I made the papers...

when I was born. On accounta I was the New Years baby, even if it was many days later. I was still the first baby born for the tiny town I'm orginally from and I suppose I will always be the first for that year. Hey that means I made history without even trying!

My mother surely loved summers, the sunshine and warmth they brought along with the carefree feelings…well not really carefree but barefooted at the very least. I bring this up because Emma Sometimes said it well in her recent post and I tended to agree with the “wombvibes”. But after completing this meme, maybe there is something to this Birth Month business. See what you think.

JANUARY:

Stubborn and hard-hearted: Hey it’s in my genes ya know- long line of red headed Irish {not that I have red hair} and they said “mountain be moved” and I said “I’m not a mountain!”

Ambitious and serious: Not really too ambitious, I still don’t know what I want to be when I grow up. Seriously it's true.

Loves to teach and be taught: I never really thought of it but I suppose this is true. Ask my kids how many times I repeat what they are supposed to do. It's a wander I have not learned that teenagers don’t have ears.

Always looking at people's flaws and weaknesses: I can’t help it if your butt is too broad and you have chosen not to do anything about it! Heck look at me, what 40 pounds overweight, eww lookie someone just brought in a bag of cookies—back in a minute.

Likes to criticize: Well if they would just listen to me they would know how to load the dishwasher already! But I really don’t like to say so.

Hardworking and productive: Why yes I am, give me a lot (piece of property) to clear and I’ll have heat stroke before I quit. Not to mention that I did complete this meme-now that's productive!

Smart, neat and organized: Oh yes, I am very smart. {arsed} Neat too, really, I have to do the dishes and clean the kitchen before I cook. I heard of being organized but tend to only do that when I can’t get to the other side of the room. If you know what I mean?

Sensitive and has deep thoughts: OMG another Yes answer-if I think really hard it kinda hurts.

Knows how to make others happy: Yeah but why bother? Is a smile or a bit of laughter really worth it? Lets ask Emma

Quiet unless excited or tensed: Maybe this is why I don’t post often I’m not too excited or stressed out or whatever. Now when I get freaked out and all nervous like, I’d talk your legs and arms off so you couldn’t run away or flag down the police for help.

Rather reserved: I have been told that I was a bit shy and quiet in my dreams. NOT! I laugh too loud and if you want the honest to goodness truth about how you look in that outfit then I’m your woman, otherwise don’t ask. And I don't have any qualms about joining a conversation already in progress

Highly attentive: What?

Resistant to illnesses but prone to colds: No don’t get colds. I was kinda sickly when a young’in but I do pretty well as an almost old’in.

Romantic but has difficulties expressing love: I love the idea of romance but it seldom works out the way I have it planned in my head. I suppose I have organization issues.

Loves children: of course I do. I was cub scout leader for 6 years (11 boys), I have 7 children, 9 grand children who I love to feed candy to and then 'em send home.

Loyal: I have been accused of this.

Has great social abilities yet easily jealous: Sorta more like a social mosquito and I only get upset when I see some crazy female squeezing or chatting up my beloved or if I smell some one else on him and Yes I do smell him daily sometimes more then twice a day. But not the pits-NEVER the pits!

Very stubborn and money cautious: Stubborn-with spending money on myself.

I tagged myself (see hard worker above and thought it would make Emma Sometimes happy also see above) and I leave you to your own devices if you so desire to “self tag” please do so and be sure to let me know. The rules of play are:

1. Mention the person who tagged you and create a link back to them.
2. Copy-paste the traits for all the twelve months.
3. Pick your month of birth.
4. Highlight the traits that apply to you.
5. Tag 12 people and let them know by visiting their blogs and leaving acomment for them.
6. Let the person who tagged you know when you've done it!
