ANSWERING A TAG...

My blog pal Blue has tagged me with this info quiz about me....

1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?

-A couple of years ago I found out that I have the same first name as my half sister who died many years before I was born...which I still find very creepy! All my growing up years, I'd hated that name and after leaving home...I'm now known by my middle name. Which some of my family still find hard to accept!

2. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED?

-At 1:45 am this morning...my cat Suki is ill and I can't afford to take her to the vet! I have to rely on alternative ways to help her out...making me angry at people who don't pay me [or make me wait] for work that I do for them!
