Tagged By Caution Flag

A member of a flag family, "caution", of The Human Race 600 blog has tagged me. Years ago, being involved in games of "tag" at recess was practically an everyday occurrence. At least in that version, you could see when the "it" person was coming your way!
*******
Anyhow, go visit caution's blog at the above link........she has a gift for very humorous writing!! And, I think her idea of a family of racing flags is clever! Someday, I may be able to forgive her for flagging......er, tagging me.......!

Congrats Jeannelle, memed and awarded in one week! Your blog is really catching on. I'm very happy for you! Take care.

Hi, Sherry!

No, not really, for a meme is more like torture, in my opinion!!

Ruth Hull Chatlien said...

I love, love, love your snacks.

Your five random things were quite interesting.

I've done a version of this meme so I rejecting the tag--respectfully.

Judy said...

My favorite is the things you'd want if you were a billionaire...you are so wise!!!!!

Jeannelle said...

Ruth,

Ok, randomly and respectfully, I'll let you off the meme hook this time!!

Hi, Judy!

Oh, but I'm sure those would be your answers, too! What good would a billion dollars be without them!?

Caution/Lisa said...

Torture, Jeannelle?? Torture?? I love tags and memes! How else would I know that you were a homecoming queen and a detassler? Now I wish you would write posts about those things. It would, afterall, be easier than googling the word detassler to figure out what that is.

P.S. Thanks for playing!
P.P.S. I moved my blog (sorry)

Hi, caution.....the instigator of this post!!

Honestly, I've never even thought of blogging about detassling or the fluky, freakish fact that I was a Homecoming Queen.....but, maybe I will.

And hey.....you moved to Blogspot!? I thought people always moved out of there to greener pastures....at least that's how it sounds sometimes. I will change the link on this post and my blog list to reflect your move!!

Cahya said...

Your blog is really very good.
Please give your advice to my blog.
Thanks and have a nice day.

Hi, cahya!

Thank you for visiting here!!

You are from a part of the world I know little about. Your blog would be a great place for you to tell others about your homeland and your life!
