6 Things

I've been tagged by Aunt Debbie to come up with six things about myself and since I'm usually a party-pooper when it comes to this kind of stuff, I decided to stop being lazy, sit down, and do it. Who knows, I might actually enjoy it and someone may learn something about me. So, here it goes.


- My favorite time of year is tied between Fall and Winter. I enjoy the cool-down with the crisp cool air and the colors of fall. I like the snow and solitude of winter. I like how it muffles the sounds of everything around. I like to heat the house with wood heat, and of course I love to ski.

- My favorite time of day is the early morning. I like to watch the sun come up. I like the quietness of the morning. No cars and no crazy kids running around the house like crazy animals.

- My favorite kind of music is bluegrass. I love to listen to a good string band, especially if its live. I really enjoy listening to the banjo and mandolin. I like good ol' rock and roll and always have, but bluegrass is my favorite.

- My passion in life is to fish. I love to fish! I like river fishing, trolling, ice fishing, ocean fishing, any kind of fishing really. If I could fish every day, I would. River fishing is my probably my favorite though.

- I always have to be doing something. I have to be out of the house by at least 10 in the morning or I get major cabin fever and I can get a little ornery. I like to be physical. I like to build things and tinker on things to keep me busy.

- I am pretty much a home body. I don't really like going to town. If I have enough stuff to do at home then I am totally content staying there. I don't really even like to eat out, but we do so Mama can have a break. If I do have to go to town I am usually out the door and to my destination when it opens. There arn't as many people and it leaves me the rest of the day to do what I want.


I tag Richard. That's all, just Richard. I know if you don't see this (Richard), Lena will, and she'll tell you to do it. So, I look forward to seeing your six very interesting facts about yourself. Thanks Aunt Debbie.

Thanks, Jake - I did learn some things about you. Remember I have a river in my back yard. Nate and Tyler caught a few good-sized fish during the summer!

I'm glad you posted this, it's always interesting to learn little facts about people. And you're right, I'll let Richard know. :)

I was kind of confused-- thinking that this was about Brooke. As soon as the fishing stuff came along I realized it was Jake!

That was fun to read! I wish I were a morning person...maybe someday!

It was fun to learn some things about you! I used to be a morning person, now I enjoy nights when the kids are in bed and no stores are open so I don't feel like I have to go be productive:-) If you're ever in town Nate and Tyler are always looking for an excuse to go fishing!

Brooke, where are your 6 things?

I like your 6 things. I do like to go out and eat - a break from making dinner, or lunch is always nice.
