5 Random Facts About Me

Ringgold, Virginia
July 30, 2017 3:19pm CST
I've seen a few MyLotters do posts where they list facts about themselves. I enjoy reading these posts and thought it'd be fun to do one myself. For this one, I tried to come up with facts I've never mentioned before. So here are 5 things you may not know about me. 1. One of my dreams was to be a writer for soap operas. 2. I have an enormous sweet tooth. Cookies, cakes, brownies, and candies; I'll eat just about any dessert. 3. Tweety Bird is one of my favorite cartoon characters. 4. Traveling is the #1 item on my bucket list. My top 3 destinations are Hawaii, California, and New York. 5. I have a huge fear of snakes. It's so bad, I even get scared if I see a picture of one.

@dramagirl26 Ugh, where we used to live I saw one about 3 feet away and I ran as fast as I could back inside!

@LovingMyBabies We live near woods and every summer they'd come out, but luckily I haven't seen one in years.

I hear you on the sweet tooth! Nothing is safe from me when I am stressed out. And snakes. I hate snakes.

I've been to California and New York but will never go to Hawaii. I'm too old now and it's too far away from Central Europe.

@dramagirl26 Both were *very* impressive. I'm glad we went there. We rented a car in San Francisco and drove south to Los Angeles with a detour to Las Vegas.

It's always fun learning more about people! I used to be deathly afraid of snakes, but I worked really hard to overcome that fear. I still don't like them, but at least I can tolerate them and not freak out when I see one!

@moffittjc A lot of people on here are afraid of snakes. If I see one, I'll go in the opposite direction, but I don't freak out that bad.

@dramagirl26 she is mother nature ( she didn't get that from me) she took me for walks and pointed out different snakes in here country setting and how they behave and told me about them, there were no dangerous in her area or mine so that was a lesson. She had a Black Rat Snake in her house once and just waited for it to leave through the walls - she found it had come down from the attic through the wall and landed in her compost pail under her sink. I was visiting and she locked the the door so the snake could not get into the house - eventually it left. She sent this video to me - the snake visited while they were burning old wood on a cold day and the snake liked the warmth, watch it, don't be afraid
Years ago when my daughter moved to boonies of Ontario she became acquainted with an endangered species of snakes called the Black Rat Snake. In her first...

@dramagirl26 I am terrified of snakes. There was a teacher at our school who had a snake in a tank in her room. I never went into her classroom.

@HazySue I couldn't blame you. Even though it's in a tank, I would still be afraid of it.
