some stuff about me`

When Phyllis was 5 I got her the book ‘all about me’ by Dr. Seuss. Here are my answers (some of them!) since today is my birthday. Turned 34. It’s 3 birthdays more than my mom got, never really thought I’d live this long. But I have a beautiful daughter who makes me want to live until she’s 100! I have a God who loves me like crazy and I am excited about the coming year’s wondrous possibilities. That’s the one good thing about a birthday on New Year’s Day; you start the year completely new.

My name is Margie
I don’t care if you like my name or not
That’s my name and it’s the only one I’ve got!

I have all my teeth except those 4 pesky wise ones.

I have freckles…

My birthday is January 1
I will have 34 candles
If you really want to give me a birthday present, here is what I want most: a new pair of walking shoes (but if it costs too much, forget it).
I go to school by: (I finished!!)
My favorite teacher’s name is: Bacile, she was my 2nd grade teacher, and I loved Mr. Lawara who taught science in 8th grade and helped me with math in 9th grade.

I am a good student.

Sometimes I get mad at people
My longest walk was 6 miles
My longest bike ride was 10 miles
My longest car ride was 6 hours
My longest plane ride was 4 hours
My longest fish I caught about 14 inches
My longest swim who knows I could swim forever!
I collect turtles and precious moments

My favorite flower are Daisies
My favorite sport is football but not on my birthday
I sing in the bathtub
I am not a great whistler
I hum better than I whistle
My favorite musical instrument is the drums
I am pretty neat
I talk in my sleep
I get up at 6 AM or so
I don’t make funny noises
When I grow up I want to be the office manager of Metro or own my own restaurant or be a speaker!

This was all about me!

I love that list!
What's a Roma salad? I think I need one.

Roma salad is the salad at my fave rest in Eastern Market (Roma's)- lettuce, tomatoes, eggs, chic peas, peppers, vinegar and oil, spices... and sometimes with Chicken, and it's SUPER yummy!
