- I have a lot of hair - thick hair, and it drives me NUTS! My face is hyper-sensitive to the feeling of things on it and if I have hair on my face it makes me crazy. Static-y hair makes me extra nuts. If my hair is long enough - it's generally in a pony tail, and if it's short I can be found at home with those elastic/fabric headbands on to keep it off of my face. I'm kind of fanatical about it.
- I don't like to try something new unless I think I can master it. This fear keeps me from trying a lot of things I'd probably enjoy.
- Right now my backyard (and front yard) is full of tumble-weeds. I'm not sure where they came from - but I need to take care of them. Apparently waiting for the next wind to come and whisk them away isn't working for me...
- I went through a phase where I didn't make my bed. I think it was a rebellion - just to prove that I was an adult and could leave my bed unmade if I wanted to because I was in charge. Then one day a friend of mine (Tammy Jensen) made the comment that "If I make my bed I feel like at least I got one thing done - at least my bed is clean and neat - even if the rest of my life/house isn't." After that everytime I'd look at my bed unmade I'd think, "I can't even get my darn bed made - I'm a mess!" I'm pretty sure that ever since that comment my bed gets made almost first thing every morning. I kind of laugh about it actually. Thanks Tammy!
- I would love to be a professional photographer, a labor and delivery nurse, a graphic designer, or an "idea person". I am really good at looking at *other people's* businesses and thinking of awesome marketing ideas for them - however, if I try to work on our own business there is a major block and I can't figure things out. However - if you want to ask me how the local pizza place could increase sales I have an earfull for ya. Also - I don't want to have to implement the ideas - I just want to be paid for my brilliant IDEAS.
- People *think* I am organized - it's all a facade. Underneath it all I'm a bit crazy and a total mess. You would know this if you looked at the piles on my desk and kitchen counter right now. I do dream of being organized though - labels on everything, millions of rubbermaid containers for everthing to be seperated into....ah....Oh - and I am slightly OCD about piles even - if they are stacked neatly I can handle it - but if things aren't lined up and straight - it makes me nuts.
Just a spot for us to blab about what's going on with our family, share ideas and post some scrapbook pages along the way. Most importantly share pictures of our sweet kids for family and loved ones to share our journey with us.

My neighbor in Pleasant Grove gathered up all her tumbleweeds and spray painted them orange for a pumpkin at Halloween, then she added giant feathers and turned it into a turkey for Thanksgiving.
You should be able to gather them into piles and spray paint them to look like Easter eggs or a giant shamrock for Irish day.
I love that Hunter grabs Gabe and tackles him. I love it when big brothers and sisters realize "that baby thing" is now a force to be reckoned with.
I like the idea of the bed making. I still don't make my bed. Brian wasn't allowed out of the house as a kid unless his bed was made (well, neither was I) but I think he would probably like it if I made the bed sometimes. I just look at it as a timesave, cuz I never know when I'm gonna want to jump back in and take a nap. hehehehe
Love you, Aunt Charlotte
yay you played!!! I'm the same way about hair on my face - ack - hate it!
I make the bed (sort of--I pull up the covers and make sure they are all there since they have a mysterious tendency to migrate to my spouse's side of the bed :-)) because I like the sense of refuge and order it gives me when I next crawl into it. One of my favorite times of the week is Saturday when the sheets are clean, and all the blankets are smooth, and I even have a clean nightgown. It just feels like all is right with my world, for that tiny little minute.
Love, Sandra
I'd love to hear marketing ideas from you!!
