You both do. Actually I really like that you do, now I come to think of it.
Specially since you both still like me in spite of knowing me that well *g*
