Footsteps

Hmmm… another interesting tag from Rino. I’m a bit behind on responding to some of this “fun stuff”, but I’ll catch-up eventually. I’m more of a believer in birth order traits (I’m an oldest child; make of that what you will!) than anything arising out of my birth month, but for “fun”…

Here’s what Rino posted:

Twelve Months
1. Mention the person who tagged you and create a link back to them.
2. Copy-paste the traits for all the twelve months (for the complete list, see it here.)
3. Pick your month of birth.
4. Highlight the traits that apply to you.
5. Tag 12 people and let them know by visiting their blogs and leaving a comment for them.
6. Let the person who tagged you know when you’ve done it!

OK. I was a September baby. So…

SEPTEMBER: Suave and compromising. Careful, cautious and organized. Likes to point out people’s mistakes. Likes to criticize. Stubborn. Quiet but able to talk well. Calm and cool. Kind and sympathetic. Concerned and detailed. Loyal but not always honest. Does work well. Very confident. Sensitive. Good memory. Clever and knowledgeable. Loves to look for information. Must control oneself when criticizing. Able to motivate oneself. Understanding. Fun to be around. Secretive. Loves leisure and traveling. Hardly shows emotions. Tends to bottle up feelings. Very choosy, especially in relationships. Systematic.

Well… I wish I were “suave”. I wish I were “organized”. I wish I could remember where I’ve parked…

The Baby Book (pictured above) was my find-of-the-month as Hannah and I sorted through a stray box of my parents’ belongings unearthed in the great garage clean-up of last month. I laughed when she asked me where her own “Baby Book” is (note again that “organized” is not bold-faced in the “September” paragraph)and showed her how abruptly my mom’s careful entries ended when my twin sisters were born. I did assure her that I’ve taken copious notes on her clever remarks and achievements and have enough photos of her to wall-paper her first home.

We’ll do her “book” together someday (and she will then, no doubt, field the same question from her own daughter. Ahh; “tradition”)…

Next victims: Delmer, Armonelyon, SF Girl, Santa, Debojit, Debo Hobo, Cubicle Queen, PurpleFrogCat, SavvySuzy, Robin, Zephyr1, Peteej… (Extra points for baby pictures!)

***Some of you have asked about the MP3s which are normally an easy add-on. -Hope to have my computer/recording issues resolved soon (thank you, Karen). Otherwise, it’s back to a stone tablet and megaphone…
