75 Things About Me

The following information will not change the world, nor feel you with great insight. Just a moment in time to share with you. :)

1. I love Jesus, my lord and savior.

4. I am a student at heart, always wanting to learn more.

5. I plan on graduating with my Masters in Special Education either in Dec. '10 or May '11. I will receive my lincensure for teaching this Summer of 2010.

6. I rarely shave my legs in the winter time, and, surprisingly, they never get very hairy.

16. It's harder for me to be a wife. I'm more of a loner. Living with another adult can be hard for me at times. I like my world my way and compromising is not always my best trait.

17. I've been married 3 times. Some will judge me. Some will shame me. Honestly, I don't care.

20. I am facinated by the human body.

21. I teeter on the edge of feminism, liberaism, and other "isms" I'm not aware of at the moment.

22. I was raised an only child and therefore am spoiled.

23. I love working out, but hate pain.

24. I once had a great body. I'm currently trying to find it. :)

40. I've always wanted to be a photographer.

41. I've wondered before how my life would have turned out if I hadn't had kids. Would I be single? Would I live in a big city? The answer to these are probably both yes. Would I give up what I have now to do those things? Never!

42. My mouth can be extremely mean if not kept in check.

43. Sadly, I judge people. And sometimes I think I'm better than others. I have an inflated ego. I am not proud of this and ask God to work on me daily.

45. I think the human race is a lazy sort of bunch.

48. I've never been on a cruise, would love to go, but feel I'd spend my time sea sick.

49. My mother passed away 3 years ago and there are some moments that I'd give anything to touch her again, just to talk to her one last time.

55. I have bad knees and always have.

58. I'm now wondering who, if any, has actually made it this far in their reading.

59. I am annoyed by farts.

60. I could really use a maid but I'd feel terrible having someone else clean up my mess.

61. I am madly in love with my husband, and even though it seems to sometimes go against my nature, I can't see my life without him.

62. I look at old couples and smile, daydreaming of walking around a park with my husband when we're old and wriggly.

63. I feel completely overwhelmed and stressed at the moment with family, work, and school, but it's an adventure that I'd never want to change.

68. My daughter is 10 months old today, and I can't believe this time has flown by so quickly.

69. I enjoy burning candles and will usually have at least one type of smell good item in my house at all times. There is just something grand about creating a peaceful environment through scents.

70. I sometimes get hooked on words. If you ever sit with me in a workshop you'll notice that I make a list of all the words I like. It's sad and creepy sometimes that I actually categorize the English language.

71. I wish I was more organized and actually plan to spend this whole year decluttering myself.

72. I love my friends. I'm more of a homebody, but there's just something great about spending time with people who help ya smile.

73. If I had one of those awesome cell phones I'd lose my job for constant texting. Seriously. I'd twitter my heart content. And really just twitter about absolutely nothing and still be happy with it. :)

74. I begin another spin class tonight. I'm looking forward to the pain, even though I don't like pain, but to be able to ride a bike for a good 45 minutes, well, that's more like superhero pain. :)

75. I now declare myself a superhero!
