A couple of years ago, there was this silly little “25 Things About Me” thing going around on Facebook. Well, eventually I succumbed to the pressure and joined in making my list.
I found the list recently, and it hit me that it might be fun to share with you, my readers, to give you a better picture of who I am.
I have eliminated a few things so as not to bore you…and because a few of the items no longer apply since I wrote it almost two years ago.
So without further adieu…all you ever wanted to know about me and more!
- I have been to South Korea, North Korea, Portugal, Spain, France, Switzerland, Hawaii (that’s a foreign country in my eyes!), Australia, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, St. Thomas, St. Maarten, the Bahamas, and Mexico and Canada, of course. My favorite was Australia. I would still like to go to Africa one day.
- I had a variety of jobs while in college including: a Friendly’s waitress, a telemarketer, a foam hanger packer, and an RA.
- I could eat Frosted Mini Wheats for breakfast every morning.
- If I could get away with it, I would also serve Frosted Mini Wheats for dinner. I am not a big fan of cooking. I am, however, a big fan of E-Mealz.
- If I could be anything when I grow up, I would have a hard time choosing between a television talk show host and a star on a sit-com.
- My husband and I dated for four months and were engaged for four months. That would be 8 months total.
- One of the qualities I admire the most is the ability to communicate well while thinking on one’s feet. I would love to be able to do that better.
- Two of my goals in life are to go on another cruise and to learn how to raise one eyebrow.
- The highest compliment that you can pay me is to tell me that I am funny.
- I love coffee. Particularly Dunkin Donuts French Vanilla coffee. With Cream and Sugar. Please.
- I am a dreamer, by nature. There are days this is good. And there are days it it not.
- I love that both of my boys have blue eyes although no one in my immediate family does. Thank you, Grandpa Hill and the Ehret family.
- I have run a half-marathon in NYC. I hope to do so again and finish with a better time. Someday.
- I was in the Scripps Howard National Spelling Bee in Washington, DC in 1990 (which is why I was so embarrassed when I wrote a post the other day about “Cheep Green Giant Veggies”).
- I am fascinated by people and learning what makes them tick.
- Becoming a mom has taught me so much, but possibly the most important is to work hard to live in the moment.
- I hate shopping. (Kind of ironic, huh?)
- I am the third of six children and a classic middle child: peacemaker, independent, easy-going and still craving the spotlight that I seemed to have missed.
- I am most happy when I am with my family. But I absolutely love to be alone as well.
- I love Jesus more than I can say and strive daily to be more like Him.
How about you? I’d love to know a few fun and random things about my readers as well!
