Inquiring minds asked so here it is.......................
The irony is that I was MeMe'd in March when I was first here and did a meme which I totally messed up because I actually posted to the group rather than on my blog for the group - that blonde hair will get you in trouble all the time. So please Check out: I was challenged to tell more about Me! Me!- so here goes...
So interestingly enough 3 of my new friends - Ashley Drake & Peggy Edwards, Thesa Chambers, nominated me to tell more about myself so here goes, Part II - 5 more things....
I would like to pass the meme on to Susie Roscoe, Katrina Madewell and Mana Tulberg:
1) We started homeschooling our two boys this last September - I must say Jack does most the heavy lifting- I'm the field trip / substitute teacher when his work calls him away :-).
2) I was offered a scholarship to college for softball. I played growing up and played pitcher and right field. Learned the meaning of teamwork being both the "focal point" as pitcher and the "weaker link" in right field - doing what the team needs.
3) I love the water - and have been swimming since I was 2 years old. I swam competitively through HS too. I love the beach and the beach lifestyle.
Flat Mark Flanders can vouch for that! I love the beach, the beach and did I say the beach - oh yeah, and throw in beach sunsets too.
4) I enjoy red wine and dream of touring California Vineyards or France at sometime (kid-free) - so looking forward to visiting my friends in that area :-) For now I'll have to enjoy a glass at all my favorite local restaurants.
5) We enjoy camping and getting away from it all and are lucky to live in an area with lots of great places to get away too within a days drive. 
Ft DeSoto is our favorite spot! 
I'd love to share a Florida Beach Sunset - you may find you fall in love with them too...
Updated 5/30/07 - Here's my husband's Meme if you want to meet my better half..And The MeMe Goes To....Jack
Cyndee,
Nice to find out more about you. Those gulf coast sunsets are SO beautiful. We used to go down to St. George Island back when we lived in Georgia. We are counting the days down now to our beach vacation on the Carolina Coast.

Cyndee,
We are about an hour south of Raleigh in the middle of the state. We go to the beach at Oak Island south of Wilmington. The island runs east - west so you can get sunrises and sunsets over the water. The only bad thing is our beach vacation goes by so quickly every year.
Rita
Cyndee ~ You've got some cute boys there! How cool you home school or Daddy does...he must be very patient and proud! Your sunsets are great too. BTW you need to put a <br /> or more after your last link and before The Button (you know which one I mean) to give it a space. <br /> is like a carriage return...

KK - thanks for visiting and the kind words and yes Dad is amazing at homeschooling & an awesome husband too- so I got one of the good one! Glad to share my sunsets with you.

By the way, I Enjoyed our chat today, looking forward to the next time! :-) Thanks Cyndee.
Oh Mana - that would be amazing wouldn't it! Did you check out the first post?
I can't wait to see yours and letting people get to know more about you - you're such an awesome addition to this community.
I enjoy all your posts and my husband keeps teasing me saying - the kids think you're "bogging" your friends! Give up the laptop - I tell him those are fighting words!! LOL
Mana - I did check out your blog - it was a scream!
Randy - Jack deserves all the credit - but we've seen a huge impact on the kids. He's made a real personal commitment to make it happen - can you tell I'm his biggest Fan! THanks for visiting my MeMe.
Great job!
Jack
Cyndee,
I originally missed you on my list but now you are in place.
Since you were a pitcher can you arm wrestle well?
I grew up across the street from a girl who fast-pitched who could also out arm wrestled most of her classmates......boys or girls!
Lucky :)
Cyndee,
According to Google, we are 4.5 hours West of Kitty Hawk. I haven't been to the Outer Banks since my 12 year old was 2 but the beach out there is wonderful as well!
Rita
Missy - thanks for your kind words - Jack deserves all the credit for homeschooling - but it's working out great.
Rita - bummer - that's a long way :-(
Susie - thanks for holding me accountable - Note to self: Don't get distrcted by the drama! - blog on :-)
