Twenty Five Things I Bet You Never Knew...

I was tagged on facebook to do the 25 Random Things About Me share list... I did it over there a week or so ago...but I thought it would be fun to revisit it here on my blog and do it again! I bet my answers will be totally different.

1. I am so thankful I found a place in the blogsphere.. it gives me an outlet for all those conversations I used to have in my head.

2. My family and friends are very important to me. I would kill for any of them...so don't cause trouble --okay!!

3. I really like to watch stupid reality shows on tv, like Bret Michaels and his Rock of Love Bus Tour and Split Ends - a show about hair dressers....mindless entertainment -- but it makes me smile.

4. When I was seven, I was outside watching my daddy cut grass, he told me to stand back, I didn't and a tiny piece of a rock came flying at my head... it cut my cheek, just a bit - I ran inside, cleaned it up and never told my parents...(until now!) Every time I watch A Christmas Story - I think of that.

5. I have lived in six states, and traveled to four foreign countries. I would like to travel more, but I am deathly afraid to fly!

6. When I was in high school I dated a boy who was one of four brothers. It made me want to grow up and be the mom of five children, all boys! I even had them named.... thank goodness God had a different plan!! I can barely handle the one girl I have!

7. I miss my dog Jake just as much today as the day we lost him. I don't think that hole will ever heal up in my heart.

8. I love, love, love, reconnecting with old friends - in real life, on facebook, anyway I can.

9. I can play the piano. I used to play for church and choir and such. I now only play for my daughter's listening pleasure.

10. I love to go to movies.... I love going with someone, but I can go alone and have just as much fun!

11. I read three to four books at a time.... I have a slight attention problem!

12. I do not like to put things away when I am done using them... therefore, my house gets messy sometimes. I am trying to do better and teach my daughter to not do as I do, but do as I say!!

13. My daddy is a preacher. I have always wondered what it would be like to be a rebel and the typical "bad girl preacher's daughter" but I was always too scared to do that . I was always a good girl!!

14. I am thinking this might be the year I go bad....hee hee!

15. I met my husband at church. I chased him until I convinced him to catch me -- mainly cause I liked the way his jaw moved when he chewed on a toothpick. CRAZY!

16. I always wanted to get married at Christmas...we got married in May - I still can't figure out why I didn't hold out for the Christmas wedding....

17. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday

18. My daddy will be 75 years old next week. I remember when he turned 50 like it was yesterday!! Twenty-five years have flown by!!!

19. My best friends now, were my best friends way back in high school ... I am proud that we are all still close.

20. I love pumpkin spice candles

21. I use Coconut Milk shampoo and conditioner - everyday! I love the smell!

22. I am 42 and feel like I am 18 most of the time.

23. My husband backed my car up the other day and ran it into another one of our cars, it cracked my bumper. I am so glad it was him and not me!!!

24. I can't remember if my first car was blue or grey... it was a graduation gift... I must be getting old.

25. My husband and I disagree on how to make macaroni and cheese. Most of the time I make it his way, but if he makes me mad...I will plan a meal on purpose and cook the macaroni the way I like it!! Tonight we had macaroni and cheese for dinner...I will let you figure out which way I fixed it!! It sure was yummy!!! :-)

Now.... give me your twenty-five!!!

Beverly!
