Okay, April tagged me, so here goes, by the way April, I really enjoyed reading yours!
100 -- I sometimes find myself singing along to Laurie Berkner even after Ben has fallen asleep in the car and that scares me...especially when Earle is singing along too!!
99---I load the dishwasher and clean the kitchen every night before I got to bed, or else I am annoyed at the situation in the morning.
98---I really hate putting laundry away!
97---I hardly ever iron, and if I do, it is probably for church.
96---I generally wash my hair every other day, and sometimes I wake up and realize it has been 3 or 4. (The big clip is handy)
95---If I had time, I could sit and watch the Real Estate channel for an hour...Earle has caught me before.
94--Some of my favorite shows other than prime time shows are: Any Rachel Ray show, Property Ladder, Hidden Potential, Flip this house
93--I occasionally have to pluck a long chin hair.
92-- I don't always use lady like manners at home...I sometimes fear what Ben has learned in that regard!
91--I like having fun with friends, both as couples or just girlfriends.
90--I often over analyze things that have happened in conversation with others and I worry about what people think about me.
89--I love being a mommy to Ben and Collin
88--I love being Earle's wife
87--Though I was blessed by being able to have my babies...I did not love pregnancy itself.
86--I think there are times in my life when looking back at myself, I was a little weird, and somewhat dorky. I worry about what others think of me now, if they only knew me during those times...college was one of them, high school was another, it is a good thing Earle and I hooked up after!
85--I was baptized when I was nine.
84--I have to admit at nine, I was a little excited about the communion cracker and grape juice...
83--I have always worried about my weight, but never the less, I love to eat! So I fluctuate.
82--My hot drink at Starbucks is a grande, nonfat, mint mocha
81--My cold drink is a Venti, Java Chip lite, with no whip(only 7 points for WW when I am counting....if I am really trying to be good, I will get the Mocha lite, only 4 pts. for the Venti.
80--I used to get starbucks everyday, but now I can't afford to get it that often with the two boys.
79--I like singing classical music, but I really don't love listening to it for a really long time.
78--I don't love to exercise but I try to do it when I can because it helps my day and I am good after.
77--I do love walking, especially on a cool fall day.
76--I have a hard time sitting and being still.
75--I started trying to read through my Bible in 2004 when I was pregnant with Ben...I am almost through it, I go through spells when I don't read at all, and sometimes only a chapter on the toliet...but slowly but surely, I am almost there. I just put my little ribbon in the spot where I am supposed to start next, and the Lord has kept it from coming out of its place.
74--I am very close to my family, but we all live far away.
73--I am the most close with my sister Lorie she is one of my very best friends.
72--I am not the best about keeping up long distance friendships, but if I really care about you, after a few years go by, you will hear from me. I am trying to do better about this...horray for Blogs and Facebook!
71--I love CHOCOLATE!!!!
70--I really hate RATS... and we had some in our garage when we lived in TX! I was horrified!
69--I am all about communicating and not really passive aggressive. It goes against my nature.
68--I am not really into politics, but around voting time, I always pipe in to make a somewhat educated vote.
67--I am always changing, my perspective always changes.
66--For some reason, I am really not a fan of Winnie the Pooh. I hate it when I am at Target and I see what I think is a cute outfit on sale for one of the boys, and then, Oh, well, it has Winnie the Pooh on it.
65--I love decorating my house, it just takes me a while to figure out what to do. I think I am acutally pretty good at picking out colors and stuff.
64--I love playdates, but I hate that many times, it is really hard to visit because the kids are going crazy!
63--Christmas is my favorite holiday.
62--I like to bake, but I can't keep it in our house, because Earle and I really will eat the whole pan!
61--I love my boys' feet, I think they are so cute.
60--I like people who are genuine, and don't mind just being themselves.
59--I admire my husband.
58--Sometimes..I can be a little bossy to Earle.
57--I am more of an organized person than I percieve myself to be. In order for me to not be a little stessed out about a cluttered situation, I like things to be about 15 min. away from being a pretty picked up house. Mondays can be hard, because I try not to worry about all the cleaning on the weekends.
56--I hate it when folded piles of laundry explode all over our house like little ant hills. Does that happend to anyone else?
55--I love it when my boys laugh.
54--I wear the ugliest things to bed...I really need some girl pajamas...poor Earle.
53--I realized today that I was high time that I threw away my pregnant undies, they are not very flattering and really way too big, even for spare pairs.
52--My favorite ice cream is mint choc. chip.
