I'VE BEEN TAGGED.

Thanks to all my readers for the really wonderful comments I got on my last post. My wife read most of them, and even if she doesn't mention it, I am sure she feels a mite less intimidated by the sharp end of a camera. So thanks to every one who left comments, and those who haven't yet, please visit my previous post and feel free to comment.

I have been tagged by a lovely lady, Tayebug of Living Happy & Healthy 365 blog.

Now when I opened her blog this morning my eye caught a post on a subject that I have posted about in the past. Please spare a moment and read this post titled 8 Reasons to start loving your body today. I think more girls should follow her advice on confidence and being sexy. So true. But do not stop at this post, she has a blog with many interesting angles and corners, from food to fashion. So please, read them all!

Now my challenge is the following, I have to answer the following questions:

1. You have three wishes, what would they be?

Dangerous one, I don't only have three wishes, I have like 300, but my first wish is to always be able to help myself to and from the loo until I die. No diapers or bed pans....

No, make that the second wish, my first wish, and this in in the Lord's Hands not mine, to not loose one of my kids to death or serious trauma before I die.

Third one, to have the wisdom and knowledge to always give more than I receive.

2. What cosmetic piece of work would you have done (or have had done)?

None so far, and I seriously don't think any cosmetic piece of work (unless it is a miracle) is gonna make a difference to my ugly old frame...haha.... and no, I used to be a beautiful little boy, (that is what everybody says ok!) only I didn't stay that way... :-) hard work and bumpy roads, that is what got me to where I am today... But, take note, I am reasonably healthy, and I feel good for my age, so I am grateful for what I have.

3. What is your must have fashion item?

I don't have a must have fashion item, my wife has enough for the both of us. :)
I forgot, I have a pair of Ray Ban sunglasses with prescription lenses, without them I cannot drive, but that is not by choice, I might add.

4. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?

Any exotic island, with dive spots with up to 50 meter viz... so I can scuba dive and enjoy dolphins up close, and have cocktails with my lovely wife on a deck overlooking the clear water, colorful reefs, and dolphins playing in the surf. Yeah, dream on....

5. What is the craziest thing you've ever done?

Hehe, if I tell you I'd have to kill you.... but second craziest thing, I stole my father's motorbike when I was only 12 years old and raced up and down the street with it. Maybe that was the stupidest thing, but is there a difference?

6. Who is your favorite musical artist at the moment?

Shania Twain and Celine Dion share first place on my list.

7. What was the last movie you watched?

In a cinema, She is out of my league, and I have to add, it is not the kind of movie I normally watch, but I really enjoyed it tremendously. (Maybe because it kinda reminds me a little of myself, please take note, I said a little, difference being, I am not a nerd.... lol,)
Last night we watched Mr Bean on dvd, a great laugh.

8. Passion or Quiet Happiness?

I like a low profile, so I guess quiet happiness. On second thoughts, if with my wife, I might change my mind... :) who will not?

I reckon that is it, now I am kinda lazy and it has taken me two days to get this post done, so I am going to tag only two other people, if I may bend the rules some, so I thought it wise to tag Dena of Pretty Little Things, and Heidi of Farm Girl.

Let's keep the questions the same, I guess they are very interesting, would love to hear what they have to say.

Thanks Tayebug for tagging me, I am honored, and I do apologize for taking that long to post, but I have been pretty busy and Jesse had his tonsils removed on Friday, so life has been pretty hectic. Back to normal now.

I have been sent this video, and seeing that it is really damn funny, I want to share it with you. I would however advise, do not, and I repeat, do not try this at home. I know my wife would kill me slowly if I ever tried this with her.
Enjoy.



I reckon that is it, enjoy the rest of your weekend, and take care.

I'VE BEEN TAGGED!

First time ever! I was tagged by the lovely Joelyne of the sydney girl blogspot Now this was a rather big surprise, so you will understand if I say I was speechless. Not for long however, as I am supposed to give you 10 random facts about me. Tough one...

But here they are, 10 random facts about me:

1. I am sometimes, and only sometimes, a very short tempered person and will jump the gun before giving it proper thought, yeah, I know, I am working on it. In the same breath, I do not hold grudges, I will forgive you soon enough....

2. I love my family, and if harmed in any way, it can easily become a killing matter. In this instance forgiving will take a mite longer, maybe only after I've killed the person who harmed them, will I be able to forgive... :-)

3. I am a morning person, I am up every morning at 5, sometimes even earlier, when everything is quiet in the house, so I can work on my blog. And, I am not a moody person, I wake up in a good mood every day, but do not pee me off first thing in the morning, or make me look for something I cannot find, that changes everything.

4. Yes you guessed it, I like blogging, no I am not addicted to it, but close...

5. I HATE flying!! With a passion, I am scared of heights...

6. I love airplanes, and no I am not contradicting myself, I love planes as long as I can admire them from a distance, I have no desire to fly in them. The same goes for a pair of well shaped legs, I love to admire them from a distance, but I have no desire to touch them, unless said legs belong to my wife of course.. :-)

7. I have no fear for a dentist, but I hate confined spaces, or small, crowded rooms.

8. I love to tease, I love open spaces, I love the sea, I love rain, I love forests and wild animals.

9. Do not stick your finger in my belly button, I hate it almost as much as flying. It is an extremely sensitive spot....and subject for that matter.

10. I love old, classic western movies, or musicals, not going to mention any names, there are way too many.

Well, I guess you know me much better now that I have opened my heart and shared my best kept secrets with you...

I have to tag some ladies now, so here are the names of the ones I would like to tag.

Marie of Bound and Determined,
D J Tammy of Anything Under the Sun.
The Fairy of The Evil Shoe Fairy
Stilettolover of Hottest heels blog
Maxi of Ovah' Coffee
Dorothy of Womensselfesteem.com

Well, I guess that is enough.

A huge thank you to Joelyne for tagging me, I am honored. If you read this, please take the time to visit Joelyne and all the tagged people, I am convinced they'll be only too happy to entertain you, or to read your comments.
Thanks.
