OK, I wrote this over 5 years ago - it's actually on this blog - about the 3rd or 4th post that I wrote. I was going to read my blog from the beginning (b/c, as usual, I have no interest in going to bed just yet), but got stuck on this post.
I could probably add quite a few more things, but will do that another post...
I was born Amy Elizabeth
I was born in Claremore, OK
I lived in Conroe, TX until I was 8.
Then I lived in Claremore, OK until I was 19.
I married when I was 19.
I lived in KS for 5 years
I’ve lived in MI for 3.5 years. I lived in MI for a total of 5 years. Since then, I've lived in New Hampshire for 2 years, Massachusetts for 1 year and am working on my 6th month in Missouri.
I was married in 1996.
I looked like a little Indian baby when I was born – very black hair, very dark skinned.
I am very fair skinned and STILL **naturally** blonde! , Ahem, not so "naturally" blonde anymore... : ( Actually, not blonde at all at the moment.
I was home-schooled for three years.
When I went into public school (6th grade), I didn’t know my times tables.
I sang in my school talent show – and won.
I sang at my high school graduation
I stunk at basketball.I played clarinet in band until 9th grade.
I was a “goody two shoes” in jr. high and high school.
I’m still a “goody two shoes”.
Therefore, I’m a pretty boring person!
I studied sign language for 7 years.
I’ve forgotten a lot of it!
I was the president of my church youth group for several years.
I won most spirited camper at youth camp.
I was asked to sign in front of the mayor of Claremore.
I met my husband at church conference.
After initial attraction, I couldn’t stand my (now) husband for two years.
After meeting again (those two years later), we were inseparable.
We got engaged 4 months after we started dating.
I almost hyperventilated on my wedding day.
My first real date was with my husband.
I’ve worked in a day care.
I’ve worked as a receptionist.
I’ve worked as a marketing assistant.
I only went to one year of college.
I am a SAHM.
I have three children.
My husband is my best friend.
I’m totally in love with my children.
I praise my kids all the time.
I believe in spanking. I should probably spank more!
I’ve learned that my kids aren’t going to be perfect like I planned!
I’ve also learned that that is OK!
Other than having my children, I’ve never been in the hospital.
I wear glasses.
I can’t see a darn thing without my glasses.
I have terrible teeth.
I drive a minivan - still drive a minivan, tho', it has gotten nice over the years!
I have a bad back
I have TMJ. (jaw problems) Happy to report, thanks to the activator method at the chiropractor - I no longer have issues with my jaw!
I didn’t have even a taste of alcohol until after I was married.
I didn’t get my ears pierced until I was 21.
I still very rarely wear earrings.
I love Mexican food.
I hate meringue.
I’m not a good housekeeper (just ask my husband!) - yeah, this hasn't changed much!
I don’t enjoy cooking.
I’m not a pet person.
I have bottle-fed calves.
I hate needles and am 7 years overdue for a tetanus booster. Finally got that tetanus nearly 3 years ago, I barely felt it.
I love action flicks.
I LOVED chick flicks until I got married. Now, they’re just ok.
I’m a good listener.
I LOVE the Phantom of the Opera (production and recent movie).
I think I could act a little if ever given the opportunity.
The car I learned to drive was a Ford LTD – big yellow boat.
Was an accessory to a forest fire when I was around 7.
I watch soaps. Not anymore!!
I can swim, only to save my life…I’m no fish!
I’m living proof that *nearly A*’s can sag. LOL
I’m my daughter’s favorite “daddy”.
I love to read.
I love to buy books off Ebay.
I love pecan pie.
I am starting to look just like my mother.
I never knew my paternal grandfather.
I shared a room with my three brothers for most of my childhood.
Except for one time when I was about 4-5 and until I married, I always lived in trailer homes.
After almost 9 years of marriage, I still don’t own my own home. Owned our first home in Owosso, MI for a WHOLE YEAR....home-ownership is way over-rated. LOL Won't buy again until Jeremy isn't traveling as much!
After almost 9 years of marriage, I’ve NEVER ONCE been mad enough at my husband to even consider leaving him. STILL TRUE - except it's now been over 14 years!
Divorce will NEVER be an option for me.
I refuse to let my kids CIO (cry it out). We're way past this....
I always rock my babies to sleep. Yep, we're past this too! LOL
I believe in co-sleeping and would love to just have a family bed. (I’d def. get more sleep that way!) Ok, seriously, we have what could be considered a family bed now, but HOLY COW - at ages 5, 7 and 9 - and two kids that were apparently leaches in another life, my views on co-sleeping have changed! Well, I'd still co-sleep with an infant or toddler, but SO glad we're past that...well, sorta past that....we're working on it!
My favorite TV show is Law & Order SVU My fave TV show? Hmm... that seems to change all the time. I am currently catching up on shows that were in prime time anywhere from 2-5 years ago! Some still are in prime time, but I like to watch from the beginning. Am very much enjoying Psych - nice, light-hearted laugh!!!
Never had a speeding ticket. Still "technically" not had a "speeding" ticket, but have had my first ticket - about a year ago...ran a red light. Seriously NEVER saw the light. Almost caused an accident. Did it right in front of a cop. Yep, proud moment for me - NOT!
My dream family vacation would a Disney cruise. Hmm...toss up between Disney Cruise and Hawaii...we're working on Hawaii.
I used to want to be Laura Ingalls Wilder. I'd wouldn't mind being Sidney Bristow. LOL!
I love clouds.
I would love to learn to line dance. (shh) and ballroom dance!, but I get too dizzy for this to every happen! One twirl does me in!
I love anything to do with lighthouses. I still like lighthouses, but not nearly as much as I used to..
I have tons of Inspirational Romance books. I've matured and now refer to them as Christian Fiction - haha...and have increased my library quite a bit!
I knocked my toe nail off while riding a bike when I was 7.
I can’t smell – unless very very strong odor – and then can’t tell if it’s a good or bad smell.
I hate for my toes to be pulled.
I crack my knuckles all the time.
I hate spending money. I just hate money in general...causes lots of problems. I think everything should just be free...BAHAHAHAHA
I want to lose weight, but am totally unmotivated. Sadly, this is still true. And sadly, the amount I want to lose has only increased. Sigh...
I just want my kids to be happy.
When my kids are sick, I give them anything they want.
