know & tell friday!
1. Why were you given your particular name?
My first name is Deborah. I was told most of my life I was named after Deborah in the bible (judges 4), which isn’t a bad person to be named after… she was in the bible and a judge. But, in the past few years it was revealed I was named Deborah because my dear daddy was watching a movie starring Deborah Kerr. I was called Annie (middle name) all my life, so Deborah doesn’t even really seem like my “name.” But, I like the name Annie and pretty much won’t answer when called anything else. Except maybe mom.
2. What’s your favorite song of the moment?
3. What are you wearing today which is most reflective of who you are?
It’s pretty early and I haven’t actually dressed for the day yet… so it’s hard to say. But I’ll go with what I am wearing. I have on shorts and a t-shirt. So I would say my clothes are comfortable and so am I.
4. Have you ever had a pet that was not a cat or dog? What was it?
Well, there is Pinky. Can’t forget Hank… There are the goats… My favorite animal memory was from childhood. When our family moved to Choctaw we thought we were in the “country.” So it seemed perfectly necessary to buy some farm animals. right. I wanted a horse really bad so my dad bought me one. Her name was Blossom. She would take us for rides, raking us against the back fence. Usually tearing our pants. We thought she was spunky. One morning some months after getting to know Blossom we thought very well our neighbors called to tell us that there were two horses now. Blossom and baby blossom. We had no idea she was with child. No wonder she was so mean. Hello!
5. What type of exercise do you do to keep in shape?
Who says I’m in shape? :)… I think life is my main exercise. I do some walking, some wii-ing, etc. But just the daily running, cleaning, swimming, cleaning, lifting, blah blah blah.
6. What is your favorite movie of all time?
I love the Little Princess movie. Not the Shirley Temple one. I like that one too, but I like the newer one. Alot. But I haven’t watched it in a long time. I like musicals like footloose, grease, and yentl. I like cry movies from the 80’s like Beaches and Steel Magnolias.
7. Do you enjoy gardening, or working with flowers?
I do. Especially when they mind me. And bloom and stuff. When they die I don’t so much.

Would have never guessed your name was Deborah. Love your exercise answer. That story about Blossom is priceless.

Poor Blossom. ha! I remember when I was in junior high and high school - a lot of families seemed to be moving to Choctaw from Del City. And all of us DID consider that to be “country living”. lol Our old junior high principal, Mr. Burkhart, and his family lived out there. His daughter was my sister’s best friend. Any time we went out there, it felt like we’d slipped into “Little House on the Prairie” mode. That’s so funny to think of now.

First I have to say I sooo like your white background back! So much easier on the eyes, Annie!
You had goats as pets? How cool is that? And I’m sure you get tons of exercise by what you do on a daily basis!
I never would have guessed you were a Deborah. I love that song you posted. I had never heard it before.
