35 Things

I'm back on-line now--after my much needed e-break--but I was struggling with what to write about, since nothing really eventful has happened this weekend. Then I read Meredith's blog and thought this list looked fun! Thanks, Mer!

35 Odd Things About Me

1. Do you like blue cheese salad dressing? Never tried it...can't bring myself to try something with the words blue and cheese in the same name. You won't convince me otherwise, so don't try.

2. Do you own a gun? Personally, no. But, we have lots in our house. Thanks to my husband's gun fetish...nothing creepy though.

3. What's your favorite drink at Starbucks? Tall low-fat caramel mocha latte. I think I got that right...been a long time since I've ordered StarBucks. Wonders of living in small town USA.

4. What do you prefer to drink in the morning? Diet Dr. Pepper

5. Do you do pushups? Only if you are talking about pushing a Diet Dr. Pepper up towards my mouth.

6. What's your favorite piece of jewelry? My diamond pendant from my sweet hubby.

7. Favorite hobby? Scrapbooking

8. Do you have A.D.D? I don't think so. Wait, what was the question?

9. What's one trait that you hate about yourself? That I'm not more assertive.

10. Name 3 thoughts at this exact moment: What should I write for this answer? Wonder why Tate is so quiet? I wish my house was clean.

11. Name 4 drinks you regularly drink. Diet Dr. Pepper / Diet Dr. Pepper with Pineapple from Sonic / Sugar-Free Grape Kool-Aide / Water (but only if I don't have access to the above 3)

12. Current worry right now? I need to start saving for Christmas, but not sure where that will fit in the budget.

13. Current hate right now? Bills

14. Favorite place to be? Anywhere my family is. I'm not picky.

15. Do you like to travel? Oh, so much. Want to go now!!!

16. What color shirt are you wearing? Light blue

17. Do you like sleeping on satin sheets? No...I always lose my pillow and they are too cold.

18. Can you whistle? You betcha

19. Favorite color? Periwinkle

20. If you could would you be a pirate? I'm going to go with no, but I think the eye patches and earrings are awfully groovy.

21. What song do you sing in the shower? Usually whatever country song just woke me up on the clock radio.

22. Favorite girl's name? Emma. What our daughter would be named, had we had one!

23. Favorite boy's name? Keaton, Sawyer, and Tate...of course! If I were to have another boy, I think I'd name him Micah.

24. What's in your pocket right now? The receipt from Walgreens. Went there to buy a newspaper after church today.

25. Favorite bedsheets as a child? I think I had Holly Hobby sheets....or were those my knee socks..hmmmmmm...

26. Worst injury? All the injuries after my car wreck in high school. Nothing major though...what I remember is a brutal black eye that earned me the name "Petey" at school (you know...the dog from Little Rascals).

27. Do you love where you live? I'm happy here. Love? Debatable.

28. How many TVs do you have in your house? Two that work, two that don't.

29. Who is your loudest friend? No way...not going there.

30. How many pets do you have? Two--Ozzie, our lazy dog, and Indiana Jones, our lazier cat

31. Does someone have a crush on you? Hoping that my husband does.

32. What is your Favorite Book? Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers

33. What's your favorite candy? Almond Joy candy bars

34. Favorite Sports Team? Arkansas Razorbacks (even though they stink right now), St. Louis Cardinals, and Indianapolis Colts

35. What was the first thing you thought of when you woke up? Why am I still wearing my glasses? (I'm actually shocked they made it through the night on my face...I fell asleep watching SNL--love Tina Fey as Sarah Palin!!!)

Diet DP w/ pineapple? Haven't tried it! Maybe I will! And I don't know how in the world you were comfortable sleeping in your glasses!
