11 Things About Me
1. I'm pretty sure that the Harry Potter series are my favorite books ever. And that's saying a lot. I typically read at least 100 books a year but I can't go too long without some Harry Potter!
2. I love being pregnant. I could do it over and over and over....but I don't think I could handle that many kiddos....
3. I know it's fun for them but I don't like that my babies are losing their baby teeth. Those perfect, beautiful smiles are turning into those awkward, teeth-of-every-size smiles. I mean, of course they're still gorgeous smiles but....
4. I miss college. Friends around all the time everywhere, nothing to spend money on except the things you want, so very little responsibility....
5. General Hospital has been my favorite show since I was 12 years old. If it gets canceled, I will cry. You can be sure of that.
6. I love Christmas!
7. With the online earning I have done this year, I have almost completely paid for Christmas for us (over $1000 worth). I need $32 more to break even! I am so proud of myself!
8. I love my smartphone! I kept saying I didn't want or need a smartphone. I was wrong. I still don't need it but OOOOH I LOVE IT!
9. I don't like reading to my kids. I know, that's really sad. I love to read but I've always hated reading out loud. I have to make a very conscious effort to read to them often because it's not something I enjoy.
10. I love pictures. I love taking them, I love scrapbooking with them, I love making gifts with them. It's a good thing I'm not Amish.
11. Speaking of Amish, I would love to visit Lancaster County and see all of the Amish communities. Their culture fascinates me.
My answers to Julia's questions:
1. What is your most used kitchen appliance? Probably my can opener....
2. What do you do to treat or pamper yourself? Once or twice a year, I go on a scrapbooking retreat. It's 4 days and 3 nights of sleeping, eating, chatting, scrapping - and I can do all of it whenever I want without any littles waking me up or asking for my food or attention!
3. Are you planning on making any Christmas gifts? If so, have you already started? I made digital scrapbooks of the year for the kiddos. I've done it the past two years for Kyler and Meli and they absolutely love them so it's become a tradition. I've made or am making a couple other things for other people but they might read this so...I can't tell yet. :)
4. If you had to choose only one music album to listen to during a week, which album would it be? Well, at this time of year it would be Harry Connick, Jr.'s Harry for the Holidays CD. It's one of my very favorite Christmas CDs!
5. How frequently do you wash your car? (or have it washed?) Um...never? Maybe once a year we'll get out there in our swim suits and scrub it but not always. I have enough to worry about keeping the kids and house presentable. The car just doesn't rate up there in importance....
6. If you had an extra $500, what would you do with it? Pay bills! (Or put it towards my scrapbooking retreats fund....)
7. Do you have any moving boxes you can give me? Sorry, no boxes here :( And where in Tx are you moving???
8. What is your favorite meal of the day? Why? Depends on what I'm eating! Any time I can eat out, it's my favorite meal of the day (That's where alot of that $500 would probably end up going. Supporting my eating out habit. I'm a restaurant addict.)
9. What kind of student were you? Mostly As, some Bs and a C in stupid IB biology freshman year. I hate science. I'm one of those people that gets good grades with little effort. I put off writing papers and doing projects until the last minute almost always. I enjoyed school, probably because it was so little work, and (as a people-pleaser) liked doing what was expected of me.
10. Where do you like to vacation? Anywhere works for me! We had a fun family vacation to San Antonio a couple years ago. My scrapbooking retreats are the only vacations I've had since then. Someday we'd like to go to Orlando to visit DisneyWorld. I'd also really like to go to Hawaii and Australian eventually. And Lancaster County, PA, as I mentioned above! :)
11. If you were invisible, where would you go? Hm....interesting. Anywhere that I could listen in on conversations that I wouldn't otherwise be privy to and that I might find....enlightening. :P
