Since I have been tagged in several of my friends notes (and enjoyed reading their lists of random things) I thought I should compose my own list as well.
1. I love camping and can't wait to do more of it with our kids.
2. I played a lot of sports in school, but loved basketball and volleyball.
3. I had perfect attendance for most of my school years...K-12.
4. When Mike and I got married, I owned most of the tools in our household. Mike is probably catching up by now.
5. I've never had a cast and the only stitches I have gotten are from my two c-sections.
6. I love pouring rain, especially accompanied by thunder and lightening. I'm not fond of drizzling rain.
7. I had my hair cut so short in 7th grade that I got called a boy. I never cut it like that again!
8. I love my grandma's brownies. I have her recipe, but they are never quite as good.
9. I've never been good at videos games...until the Wii came along.
10. Seaweed really, really creeps me out. So do ticks. They are not related in any form, except they creep me out.
11. I love pens (and pencils, markers, etc...) In fact, I bought 6 this week. :o)
12. I miss Canadian winters (for short, brief periods of time.) There's nothing quite like walking outside and not being able to breathe because it's so cold.
13. I am supposed to wear orthodics in my shoes...but don't anymore.
14. I've been bit by spiders, mosquitoes, sand & horse flies, ticks, leeches, fire ants, cats, my children, and even a field mouse!
15. I've had one speeding ticket in my life. It left me so flustered I forgot I needed to fill up with gas...and ran out 30km down the road. Talk about a bad day!
16. I went to a private boarding school 5 hours away from home for grade 11 and 12.
17. I was once suspended from the above boarding school in my grade 12 year. Not my proudest moment in high school.
18. I sometimes have freakishly physic dreams...that are incredibly detailed and end up coming true - sometimes years down the road.
19. I hated avocados before moving to Texas...now I love them, especially on my salad.
20. I have loved helping my dad work on cars in the shop since I was a little girl (hence all the inherited tools...)
21. I sang in several small acappella groups in my high school and college years...and toured a lot of Canada and the northern US as a result.
22. I used to love playing Oregon Trail in elementary school.
23. I like shooting guns. Once I even out-shot my husband at the firing range.
24. I was 20 the first time I flew on an airplane. My children were both less than 3 months old the first time they flew.
25. I've touched a giraffe's tongue (while feeding them crackers at the Abilene zoo.)
