101 quirks about me

1. I LOVE French Fried Onions straight from the bag (the big bags from Sams Club) I snack on them like potato chips. I also love deep fried mushrooms from Warrens, Awesome Blossoms at Chili's and Szechwan chicken.
2. Picky eaters bug me. I'll try anything and like most everything, except cantaloupe.
3. I have worked at 20 different jobs since I was 16. All were part-time or seasonal.
4. It's a pet peeve of mine when adults misspell words. Not by accident,when they just can't spell.
5. I have to read in bed before going to sleep, no matter how late it is.
6. I'm proud of being frugal.
7. We've gone without TV for 3yrs. out of the 8 we've been married. We just got Direct TV. I hate it. I feel TV is a huge waste of time.

9.
10. I've had Laser Razor done on my legs. It didn't work. They are still prickly.
11. It's my dream to work at the Polynesian Center in Hawaii.
12. I think I have the best sense of humor. If you don't, yours sucks. Lighten up!
13. People who get offended easily annoy me.
14. School lunch's suck! They were yummy when I went to school. Why can't we go back to making them from scratch?

19. I ran away from home with a boyfriend when I was 16. We got as far as St. George.
20. I regret inducing labor with Parks. I like surprises. I don't find out what I'm having and I don't get started. That's just my rules. But I didn't want to miss Easter with my kids and I was already 9 days overdue. Do over!
21. I've taken piano lessons and still can't play. I'd like to play the harp.

27. When I see a bad driver I push the button on my car's emergency brake that turns on my pretend siren (but I really make a siren sound) and I wish I were an undercover cop and could pull them over.
psycho I know.

30. I'm a complainer, but I hate when people think I'm a bad person for it.
Blogging this is very theraputic. aaahhhhh
31. Baking and I don't mix. I just waste my time and ingredients. I'm not a dessert lover anyway, so my poor kids go without. I do make sticky popcorn a lot. Yummy :)
32. I don't like when people count calories or talk about losing weight all the time. You can have just one cookie, it won't make you fat. It's usually the too skinny people who worry about it. Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow we die.
33. I'm scared to death of spiders and grasshoppers gross me out.

45. I'd rather hear a yelling parent once than a whining kid one hundred times.

48. Green eyes are the bomb.
49. I'm stubborn, hold grudges a long time, and have a hard time saying I'm sorry. I guess that's where Hudson gets it from.

52. My fondest childhood memories are staying with my grandma and cousins in West Jordan.

61. I miss my Grandma Leah. I want to be like her.
62. I've always wanted twins, when I played house their names were Sabrina and Katrina. Now they would be Brooklyn Leah and Oakleigh Skye. Or maybe Lexington and Remington (Lexi and Remi). Just as cheesy as when I was a kid huh?
63. I had radial-keratotomy 13 years ago. My eyesight is no longer 20/20.
64. I ponder a lot about what lesson Parks and I should be learning from his trial of having Cerebral Palsy. I don't think people understand how much it affects everything he does in his day to day life. But I am very thankful for what he can do because there are a lot of kids worse off than he is. I think God made him so cute to make up for his handicap.
65. I'm still mad we aren't living in Honolulu.
66. Summer is my favorite season, but its olverwhelming because there is so much I want to do with my kids and I can never fit it all in.
67. I'd rather be on vacation during South Weber's Country Fair Days. It stresses me out and costs too much.

74. My first semester at college I earned a 4.0 with 18 credit hours all while being a single mother and working full time. Wahooo
75. It really burns me how people (mostly celebrities) don't support our President on the war issue. Notice the service men and women aren't the ones complaining, they know what they are fighting for and that's what makes our country so great (and free remember). I'm behind Bush 100%. Have we forgotten 9/11?
76. While cleaning house I always daydream of the layout of my future home.
77. I don't like it when other people are overprotective of my own kids (and even my dog) and tell them "don't go in the street", "don't climb on that", "be careful", "come back", "stay here" while I'm standing right there! I know what my kids (and dog) will and won't do, can and can't do. Worry about yourself. Paranoid people bug me.
78. I'm usually late, get use to it.
79. Somedays I talk on the phone for hours with friends. I enjoy it but then I'm mad that I didn't get anything accomplished.
80. I don't like being at the mall, Lagoon, movies or anywhere that should be crowded when it's not. It feels eerie. I like lots of people and noise.

90. I believe in Big Foot. You don't?
91. Just because you're the mom, doesn't mean you know everything.
92. I feel sorry for babies who are not breastfed. If it weren't natural, we'd all have flat chests like men!
93. I've loved dogs my whole life but I'm starting to not. Poor Noel. I've never liked cats. I miss Tiki our pet Conure.
94. I can't wait to go on a mission with Larry. I hope to a remote island.
95. Homosexuality is a choice. You're not born that way.
96. I haven't taken a bath since I've moved out of my moms house. (We didn't have a shower.) Bath tubs gross me out no matter how clean they are.
97. Fake nails and being tan make me feel sexy.
98. I haven't shaved my armpits for 20yrs. I pluck them! There is hardly any hair left. :0
99. I don't believe dinosaurs lived on this earth. They aren't mentioned in the Bible. ha ha
