10 Cool and Freaky Things

The picture is of my mom with me and my sisters Catherine (baby) and Theresa (short hair). I’m the one year old crying.

Thanks to Heather from Comparative Childhood for the Honest Scrap award. So here are 10 things you might not know about me (the cool stuff):
1. I worked as a sales associate in Prams and Nursery furniture at Harrods in London, England.
2. I studied fashion design in Toronto.
3. I was trapped in Hampton Court Palace after closing time with my sister–we’d wandered back looking for her glasses–it was great, the ground’s keeper told us real ghost stories!
4. I hitchhiked to Innuvik, NWT with a trucker.
5. I nearly drowned on the Yukon River twice–one Jeep accident and one Hovercraft accident.
6. Came face to face with a Grizzly bear while hiking in Glacier National Park.
7.A guy from a Beatle Revival band asked me to marry him on a flight across Canada (we met on the flight).
8.I spent the first five years of my life in and out of hospitals.
9. I climbed to the top of the Yucatan pyramids in Mexico, the leaning tower of Pisa in Italy, and the Eiffel tower in Paris.
10. I attended 3 different high schools in three different provinces.
*And I award this award to any bloggers who happen  upon my blog–sorry, I’ve never been one to send things on!
