11 Fun Facts about me.

1- I love the color, purple.  Then a pure green and blue.  The basic colors.  And then I love pastels in those same shades.  In that order.
2- One of the past times I miss the most is clogging.  I really would LOVE to get back into it.
3- You'd think that, given my upraising, I'd be an "animal" person.  Nope.  Not a bit.  I'd be thrilled if we never owned one ever.  Only reason I want the cat we currently have is so he can kill any mice that decide to risk their lives by popping their heads in my house.  Mice and I just ARE NOT friends.
4- The Cosby Show has always been, and always will be, my favorite TV show.  I don't think anything will ever replace it.
5- I love just about any food out there.  Especially if someone else cooks it.:)  At least all the ones I know.
6- I absolutely despise being late, SPENDING MONEY, processed american cheese, and I'm not a cereal person either.  I can put up with cold cereal and every now and then want it for breakfast.  But hot cereal is nasty.
7- I am one of nine siblings and I have the most awesome family/in laws in the entire world!  They ARE my world.
8- About my inlaws, see number 7.
9- I'm LDS and happily so.  I will never deny my religion.  It is my everything.  And some people this way are referred to as "churchy" and serious.  This is who I am.  And again, I'm happily so.  And humbly too.
10- Some day, I will go on a cruise with my most awesome husband.  We're not sure if we'll go on the Alaskan, Carribean, or Mediterainean cruise.  But, I'd love to try out just one, at least.:)
11- My husband has surprised me twice in the last two weeks with something "just for me".  The last one he did was write messages on 23 different cleaned, smooth, rocks with permanent marker.  And then we drove around and spread some in the places that bring fond memories of us being together.  We have some left and are still spreading them out.  He's the best!  My world is better place because of him.  I love him deeply for ever and always!

Here are Lisa's 11 questions for me:

1- On average, how many texts do you send/receive a day?
It really depends.  I honestly don't know if I could put a number on it.  Some days, I will be lucky to do one or two.  And some days, I get 20.  I don't think I do much more than that a day though.
2- Are you a back/side/belly or fetal position sleeper?
Side.  Unless I accidently roll over on my back, which happens sometimes.  Never belly though.
3- Your true feelings on Facebook?
Yes.  I try to be positive on facebook.  And I am a very private person and don't like sharing too much with tons of people.  (Does that give you the idea that I may not put more specific things on this post?  Bummer, huh.:)
4- If you had a whole day to spend by yourself, what would you do?
Take a bubble bath, plan a fun date for my husband and fun things to do with the kids, call all my friends and chat, take myself out to lunch (assuming I have money to do so and it's just one day), watch a movie with myself, listen to General Conference online, and read a book if I can stay awake long enough.  I also may do some craft projects if there is enough time.  And I'd study the scriptures and write in my journal.  And then I'd clean the house.  Okay, so I need a week and not a day.:)
5- Favorite smell?
Narrowing it down to one is about impossible for me.  My husband.  Baby lotion.  Clean house.  Outside after rain.  Roses.  And food that I get to eat that I didn't cook.  Many more.
6- My first kiss story?
Just after my husband proposed to me.  About a month afterwards, he kissed me good night at the bottom of the stairs in "the big yellow house."  We told everyone we'd wait til our wedding day.  But, I was honestly way too nervous to have my first kiss when everyone was watching.
7- The pet peeves you never talk about?
The ones that involve people and that are judgemental.  There are things that bug me that people do.  But, I don't like to talk about them because they involve judgements that are probably not very fair for me to make.  So, those will remain quiet.
8- What does your closet look like?
Very clean.  Good time to ask.  My husband just deep cleaned it last week!:):):)
9- Makeup staple you can't live without? Brand and color, etc.
Eye liner is a must for me.  I don't look the same without it.  No particular brand, but brownish/black, or chocolate brown, is my color.  I've really started liking the liquid kind.
10- Do you REALLY floss and brush twice or three times a day?
Nope.  Doing good to floss once a day, and brush twice a day.  But I brush at least once a day.  Not doing it that often, to me, is icky.
11- Favorite name for a girl?
I have five of them.  But, I prefer to not put their real names up on my blog.  But, Lisa, if you're looking for some, talk to me. :)

My Questions:

1) What makes you happiest?
2) What is your favorite smell?
3) What is your favorite color?
4) Where do you like to eat out at?  Fast food, and sit down restaurant?

6) If you could choose one place on earth that makes you the happiest, where would you choose?
7) What is your favorite board and card game?
8) Do you have a favorite scripture?  Scripture story?  Please share.
9) What is your favorite inspirational thought?

Good luck.  And thanks for playing!:)
