You might not have known...
 
Lets share a few details we haven't shared before... in this thread, post some little known or UNknown fact about yourself for the rest of us to get to know you better.



You might not have known... I used to work as an EMT and was able to save a couple of lives in the process!

My husband is a farmer and I help out by driving the tractor and combine when he's short-handed. I didn't think that I would ever drive the combine. There's so many buttons and levers that it would be nice to have a third hand!!!!

You might not have known that I majored in Agricultural Business & Economics in college. So, DianaB, I know a lot of the business of farming!!!!!! :p :p :p

You might not have known that my husband is almost done with medical school. He wants to go into Ophthalmology and specialize in Retina surgery and eye trauma surgery. That is where all our student loans have come from! EEK!

When I worked at Frito Lay, I did most every job, except for the kitchen area!

My favorites were running the cranes and backing the semi-trailers to the docks.

Tink, you sound like me. I love Christmas and all the decorations, but it takes so long and my house just turns into one big mess in the process. The tree is up and the decorating's started. In the meantime boxes of ornaments are everywhere and probably will be until I get the tree finished. (I collect ornaments and I have a LOT of them!!)

I'm an intelligent blonde =P

I declared majors in English, Biology, and History my freshman year of college, I'm now a Political Science major

I have a great respect and love for firefighters, I have for years, and I was floored when I found out that the guy I was crushing on when I first moved away for college is a firefighter. We've been dating for 3 and 1/2 months now :D

I read 4 or 5 books a week and can spell anything! When I went back to school after my divorce from my first husband, I had a smart ass teacher who wanted to call out a long list of words to see if I could spell before I started her class. I told her that if she could pronounce it, I could spell it:)

I can't eat spaghetti unless I have dill pickles with it!

I sang in a band when I was married to my first husband :p

I married my first husband twice!:eek:

I eloped at 16 :confused:

I won a prize for poetry a couple of years ago.

Marilyn 12-07-2006 04:35 AM

Let's see......It's hard to think of anything interesting.

I was married 11 years before having children.

In my work, I've climbed a lot of equipment in petrochemical plants. I've been on top of polyethylene reactors. Quite a climb, but quite a view as well. It's very flat around here, so when you climb high you can see for miles. I've also been inside a boiler drum (that's where, when it's running, all the hot water is that is turning into steam.)

Grew up on a farm, with no brothers, so can do lots of farm stuff. Also helped my mom, so can take a chicken from the yard to the table.

Changed majors twice before graduating...Biology to Home Economics to Mechanical Engineering.

Janet 12-07-2006 06:13 AM

You all have such interesting lives.....man....mine sucks!!!! LOL

I haven't done anything really interesting. I'm gonna have to get out more, that's all there is to it!!! Where's my coat and where's the door?????

RLC12345678 12-07-2006 07:27 AM

Let's see............I think there's a lot more stuff that you might not have known about me! :p :p :p Let me think :rolleyes:

Oh this is interesting I guess.....

I interned at the United States Senate in Washington D.C. during the summer of 2004. It was very interesting meeting U.S. Senators like Elizabeth Dole, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, John Edwards, Joe Liberman, ect. in person and seeing what they are really like! :p :p :p

Ponyup 12-07-2006 07:48 AM

Here I go

I changed my major six times in school before ending up in management.

I love math

I took singing lessons as a kid

I showed quarter horses on the national level all through high school & part of college

My mom (yes my mom) raises horses & farms near 400 acres; my dad owns the company I work for.

Governor Bowen (if you are from Indiana you probably know who this is) is from my home town & delivered my mom. When he was running for office my mom & some of her friends had shirts that said I'm a Bowen Baby.
