So it was my birthday this past week and all the sudden 30 doesn't sound too old! I'm not quite there yet, but I do remember the days where I thought that 30 was stinkin old and I just knew that I would never get to it. I've come to the conclusion that yes, believe it or not, I will hit 30; and I'm alright with it. I feel more in control of my life then ever before and I kinda like it.
So in honor of my 29th birthday I thought that I would post 29 random things about myself, please don't feel pressured to read them, this is also for my journal and I would have loved to hear little things about my mother at 29 and I think that my children might feel the same way... maybe not.
1. I'm in the process of making dresses for my girls, who would of thought?
2. I love preserving memories: hence blogging, scrapbooking, taking millions of pictures, video recording etc...
3. I'm trying, this is recent, to live a healthy lifestyle. I've changed my eating habits and I'm exercising.
4. I now tell myself "If you have time to: blog, watch American Idol, etc.. then you have time to read your scriptures."
5. My kids are my life.
6. I still adore my husband.
7. In order to go to sleep conditions have to be perfect: laying on my side, hair covering my ears, pillow in right position, legs shaved, teeth brushed, face washed etc..
8. Even with the conditions perfect I still lay awake at least a hour every night trying to fall asleep. Insomnia. I often think of names that start with the same letter to get myself to sleep. It's kinda like counting sheep.
9. I love the smell of lemon.
10. I hate waking up early.
11. My closet it always a mess.
12. My favorite color is yellow.
13. I hate banana flavored candy.
14. I've never broken a bone, outside of the rib I cracked while pregnant with Raegan.
15. My first cavity was at age 18.
16. I never had braces, but probably needed them.
17. I had to wear a patch over my eye to the first day of Kindergarten thanks to my baby sister scratching it.
18. I've had Shingles.
19. I love hot chocolate and drink it in the summer.
20. I don't dare to answer the door without my makeup on.
21. I feel guilty spending money on clothes or shoes for myself.
22. If you ask me my age, on any day besides my birthday, I will tell you 26, because I never remember how old I am.
23. I can't stand for my dishes not to be done.
24. Just last week I ate a handful of pistachios before noticing that a mouse had gotten into the bag and they were full of mouse poop. I thought I was going to die.
25. I'm somewhat of a Hypochondriac.
26. I hate watching the news, it depresses me.
27. I'm terrified of spiders.
28. I'm scared of heights.
29. I hate being recognized on my birthday, I don't want to be sung to, especially in restaurants and I would hate a surprise birthday party, I like to fly under the radar.
With that being said I know your thinking, then why does she post all this for her birthday? Well I can't just post all my families birthdays and not my own. So oh well.
