11 Things about Me
1. I look younger than I really am (In my opinion) so unless I get all dolled up I am pretty sure people wonder ¨Is that her kid or is she just the pregnant babysitter ?¨
2. I love color, I had a rainbow belt that I wore the last few years of high school, not because I was trying to be a gay rights activist, the first week I got a few questions, I wore it because I LOVED IT.
3. I also love black and dark tones... I like to consider myself a versatile person.
4. I feel comfortable wearing tie dye, flowing skirts, and my awesome beach hair (which takes me almost an hour to achieve) -or- a ball gown, business suit and stilettos... once again VERSATILE
5. I don´t consider myself an awesome chef, but I have to say that pretty much everything I make tastes awesome! my husband agrees :-) I think my forte is pasta, and cookies.
6. I have a flexible personality, but when it comes to my child(ren) I am realizing more and more that I am NOT... I have a certain way I want things to be done with them and when I see or hear someone else doing differently (especially w/o consulting me first) my blood boils :-) in a nice way of course.
7. I have been described as ¨Silent but Deadly¨ ... I am not sure to agree or disagree.
8. Every time I go to Denny´s you can be sure that I will order Chicken Strips.
9. I hate hearing curse words !!!!!!! I admit, there are times when a few have crossed my mind and I really felt like spitting them out,,, and I am not saying that I have never said one,,, but please, is it necessary to use one in every sentence in a movie. Vocabulary people ... expand it !
10. I feel like a boxed in artist most of the time. If I had the space, time and resources I would make everything I own, clothes, food, furniture and art :-) Don´t think this means that I don´t enjoy buying things other people have made.
11. I don´t like kids. I love mine, and a handful of others, but no, I don´t want to babysit yours :-)
*** Bonus for 2012 ***
12. I believe in giving people the benefit of the doubt and having patience with others.
Shirley´s (Golden Dreemz) Questions for me
1. If you won the lotto, what are the top three things you would use the money for?
- After giving my Tithe and putting a fraction of it into a savings account that would acquire some interest. I would #1 BUY A HOUSE with a yard :-) #2 Open an online store and #3 I would go crazy and splurge !!!!
2. What was the best gift you gave this Christmas?
- This Christmas was very tight financially, nothing new, So everything we gave was handmade, I really enjoyed making each and every one.
3. What was the last thing that made you laugh hard?
- I don´t remember what it was, but I was talking on the phone with my sister... we always have a good laugh about something.
4. What is your favorite recipe or food?
- ICE CREAM, If I could eat it every day, I would. seriously. The other day I thought that being an ice cream food critic would be a pretty cool job, but than I realized that I would have to eat all different flavors and weird combinations, so that wouldn´t work out. I like to stick with vanilla, strawberry and cookies n cream :-) Oh my soul ... I could I can eat a whole container of Eddy´s Cookies-n-Cream .... I am drooling right now because I haven´t had any since June.... Why Spain? why don´t you have the one thing I love ????????????
5. What do you do when you're stressed and need a moment?
- Since I am a SAHM (Stay at home Mom) if I am the only adult around, there aren´t many options... Usually I just go get some fresh air, or take an extra long shower or read.
6. What are you working on for self-improvement in 2012?
- I am going to work an speaking my mind and not being such a push over (in the right situations of course, I am not talking about being rude and disrespectful to others). I have realized that I have certain bottled up feelings toward people, and it is because I do not always tell them how I feel about something.
7. What happened in 2011 that you will definitely do again in 2012?
- I will enjoy God´s Creation more... Since college and working and having a baby, i don´t get out into nature much, but I love it. It is such a breath of fresh air in comparison to the hustle and bustle of life.
- And I will take even more pictures ... I did better in 2011 than the previous year, but I can definitely improve.
8. What won't you do again in 2012?
- I won´t worry about what is out of my control
9. What is your favorite blog post of 2011 on your blog?
- I would have to choose My Long Labor and Delivery Story, I am glad I took the initiative to write down a very special memory.
10. What is your favorite blog post of 2011 on someone else's blog?
- I honestly don´t have an answer to this question. I have read so many amazing blog posts this past year.
11. Do you believe we'll still be here by the end of 2012? Or are the Mayans right?
- I believe that the world will be over when God decides. It can be any day now,,, So as much as I would love to be certain I will live to meet my great grandchildren, I know that It can be any moment, so I will take advantage of NOW !!!
