tag! you're it!

I've been tagged (for the first time!) on my blog. Tagging courtesy of TheresaJ, who makes the most incredible jewelry for sale here BTW.

Here are the rules:

1. Link to your tagger and post these rules on your blog.

2. Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.

3. Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blogs.

4. Let them know they are tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

Have fun with it. - Theresa (thanks Theresa!)

OK, so I've completed no. 1 already. Phew!

Here are my seven random and/or weird facts about myself.

1. I have marched in front of a full Highland pipe band, dressed as a big fluffy yellow bird (Busby, from the old British Telecom ads - remember him?)

2. I can dance en pointe (though I may be a little rusty now as the last time I did it was about 20 years ago)

3. Currently, I'm deaf in my right ear. I'm hoping this is temporary following a nasty bout of viral labyrinthitis nearly 4 weeks ago ..... really hoping!

4. I'm an 'older' mother of one gorgeous little boy - becoming a mum is one of the best things I've ever done in life so I'm grateful I did something about it before my ovaries fried.

5. I'm not Canadian ..... yet!

6. I am a natural redhead.

7. My arms are just long enough to reach a cow's ovaries during a rectal exam of said cow.

There - that's me in a nutshell, and don't you feel that your life is enriched in oh so many ways!

Now who shall I tag? (Do I even know 7 people to tag?)

OK howabout my little sister, an australian dessert, a Fuse Muse, one of The Five, a knitty near neighbour, a sewing artist and lastly a jewelry belle?
