20 things about me

things about me

1. I am a true Taurean. both sun and moon sign.I like my roots to go deep and change makes me feel very unsettled. I am stubborn ,loyal , affectionate and love beautiful things. oh , and I think I am right all the time.



2. I have a toothbrushing phobia. I cant bear seeing others brush their teeth even on tv or in a cartoon and I don't like my toothbrush to touch other things. I only use mentadant p toothpaste and will not use another kind. My brother has the same thing so we were obviously both affected by some toothbrush trauma as children.



3. Having a child has fulfilled me more than I could ever have imagined. Before Lily I was always searching for something, now I feel I have it.



4.I love tradition and old treasures. Following tradition is very important to me as is creating new ones. I would much rather have a lovely antique bowl than a brand new one.



5. I hate the actual process of travelling especially by car. I get so motion sick and hope one day in my lifetime some sort of time travel is invented where i can just transport from one place to another in seconds.



6. I am not a religious person but I am a spiritual person. I have explored everything from pendulums to past life regression in some little way. I believe in spirits and angels.



7. I am terrible to get into a heated discussion or argument with. when i feel strongly enough about something I am like a dog with a bone and cant let go. close friends of mine know to move away when I start.



8. I am an ultra sensitive person and cannot watch or hear anything that upsets me as it lives with me. I much prefer to be an ostrich much to the annoyance of several people who have to pass a film with me before we can watch it.



9. I love old music like Billy holiday and Nina Simone, Frank Sinatra and Rosemary Clooney. I also love George Micheal . Nothing puts me in a better mood than a bit of Wham.

10. I am naturally curvy and have accepted that I will have a lifelong battle keeping my weight down. Its in my genes you see.

11. I look to my mum and dad for everything from advice to comfort. They are my role models and they have always given me love , acceptance and unconditional love. I know they are proud of me and there is nothing as important than knowing that.

12. I love travelling. We had many great holidays as children that were so important to my childhood memories. Nothing educates you like travelling does. I would love to see India , Thailand , Mexico, Japan , America (north and South) , Canada to name a few . Europe is a fascinating continent which I love seeing and exploring as is my home continent , Africa.

13. I love Cape Town, my heart lies there an always will. I feel different when i am there. I am comfortable in my skin

14. I love parties and dressing up. I like things to have a sense of occasion.

15. I am straight laced , law abiding and sometimes prudish. I cant bear to break the law or jump a queue. Sad I know but I cant help it.

16. I feel lucky that I found Kristian when I was so young and we have been able to build a life and family together. We have our ups and downs but we are perfectly matched as we just get each other.

17. my friends are very important to me. My close friends feel like family to me. In fact they are family to me. When they are in crisis so am I. if they are happy I feel happy. I am lucky to have them.

18.I love shoes. I really really love them. all types. I wish I had money to buy hundreds of pairs

19. I am a tv addict. I would love to tell you I am not bothered and read books all night , but no... I cant get enough of my favorite programmes. Lately we have taken to watching those bid tv channels selling awful , cheap products. We roar with laughter. Its very funny... honest.

20. All I really want from life is to be happy and fulfilled and for my daughter to be happy and healthy.
