My 25 Things...

So I have decided that since I don't do Facebook and some of our fellow bloggers are doing their 25 things, I would too. I know this is a little after the fact but since I don't have pics of Padre to post yet, I will do this instead. If you are lucky, we will share pics of our trip later! ;-) Ok, here goes...I will try to shock and awe all of you!

1. I am addicted to texting. I know..shocking! I love to text. Not that I don't love to talk on the phone (because our phone bill will show that I very much love talking on the phone!) but I love me some texting.

2. I am some kinda country! I love me some steak and potatoes, I love sweet tea, I love me some fried food, I love me some fires outside when it is chilly, I love me some back roads, I love my little bitty town I grew up in. I am country. I am convinced that you can take the girl out of the country but you can't take the country out of the girl.

3. One of my two BFF's is Alison. I have only called 4 people in my entire life my BFF so I don't use those letters loosely!! I am not one to truly let people in my weird little world all the way, but Alison is definitely one I have let in and I am very happy I did. My weird little world hasn't been the same and I am so happy I let my guard down when I did!

4. My other BFF is Clint. Yes, he is a guy. No, he is not gay. Get over it world-one of my two best friends is a guy and that is all there is to it. We have known each other for 13 years and he is practically a brother to me. He would give his life for me just as any family member would for me. Actually, he practically is family. So, now you have it...take it or leave it.

5. My mom is one of the closest people to me in my life. I love her dearly and I think she is the strongest, craftiest, smartest, most awesome lady around. She is a blessing and I am lucky to have such a wonderful mom. We talk almost every day and I wouldn't change that for the world.

6. I can't stand it when people let animals lick them on the face. Yes, I said it. And I have a dog that loves to show her affection by licking you in the face. I can't stand it. I love my Biscuit to death, but you will not witness her licking me in the face.

7. I love me some James Avery. Enough said...

8. I have no favorite kind of music. I listen to everything and I am pretty open to everything.

9. I am convinced that I miss my brother more than he misses me. Sometimes I even think that I love him more than he loves me, but who knows? I miss the way we used to be so close and I would do anything to have that back.

10. I wish time machines were real. Do you know what I could do with a time machine?!?!

11. I suck at keeping in touch with old friends, and I suck just as bad with keeping up with my blog. I know that one is a shock to everyone!

12. I love food. I am for the most part not picky. I like all types of food and have no problem stuffing myself whenever I get the chance!

13. Volleyball is my favorite sport. It has to be to tear my ACL and both meniscus, have surgery, be on crutches and not be able to put pressure on my leg for 6 weeks and still play again this season! What can I say...I am addicted!

14. I love to laugh. I really love to belly laugh. I challenge anyone to get me to belly laugh!

15. I hate stupid people. I know you all have encountered stupid people in your life. God gave us common sense to actually use it!!

16. I have a degree in psychology. I am doing NOTHING with my degree that I paid good money for. I don't want to talk about it!

17. I HATE to be cold. Yes, Alison, I am always cold in your apartment! I love you enough to let that one go, though. It is all about sacrifices.

18. I love sappy movies. I am a romantic at heart. What can I say?

19. I love our friends. Our life would not be the same without our friends. I could go on all day about each one of you individually, but you would never get to the end!

20. I am wordy! I know! You are bored by now, but I can't help it. I think details are important.

21. I love animals. All animals (except snakes and spiders and rats). Ok, for the most part, I love animals!

22. I don't know how to say "no." I have a hard time saying no to things. Therefore, I am always tired and over worked, and spread too thin. Now that you know this, it doesn't give you permission to take advantage of the fact that I won't say no to you!

23. I love to cook. I am not sure there is any more to say to that!!

24. My favorite flower is the gerber daisy. However, I never turn my nose up at any flower-especially when they are given to me as a surprise!

25. Last but not least, I love my husband, I love our home, and I love our life filled with all of the wonderful people around us. I consider myself a pretty lucky girl.

Thanks for reading all of this. I know it was long, but I am sure you learned something about me if you made it this far!
