I would have asked Lil Princess this time but she’s asleep!

I used to teach a Bhangra class!
I have 4 large bookshelves full of children’s books and educational books!
I would love to write a children’ book one day, I have written a poem style story but haven’t the wherewithal to illustrate it!
I never know what a haiku was until a couple of months… now I can’t stop writing them!
I once had 50 Winnie The Pooh collectible Beanie Babies… then they all got nibbled by mice in storage in my parent’s garage!
Someone once likened me to a rubber band, at university… “You like a rubber band gurrrl!” What??! “Yeah, its like, the way you twang when you dance!” 😐
