7 Things MeMe

7 things about me that you might not already know...

1.  I had a horse grownig up named Ka Hekili Au Ka Makai.  He was Morgan-Arabian 14.2 hands.  I showed him English & Western Pleasure, and we did barrel racing (once....we weren't very good at it).  :-)

2.   I was bitten by a feral cat when I was in my mid twenties and ended up in the hospital having to have micro surgery to get the infection out of my right wrist.  Still have the scar(s) which kind of looks like I tried to cut my wrist backwards.


3. I won an honorable mention in the 1979 High School Kodak photography contest (for my state).  They showed my picture in the Ala Moana Mall... :-)


4.  I was in FFA in high school, and I won 1st place in Agriculture Demonstration at the 1980 convention for Hawaii.  I demonstrated how to root herbaceous cuttings (some guys before me demonstrated castrating a piglet - I thought they were going to win for sure)


5. I've been to Tokyo Disneyland.


6.  I  "REALLY" like having my feet massaged.  It's hereditary.... my dad passed it to me (though he was more neck/back massages which us kids took turns treating him to - I still remember all of us crawling on his back like little insects).....I passed it to my daughter.  Scary stuff.


7.  I was born in Greenfield, Massachussets.

That's some very interesting facts about you. I don't know if I can think of that many.

What does Ka Hekili Au Ka Makai mean?

You were already showing your talents in photography and agriculture in High School!

I love feet, where some people think feet are odd things. I like foot massages because I get sore feet. I have a friend who does reflexology. You would probably be good at that. I probably like back massages better.

I have also been bitten by a feral cat in the side...when I worked for the Prevention of Cruelty. It didn't get infected, though. I also got bitten by a friend's pedigreed male Siamese cat. He got out while I was looking after her three cats (two Siamese, one Burmese). He acted friendly - until I picked him up! I had a new-born baby at the time, and it rattled me, but did not get infected. That must have been painful!

It means "the thunder of the ocean" :-)

I can barely read this- it appears to be all washed out

[eats-veggies.livejournal.com]

Not sure. I went in and made the font larger - maybe that will help.

[bright-feather.livejournal.com]

nope

[eats-veggies.livejournal.com]

Not sure what to say then - strange huh?
I see it okay on my end. Very odd.

Wow! Did you live in Hawaii? Feral cat bite? Crazy!

[eats-veggies.livejournal.com]

lol - I'm from Waialua, Hawaii (it's a dinky little plantation town on the North Shore of Oahu). I wasn't born there, but I spent most of my childhood and a chunk of my adulthood there. Most of my family still lives there.

Hey, see, I didn't know that! Very cool.
