DAY 1- 60 day photo challenge

MAY 21, 2012
DAY 1 of the 60 day photo challenge


Day 01 - A picture of yourself with fifteen facts.



1.  I love shoes and clothes.  I have at least 3 dozen pairs of jeans and shoes...  at least 4 dozen pairs.  When I left my ex-husband, I threw away 30 pairs of shoes because I didn't want to have to figure out where to put them. 

2. I love to travel and would some day love to visit Europe.

3. I used to be pretty athletic.  I used to run the 400 m (1/4 mile) in 59 seconds.  I'm trying to channel my inner athlete again.

4.  I studied for 2 years to be an accountant.  Decided it was too boring.

5.  I also wanted to be a teacher when I was a kid.  I probably should have gone that route.

6.  I was hit by a car, while I was on a bike, on Valentine's Day 2005.  My husband, at the time, refused to go to the hospital with me (he was on the computer, my friend went with me).  6 years later to the day, I married my best friend (not the one that went to the hospital with me).

7.  I love to sing.  That is not a little known fact.  My entire family has to endure it daily, almost constantly...

8.  I got pregnant with my son before I was married, "forcing" my parents to quit going to their church.  I apparently ruined their lives...  This is where I pray I never treat my children this way, no matter what they do in life.  Every one deserves mercy.

9.  When I got married, 3 months pregnant, I weighted 103 lbs.  When I delivered my son, exactly 6 months later, I weight 202 lbs.  I know...  impressive.

10.  My 3rd child was born across the country, 1 month over due (my original due date- 10/16, delivered 11/28), weighing in at 11 lbs. 5 oz.  One of the scariest memories to date.  

11.  I have visited 38 of the 50 states and Washington D.C.

12.  I got in a fight in high school.  The girl was being obnoxious, in my face, calling my friend and I AWFUL names.  I decked her and she fell into the wall behind her.  For some reason, she never spoke to me again.   

13.   I broke my tailbone in the 6th grade, falling off the top of a cheerleading pyramid.  I have paid for it nearly every day since.  

14.  I have an addiction to Starbucks coffee.  They put crack in it.  That justifies my addiction.  Am I wrong?

15.  I can sew.  Well.  And almost anything you can think of.  It's really a curse.  People come at me with the weirdest things to make/ fix.  I have to make a pair of rip away jeans for a guy to wear over his sparkly thong.  Don't ask....
