***If it is Tuesday, it is Blog Hop time and this one will be fun. It’s hard to say what you don’t know about me, because some of you know me well, but I’ll try to think of odd things.
First, you probably don’t know that I love all creatures great and small - except bees, wasps, and hornets. I have been known to carry deadly spiders, under a cup, and re-locate them elsewhere. But a wee bee will make me emit fear-enzymes sure to draw a whole swarm to me. As a kid, I was stung, two different times, once by a wasp and once by a bee. My fear is irrational, but it’s there.
A second thing you might not know about me is that I am a compulsive corrector. I cannot help correcting things. It can be words (as in proof-reading) or life problems. Now, that’s pretty arrogant of me, I guess. It makes me appear to think I know how to fix everything, but it’s mostly a nurturing urge. I could never carry a child past 8 weeks, so I have this urge to mother any and all. I do try to curb the tendency because it sure gets on some people’s nerves (sigh).
The third thing is that I love puns. I have always loved words and it follows that I love word play. Related to that, I love really weird rhyming combo’s. Growing up in the 40s, I loved how Ogden Nash rhymed the most unlikely words and had fun with it. I made people groan when I tried to do the same.

Great List, I loved reading your post.
Doin the blog hop and just had to say..
HELLO from S.C! :)
Nice blog and list! Just a blog hoppin' Have a great day!
I actually relocated a bee the other day. Somehow, when I came in from outside, a little baby honeybee came in with me. My cat found it wandering around on one of my tennis shoes. So I got a newly washed glass jar with the lid, captured it and brought it outside to my lilac bush. My cat wasn't happy but it made my day. :)

I can relate to #2 - I have a strong sense of justice and that things are right. (not many people like to be corrected though, lol)
#3, well that's punny. :-)
I love your post! I am WAY Behind on this blog hop. I like your idea of covering the 25 before and after your own. It's what I will shoot for next week (and also anyone that comments me)!
