Okay, as a result of me opening my big mouth to my dear friend Lori Caskey Sigety Im now caught in a web of Believe It Or Not about Cynthya Lewis Reed....so heres my NINE THINGS...call your pastor I may need prayer: Thing 1: As a child I used to love going to the tire stores with my relatives because I was addicted to the scent of real tire rubber...which probably explains a lot about me now... Thing 2: At age 7 my mother and my 2nd daddy bought me a piano so I could play for the church when I got good enough. Want your kids to not be afraid of anything except snakes and spiders, put them in front of crowds of people to play a song that only lasts 60 seconds, and work your way up to Handels Messiah for your church choir--thank you Sherman Street Church of God at 1925 Sherman Street in Anderson Indiana formerly 46011 now 46016 WES SI-YEEED! (That HALLELU-JAH Chorus part was a gauntlet! Prayed the whole way thru...(Whew!) Thing 3: When I started as a freshman at Ball State Univesity I was bound and determined to become a medical technologist...five life-science changes and 5 years later I took the easy road out: Health Science. Cant go to school forever, it wasnt that cheap back then either! Thing 4: Im a jellyfish...and yes I cry at total strangers funerals. Actually crashed a wedding one time in Vincinnes Indiana because I was bored. There were no more seats available so I left the church and walked back to the campus to do my summer youth leadership counseling thing where they called me Whoopie Reed (my long braided hairstyle somehow inspired my 9 campkids to call me Momma Whoopie) Thing 5: When my kids were smaller wed van travel a lot. The name of our red velvet seated van was Rooster. (Why, because it had a logo of a rooster crowing on the back door of the van. Hope its making some possum in the woods a happy home today. But sometimes we actually see ROOSTER SIGHTINGS in Muncie Indiana...at least more than we saw #Elvis...NEXT!) Thing 6: The reason I wanted a Masters Degree? I was bored. Seriously! Thing 7: My goal in the 2nd part of the autumn of my life is to become so wealthy that secret donations becomes a game to me. If a charity needs $5000 bucks to meet goal, I want to send a courier in a limo to the CEOs office and have them sign for a plain brown envelope that says Enjoy! But they might call swat and then swat blows up the check because it looks suspicious...ALRIGHT! ONLINE GIVING IT IS!!! Thing 8: Im cured from the lure of donuts. Just ask anyone I used to work with when I was Associate Regional Director from 1990 to 1995 for the Governors Commission for Drug Free Indiana when wed have those meetings in downtown Indianapolis...no donut was safe around Mrs Cynthia (at the time there was no ya) Reed. AND DRUMROLLLLLL PLEASE! Thing Number 9: No matter how ticked off I get at someone, its because I care. But Im getting older and so I say something once time, then WALK AWAY. Tired of spoonfeeding people into success and thats for DARN SURE! My and my baby gotta travel...we do it wholesale, and those who want to spend more...may your job promotion be with you! flipthatdollar
