Barb at May December Home tagged me the other day -- so that means she's asked me to share seven random things about myself, and then tag seven other lucky blogging friends to do the same. The random things about myself shouldn't be an issue -- because as I said to Barb, I'm very good at random! Anyways, here are my seven, followed by the seven I tag!
1) I was born in Montreal and grew up in Burlington, Ontario -- which for those of you who don't know, is just outside of Toronto.
2) I love dancing, and am busily learning how to mambo and salsa these days!
3) I love LOTS of colour, pattern, and funky lighting!
4) I was a bouncer when I was at university. Think they liked putting the small blonde beside the big, bruising football players. Something about calming the situation down! Thank god I never got swiped!
5) I lived for a year in Australia and New Zealand, which was fabulous.
6) I'm married with two small children: a boy and a girl, who I love to bits and keep me very busy.
7) And, I love blogging, because it's terrific meeting people from all around the world, who share my passion for interior decorating, design, and art.
And, here, are the lucky ones I'm tagging, because I love their blogs and I've enjoyed getting to know them a bit over the past few months with their comments and own posts.

Jen, thanks so much for tagging me, I love being tagged - I have already done this tag though sometime before, but thanks anyway, I appreciate you thinking of me :)
Ha! You're funny, Jenn. Yep, the west does have a certain appeal! :)
Hi Bronwyn. You're definitely off the hook for this one! Let me know, though, when you did it, so I can read your random things! :) Jen

I'm running behind!---- but I do appreciate your tagging me! I posted my list tonight!
Totally understandable, ND! You've been busy! I'm looking forward to checking out your list! Thanks for playing.
Hello there. I'm so glad to discover you! Thank you for popping in and saying hello.
I have two left feet and have always dreamed of being a dancer. I totally admire people who can express themselves that way.
I'm so honored to be tagged. I'll have to start thinking although it's really tough to beat yours. I can't believe you were a bouncer!! I love dancing too and living abroad is such a great way to experience something totally different. It was so fun to read these personal facts about you.
Karen ^_^
Dear Designing - thank you soooo much for tagging me !! I am SOOOO embarrassed that it has taken me this long to respond - my sincerest apologies.
Smiles and lovely to know that you have lived in Australia too - where exactly :-)?
Take care
Felicity
