So I KNOW it's Christmas and I could show you a bazillion things we've been doing, talk about Christmas stuff, etc. But I have about zero time right now. I know I've been rather scarce so here's something that is already saved on my computer.
1. Until moving last year I have never lived more than 15 minutes from my parents, siblings or all my in-laws.
2. My weaknesses are See's Chocolates nuts & chews.
3. I was a gymnast until I was 14 and sprained my back.
4. I ran my first 5K at the age of 7. I ran on the high school varsity cross country team and lettered in cross country in Jr High. I don't even think I can run a mile now.
5. I've sold crap on ebay for 5 years.
6. I used to have a shopping addiction. I was in Gymboree at least twice a week every week for 2 years! Happy to say I've been over it since July 2006
7. When we moved to Petersboro it was the first time in my entire adult life I was not taking care of anyone else’s children. It lasted for about 8 months.
8. I miss teaching terribly.
9. We've owned a Wii for almost 2 years and I've only played it twice.
10. Growing up I had hair past my butt. It was waist length until after Christian was born. I used to spend 2 hours every morning doing my hair.
11. I always wanted 6 children.
12. I am addicted to Star Gate SG-1. We own every season and Brandon and I have spent most Fridays watching past episodes for 4 years.
13. I make several lists every day. I have lists for my lists.
14. My biggest pet peeve is rain drops left on the windshield. Brandon refuses to use the wipers until he almost can't see and it's worse than nails on the chalkboard!
15. I LOVE movie popcorn with LOTS of butter. I buy it even when I'm not going to see a show. Maybe this should be added to the weaknesses?
16. I bake something at least once a week usually from scratch.
17. I am a total sentimental sap and am emotionally attached to everything my children have ever owned. Up until 2 years ago I had never sold or given away one piece of clothing or toy. We are talking 8 years worth of kids stuff!
18. I have a ginormous porcelain doll collection that now lives in Rubbermaid totes.
19. My Beanie Baby Collection is even bigger. Also in permanent moratorium in totes.
20. I almost never go to bed before mid-night and it makes me really tired.
21. I am a Disney Vacation lover. I've been to Disneyland over 30 times. Probably 40 I’ve lost track
22. Brandon and I honeymooned in Disney World with my entire family, extended too. LOL
23. I can't name my children until I see them. My cat has never received a name. Her name has been Kitty for 11 years.
24. Brandon and I are high school sweethearts. We started dating in 1992.
25. I am a laundry Nazi. Everything besides underwear and linens is washed in cold and line dried. It has been really hard in this house but I have not given it up. I iron everyone’s clothes every single day. Even t-shirts and jeans.
