25 Random Things About me

I did this for my friends on Facebook who were bugging me to complete it. It took so much time, I decided to post it here too. At least get the mileage out of my suffering through it. Hopefully, these are random enough that some might surprise you.

25 Things About me

1. I have a very traumatic memory of Brussel Sprouts as a kid. I have had therapy, but I still can’t look at them without feeling insecure and sick to my stomach.
2. I believe in the power of positive thinking.
3. I am hopelessly in love with my dogs.
4. I love to have people over, for drinks, for dinners, to hang out.
5. I think sometimes your friends can be more like family to you than some of your family.
6. The day I got married I was scared to death I would screw it up.
7. I believe in Angels, Ghosts, Jesus and Reincarnation and no matter what your religion is I don’t believe you are wrong.
8. I love to run, drive fast, and listen to loud music.
9. I love having my kids around, but a lot of times I am desperate for a quiet moment.
10. I cuss a lot... in front of my kids, and I don’t feel guilty about it.
11. I am a Colorado Native and I hate to ski. I’m the “sit in the lodge, with a cocktail” girl.
12. I used to own a V8, green Mustang Convertible with brown leather seats and I really miss it.
13. I think my sister and I are really twins born 15 months apart.
14. My husband saved me from myself.
15. I am a better person than I was when I was younger.
16. I hate cats and thought it was funny when mine got eaten by a Mountain Lion.
17. I think I’m really funny, and I love people who make me laugh.
18. I HATE doing laundry more than anything else. Ridiculous, never-ending, mundane, thoughtless task!
19. I love to paint. Not pictures but rooms in my house, because that is a task you can complete and I love the feeling when it’s all done and looks different.
20. I like to change my hair a lot just to add a little excitement to my husband’s life, although I’m not sure he even notices anymore.
21. I know what a really bad day is so I have no patience for people who are always finding something to complain about.
22. I believe you can tell everything about a person by whether or not they smile easily and by looking in their eyes.
23. I love to learn new words, try new foods, and go to new places.
24. I often have too much on my mind and have trouble focusing on one thing at a time.
25. I really, really like to make shit up. Have a complete fantasy life going on in my head. Go to places where no one knows me and pretend to be someone different. Lose myself in good books or good movies. I love to tell stories.
