Hi,
My first launch into the world of personal blogging-- first I am dyslexic so laugh all you like at the blunders I will no doubt make, but forgive my spelling transgressions--I just want an unfettered spelling experience here.
Naming our blogs
I have a friend who
prefers her fantasy life and another whose
life needs a primer--well named I thought. How to name my blog...
I am the only girl in a family of six siblings
I am the one who bleeds, who is too sensitive,
And my life was shaped by nursery rhythms-
"There was a girl who had a curl right in the middle of her forehead and when she was good she was very very good and when she was bad she was horrid..."
which was usually followed by
"Sugar and spice and everything nice that's what little girls are made of.."
And worst of all
"humpty dumpty sat on a wall, humpty dumpty had a great fall, and all the kings horses and all the kings men couldn't put humpty together again"
from this I play the part of a "nice girl" with a devilish strike who fears falling apart! I am fascinated with the poems, stories, family lore that shape who we are and how we behave..do share..
Shaped my career-BOOKS: little women (all of them) Doctor Dolittle (all of them) Secret Garden
Shaped my love life--MULTIMEDIA: looking for Mr. Goodbar, Story of O, The letters of John and Abigail Adams, & Internet relationship advice.
Shaped my out look on life-- MOVIES: Gone with the Wind, The Russians are Coming and Catch 22
Shaped my personal philosophy of life-- SONGS: We are but dust in the wind and I am just a poor wayfaring stranger
Shaped my spirit and dented my soul: RELATIONSHIPS & LABELS: Five brothers; If a wife is a widow-what is a girl who loses her dad? (Father died age 49 9/11/1969); "a little ray of sunshine" "Beaver McFever" "The Bev""The one and only""C...Logic" "The itinerant"
