On a roll.....

Well, I'm on a roll. One blog per month! I don't know how people do it blogging once a day or even a couple times a week! I'm just too busy!

So anyway, here's some trivial blogging! Everything that you didn't care to know about me!

**I love to play tennis! It is my all-time favorite sport to play. I am a total sports girl so I have lots of sports that interest me but tennis is something that I know I'll still be doing in my 60's and hopefully my 70's. I just love it, love it, love it!

**I am addicted to sweets. (if you know me this explains a lot I'm sure!) I need chocolate on a daily basis. I actually get headaches if I don't get my daily dose.

**I like to be right. Sometimes I'll fight to prove my point and then later find out that I was wrong. Serve me up a piece of "humble pie" please! I can be so sure of myself sometimes and then "BAM!" I'm wrong.... I just don't see it coming!

**I like to be in control. (just ask my kids) Whether it's a project at work or an event at church or my kids birthday party.....I have an opinion about how things should be done. Sometimes I just need to be quiet but it's not easy for me.

**I need to feel important. God help me the day that I don't feel like my children need me! It has been a real struggle letting go of my oldest son. He is technically an adult but I feel the need to tell him when I think he's doing the wrong thing or how to manage his time and money. I don't remember my parents being this way with me. I need a course in "letting go"!

**I hate to cook. I actually can cook but I really hate it, so I don't do it.....at least not very often. I know I am a big disappointment to my husband (who loves to eat!). If my family would offer to do the clean-up then maybe I would cook more. I don't know. It just seems like such a waste of time when I can buy something pre-made and frozen and just stick it in the oven. Anybody with me on this?

**I love to watch reality tv. There I admitted it! I have my DVR set to record almost every reality show that I can get my hands on. My favorites.....Biggest Loser, Project Runway, Top Chef, Survivor, The Bachelor, and on and on and on...

**I love to laugh! My best memories of my family or my time spent with Don always involves laughing. Of course living with Don is just one laugh after another! He is so funny! We pick on each other all the time. I have so many funny stories! One of my favorites is when he decided to pick on me one Sunday while I was getting ready for church. Here's what happened....we were down to one bathroom because we had a water leak in our bedroom shower so we were all attempting to get ready using just the hallway bathroom. I was to the point where I needed to curl my hair but the girls were ready so they were out of the way but Don still needed to jump in the shower. He usually locks everyone out when he goes into the bathroom so I told him to leave it unlocked because I was still getting ready. So he's in the shower and I'm curling my hair and from out of nowhere this "large" amount of water comes over the shower curtain right on top of my head! My first instinct was that I was mad because this was just going to slow down the process of getting ready.....then I thought "revenge". I think I yelled but I didn't really do anything in that moment, instead I waited for him to be finished with his shower. Once I heard him turn off the water I grabbed the shower curtain and flung it open! (Don is so modest that I knew this would really freak him out!) My plan worked! He freaked out and grabbed for the curtain.....before either of us knew what was happening he had pulled the shower curtain and rod down and had himself completely wrapped in it and to make it even funnier he had slipped in the tub and was laying on his side! We were both laughing so hard we were crying! I don't remember if we made it to church on time or not but we were still laughing about it during Connection!

Well I'm sure you're tired of reading about my worthless trivia so I'm going to stop! Until next month.......
