week 5...fond mems

Can't tell them all it would take forever! but here are a few.
when i was 6 my dad asked me... how would you like to be in the drum corp?
I was very excited about this and said yes i would like to play the drums.
so i went every week to learn. they had this long table with round drum pads and i was
so small i couldn't reach them. they had to stack 2 coke bottle cases on top of each other so i could reach. back then the coke bottle cases were made of wood. bein so small my drum instructor would get a kick out of puttin a drum on me. it was very heavy and would hurt my shoulder so my mother made me a little pillow to put on my shoulder so the strap wouldn't cut into my shoulder.

Another fond memory i have as a kid is when i got my first record player at christmas with records! it was like alittle box, the cover was white and the bottom was red. the record i loved the most was Little Lulu and her bag of tricks.

i remember when i finally learned how to ride a 2 wheeler.
and it was my grandfather who taught me how to make potholders.
the kid next door showed me how to knit.
the first grade nun who thought i was special.( Aim, your gonna have to ask me why this nun thought i was so special)
never forget givin birth to the girls and many happy times with them through the years.
i also have fond memories of my dog Lady, she was such a good girl.
lookin at Kaitlyn when she was first born i will never forget!

week 4.. nickname and why

when i was a kid my father always introduced me as Suzie. i use to cringe, i hated it and even till today if someone calls me suzie i don't like it. when i was around 12, 13 one certain person started callin me sammy. i didn't mind that at the time, i was a tomboy. with the real name of
Susan.... most everyone calls me Sue.

week 3 , physical traits

i can only think of one physical trait.
my mother had ugly elbows! now i never really thought much about elbows before but
seems in my aging process, which i'm not handling well, my elbows are starting to look
like my mothers!!! i could just scream. so if you see me in long sleeves even if it's 90
degrees out you will know i am hiding my ugly elbows! lol

Anything unusual about the circumstances of your birth?

Don't know much about my birth, don't remember the time or how much i weighed or even the hospital i was born in. some place in worcester.
I know i was delivered by cesarean section. I was " the middle child". My older brother and
younger sister also were delivered C-section. My mother is a tiny woman , only stands about
4'5" if that and is very small framed. I'm sure C-section was the only way for her to go.
OH!!! i do remember the date!!! December 4th....not tellin what year LOL

what is your full name? Were you named after someone?

Is this a trick question? There's seems to be many ways for me to answer this.
My birth certificate reads Susan Marie Warren. I was confirmed and added the name Bernadette. Then i got married and my last name changed to Cummins. So i think my name is Susan Marie Bernadette Cummins. Never gave any thought to any of this.

My middle name is from my grandmother Rose Marie on my father's side.
I chose Bernadette as my confirmation name because i thought Bernadette was so
lucky to have seen the blessed virgin mother and i'll never understand why they tormented her so for telling the truth. I admire her courage and till this day still belive she saw her.

So ya don't really use your confirmation name on any legal documents. So what is it good for?
I have no idea. So is my legal name Susan Marie Cummins? I sign everything Susan M. Cummins so i guess that's it!

Hope the next question is easier lol , like what's your favorite color

the new year

yikes!! another year has gone by. seems like just a short while ago we were sayin happy 2000! now it's 2010! my car just got older too so maybe my insurance will go down... HA! wishful thinkin. HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYONE.... be careful if ya go out, stay safe and stay warm !
