One of the questions I get asked often is Why do you do this???? Well, aside from venting my spleen, exploring my thoughts, and logging our history... I happen to like crazy people like me. They're moms, teachers, writers, and Canadians.
Some of them even live in Florida. Like SwampAngel65 at A Florida Journal. SwampAngel wants to know just how crazy I am - and I'll tell you! I'm so crazy, I'm going to do her Crazy 8s meme that she tagged me with!

8 People that I think should do Crazy 8s:
Ooo - I hate this part. I never know who's done it already and I hate putting people on the spot or obligating them to do something just because I said so (well, except for Fun Monday, but people are ALWAYS breaking the rules there anyway). So if you think you want to do this, DO IT! And leave me a comment so I can go check out yours!

Fun!!
Which Kyrie do you mean?
Push Ups as punishment? Hmm...I'll have to remember that when my squirt gets a little older!
Thanks for putting up with me tagging you!
SwampAngel tagged me too. I used to have to sing Kyrie Elaison in Catholic School choir. Needless to say, I didn't hit all the notes.
There is a remake of that song by a Christian group that is pretty good. It also speaks of the song's meaningfulness, in my opinion.
That was a good meme.
We like a lot of the same books.
now I have kyrie elaison stuck in my head for the day! How great is that?
Thank you.
