I've been Tagged!


As you might have noticed, blogs have been getting tagged all over the place recently! In fact, I am the one of the last people I know to get tagged. (which says something about my blog promotions, I think I need to work on that...)

I was tagged by Sassy Soaps and Such She makes handmade soaps and dolls. I couldn't resist this mousy soap! (I wonder why!)





So here are the rules of being tagged:
  1. Link to your tagger and list these rules on your blog.
  2. Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.
  3. Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blog. Let them know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.


Here are 7 random facts about me!
  1. When I was little I wanted to be a teacher
  2. In my spare time I perform improvised comedy (like "Who's Line is it Anyway?") on stage in Amsterdam City Center.
  3. My middle name is Juliet.
  4. When I am sewing I have to have a dvd or audio book playing or I get bored quickly.
  5. I made my first mouse exactly one year ago today.
  6. Before I made mice I was a professional oil painter www.annagreaves.com
  7. I was born with hypermobility in all my joints. This means that all the joints in my body flex further than a normal persons do (different from being double-jointed). This makes me very flexible but it also means that my muscles have to take a lot more of the strain on every day movement, so I often suffer from muscle pain and RSI.
Now to tag some of my blog friends...
  1. My little Bird
  2. ArtMind
  3. FleurFatale
  4. Daydream Glass
  5. PinkPatrice Boutique
  6. Sock Monkey Jungle
  7. Beads in the Belfry

    OMG, I would scream, if I see that soap alive *lol*
    It's nice to know more about you, Anna :) I've read about hypermobility on Wiki. If I look at the photos there, I have to say, that I have hypermobility too. But I think, it's quite normal for Asian people.
    Love your paintings btw! You're a very talented girl!
