HAVEN is in 7 more days....
And I'll be in Atlanta, GA for my very
first bloggy conference.
I was nervous just signing up! You can read about that here.
Now, I'm getting ready to leave.
No wonder I've been a basket case lately....
Well, there's been a TON of stuff going on around here!!
I know that I'm going to meet so many amazing people!
I know that I'm going to learn so much!
I know I'm going to have the time of my life!
I know, I know, I know!
So why am I so nervous???
Probably fear of the UNKNOWN!!
I just need to take a deep breath and relax!
One of the ladies going did a post on 25 things about herself. I thought that was kinda neat. So, here goes... Can I even think of 25 "interesting" things about myself.... We'll see
1. I am a born again Christian.
2. I have been married to my best friend for 24 years.
3. I was born and raised in California,but have lived in PA for the past 20 years.
4. I wake up every morning and enjoy a cup of HOT coffee! Must be HOT!
Kinda scalding... :) Then a couple of more...
5. I don't make my bed everyday. In fact, I don't make it most days...
6. I think I'm ADHD or something like that. I get easily distracted and can't seem to finish projects. Either that or I'm just plain lazy. That could be true too.
7. I like to listen to music, but I prefer silence. I like it quiet.
8. Oh, that leads me to this.... I require large amounts of alone time. I really enjoy being by myself. Not all the time though.
9. I like to watch movies. My all time favorites... The Kingdom of Heaven, The Last Samurai, Lord of the Rings, The Blindside.
I could actually just keep going.... The Bourne series, RED, Killers, 27 Dresses...
10. I have 2 AMAZING kiddos! My son is 21 and will be a senior in college!
My daughter is 19 and will be a sophomore in college!
11. I love food. I just don't like to cook it. But I do like to bake.
Actually, I'm a sugaraholic.
12. I love Chinese food, and it must be eaten with chopsticks!
13. I had my first surgery this year, I had never been "under" before.
All went fine!
Ok... I've made it half way through...
14. I really like to garden. Even weed... I know, weird.
15. I'm addicted to Words With Friends! My highest word... I think it was 115. :)
16. Yes, I'm addicted to Pinterest too!! I'll probably never even do anything with all the things that I pin!
17. I like to read.
18. I don't do mental math.... Why? That's what calculators are for! I have an app on my phone!
19. Oh, I love to do puzzles! Gotta keep that brain active!
(Almost done! I can do this!!)
20. I love to go shopping! (I don't know too many girls that don't) But I'm cheap!! LOVE a good deal!
21. I love football! I could watch is all the time! Now, I've been a Cowboys fan forever... But I gotta tell you I've been thinking of switching teams...
Is that allowed?
22. I want to travel with hubby and see some amazing sights!! I'd love to see the Grand Canyon and Niagara Falls!
23. I love my church and church family! I really, really love them!!
24. I thoroughly enjoyed staying home and raising my kids. We even homeschooled for 5 years!
25. Last one....Hmmmm....I've never flown all by myself and I've never stayed in a hotel by myself and I'll be doing that next week at HAVEN!
I did it! It wasn't too hard! Hope you enjoyed learning a little more about how quirky I am.
I can't wait til HAVEN! It'll be here before I know it!
Have a wonderful trip! I like this list about you and will have to challenge myself to do the same. Not sure if I'll post it but it would be a good exercise for me either way.
