'You've Been Tagged'!!....UGH!

     Uh Oh!! She got me! LOL...My Blogger buddy over at Facing50WithHumour had the nerve was so kind enough to play her game with me. A game of 'TAG'!...I haven't played 'Tag' in more than 40 years! Thankfully, with this one, I don't have to worry about how far I'll end up away from home at dinnertime, or how sweaty I might get! LOL Although....... ^_^
       This game of 'Tag' does have rules though, including that everyone tagged has to answer the following questions... So here goes...
Do you think you're hot?
Yes....Yes I do!! And I don't 'think' I'm hot. I 'know' I'm hot!! :-) Didn't answer that the way you thought, did I?! ^_^ Well, the reason is because my 'hot-ness' is not what you think....I'm in my 50s!!
     ....'Hot-ness' has a whole OTHER meaning for 50 year olds!! LOL And, Yes indeedy Bob! I'm H-O-T!!!
Upload a picture or wall paper that you are using at the moment.
          Isn't it 'purdy'! When I hit it rich selling all of my celebrity crocheted pieces and fancy poetic artwork, this is what my estate for my summer home will look like!......*And then I woke up! LOL*
When was the last time you ate chicken?
Okay, Any United States Southerners, or other transplanted Georgia Girls, close your ears....*Gulp*...It's been almost a week since I had any chicken, I think!!! UNHEARD OF, I know!! Especially since I'm a chicken connoisseur! I dare say, a chicken officianado! In fact with my expert knowledge of 'The Chicken'...
      ...I practically could 'BE' a chicken!! LOL
The song/songs you listened to recently.
Okay.....Seriously?! I could be here all year trying to answer this question!! LOL Especially since being a chicken officianado is not my only officianado-ship! I'm also a music officianado!
       But, if it's 'just recently' you want, that would have to be 'Someone Like You' by Van Morrison, or this new song I just heard called 'You and I' by Wilco. {I've gotten hooked on that song!}
What were you thinking while doing this?
I was wondering how I could turn my music love and my crochet love....or said 'officianado-ships'...into a profitable business venture! LOL
         Hmmmmm.....crocheted head-phones!! ^_^ .....Oh Well, somebody else already thought of that. I'll have to keep thinking on that one! :-]
Do you have any nicknames? What are they?
Yes! I'm afraid I do....Actually, I have more than one! Some....actually one person...calls me 'Nurse' (a past career path); Hubby calls me 'Bae', 'Honey', 'Baby'...Or...
     ...'Puddles'. It's a nickname he gave me back when we were dating. {I used to cry all the time...at everything! A score that was made in basketball, a commercial or movie on T.V., a look, a...ETC...You know what I mean...UGH! I was so pathetic! LOL}
      Other nicknames are variations on my name: Dee Dee, Deb, and DeBORah...Oh Yeah, there is one more....*sigh*...The kids on the playground used to call me 'P-Pot'...NO LAUGHING!!! I had a little bladder issue as a kid...what can I say?!! O_0
Tag eight blogger friends...
Cindy of CinLynn Boutique
Shannon of Alittlesprite
Hollie of & Baby Makes Three
Patty of Art and Sew Forth
Cathy of Artsy Butterfly
Jo-anne of Blooming Lovely
Dee of Dee Dee's Vintage Retro Delights
Elisa of From Croatia....To The States
Who's listed as number one?
I really don't like this question, because I don't see people as numbers. But I know which one I communicate with and have the closest relationship with! That is without a doubt...Cindy! I guess, like the old Star Trek series...{Oh! Where did that reference come from?! O_0 I haven't seen a Star Trek episode in eons! ^_^}...Cindy would be my 'Number One'! :-)
Say something about number five?
This is easy! Cathy is a fabulous artist! She's also a fabulous photograher! But lately she's been combining the two...and sketching! And she's GOOD too!! And a great communicator.
How did you get to know number three?
I don't remember! O_0 I think I followed someone's link over to her blog. But once I saw her open way of communicating, and her wonderful photos, I was in! :-)
How about number four?
I 'think' I met her on Twitter...But then I was following her around like a puppy dog...because she makes the most adorable puppy dog and kitty cat toys!...No! I don't have a dog or a cat! LOL I just appreciate her work! Take a look in one of her Etsy shops and you'll see what I mean!!
Leave a message for number six?
Jo, I thoroughly enjoy your blog! And I love the fact that you, like me, blog every day. I look forward to popping over and seeing what you're crocheting or knitting; what you're thankful for on thursdays; what you bought at the farmer's market; and how you're surviving 2 teenage boys!! :-) Keep up the good work...and I'll be reading! :-)
Leave a lovey- dovey message for number two?
A lovey-Dovey message?!....That's not how Shannon and I 'roll'! She's my 'Yoyo Bag Pattern' Supplier and my Australian 'Tell-It-Like-It-Is' girl...Okay, I love her. You dragged it out of me!! LOL
Do number seven and number eight have similarities?
Well, let's see...they both have children, they both like to travel, they both cook nice goodies on occasion, and they both love their friends. One likes exploring old things, while the other is exploring new things! :-) ...And of course, they both have ME in common! ^_^
 By  the way - everyone mentioned above:
“TAG - YOU’RE IT!” ^_^
       Before I leave my poem today, I want to thank all of the shop owners above for the use of their Etsy shop items. They're all things that are for sale. You can click on the photos to take you to their shops...Please go by and take a look!!


Do You Play?!

I had some 'Play Time' in my youth,
back when my hips could take the heat.
I couldn't wait to find someone
that I could race, chase down, or beat!

How many times did I 'Hopscotch',
play some marbles, skip a rock?
And a game of 'Tag' could go
until you couldn't see the clock!

All my games were very active.
So much energy, people. WOW?!
But things have changed. It's different,
because I'm so much older now!

I still have Play Time at my age,
but the games are slow and rare.
I like board games, playing cards,
things you do right from your chair.

The games can't be too long.
I'll fall asleep! I'm kind of nod-dy.
And I have to use my mind.
No running round now with this body.

Even so, I have to play!
It's my excuse to have a laugh.
I just have to keep it slow.
Don't want a charlie-horse in my calf!
