Seven Things...

I’ve been tagged! (Ta lovely husband :-p)

1. Seven things to do before I die
2. Seven things I cannot do
3. Seven things that attract me to my spouse
4. Seven things I say most often
5. Seven books (or series) I love
6. Seven movies I watch over and over again (or would watch over and over if I had the time)
7. Seven people I want to join in, too

OK – this takes a little thinking about:

Seven things to do before I die:

1. Learn to crochet.
2. Climb Scafell Pike.
3. Get (and maintain!) a thoroughly clean and tidy house.
4. See my grandchildren.
5. Conquer my fear of big open spaces.
6. Learn to be more patient.
7. Visit another continent.

Seven things I cannot do:

1. Crochet!
2. Finish one knitting project before starting another.
3. Mend a bike puncture.
4. Cross a wide road on my own.
5. Eat gluten without being ill.
6. Be tidy.
7. Understand pension plans.

Seven things that attract me to my spouse:

1. His tenderness with our children.
2. How good he looks in a suit.
3. His unshakeable convictions.
4. His patience with the big things.
5. The huge amount he does around the house, and the way that he does it without expecting any special praise.
6. The way he respects our differences in taste, and will try to accommodate the gaps.
7. He “gets” me.

Seven things I say most often:

1. “Adam – NO!”
2. “Ruth – NO!”
3. “Alright, it’s time to settle down and get on with some work” (to my classes)
4. “Hello Lovely” (to either child, or to John)
5. “Just 2 minutes on the computer…” (and no, it never is)
6. “What’cha doin’?”
7. “Night night, sleep well, see you in the morning.”

Seven books (or series) I love:

1. Pride and Prejudice
2. The Silent Miaow
3. Shirley
4. Love in the Time of Cholera
5. Milly Molly Mandy
6. The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency
7. Brewer’s Dictionary of Phrase and Fable

Seven movies I watch over and over again (or would watch over and over if I had the time)

1. Singin in the Rain
2. Casablanca
3. Monsoon Wedding
4.10 Things I Hate About You

1. Daisy
2. Fi
3. Ruth
4. Emma
5. Becky
6. Hazel
7. ANOther – in other words if you fancy having a go at this and I haven’t listed you – go for it!
