I got blog-tagged again. This time by Wife and Mommy. So, here goes…
Favorite food?
If I had to pick ONE style of food to call my favorite I would say Southern Home-Style. I could make a meal of fried chicken, macaroni and cheese, butter beans and biscuits. All homemade, of course. For dessert, I would probably pick pecan pie. I don’t have just one favorite food, but Southern food is comforting to my very soul.
Quirks about you?
I can’t stand having water on my face. I am constantly drying my face off if there is water on it like when swimming. Something about water being on my face makes me crazy.
I have to have covers on me to sleep. Preferably more than just a sheet. So, when it’s hot that’s tricky, but I manage.
I rearrange eggs in the carton so that the carton is “balanced” when I remove eggs from it.
How would the person who loves you most describe you in ten words or less?
I am going to ask Mickey this later and edit my post with his answer.
Any regrets in life?
You know, there are things in my life that I wish now that I had not done. But, I am blessed to know that all is forgiven. I hate to have regrets because I got to where I am today by going down the roads of yesterday. I think it’s better to learn the lessons and move forward in a positive direction than to remain hung up on regrets.
Favorite Charity/ Cause?
Lighthouse Family Retreat
The Lighthouse is incredible. I haven’t been on a retreat in a few years, but it will always be near and dear to my heart and I hope to go on another one some day.
Something you can’t get enough of?
Family time
Worst job you’ve ever had?
I worked at McD’s for a very short time my senior year in high school. It was awful. I had $10 stolen from my purse my first night on the job. It was just not a good experience at all.
What job would you pay NOT to have?
I don’t know. If God called me to any job, I believe He’d equip me for it.
If you could be a fly on the wall, where?
I always say I’d like to be a fly on the wall at preschool so I could watch the girls without them seeing me. I love watching them interact with others and it would be so cool to have that opportunity for extended times.
Favorite Bible verse right now?
Many are the plans in a man’s heart, but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails ~ Proverbs 19:21
Guilty Pleasure?
Frappucinos from Sbux. Although today I got an iced coffee because it was free. Gotta love free.
Got any confessions?
I have accomplished almost nothing today and I don’t feel that badly about it. 😉
If you HAD to spend $1,000 on YOURSELF, how would you spend it?
I’d update my wardrobe, for starters. I’d also get a massage, faci and pedicure. And, I’d take my husband on a fabulous overnight date night.
Favorite thing about your house?
We just love our house. We love that it has a basement/play room, a study, a family room and a nice big kitchen.
Least favorite thing about your house?
Well, the back yard is coming along, but could still use some major work.
One thing you are bad at?
I am really bad at staying ahead of housework. Or even keeping up remotely.
One thing you’re good at?
I am good at cooking.
If you could change something about your circumstances, what?
I would love to have our home be in another school district. Our elementary school is great which is nice, but our high school zone is not desirable, really. But, we have a few years yet to think about that.
Who would you like to meet someday?
Mark and Katharyn Richt
Who is your real life hero?
Mickey because he is the best husband and family provider I could ever imagine. He does so much for our family and works so hard for us. He’s amazing!!
What is the hardest part of your job?
Keeping the kids from being bored and keeping us from being in the poorhouse.
When are you most relaxed?
When things are in order at home.
What stresses you out?
Big messes which seem to be everywhere
So, if you are reading this and you have a blog…consider yourself TAGGED!!!
