****************************************

So fun to read what I wrote almost 4 years ago! If you've known me long, you can tell by this list that I am a very honest person! LOL I ♥ that.

The only discrepancy I noticed was #60. That # should have been around 16 or 17, I think. I've been on that medication for close to (or over) 20 years.

This post received some very funny comments - I'll have to find & post those at a later time.

So - did you find any of these things interesting? Ü

I loved reading these about you!! It took me four hours to come up with ten things about myself a couple of weeks ago...it would probably take me days or weeks to do 100!!

101.) I am absolutely, positively terrified that my children will grow up hating me. That is my greatest fear!

This too is one of my greatest fears and it's taken me almost five years to realize that my bad relationship with my parents doesn't define the one I will have with my children. Just had to share, I read this and didn't feel so alone.
