So I have to give you all ten 'scraps' of honest info about me. BORING! But I'll do it anyway- y'all need a nap right about now I'm sure.
Oh and I have to scrap some other folks too! So look out I may scrap you! Check out the end of the blog to see who I've picked.
Scrap 1. I hate to cook. Yup- I know all you dollys out there LUUUUVVE it, but I have a fierce wish to turn my stove into a planter.
Scrap 2. I've been buying trading and selling horses since I was about ten. Some of them my parents knew about, some they didn't. But that was in a time where people would deal with a confident ten year old and not ask, " Where is your Mother?"
Scrap 3. I've never been out of the country. Yes that is Country not county. Not Mexico-not Canada, not even Hawaii which is still technically in the USA, but since you have to fly over water to get there I count it.
Scrap 4. Before I had a drivers license, I had a black and white pony and cart that I drove EVERYWHERE!. And remember this is the East Bay, just East of San Francisco- people gawked! Even then....
Scrap 5. My first real job besides babysitting or riding horses was at a Gas Station and I was the window washer. Self explanatory I'm sure. I was 14 and made $1.50 an hour.
Scrap 6. When I was five I rode my Shetlands with a string wrapped around their bottom jaws because I had read about it in a book. ( Where is your mother?")And I didn't ever ride in an arena- it was the wide open spaces....
Scrap 7. I have had horses rear and fall on me three times. (and of those times I was hurt twice).
Scrap 8. My greatest aspiration ( as of today anyway) is to ride Bay Desperado (Desi) in the AQHA Select show.Someday. Soon.
Scrap 9. I read about three books a week.
Scrap 10. I listen to the Grateful Dead all of the time. Aiko Aiko is my favorite song, followed closely by Sugar Magnolia.
So there you have it! Fascinated? I'll bet!
And now... I am going to Honestly Scrap ....

Interesting "scraps". I too hate cooking and well, I did make a planter out of my stove! LOL, Just the old antique one I replaced, but my hubs soes most of the cooking!
okay, I'll ask - where was your mother? LOL. Great list and I'm buying my next horse from you (as long as your mother's present, natch)
Inter esting very inter esting... lol! You were a little go getter were'nt you! I love the stove into a planter! hahaha! Girly you are a hoot! Hope you had a Wonderful Christmas!Did you get everything you asked for? he he Have a safe and WOnderful New Year!
So, were you a Deadhead? My brother was a total Deadhead and I went to a few Grateful Dead concerts myself. The music is very relaxing and the scene was unique.
My mother- well she was prolly off workin' somewhere. She never really did keep close tabs on any of us kids- prolly why we are so independent today. We just had better be home within a hour of dark!
You were quite the little spitfire as a child, weren't you! Love the tidbits!
I too love the Grateful Dead. Even managed to see them in concert on both coasts!! Most interesting scaps!! THANK YOU! You are too cool!
