8 things about me - blog tag thingy

So Anne tagged me for this blog thingy. She's knows I hate these things, but she wants to torture me. Since I know she's on tenderhooks waiting for the Passionate Plume Stroke of Midnight winners to be announced (or Midnight Strokes as I like to call it *snerk*), I decided to be nice to her and play along.

Of course I'm only going to play if I can do it by MY rules.

So, here are the rules:
A. Each player gets a loved one to list 8 facts/habits about the player from the loved one's point of view.
B. The rules of the game are posted at the beginning before those facts/habits are listed.
C. At the end of the post, the player then tags 8 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog. I hate to tag people so instead of tagging 8 people to do this, then I'm going to do A, 8 times. Yup, I have 8 people with 8 things about me. I'll give you four now and four later in the week.

First up is my mate Erin who I am the boss of *g*
1. Jaynie is not nearly as mean as she'd have people believe. And she is not the boss of me.
2. Jaynie has 3 kids that both drive her crazy but she's incredibly proud of. I get the feeling that they're a lot like her *g* (god help us all!).
3. Jaynie is a writer. She WILL finish her book some day (soon I hope because I've read a couple of chapters and need to know what happens next) and it will be published and there will be much rejoicing. (and she is not the boss of me)
4. Jaynie has a fantastic sense of humor. I find myself laughing a lot when I'm chatting with her.
5. Jaynie feels that her day is complete if she can make me say 'For crap sake, Jaynie!' I usually say that when she says something naughty. I'm innocent ya know.
6. Jaynie drinks Pepsi. Nectar of the gods.
7. I don't know if I've mentioned it but, Jaynie is NOT the boss of me. She likes to think that but she's pretty delusional.
8. Jaynie is a rockin good friend. She'll do whatever she can to help me feel better about my life, or at least try to feel better about things. She's always good for a kick in the butt so I stop wallowing in patheticness. lol

(yeah August lol. A few people have been hounding me, but come August when the kids are back in school, I will try and get the old WIPs out).

Then we have the Brat - Shiloh Walker
1) Jaynie is a smart alec
2) Jayne doesn't like contemporaries
3) Jaynie was my tim tam supplier until she moved (meanie)
4) Jaynie thinks she is the boss of Erin
5) Jaynie is agnostic
6) Jaynie tries to limit her swearing around me cuz she knows I'm not. ;o)
7) Jaynie understands the meaning of friendship, and the value of it.
8) Jaynie is back blogging again (which is cool, cuz I missed her.)

(Shi will be happy to know I've actually been on a contemp kick lately - it's all Alison Kent's fault)

Next up is my friend - Mama B (Bonita)
1 - Jaynie is very sweet and helpful even though she does not want people to know this. She has gone way out of her way to send me some things – I really appreciate what a wonderful friend she is.
2 - Jaynie is a transplanted New Zealander now living in Singapore, but also lived in Australia for many years.
3 - Jaynie was an editor for a publishing house, but “retired” to focus on being a Mummy (and reader).
4 - Jaynie has a delightful family including three beautiful and clever children, as well as one wonderful husband (Q): two sons (Ben and Connor) and one daughter (Laura). You could visit the children’s blog, but it has been a VERY long while since new pictures were posted. LOL (I just had to get that hint in as a “gentle” reminder).
5 - Jaynie has an adventurous personality.
6 - Jaynie has a delightful sense of humour and a quick wit (as a member of the TTABBB group, known as the Babes, one can see this first-hand).
7 - Jaynie has recently had great success losing weight (I am so proud of her because she has been working at this).
8 - Jaynie calls me Mama B since we like to pretend that she is one of my children (just way to far away – I am always trying to get her to move to the States).

(um...yeah - pics. I soooo need to get that organised *sigh*)

...and from my new mate Ter who I met at RT
1. - Jaynie will not admit it, but she is a BIG NICE MUSHY person.
2. - Jaynie is one HOT Fairy Slut.
