blog post: the get to know me edition

1. I'm reading through the Bible, currently am in Exodus.
2. I always root for the underdog.
3. I'm not afraid to voice my opinion.
4. I'm a wee bit sarcastic and silly.
5. I like people but am a loner at heart.
6. I've had a crush on Leo DiCaprio since, like, forever. (and yes i call him that and yes i will see his new movie, inception)
7. My husband and I eloped to Branson, Missouri almost 8 years ago.
8. I daydream a lot.
9. I'm really good at Family Feud.
10. Nature makes me so happy. It centers me, makes me calm and reminds me of the greatness of God.
11. I miss the natural "high" of walking, running and hiking. I can't wait until I beat Lyme disease so I can do these things again.
12. I watch the Golden Girls every night from 11pm to midnight.
13. Falling asleep with the fan running is the only way I can catch some zzz's.
14. I heart snail mail! I love sending it and receiving it. Cards, presents, pictures… all of it!
15. Looking through really old black and white photo's of my family stirs my imagination.
16. Favorite Movies: fried green tomatoes, now and then, steel magnolias, driving ms daisy, the notebook, wizard of oz and white christmas.
17. I have a major love/hate relationship with my  nose.
18. Watching my children sleep makes me happy.
19. I like being constantly stimulated…. rocking in our chair, chewing gum, playing with my hair…
20. I only get baby fever when my 18 month old lets me cradle him like a newborn in the crook of my arm and rock him.
21. Desperately I wish I had a baby girl but have come to the realization that most likely we won't have more children…I haven't closed the door on that option completely but currently don't see another child added to the family.
22. I always say please and thank you, yes sir and no ma'am.
23. I speak with a slight southern drawl. Not all my words, but occasionally it comes out and I have no idea where it comes from. My oldest son is the same way.
24. I am keeping a dream journal where I jot down the previous nights dreams. I am a vivid dreamer and usually remember them the next morning.
25. I'm compassionate, caring and concerned about people and their well being but do guard my heart. I wouldn't say I have walls up anymore but I do have a small fence.

((26. i updated my about page. it was getting old, dusty and stale.))