51--I have cut tags out of my clothes before if I am going on a trip so that people with me might not see the actual size. (Not as bad as Seinfeld scratching out the 33 and putting 32 or whatever)
50--I don't like really scary, disturbing movies.
49--I do like movies that are somewhat action/adventure with a twist.
48--I have two dogs, Max and Molly, and yes, I do still love them.
47--The dogs sleep in our room, and yes, sometimes our bed.
46--Because the dogs get on our bed, I have to wash our bedding often, so I never buy expensive bedding, because I replace it probably every year.
45--The first place I shop for my kids clothes are consignment stores. I look for things in the 2 dollar range or cheaper, if I get to where I am paying four dollars for a shirt, I take my 4 dollars to target and buy the shirt there.
44--I have decided that in most cases, shoes are easier to find at payless or somewhere than at consignment stores. Plus, you can't really skimp on the kids shoe size.
43--I generally never spend more than 20 dollars on any item in my wardrobe, unless my mom has gotten it for me. When first I enter a store, I go straight to the 75% off rack.
42--I do however think that a good pair of jeans, and a good bra are worth more than the 20 dollars.( those are the exceptions.:)
41--Earle and I did Crown Ministries when we first got married and we really try to keep ourselves in check with those principles...the link is provided to the right of the page.
40--Someday we would love to have no mortage payment, but that is still a very long way off. Other than that, we try to stay living debt free...thanks for Earle to teaching me, I knew nothing about budgeting before we got married...but as most of you know, he does all of the bills, and I think that is a great thing. I would hate doing myself. It is not my talent.
39--One of my favorite resturaunts is Carrabba's, and I have not had it in a long time. I keep moving to places that don't have one.
38--I love Qudoba...I wish we had one here.
37--I like spicy food...I can sometimes hang with the guys in that division.
36--I hate that I am having a hard time with more things...
35--I love being a mom, but it is definately not as easy as it seems...Ben teaches me new things everyday.
34--One thing I have learned this week from Ben is that he gives the most amazing apologies, I mean, he takes responsibility for what he has done and verbalizes it and tells you he is sorry, many times with no prompting. It has been an example to me.
33--I once had my picture in a Scotland newspaper with the Queen of England..and so did April...she stopped and waived at us.
32--I am a housewife that needs to get out once in a while....I like to keep myself busy.
31--I like to dance, even if I am not the best at it.
30--I have colored my hair since I have been out of college...but over the last year, I am back to my own....only to discover like 5 gray hairs?!!!
29--When I sleep at night I prefer that the sheet is not tucked in so that it does not pull my toes down.
28--I also like to sleep with one leg in the covers and one leg out of the covers, and when I am really sleeping, I can't be touching anyone.
27--I repaint over toenail polish many, many times before I actually take it off and start fresh.
26--I would love to get away with Earle, especially to Scotland, he has never been.
25--I am a little afraid of going on a cruise because of just being on water for so long and probably all of the scary left at sea shark movies like Open Water.
24--I am the tiniest bit afraid of flying, I am nervous every time.
23--I hate passing semi's on the road when I am driving, and I get nervous being the passenger of someone else driving by one.
22--I am nervous driving in heavy rain.
21--I don't think I will be voting for Hillary.
20--I am so thankful that God has blessed me with such a wonderful family.
19--I think I am really getting somewhere now.
18--I like to write poetry and stuff, it has been a few years, but I think I might be really good at writing sappy hallmark cards...seriously.
17--Generally speaking, I am not a touchy feely person.
16--Earle says, and I think he could be right, that I am not really as nice and sweet all of the time as people think I am. I think it just must be how my talking voice sounds.
15--I give side hugs.
14--I am already feeling bad for the people who have taken up so much of their time reading this.
13--It is morning now....I started this last night.
12--There are many more interesting things I could post here, but I am not sure they would be appropriate for everyone to read.
11--All four of my grandparents are still alive.
10---I love reading Sandi's Works for Me Wednesday
9--I am not a morning person...it takes me a while to feel like talking.
8--Earle and Ben are morning people, they talk a lot, so it can be a little conflicting.
7--It is now day 3 for the hairwashing.
6--I wear pretty inexpensive make-up...I usually by it at Wal-Mart.
5--I do splurge for Biologe Shampoo and Conditioner.
4--Collin is waking up.
3--We are leaving for a trip to TX today.
2--Collin was up much of the night with a cold.
1---I say "Halleleuiah, when I am scared and I sing strange high pitches when I hurt myself on accident!!!!!!!
