About Me

I have a hard time being myself sometimes. 

I am not always the nicest person. 

I don't always treat my husband the best. 

I let words come out of my mouth that I should fight back. 

I bite my tongue too often in situations where I should speak up.

 

I worry too much about how others will look at me if I... (Fill in the blank)

I don't read my Bible or pray enough. 

I like to control things in my life and not let things go for God to handle them. 

I need need NEED alone time every week or I go crazy. 

I am in chronic pain every single day of my life. 

I am learning more and more to cherish my friendships and the time I have with people...because life can change in an instant. 

I like to have an occasional drink and I love to dance. 

I have a serious love affair with all things Disney. 

I wasted a lot of time being obsessed over getting pregnant and freaking out over every possible symptom or everything I might have done wrong to possibly hurt my chances. 

I am a planner and I like to have my ducks in a row. I don't handle last minute plans very well at all. 

I physically need a massage every month. 

I tend to hope for the best but prepare myself for the worst these days, especially after everything I've been through in trying to have a baby. 

My heart hurts so much when my friends and family are going through trials and hard times. 

I have changed my eating habits so much this year and I don't even have cravings for Coke or McDonald's French fries or Jack in the Box tacos anymore. 

I can be very social, but I am definitely an introvert. 

My husband and I have gone through so much in the 8 and a half years we have been together, but we still love each other and wouldn't trade any of our hardships for anything. 

Witnessing my bestie give birth this year healed my heart in so many more ways than I ever would have imagined.  

I could read and watch Harry Potter over and over again and never get sick of it. 

I seriously wish every month could feel as special and magical as December does for me. 

I could definitely move to Colorado Springs in a heartbeat if God ever decides to call us there. 

I am a big chicken when it comes to deep water and going on rides where you fall straight down, but I have overcome my fears of speaking and singing in front of people. 

If every season could be pumpkin spice season at Starbucks, I would be one happy (and probably really unhealthy) girl. 

I am very guarded in sharing some aspects of my life, but have no problem sharing others. 

I really don't enjoy cooking very much because I'm too impatient for it. Yet I love to bake and have endless patience for that (I'm kind of an oxymoron). 

I can be very creative but it comes in waves. I used to be a big scrapbooker but I haven't started a new project in the last four years. I was on a jewelry kick for awhile but I haven't done that in a long time either.

 

I've had a hard time reading books since I first read the Harry Potter series. Comparing anything to those books just seems wrong (though I did really love the Hunger Games and Divergent). 

I used to save all of my movie stubs. I think I still have practically all of them from a 12 year period. I kind of stopped saving them after I got married. 

I have learned so much more about faith and trust and hope this year.

And I still have so much more to learn.
