My old roommate, and dear friend, Bethy, tagged me days ago, and I am just getting around to it. So, here ya go. . .
The player list 8 random facts/habits about themselves
1- I love working out! You just wouldn't know it if you saw me right now. This cold Spring weather is really getting me down, and I can't seem to get the motivation up to get out there and run. Only 6 months until my next half-marathon, so I better get crackin'.
2-I'm an extremely paranoid, almost OCD mom with some things. I don't realize it so much, until other people (like my sisters) point it out to me. My kids seem to do a lot better with a routine and schedule, so I am a little rigorous about it. I also HATE germs, and dirty faces and hands. When my kids are playing in the dirt, I literally have to tie my hands behind my back so I don't bring them in and shower them down. No, we don't have a sandbox, although I know they would love one.
3-I can't seem to go to sleep before midnight, and this is a real problem, because I'm always very tired. Summer is hard, because some nights the kids aren't in bed until 10:00, and then it's my wind-down time with Jake. We lie in bed, and I talk Jake's ear off, or read, until I totally zonk out. Then, when Rohne saunters into our bedroom at 6:15 am, I really start regretting it.
4-I really like school, although I haven't been in it for about 8 years now. I would love to go back and get my Bachelors Degree. I am still kicking myself for not doing it before I had kids. I somehow thought that at least someone in the family had to work, and earn money. Silly me.
5-I know, deep down, that we are supposed to have more children. I try to be satisfied with my two, but know that it may not be enough. However, we will approach that subject later. When, it becomes unbearable to resist. Like, maybe 5 years from now!!
6-I am scared to death about aging. I have these crow's feet I can't seem to get rid of, and the other day, I pulled out a gray hair. I am all for help in that area, if we can afford it. There is one procedure I would especially like to have someday. Those close to me know exactly what I'm talking about. I dread the big 3-0!
7-I am not a good housekeeper, although I would really like to be. I just don't like doing it, and it's very hard for me sometimes. I love when Jake helps me with the house, but I end up re-doing almost everything he helps me with. Of course, this makes it harder on me, but I can't seem to help it.
8-My sister, Whit, informed me that I'm turning into a real city girl. But, her only reason, is because I watch Gossip Girl, Greek, and The Bachelor. I do love the country, and I had a wonderful childhood growing up in a small town. I would never move back there though. Maybe I am. . .
I, in turn, tag Candy, Alayna, Mo, Allison, Holly, Nat, and Mom. Just reminding my sisters, and my mother that I've tagged them multiple times, and they have never responded!

You are so funny. You look great, silly girl. I love you for all of your paranoia and all!!!! I am doing the tag right after I finish commenting on yours!
I like your random facts. Funny that you mention being a city girl. I think you told me one time (probably the last time I saw you) that I was turning 'Utah'. It made me laugh. I think being a city girl is fun.
I'm glad you did the favorite things swap. I think it will be fun. Now I just have to think of what I am going to send...
i love reading these... you learn so much. (& i LOVE gossip girl!)
WOW. That was so fun to read the crazy the make you you.
