I’ve Been Tagged!

Seems I’ve just been tagged by Darlene at Interview Chatter. The idea seems to be to write 7 random facts about myself and tie them into my blog somehow. Mmmm. Now what to share?

1. As a young girl I’d always dreamed of running my own business, I just didn’t know what or how.
2. Twenty years later I finally realised that whilst I was waiting for that business opportunity to come along I had developed the very skills I would need for a business.
3. In 1993 I won ‘Secretary of the Year’ and Microsoft very kindly sponsored the award, gifting me the Office 2.1 package.
4. I couldn’t use the Office 2.1 package at work as they already had their own software so it gave me a great excuse to buy my first PC.
5. I already owned an Atari and had been learning to develop a database with it and do various things – seems I was already developing my skills in technology 🙂
6. Once I had my first PC I told my husband all I needed was a printer and I could work at home!
7. On March 24, 1994 (National Secretaries Day in Australia) I registered my business name and officially opened for business.

There, I think that qualifies for this meme. Now, who can I tag to carry it on?

For the benefit of those reading this:

Here are the rules:

Each player starts with 7 random facts/habits about themselves. People who are tagged need to then report this on their own blog with their 7 random facts as well as these rules. They then need to tag 7 others and list their names on their blog. They are also asked to leave a comment for each of the tagged, letting them know they have been tagged and to read the blog.

Here are 7 of my favorite blogs and or people:

1. Lorraine Pirihi, The Office Organiser
2. Des Walsh,Thinking Home Business
3. Meg, Blogpond
4. Alister Cameron
5. Craig Harper, Motivational Speaker
6. Paddy Spruce
7. Stuart Robinson, Gardening Tips ‘n’ Ideas
