1) I grew up on farm in Oklahoma with all sorts of animals. However, I am SCARED to death of riding horses!!! I love to brush them, feed them, walk them but everytime I ride them, I get bucked off! EVERYTIME!!!! It is a running family joke.
2) I learned to drive by plowing the garden with the tractor.
3) Even though I have 3 Labs, I used to be very scared of big dogs.
4) I still have to sleep with a nightlight. I never got over my fear of the dark.
