7 things about me

I've been "tagged" by Mike R. Baker, so apparently I have to list 7 things about myself and then tag more people.
7 Random Facts:
1. At right is a photo of me winning a coloring contest when I was 4 in 1976. What is up with the hair?
2. I am a huge movie buff and I used to watch (almost) all the Oscar nominated films and have contests with my coworkers. (Disclaimer: I have not done this since I had kids!!!)
3. I used to be a teacher in a youth correctional facility.
4. I eat 5 hershey kisses (or other available chocolate) every day while I surf the internet looking at everyone else's illustration sites.
5. Only one piece of my art is displayed in my house - I put it up last week.
6. I have an elderly cat (age 16) and two guinea pigs. I can't wait to get a horse!
7. I am working on several possible picture book manuscripts and illustration portfolio. I hope to attend the SCBWI Carolinas conference this fall.

I am apologetic ahead of time to those that I tag - although for me it was a fun way to procrastinate doing the dishes and laundry.

Wonderful 7 things! I used to see a lot of movies too. It's amazing how having a kid will limit the movies you can see. Luckily, there are a few really good family movies now and then.

OK, girlie! I got tagged by you and I did my duty by posting 7 wonderful things about me! (check it out...I'm sure everyone will be excited! :) ) Now I need to tag SEVEN people? YIKES! I don't think I've even corresponded with 7 people! Thanks for thinking of me...it was easier to think of 7 things than I thought.
