25 Random Goodies

Crystal I thought your 25 random goodies was so interesting so I decided to do it myself!

1. I'm completely and utterly obsessed with the color pink. If it's pink (and not crazy childish) I will LOVE it!!

2. I've never mowed a lawn in my life. My mom said it wasn't a job for a lady.

3. Threw up so much as a kid that every Sunday my mom would walk me to the top of the hill and then my dad would pick us up and take us to church...or I would throw up every time. My mom also got really good at pulling the whole back seat out of the car and scrubbing it down.

4. I loved the idea of being pregnant...until I got pregnant. It's not nearly as beautiful and glamorous as Toy'R'Us and Enfamil make it.

5. I have an "uneasy" fear of heights and large masses of water. I can handle it...I just really don't' like it.

6. I order tons of pizza for my birthday every year.

7. I was terrified of learning to drive. I got my license when I was 16 but didn't actually start driving until I was 18.

8. I enjoy math - so at the beginning of a new school class I would go through the syllabus and figure out what assignments I actually had to do to pass the class and just do those. My motto was "C gets the degree!".

9. Never thought I would be married to a truck driver. I'd say I got a pretty good looking one though.

10. I love flowers. Levi doesn't' understand why and probably never will...he thinks they are too expensive and die too soon. I love them all the same though...especially roses!!

11. I love names! Nick names, pet names, middle names. I hardly call anyone by their "real" name. Ex: Levi: pumpkin, cupcake, goglie-bear, Clarissa (sister): Chico Marie Menendez, Daniel (brother): Danny Boy, Summer (sister in law): Summy Bunny, Blake (brother in law) Blakiepie

12. I balance my checkbook way too much and keep every single credit card receipt until the end of the billing cycle and then go through my statement and match up every single receipt. I also have to have a paper trail. I will write a check and use snail mail long before I will ever pay anything online.

13. I have the shortest torso in the world. I have about an inch maybe two between my bottom rib and the top of my hip bone. The average person has about 4-6 inches.

14. I'm a very un-germaphobic person. I like things clean for sure and wash my hands and all....but I'm not paranoid I'm going to get sick or catch some STD if I don't scrub and Clorox everything in sight.

15. I hate the feeling of rejection. I won't ask for fear of being told no. Well I just don't like asking for things in the first place.

16. I don't' understand why people obsess over celebrities, books, TV shows...c'mon people...let's live in reality.

17. I believe in being a women...being girlie and feminine and letting men be gentlemen. Chivalry is only dead if we allow it.

18. I love high heels. Especially pumps! The higher the better. Well 6" is getting a little high....

19. I wait until the last straw to take any medicine or go to the DR. I believe in letting my body heal itself...not sure where I got that idea but I really believe it.

20. I hate dirty fingernails. I carry a nail kit with me so I can have clean and well trimmed fingernails.

21. I love going to the D.I., Savers, or any other 2nd hand shop and finding an awesome bargain.

22. I'm not a huge fan of house cleaning...but it sure does feel nice when your whole house is spotless.

23. I wish I loved healthy food and working out....but I just don't.

24. I had serious stage fright as a child and all through school. I still have a hard time in groups of more than 3-5 people.

25. Finally, family is the most important thing in the world to me. Families are the building blocks of a society. When family fails the society will fail.

  1. I love high heels too. I say you always have the cutest high heeled shoes. Sometimes I wish I could wear taller ones, buy I try to keep mine less than 3 inches. I don't need to be as tall as an NBA player, you know? What a fun list of things! some of them I knew, and some I had no idea. Oh and by the way, congrats on having a boy! so fun!
