Melissa over at Melissa’s Place tagged me to write 8 things about me… so here goes.
The Rules:
Each person posts the rules before their list, then they list 8 things about themselves. At the end of the post, that person tags and links to 8 other people and then visits those peoples’ sites and comments letting them know that they have been tagged, and to come read the post, so they know what they have to do.
I won’t tag anyone. But if you do this list please leave me a comment with a link to your list or leave a trackback! 
Here goes… 8 things about me.
1. I’m the baby of the family and my sister *my only sibling* is 12 years older than me. I’m 53 so that makes her 65.
2. I got married 2 days after graduating high school *NO.. I didn’t have to get married.
3. I smoke, but I don’t drink.
4. I love to shop… online.
5. I’m quiet and shy and it takes awhile to warm up to people. When I do.. you can’t shut me up! LOL
6. I lived in Texas for a year.
7. I had 2 back surgeries. The first one was for a herniated disk, it was repaired. The second was because that same disk re-herniated and I ended up having a spinal fusion surgery. I still have some problems but it’s much better than it was.
8. I was molested as a child .. twice. Read it here.
That’s it! This was harder than I expected it to be! 
I am going to be doing this one, too, but I am not sure when.
I was molested as a child, too.
Shelli: Let me know when you do it.
It sucks to go through that.. It’s affected me all of my life.
I always like to read things about other people. It makes it seem like I know them a bit better. Ps. I’m a smoker too, but also don’t drink so we have something in common.
Kim: This type of post makes a person seem more real
