quirks...

here is a fun little tag about my "quirks" that i found on angie's blog! let's give this a try!



1. toilet paper must be hung correctly! the correct way is to have the paper rolling from the top... not the bottom! it has taken me 6 years of "helping" kevin figure this out! but i think we've finally got it!



2. i have to go to the bathroom and brush my teeth before i can do anything in the morning!



3. i am a pack rat... but sometimes i get on these crazy cleaning binges and wipe out everything! that can be a good thing... but sometimes it's not often enough! lol!



4. i love making lists! i will make a list for any occasion! i love when i cross something off the list. if i do something that is not on the list... i will add it just so i can cross it off!



5. i love mugs! the minute it starts getting cold i have to start making hot chocolate! i have christmas mugs, valentine mugs, gilmore girl mugs and i just got a new pumpkin mug for my birthday! i can't wait to make my first batch of hot chocolate in my new mug!



6. i like the bed "made" every day! i am not too concerned about it being all tucked in and fancy-like, just make sure all of the covers are neatly brought up to the pillows! (another thing i am still working on with my cute hubby!)



i tag anyone who wants to give this a try! it's pretty fun!

middle name meme...

joy in the moment tagged me:

Players, you must list one fact that is somehow relevant to your life for each letter of your middle name.

J oy... life should be full of it!

O ptomism... is something i try really hard to have

A nn... is my very best good friend!

N ice... i think that i am

N aughty... sometimes

E ager... to help others

If you don’t have a middle name, use the middle name you would have liked to have had. When you are tagged you need to write your own blog post containing your own middle name game facts. At the end of your blog post, you need to choose one person for each letter of your middle name to tag. Don’t forget to leave them a message to let them know you tagged them.

I tag:

holly- because she doesn't have a middle name and it will be fun to see what she does

lisa- because she is so stinkin creative

maryruth- cuz she loves stuff like this...

melissa- just because! :)

have fun!

oh... and happy birthday to my aunt paula! wahoo!

i have been tagged!

ok... so i was tagged by joy in the moment to list 8 random things about my education.

so... here goes nothing!

1. when i was a kid i always wanted to be a school teacher.

2. i attended a junior college in my home town for 2 years. i graduated with my associates degree in 1992.

3. after graduating from ojc, i transferred to adams state college.

4. i was admitted to the education program and loved taking those education based classes.

5. some of my extra-curriculum classes involved the theatre department. i totally loved them! i loved it so much that i minored in theatre. i took: oral interpretation, voice for performance (this was my FAVORITE!) oh... those were the days!

6. as much as i loved some of my classes, there were a few that i didn't love.... i actually failed 3 college courses!

- P.E. for the elementary teacher
i am NOT athletic! not even at an elementary level!

- Math for the elementary teacher
i hated the teacher. and i was "sharing" my text book with my roommate- who wasn't talking to me for 4 months. i did retake it with a different teacher and passed.. C+

- Spanish 101
ya... i liked a guy who served his mission for the church in Venezuela, therefore he spoke spanish. i thought this would be a great way to get tutored and live happily ever after. ya... didn't happen. matter of fact, i was failing before i even took the final. i approached the teacher the week before finals and asked her if i got 100% on the final would i PASS the class. she said no, so i didn't even show up. ya... i was a little gutsy back then!

7. ok... so now you are learning that i was not a very good student, but i did love college. i had a super great social life! i made friends that will last forever! we had soooooooooo much good, clean fun! boy oh boy! i think that we only did one illegal thing...

8. after my mission i thought that i would try the whole school thing again. so i attended utah state university. that didn't go so well either. this time i was going to try family and human relationships degree. i totally loved the classes, but i did horrible on the tests and homework. i learned so much though! i wish i could just go to classes to learn, but not be tested. oh... and while i am wishing ... the classes are free!

ok... i tag: holly, brenda and maryruth
