Mini me

I'm sitting here, pondering the silence.

Of course everyone is sleeping nicely in their beds, not a peep out of any of them.  I'm home alone.

If my husband was home, however, about to make his move, then of course, everyone would suddenly be wide awake, needing a drink or getting up to use the bathroom. 

Forget birth control.  Just have a couple of kids, and you'll be lucky to see each other naked ever again for longer than it takes to get reacquainted.  Lol, trying is half the fun.  Or half the battle?   

Where was I?

Oh, I was about to attempt the list.  The about me list making the rounds a couple of weeks ago. (again)

Here goes:

1.  I'm a small town girl. 

2.  It's a part of me, even though I don't live there now.

3.  I'm a decent cook.  (No, I'm a good cook.)

4.  If you come over to my house, I'm gonna feed you.

5.  I have one brother who is 2 yrs younger than I am.

6.  No one can aggravate me or make me laugh faster than he can.  Not even Mr W.

7.  Cake.  Not pie.

8.  Ice cream, always.

9.  Learned to twirl a baton when I was three.

13.  One of my first memories is in Spanish.

14.  I'm fluent. 

15.  But I wish I could read/write it better.

16.  I always wanted four kids. 

17.  Surprised that I actually had four once I realized how much work one can be.

18.  My best friend is someone I've known, officially, since I was 8.  (Hi Jenny)

23.  I like to run. 

24.  Fireworks fascinate me. 

25.  I like to read.

26.  I did pretty well in high school.

47.  And most of the time, I laugh too loud. 

48.  I'm very loyal.

49.  Overprotective.

50.  If you are my friend, you know it. 

51.  I wear my heart on my sleeve.
