I have been desperately trying to get a post up in the past few days, and frankly I can't get my thoughts organized.
So to embrace and celebrate my absent mindness I am going to inform you of random things you never ever thought you would want to know about me.
So, with out further ado....
I can eat breakfast food any hour of the day....seriously. I am eating home made cinnamon rolls right now for dinner.
When I start to feel bad about my situation in life, I turn on TRU TV and watch some COPS....that is an instant self esteem booster.
I cannot bite a banana....I just can't. It is nothing sexual...I just don't like the way it feels. I have to break off a portion of banana and eat it that way.
I refer to myself as 'the traveling cirus'. I show up with my car full of stuff that can educate and entertain you about your dental health.
I cannot stay asleep unless I use benedryl....I am not sure if it is a mental thing now, but I take just one small pill every night.
I have aged more than 10 years in the past 7....
I have a mean cat who has suddenly started liking people. Now that I like her, she will probably die...
As a kid - I only had one grandparent. My Father's parents passed away while my dad was a young man....and my mom's father passed when I was one....Sadly my grandma passed when my child was 1....I am thankful for my husband's grandparents....and oh the stories they have!!!
I secretly love 'House' - my husband knows of my wanton love affair with this man....Hugh Laurie....and he accepts it for what it is.....guess it isn't so much of a secret anymore, huh?
I belong to a secret sisterhood of police wives....we 'get' each other - which is saying ALOT.
I am a very auto-pilot person in the mornings....don't mess with my routine.
I hate cleaning - I could do it a little at a time - but usually wait until I need to do a lot, so I can focus on it for hours....and then I crank the music.
My baby learned to say 'Hello' because I listen to Bob and Tom in the mornings...not sure which is better - him learning it from me talking on the phone so much....or Bob and Tom...
I think I might enjoy my son's video game more than he does....and take it way more seriously.
My sister and I have the same birthday....kinda cool now....not so much when I was younger.
My dad and I were on a retreat when we found a dead body in the river. It brought back alot of bad memories from his military days. It did bring us closer together though.
My dad taught me to talk to anyone...and it aids me well. He also taught me to listen to that gut feeling. I do it on a daily basis.
Only my hairdresser and me know how much gray hair I really have.
My almost 7 year old rocks out to Bon Jovi and AC/DC....
I haven't been to the movies for almost a year.
I crave sleep. On a constant basis. Everyday.....even now....at this moment....
I am a creature of habit - I go to resturants not to try new things, but to have favorites.
I grew up raising cattle - only a few each year - but it was enough to ruin me for 'cheap' meat.
I have started cooking in my crock pot more often, and love it.
I still wonder some days how I got so old.....and why it has been almost 9 years since I have had stitches....now that I have said that.....
I have had to make the decision about my son being an organ donor...having that conversation was hard to do - even harder was asking my son what he would want to be done. Thankfully, he was in agreement with us.
I have more money in my fridge than most people. One vial of my son's shots cost about 3 grand.
I don't untie my shoes when I take them off - and it drives my husband nuts.
I have a bad habit of leaving cabinets and drawers open just a smidge...my husband comes behind me and is past saying anything - but still shakes his head....and will shut it.
I threaten my husband at least every 6 months that I will clean out his clutter - and it will involve a trash bag and eBay...
I like my living room with out the baby toys, but have more peace with them there.
I love the age difference between my boys.....
We have double standards in this house - we force our child to take his shoes to his room - but ours stay where they land.
I am a list maker....and I love love LOVE crossing things off on my list. Sometimes, I add things to my list that I have already done, JUST so I can cross them off.
I have never done any kind of illegal drugs, neither has my husband...and it makes me proud.
I never thought I was a dog person, until we got our first dog....it has been almost a year since Chance died, and I still think of him numerous times a week - and still get sad. I didn't know it would hurt this long. I hold onto the thought that we will be together again.
It wasn't until I uttered the words 'I am glad I have no one to answer to' that I met back up with my now husband. From that moment on, we both just knew.
The only horse drawn carriage I have ever been on was on my 22nd birthday, less than a month after we were married.
I must say folks - I have a doctors appointment tomorrow - and I hope I can get together my rambling thoughts....
