another blog challenge

Another challenge from twopeas: list some fun facts about myself. This is a kewl challenge!!

1) I'm 38 yrs old, an aunt to 16 kids and a great-aunt to 19 kids. 4 of my nieces and nephews are older than me. (yes, I'm an oops.)
2) I do something "new" each year. Some things I've done:
skydiving
hot air ballooning
ridden highest ride in the U.S.
cave tubing
polar bear club (jumped in Lake Michigan on New Years Day)
parasailing
glider ride
held a sting ray
snorkeling
ziplining
3) I love to travel. I have a HUGE list of places I want to go!
4) DH and I opted not to have children. We enjoy our life and lifestyle as it is.
5) I love kitties/cats!!!
6) I'm a creative soul stuck in an analytical job/world.
7) I was a social work major until the middle of my junior year of college. I switched to accounting and still graduated on time.
8) I really want to move away from Wisconsin - way too cold for me!
9) My fave Halloween costume was Boy George - that was a long time ago!
10) I played trombone through middle school, high school and college. I'm short (aka vertically challenged), and had to turn slightly sideways to extend my slide to its furthest position. The most memorable performance - in college, 10 trombone players all standing on stage - me in the middle of 9 men, mostly tall and big.
11) I was a bit of a loner in grade school - high school; very unpopular because one of the popular girls decided she didn't like me. When I went to college where no one knew me, I was popular, a partier, a joker.
12) If I could get a good paying job third shift, I'd do it in a heartbeat. I am SUCH a night owl!!!
13) I used to dislike beer. Now I love it, especially dark beer - the kind you can chew. I had some dark beer in Prague, and mmmmm, it was good! And I became hooked.
14) My trip to Europe with Dad, Mom, one brother and one sister, along with a big tour group, was my most memorable vacation-to-date. We visited Germany, Czech Republic, Hungary and Austria. That area is "the homeland" to us, so it was very very neat to go there with family.
15) I've always been fascinated with Greece, as long as I can remember. I think that if there is such a thing as reincarnation, I lived in ancient Greece as someone relatively well-to-do.
16) When I was young my Mom worked out of the house, so I was with Dad every day - he farmed, so I could be with him most of the time. I remember sitting on the tractor, visiting the little boy next door, going to the coffee shop daily. :-) I've been told that he read to me, but that he didn't like children's books, so he read out of the encyclopedia!

Well... I'm thinking that's all for now. This is a challenge I might revisit soon!!!
