Randomness -Things I like, don't like and other stuff.

1. I will not worry about putting my kid in preschool...when the child is still an infant. Chill out and let them be babies. I know plenty of people who went to public school and they are successful by society standards. Whatever that is!?!?

2. I love chocolate everything, but I have a new passion for lemon desserts.It is almost a obsession.

3. I LOVE Dallas, but when I went home to Louisville. I actually said to myself "I miss Louisville." Yeah, I couldn't believe it myself : )

4. I hope I raise Liam to be a polite, well mannered well rounded child.
noone wants a hellion running around screaming lol.

5. I love traveling and dining out but have not been able to due to
financial setbacks. I hate money. The lack of it has kinda killed my spirit.
I feel no enjoyment in life anymore. The two things that I loved doing, now I cannot.

6. Brown is my favorite color. I could have every room in my house brown,
but alas, it is not practical. Wait I am not too practical anyway : )

7. I don't mind when Liam wakes me during the night. It is an excuse to spend time with him. Having a kid makes you love like you never have before.

8. I love old homes and architecture. It's like a breath of fresh air.

9. I love decorating. I am your go to girl. I love a myriad of styles.

10. I would love to be a party planner or a wedding planner or a interior designer.

11. My son has the best smile on the planet...hands down. Don't argue with me about this : )

12. Although I will never love cooking or be a good cook. I want to be a good baker/maker of yummy desserts for when my kids and their friends get older. I remember my mom would always make my friends and I Nestle Quick chocolate shakes during the summer. Good times.

13. I am so thankful we are starting to develop friendships here in Texas. It was lonely that first year without anyone and being pregnant without my moms daily support.

14. I am so blessed to have a child who only cries when he is hungry. Can self soothe himself and puts himself to sleep. I don't know how other parents deal with needy, whiny clingy kids. Definitely not my cup of tea. It is true that God doesn't give you more than you can handle. I am a laidback mom but sometimes I just can't handle the little stresses.

15. I am a dog person. If I had the funds and the room. I would go to the shelter and grab them all and bring them home. ADOPT A SHELTER DOG. STAY AWAY FROM BREEDERS PEOPLE!!! Too many dogs die because shelter dogs aren't given a chance for life.

16. If you have a dog, don't leave them outside. If you aren't going to spend time with them. What is the point of having a pet? Quit being selfish.

17. I love tomatoes but hate ketchup. I love cheese but hate cheesecake.I love all things potato EXCEPT potato salad (YUCK!).

18. I am a wonderful mom. Thanks to my mom owning a daycare growing up. I was around babies a lot. I learned a lot thru that experience. All the rules they have these days are ridiculous. Many parents back in the day didn't even know about those "rules" and we all turned out just fine. Follow your gut.

19. I want to furnish my house with Art Deco, MidCentury Modern, Bohemian and Hollywood Regency styles. It might take a while : )

20. The older I get, the more anxieties I collect. Starting a conversation with a stranger in terrifying. Yikes.

21. I hate it when people get in my bubble. Back up lady behind me in the line at the grocery I can feel your breath on my neck and it's annoying me...thanks.

22. I used to be a raver chic and breakdanced. Yeah, I was good. The best times of my life. Met some awesome people.

23. I sleep on my side or back in the dark with complete silence...or I don't sleep.

24. I am a beauty school drop out. I still can cut hair pretty good and am a color genius.

25. I am right handed.

26. I love the smell of gasoline.

27. When I was little, my sister was toting my on my bro's 10 speed and we were going down the big hill on our street and I got scared and tried to stop the bike with my foot, in the spokes, flipping us both over the bike and onto the ground. Ouch. But I got out of school for 3 days : )

28. Growing up I danced ALL the time and practiced gymnastics. I could have went to the olympics if I stuck with it.

29. My favorite book is "Be True To Your School" by Bob Green. Go read it!

30. I won the regional spelling bee when in 5th grade. I never had to study for spelling tests, even for words I had never seen before. I just seem to have known how they were spelled.

31. I love being around people but also need that alone down time just the same. If I go to long without interacting it makes me depressed. Surprised I didn't get Post Partum Depression.

32. Labor pains are the most excruciating pains I have ever expereinced. Glad I know the difference between Braxton Hicks and the real deal, but nervous now that I know the real deal and therefore have to wait until I have unreal pain to go to the hospital next pregnancy : (

33. I judge a restaurant by their queso.

34. I cried the first day of 1st grade. I didn't understand the idea of school and when I got home, I let my mom know I was displeased. I said "You left me all by myself downtown"

35. I love contrasting colors in all aspects of life.

36. I love Taylor Swift, don't judge me, she is good.

37. Porcelain dolls are freaky and shouldn't be owned by anyone.

38. I hate all things Harry Potter and Twilight.

39. I love taking pictures. Some have said I should do it for a living. Maybe down the road when I get more experience.

40. I have 2 brothers and one sister. I am the youngest.

41. I have 3 tattoos and would like a few more.

42. I can watch HGTV all day and never get tired of it.

43. I will still have bright red hair at a ripe old age. I don't feel like me without it : )

44. A few tv shows that I love. Six Feet Under, Modern Family, Sex and the City, Seinfeld, Dead Like Me, Friends, My So Called Life, and Will and Grace.

45. I started school so excited but my Learning Disabilty got the best of me. I am still hoping I can find someone in Texas to be able to help me.

46. I eat most of my food with some type of cheese, it just seems naked without it.

47. I will see the Maldives before they disappear.

48. Kevin and I plan on taking the kids, when they are older, on a Route 66 trip. It should be fun!!

49. My mind operates the opposite of most people.
