5 Things You May Not Know About Me

 Due to the popularity of  my "Five on Friday",
I'm expanding it today to share
"5 Things You May Not Know About Me!"
Of course, family and friends IRL may already know these 
interesting tidbits but, 
please play along!  :)

1.  No Left Turns.  I hate to make left turns!  Yes, it's true I will go out of
my way and make 4 or 5 or more right turns in order to avoid a 
left turn!




2.  Aerobic Mowing?  In years past (not mowing time here yet),
I have raced across the lawn calling it "Aerobic Mowing!"
In addition, every time I mow the yard, I go a different
direction and sometimes when I want to be really adventurous, I go diagonal!



3.  I Have a Twin.  Most of you probably know, I have a twin sister!
But, did you know that she is the older twin?   Yes, it's true and
as a result her name ALWAYS came first on every 
birthday cake!  
I am not exaggerating - every single cake
said, "Happy Birthday Judy and Janet!"
I tried sneaking in a cake giving myself top billing one year
and, she brought her own cake with . . . 
you guessed it - her name first!
Do I resent never getting top billing??????
Noooooo, not much!


Brother Tom with me and Judy!

4.  Spanx and Me.  Who likes Spanx???  
Raising my hand slowly.
I like what it holds in, but it's not always the most comfy
undergarment!
However, I'm old enough to remember GIRDLES - 
and, believe me,
Spanx is a huge improvement!



5.  Always Hair Issues.  If you've been reading for any
amount of time, you know I have issues with my hair - 
especially in the spring, summer and fall.
Humidity is not my friend!
I have tried straightening it, Brazilian blowouts, flat irons
and every potion and lotion -- it still gets very big and frizzy
just like Monica's!
Any and all advice on taming the beast is appreciated!



Stay tuned for another edition of "5 Things" coming soon!

LOVED this post!!! I might do one myself! I did know that you were a twin, but every time you mention it I hear myself saying, "Oh, I forgot that!" Ha! The hair- you and me both, sister!!! Winter is the only time I like my hair!!! Okay, the left turns kind of made me laugh- do you know why? When did that start happening? I will go out of my way to avoid sitting in traffic, or moving slowly, but that's about it. :)
