I was tagged by Anna Millie (not her real name ) over at Confessions of a Psychologist & then also tagged by Trouble_Doubled a few days later to share a few things about myself that people might not know.
I’m a pretty open person, and generally share what I am comfortable sharing most days, so initially I struggled to find something that you don’t know about me already (well something that I am happy for you to know!)
1) My twitter handle is @Sar_Wah (this you know already), however the origins of Wah are something I haven’t shared yet. My step-father started calling me Wah when I was about 12. Apparently I answered the phone Sar-Wa speaking when he would call. Now the really odd thing is that my name is Sara, and I despise people putting a “H” on the end of my name, yet I stick a “H” onto Sar_Wah . I have been debating changing my twitter handle recently to something that reflects my blog better; however I have been Wah for 16 years now, so I am thinking I’ll keep it.
2) We have 3 dogs, and have had up to 9 when we lived on the farm (this was when one of our Kelpies had pups & believe me we were SO glad to see them go by the time they were 8 weeks old!)
3) I am an only child. This has never bothered me too much. I sometimes worry that my lack of social skills, and dislike of large social gatherings is a result of this but who knows. I suppose I never really learnt how to play regularly with others – I have always enjoyed my own company & until having the Worm would read books to entertain myself. Despite me being an only child I have always imagined having at least 2 children. I didn’t want my own children to feel lonely, or to be disadvantaged with social skills, I want them to have someone else to turn to if they feel they can’t talk to me, but that is a WHOLE other post!
4) I have moved around quite a lot over the past 10 years. I have lived in 7 towns, spread across 3 states.
5) I have sold Tupperware, and The Chefs Toolbox products though party plans. I really only signed up to be a consultant to get all the lovely products for myself. If I am truly honest I think I would have spent more money than I earned!
So there you go 5 things that you didn’t know about me before now. It is now my duties as holder of the versatile blogger award to tag 5 more people to share 5 things about themselves.
Therefore I tag:
Michelle – If These Walls
Jenn – Happiness, from the ground up
Kat – The Eclectic Editor
Sonia – Life Love & Hiccups
Amy - The Misadventurous Maker
Girls here is your chance to share a few secrets, so go on & have some fun.
This post is linking in with Jess over at Diary of a SAHM for I Blog On Tuesdays – jump over there & have a look. 
What do you think about my ‘secrets’- had you guessed any of them before I shared?















Ooo I’ve been tagged! Thanks for the dob-in, Sara
I’m onto it! xx

Thanks for playing along. Interesting about the single child thing. I was one of many and swore I would never do that to my kids! 2 will be it for me!
Anna Millie recently posted..The cat ate your penis!
Yeah I think 2 will pull us up Anna. I just always knew I didn’t want my child to be a ‘lonely only’ like me.
Sara recently posted..Parenting Magazines, providing sanity to a new mum
You don’t meet a lot of only children, and I don’t know why but it always suprises me when people say they are. I’m he youngest of four but the youngest by a BIG gap, so I was raised almost as an only child. I like my own company too
I did wonder about the wah. It’s nice to know.
Thanks for linking. Xxx

Thanks Jess
I appreciate you stopping by.

Hehe, kelpie pups would certainly keep you on your toes!
I like my own company too. Perhaps that’s because I had an annoying little brother

The kelpie pups drove me INSANE Jayne!! I was so pleased to see them go (although they were beautifully good natured)
Thanks for visiting.

I love the wah story!
Keep your twitter name as sar_wah. Cause I would get confused otherwise and clearly it is all about me

Kelley @ magnetoboldtoo recently posted..Because after the last post, CLEARLY people don’t read what I write not even the title which clearly spelled out my entire point. So here is a post full of pictures of something that I celebrate in a total heathen way, the coming of SANTA. But I don’t have to worry about people getting their knickers in a knot about me not believing that the son of god was born on 25 December and I am just in it for the gifts and the decorations… no they will probably notice a speck on the wall or the floor and be all OMG KELLEY IS THE WORST HOUSEKEEPER EVER WE MUST CALL SOCIAL SERVICES. Fuck you and ho motherfucking ho.*
Thanks for visiting Kelley – I’m keeping Wah – otherwise I would get confused too!
