Hi Daibe Beads, I got blog tagged today, so now I'm tagging you. Hope that is OK :-)

If you chose to play, here's how this game of tag goes:

1. Link to the tagger.

2. Share 7 random or weird facts about yourself.

3. Tag 7 people, post their names and links to their blogs on your blog.

4. Tell the 7 people you tagged by posting “Tag you’re it” on their blogs in their comments box and explain the rules to them.

Please don't feel obligated, just tag if its something you think would be fun!
