100 Things...About Me!
I've seen this before on other blogs and thought it was really neat. So here are 100 things about me...I'll try to stay with the obscure; some you may know and some you may not!

1. I wear a size 8 1/2 shoe.
2. I only like Nike sneakers.
3. I used to only wear Tretorn sneakers.
4. For many years, I scorned socks. And I do mean scorned.
5. I had scoliosis very badly when I was a kid.
6. I have a rod in my spine that straightened that out.
7. I was 5'8" before the surgery and was 5'10" after.
8. I wear contacts.

15. And swing him on the swingset.
16. I would also bury him in the sandbox (and my mom thanks me for his ear infections!)

21. I had chicken pox when I was five.
