* Post these rules.
Here are eight random facts about me.
1. I used to be a huge fan of the Disney Channel. To clarify: This was between the ages of 17-19. I loved to get ready for the day while watching the cute kids shows- ie: Bear in the Big Blue House. Call me crazy... I guess I was prepping to have little kids, or something.2. I'm terrified of the ocean! When we were in Mexico a few weeks ago, I refused to go snorkeling with Ben because I am afraid of what I might see! I'm scared of weird fish or stingrays, or whatever else might sneak up and bite my toe! To sum up: I'm particularly scared of deep waters in which I can't see the bottom.
3. I bounce back and forth between super productive and super lazy. If only I could find a happy medium between the two, I would be soooo pleased with myself!
4. I used to be a huge basketball fan! My dad really got me excited about the NBA, particularly following the Jazz back in their glory days with John Stockton, Bryon Russell, and Karl Malone. :) I even subscribed to ESPN magazine for a time... partly because of my odd dream of becoming of sportscaster alongside Dan Patrick. This is why I minored in Communications, I guess.5. I am so happy being a mom! I taught elementary school for a couple of years before having Emma and I feel like motherhood is everything I enjoyed about teaching (plus more!), but without all the stuff that I didn't like about being a teacher. I get to make up daily routines and organize my home the way I want (which is a lot of what I enjoyed about running a classroom), but I don't have to deal with other people's naughty children. :)
6. I've had a cough for the past 10 months.... I'm in the process of trying to get a referral to a pulmonologist.
7. I am deathly afraid of spiders and other creepy crawly things. Ben once showed me a picture of a scary spider while he was studying about various insect bites. The picture caught me by surprise and I started crying. I'm a mess.
8. I have an aversion to seafood, and any meat that is served with bone. I have never prepared any type of fish for dinner (I told Ben that if he wants to eat any type of seafood or any meat other than chicken breasts or ground beef, he has to make it himself - is that mean?)

Hi Sue, Your so sweet for not tagging me. Who starts these things, I wonder.
ReplyDeleteI hope you can get that cough taken care of, 10 months is outrageous!
Your list of personal facts was interesting. Your fears aren't to unusual. I hate spiders too!
Maybe you should snorkle with a harpoon gun, hehe.
I hate meat on a bone too...eww
ReplyDeleteAlso I have the deep water, things swimming by my feet fear thing too.
It was nice to learn a bit more about you!
This is fun! We actually have a lot in common, Susan. In particular, I am so glad to be done teaching; other people's kids were driving me crazy, as well! Rachel Olsen already tagged me, actually, so I have my eight things up on my blog. We can count them for both taggings, though, can't we? :) Take care of that cough!!
ReplyDeleteYes, KelliAnn... I would say that counts for both. ;) You are so popular... getting tagged twice!
ReplyDeleteI'm so with you on seafood, and meat on the bone!!! I also make Matthew cook his own!! ha ha!
