I’m not a very keen meme person & tend to gasp if I hear I’ve been tagged…never easy to spill some beans on myself & kinda bare my soul to the world. Having said that, was tagged by Chreisi for a 6 word memoir & by Ivy for a 30 question meme…almost fainted!! 36 beans to spill on silly ole me….but these were fun memes!
Chreisi @ Almond Corner tagged me for a ‘6 Word Memoir’, where you describe yourself using only 6 words. Sorry Chreisi, I’m extremely sorry for being this long overdue, so with no further delay, shall try bare my soul a bit in 6 words, & then attempt to unravel some more in the next 30 questions…
PHEW…here I go:
Creative…give me any empty surface, cake, cookie, paper, cloth; I’ll fill it. I love decorating, craft, painting.
Impatient…wish I wasn’t, especially with kids in the kitchen.
Multitasker…or virtual octopus; usually trying to kill myself trying to achieve more than possible!!
Rational…on most days…
& Exasperating…on others!! I need logical reasoning for anything & everything.
Efficient…*blush*…that I like to believe!!
Am currently fascinated by a little plant growing in the crook of our tree. We planted this tree 9 years ago around when our son was born…I like this tree a lot. Now it’s got this cute little seedling taking shape inside it!! Quaint!!I have also just been tagged for another meme by Ivy @ Kopiaste, my dear Greek friend & I’m delighted to say that this tagging is fairly recent. (Note, the efficiency fits in quite well here). Thanks for tagging me and for once I can say I’m not late…
