7 Little Known Things....

So I read on another blog about this idea of telling the world (Via your blog) 7 things about yourself that you think nobody knows! What you do is jot down 7 facts about yourself that very few people, if any, know. You then "Tag" someone that you know reads your blog, and they also need to be a "blogger." They then report 7 things about themselves and "tag" someone else. I have only ever had 1 comment on my blog therefore I only know of 1 person that has at least checked in on my blog! TAG to the BERNARDI'S! You are IT!!

1. I have not scrapbooked since Kylie was born. (2 years 3 months ago.) The reason being that I haven't had the time, nor desire, to set up my special scrapbooking table, get all of the stuff out, actually do the page, and then clean it all up. My time has been consumed with so many other things I just can't get around to doing it anymore.

2. My desk is filled with brand new scrapbooking "things"...most of them being adorable new born baby girl embellishments and papers. I would estimate at least $100.00 worth of stuff is just sitting there waiting to be used!

3. I am ADDICTED to caffeine. I get a severe headache if I don't have 2-3 glasses of iced tea a day. Iced tea is my drink of choice, I rarely have anything else. This includes water. (For those of you concerned about my lack of H2O intake....I have started this past week forcing myself to drink 3 large glasses a day....morning, afternoon, and night.)

4. I purposely keep myself overly busy when Chris is away on business trips. If I am frazzled and running around like a chicken with my head cut off, then I don't have time to think about him and miss him. It also makes the time pass quickly.

5. I have NEVER been frugal in my life. As a matter of fact, I tend to be wasteful with a lot of things, whether it be food, clothes, money, you name it. BUT....I have tried to consolidate my traveling as much as I possibly can. If that means getting all 3 kids hair cut in the same hour instead of 3 different days, or rescheduling a docs appt. for a day I know that I will be in town anyways. The $100.00+ it takes to fill up our truck is killing us! I am starting with our gas consumption and am slowly adding more "frugalness" in other areas to my life.

6. I married my absolute opposite. Chris and I have very little in common. BUT...the things we do have in common are our religious beliefs, parental guidelines, and political issues. In my opinion these are 3 of the biggest "Relationship Busters" and as long as we are on the same page with those...i'm not worried!

7. I would be lost without the internet. On a daily basis I check the weather for that day and the upcoming week, check my email, read about the local and world news, look up a recipe, and email a friend or 2. I can get more useful information from the news on the web in 15 minutes than I can in an hour watching it on t.v.

And for a bonus #8 little known fact about me......

8. I used to watch a TON of television, and by a ton I mean like 3 soap operas and 10+ t.v. shows that I just could not miss. Right now I religiously watch 1 television show at 9:00 on Monday nights. Other than that show I only watch t.v. at night when the kids are in bed. And really....its not any particular show. Usually I flip between The Food Network and Discovery Channel.

That's it...a few little known facts about me...i'd love to hear yours!
