Tag with a twist...it's new to me!

I used to love playing Tag - but now, I just don't like running because it makes my lower back hurt. So, when I found out that I was "tagged" by Tiffany, I thought, "What an interesting twist!" I'm just gonna copy and paste the rules from her blog:

The rules of the game:
(1) Link to the person that tagged you.
(2) Post the rules on your blog.
(3) Share six non-important things/habits/quirks about yourself.
(4) Tag six random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs.
(5) Let each random person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their website.

Six things about me:

1. When I'm angry, I clam up and pout. And I usually hold an imaginary "conversation" with the object(s) of my anger, spelling out all the reasons I'm right and they're not - unless it's one of the kids. Then it's not very imaginary.

2. I used to be addicted to milk. Really addicted. I went through genuine withdrawals for three months when I discovered that Mandy, whom I was nursing at the time, started showing signs of a milk allergy. After that first three months, I was fine. Now, I don't even like milk. I eat cold cereal with vanilla rice milk. It took some getting used to, but it's not too bad. It's better than soy milk, I think.

3. I am really blessed that the only thing that reminds me of morning sickness is the smell of a paper mill. That smell still remains indelibly impressed in my nose and it doesn't take a hormone overdose for the odor to have its usual effect on me. That's another story for another post at another time. Not right now - I just had a nice Sunday dinner and I'd like to keep it.

4. I never wear high heels. Arthritis in my feet won't allow them.

5. Tiffany wrote: "I eat cold cereal super fast because I can't stand it if it is the least bit soggy."
Neither can I. In fact, I have even considered making the child who interrupted my meal FINISH the now soggy cereal. Never actually did it, though.

6. I really love to sew, but more than once, my children have outgrown patterns I had bought for them and clothes that needed mending before the sewing and mending ever got done. I need do something about that.

(Can I write seven things about myself instead of only six?)

7. I like creative writing.

Okay, now I'm supposed to tag someone else. Since my group of blogging friends is still rather small, several of you have already been tagged before. So you don't have to go through all this again, unless you have six more "unimportant" things you can tell us about yourselves!

So, here goes: Sheri, Gail, Tami, Aubrey, CJ, and Cody. Let's get one of the dads involved here - he hasn't updated his blog in a little while!
