A little about me...

Ok, so I have been tagged by three different people, all to list 6 things that are quirky about me or to just list stuff about me. SO Susie, Megan and Stephanie here you guys go! I figured since I was tagged 3 times that I would list 18 things.... have fun!

1- I enjoy going to the doctor and dentist. Weird I know. They have never bothered me, and never will.

2- I LOVE walking down the laundry isle at stores. I will walk down, stop and take a deep breath in. Mmmm....nothing better than the smell of clean!

3- I'm not a soda drinker. The only time I really have soda is if it's in the drink mix at like a baby/bridal shower or something. And if I drink it outside of those it's usually just a little sip... oh and it's Root Beer IF I take a little sip!

4- I love to watch scary/intese shows and movies, even though I will close my eyes and plug my ears at certain points.

5- I lived in Australia for 6 1/2 weeks, Singapore for 3 1/2 and took a weekend visit to Malaysia. It put the traveling bug in me and I am just dying to go back to all of those places... mostly Australia because my friend Durga lives there!! Shout out to Durga!! :) Someday we will make it back there.... someday!!

6- I LOVE boating activities...especially water skiing. My Dad has a boat and takes it out every summer. He is a fun driver! When I first tried to water ski I got up and stayed up. It wasn't hard for me, and never has been. Wakeboarding is a different story though. I have a hard time turning board.

7- I don't mind killing spiders but won't kill them if they are above my head. I am afraid they will fall on me! I usually end up using my swiffer. It has the flat bottom so I stick a paper towel on and SMASH that spider that is higher up than me! Take that creepy crawly thing!

8-I like Jelly Bellies. I hardly ever buy them. The only time I get them is when I put a quarter in the candy machine at work! I then eat my least favorite flavors, and always save the root beer ones for last.

9- I am very allergic to animals but grew up with them. We had horses, dogs, cats, chickens, a cow, goatsf and even somem ducks at one point. Since getting older my allergies have gotten worse. My throat will now close off and make it so I have to concentrate on breathing. Horses are the worse. I always use to go riding with my mom but the last time I did was miserable... even though I had loaded up on allergy meds! with the other animals I have to wash my hands after i touch them. It makes me sad because I love animals.

10-I love to sit down in my house/car after I have just finished cleaning them. It just feels so good and clean. It's also probably becuase I feel proud of myself for doing it. Speaking of which my car needs a cleaning...BAD!!

11-I love to give presents to people. I enjoy taking the time to make them cute with fun wrapping paper and ribbon. For holidays I like to give my family something fun. It just makes me happy to do it!

12- My handwriting changes. For the most part it's the same but some days I will write in cursive, other days it's more of the cutesy girly writing.. and other days it's just quick. It just rotates through several different kinds.

13- I have this blanket that I sleep with that is about 24 maybe 25 years old. It doesn't have any holes, and it's not my baby blanket. It's just a blanket that I have always used since I was little. It's the perfect blanket. It's a little bigger than queen size, it's not too thick and not too thin. It's a tied blanket and blue. I will have to find a pic of it! I LOVE IT!

14- I enjoy throwing baby/ bridal showers. It's fun for me to come up with a couple of different games, and to make the food. I collect platters for this purpose alone. I guess you could say I just enjoy to entertain. If I had a big place you could bet I would be putting on Halloween, Valentine, Christmas friend parties and any other reason to get my friends together for a fun time!

15- I love to read and collect books. Along with this I love to lend my books out so others can enjoy. I'm a small library with no late fees!

16- I love music!! If you pulled up next to me in your car you would most likely find me singing and rocking out to music! It's entertainment at it's best!

17- I have never put any kind of dye into my hair. It's all NATURAL baby. Same goes with my eye brows. They are different colors too. Funny I know!

18- And for the last one, I enjoy to cook but for some reason don't do it too often. Maybe because I feel it's harder to cook for only 2 people. Although I have made a resolution that once I start getting over this morning sickness and can actually eat more and stand smells I will be cooking more! I found a blog with tons of fun recipes.

Well, there ya go! I hope you all enjoyed getting to know me just a little bit better! I am heading off to bed. SO TIRED and have to work tommorrow!
