ABC's of Me

I came across this little ditty on another blog site and I thought it was fun.  Often times I blog about the family but not about me.  So here are the ABC's of me...

A. Age:  Currently 33...in about two weeks I will be 30 (for the 4th time)  Yes, in my world I can turn back time

B. Bed size: Queen

C. Chore that you hate: Putting clothes away, not necessarily my clothes but everyone else's clothes

D. Dogs: Currently we don't have dogs because we barely have enough room for the kids.  I like dogs and  when we get a bigger house we will get another dog.

E. Essential start to your day: Tazo Chai Tea Latte with Soy milk...some people need coffee, I need chai (and now that I have a Keurig I have started drinking Tazo Zen, green tea)

F. Favorite color: Blue...it's my eye color and I think it describes my personality

G. Gold or Silver: Both...my wedding ring and engagement ring are a mixture of both

H. Height: 5-8.5  (good thing no one is asking about weight)

I. Instruments you play: I played tenor sax in 6-8th grade and have not touched it since.  My mom forced us to take piano lessons for about 6 months so I can kinda dabble on it too.

J. Job title: MOM...CEO of the home...boss

K. Kids: 4 blessings that are growing up way too fast

L. Live: Indiana baby!  I'm a proud Hoosier and wouldn't want to change.

M. Mother’s name: Mom, duh!  Oh, her real name, Janell.

N. Nicknames: Kate (aunt Cheryl & Anna), Katie Sue (my mamaw and some of my aunts on the Blackford side)

O. Overnight hospital stays: 5 (my knee surgery in 1995 & 4 births of my kids)

P. Pet peeves: Where do I start...people with a lack of commitment...people who pretend their life is perfect...maybe I should leave it at that;-)

Q. Quote from a movie: "You're reading your newspaper upside down, its gotta be better than fine." (anyone know?)

R. Right or left handed: I do everything right handed except for holding a baby and driving.

S. Siblings: I have 4 sisters and have gained 3 step brothers and 1 step sister

T. Time it takes you to get ready: Before children about one hour, I could get up shower and be out in one hour.  With children I do everything I can the night before so it really varies.  

U. Ultimate Vacation: Some day Hawaii...someday

V. Vegetable you hate: brussel sprouts

W. What makes you run late: my husband...

X. X-Rays you’ve had: besides my teeth...my back, my knee

Y. Yummy food that you make: Scotch-a-roos, bbq beef, ultimate nachos, layered dip, chicken and dumplings

Z. Zoo animal: I love to watch the penguins swim then jump out on land...cracks me up every time.
