11 Random Facts about Moi

1)      I usually only drink water. No one can believe it. I go visit someone and they think they aren’t being hospitable because all I want it water. I promise if I ask for water than that is all I need. :) I will drink Lemonade in the summer, hot apple cider and hot chocolate in the winter, but am satisfied with water.

2)      I have weird hitchhiker thumbs. They can touch my wrist on the inside of my arm and my fingers cannot go completely flat.

3)      I love being organized, but it takes me forever to figure out how. I have recently organized the medicine cabinet. There are now four little storage boxes with meds for sickness or allergies, pain meds, cat meds, and cat toys. I also reorganized my kitchen towels: rags, drying/hand towels for the kitchen, wash clothes, and table cloth/napkins/place mats. (My teacher side) :)

4)      I hate technology when it does not involve my classroom (although that can be a pain when it doesn’t work). I do not have a fancy phone and don’t have plans to get one.

5)      I am and always will be a UK Wildcat fan! I love me some college basketball. I love the tourney music they play on the TV, it brings back happy memories of family screaming at refs and cheering on the CATS.

6)      I love Grey’s Anatomy. It’s my only flaw in TV shows. Ha ha I guess you could say my guilty pleasure.

7)      I love to travel! I have been to 10 other countries. I am also partial to Central America. Love it there! Also, the husband and I are planning on visiting some friends this summer in Okinawa, Japan! Hope it works out.

8)      I love to read, but don’t have much time. When I do find a book I love I lose sleep, but not too much because I love to sleep.

9)      I am addicted to sugar. In particular, homemade cookies and store bought ice cream! Have to have my sugar fix every day.

10)  My favorite places in the world are my family cabin in Ansonia, PA and my parent’s backyard in KY. The smells, the sights, the calm all make me feel like I have a piece of Heaven on Earth.

11) I love Jesus and am so thankful for my wonderful husband Steve. We could not be more perfect for each other.

11 Questions from Hannah:

1)      What is your "must have" beauty product?
Lotion/moisturizer. Without it my skin would be drier than dried fruit. I prefer for my hands Aquaphor at night and Beauti Control’s hand cream during the day. I love Curel that is fragrant free for the rest of my body or Aquaphor at night.. I used to be allergic to fragrances and now don’t like them much.

2)      Who do you most admire and why?
This is such a tough question. I think it would be my parents right now. They have been through so much and still love Jesus and showed me to turn to Jesus when things get tough and when things are great. 

3)      What is your favorite thing to do on the weekend?
In the spring and summer I love being outside running around or at the pool. In the winter, without snow, inside covered in blankets, by the fire, with hot chocolate, watching a movie with the husband or playing board games. In the winter with snow, playing in the snow, coming in to a warm fire and hot chocolate, blankets and a movie.

4)      What is your favorite childhood memory?
SEC and NCAA time. See number 5 in my random facts. My whole family would be together.

5)      Are you a winter or summer kind of gal?
Summer for sure. I love both, but I honestly love being outside in the warm sun.

6)      What is your favorite movie?
The Little Mermaid for animated, and unanimated changes often, but I always love Knotting Hill and How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days.

7)      What is your favorite item in your closet?
Tough question…I’m thinking my dance pants. They are the ultimate comfort and can pass as leggings under a dress and boots. :)

8)      What is the best vacation that you've been on?
I am well-travelled for my age and have been to many countries. I have been so blessed with travel that I can’t decide which was the best. Any trip with my family and husband is awesome! I also loved going to Cocoa Beach with some girlfriends though.

9)      Favorite band/musician?
Um wow, too many to choose from: Michael Buble, Norah Jones, Joshua Radin, Ingrid Michaelson, All the old guys Frank, Tony, Nat, etc., Nickel Creek. Seriously, I don’t have a favorite, but I do always enjoy Michael and Joshua. 

10)  What's your favorite cocktail or mocktail
Whiskey sour with more sour than whiskey :)

11) Best gift you've ever received?
My husband coming home from deployment, anytime he went out to sea and came back was the best thing in the world to me. He is my best friend and I cannot imagine life without him nor do I want to. I am so thankful to be done with sea duty!
