You sure are interesting, Michelle and I can add another interesting fact about you - you are super-organised ...
I have highlighted the things (30 of them) that you and I have in common .... we are all so different yet so alike ...
By the way, Michelle managed to name 106 interesting facts about herself - how many have you got???? Phew ... the pressure is on ...
Am still looking for a topic for the next BOM Challenge ... will post shortly ...
Love,

Fantastic Michelle. I wholeheartedly agree that we can add super duper organised as no.107! Putting us fellow BOM-ers really to shame now ....
Interesting facts. As a matter of interest my first salary was R782-50 and I resigned when I got offered R1000-00 per month at the bank, my first increase was 25% a whopping R250-00.
