It has been quite a while since I've posted anything. Not much has been going on really other than work, work and more work. So with that, I really have not had anything too exciting to post. I am starting another little scrapbook project...
Listography. Another approach to a biography utilizing short lists of random things to tell others a little bit about yourself. There's actually a website, and books/journals, that give ideas on different topics for creating these lists (
www.listography.com) So on top of doing Project Life, I am going to add this to the
list.
Here's the start to my listography:
Memories from Childhood
Living on a farm the first 7 years of my life with cattle, chickens and pigs (Can you say: pee-you?)
Using the corn crib topper as a fort (until it was installed).
Collecting eggs and having my legs pecked to death in the process by the crazy chickens.
Going to Logan's Landing to feed the swans and ducks with my grandma and mom.
My Raggedy Ann and Andy swimming pool.
Being chased through the cornfield by the 2 neighbor dogs all the way from great grandma's and grandpa's and emerging covered head-to-toe with sand burrs.
Having huge veggie gardens (something I miss a lot).
Building forts with my brother and making "mushroom stew." (and no, we never ate it).
Spending many summer days/nights at my aunt's and uncle's on Spider Lake.
Being hit by a fire rescue truck after being dropped off for school. A bus driver waved an okay for me cross the street in front of the school and Whack!. Smacked by a fire rescue truck driven by Mr. Pickard. All for the entire school population to see. If my mom hadn't yelled at me to stop, he would have literally run me over. Instead, just the corner and driver's side panel hit me.
So that is the start to my listography. Just odds and ends about me.
Feeding the swans at Logan's Landing.
Not sure I would ever get that close to one now.
