goulash

I wrote 25 random facts on FB a while back... I just read them and thought I'd change a few and add a few... just for fun!

• I LOVE sweet tea... and if it is decaf, it is just a bonus!!
• I used to cry a lot. And not necessarily because I was sad.... but I rarely cry anymore. Sometimes I worry that I have gone flat. Or maybe I have finally realized that I only have to care about Maddox and all the other details that have hurt my feelings and what not aren't really all that important anymore.
• I wish I loved my little Macy dog the way I used to... I love her-- but she slipped WAY down on my list.

• I hate checking the voicemail on my cell phone, It makes me sick to see that I have so many waiting so sometimes I just delete them all at once! I hate to answer my phone too... but I do enjoy the text. Please just text me!
• I never go a day without talking to my mom... or my friend Ponce.
• My friend Wendy and I can go WEEKS without talking and one phone call will bring us right back to the same page in minutes. I love her.
  
• There is nothing better than waking up to my sweet baby boy, playing in his crib and talking about his mommy and daddy.
• I am not athletic. Or fast. I don't work out. I can't even yo-yo!
• I have not worn a size 2 in probably 8 years... I should be pumped except I'm too broke to buy a new wardrobe.... so I hate it.
  
• I recently started eating shredded chicken again but I have not eaten ground beef in eight years.
• Lance has applied to well over 100 jobs without one damn interview. Why?
  
• I have never been fired from a job.
• I don't have any tattoos... I am not necessarily against them I just change my bedspread too often to permanently ink my body.
• I love soup. and avocados.
• My brother has a tattoo to represent my son on his arm... It is ridiculous how much I love my brother.

• I play the craziest scenarios in my head and think about how I would respond to them if they really happened. I can't decide if it makes me crazy or just prepared?!
• It is WAY easier to work when you don't actually HAVE to be there.
• My husband is hilarious. But I like to tell him he's not sometimes just to put him in check.
• I buy expensive makeup but use cheap shampoo.
• I have huge tonsils. I Love high thread count sheets. I over-use chapstick. I am random!
• I would have more kids than Brad and Angelina if I could afford them.
• I have taken THOUSANDS of pictures of my child and have printed off ZERO.

• I love Gateway church and the feeling I have when we leave.
• I am a really anxious person.
• I hate anything that flies or jumps... basically anything that I can't predict its next move.
• On taco night (or lunch like today) I eat my tacos: corn tortilla, beans, sour cream, lettuce, shredded cheese, and ketchup. It still grosses Lance out after 8 years.

• 3 separate people have told me that I am always "neat" and "put together"... I only took it as a compliment from one of them (Candace) who said I don't check the mail without looking nice. From the other 2, I think it was a way to say not pretty.
  
• My friends Candace and Holly are both very spiritually grounded and I trust their opinions tremendously. ...and they are both very different people.
  
• I love fall decorations but I hate Halloween decorations. I hate spider webs spread across bushes, tombstones, skeletons looking like they are crawling out of the dirt and most of all I hate those strains of pumpkin or skeleton lights that are only about 5 foot long and are notoriously planted off center in the flower beds. And I really hate it when people keep them up past Halloween...
  
• I have awesome friends. Like beyond amazing. They come from all walks of life and I love each of them for very different reasons. I forgot that girls our age can still be caddy, but I found out recently they can... mine aren't.

• The holidays make me anxious. So many places to go-- NEVER making anyone happy-- everyone saying that they understand but then back hand the conversation by saying they wish we could stay longer... I dread it every year. We said we would stop once we had kids... but here we go again.
  
• I wish I had a good up-and-down belly button... even weighing 8lbs less then when I got pregnant with Maddox, my belly button is still rather horizontal.
• I also wish I had those breastfeeding boobies back... maybe one day I'll buy a set.
• I am constantly in awe of my friends family around me... they make me proud-- and I should probably tell them more. My cousin Amber is graduating college this December, My bestie Wendy went back to school while a mom for her awesome degree... as is my friend Kimberly... I think I want to go back to school soon. When I can afford to.
  
• Lance and I took Maddox to the park today... we probably should have left the dogs at home but we all had fun!

• 
• We are having a Christmas party for our friends...festive clothing required and Chinese Christmas --Lance style! I need to get planning. It is going to be a blast!
  
• Sometimes it blows my mind how Lance is so opposite of me (ie: anxious) but so similar that it gets a little scary. (ie: very protective)
  
• I love my Mamaw... she recently turned 94!! Maddox was named after her.
