It's the big 4-0...

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I turned 40 years old today. :-) So, I decided to do one of those lists about myself. Of course there are 40 things, but it is more of a "Hodge Podge" about me. Not one specific theme. Some of you may already know, some you may not. Hope you enjoy it. :-)

Love,
Wendy Darling

Okay, I didn't stop laughing about #10 until somewhere around #30. :P
