Friday's Factual Randomosity

1. I love children. I can't wait to have a family of my own.

2. I have a super cute nephew...well, it's true! And he has the most contagious grin...AH! Sorry. :) ...AND they are coming down to see us in June the 5th. :D I am one excited Aunty! 

3. I am left eye dominant, so I shoot left handed. 

4. I walk in time to music. So if I am ever blessed to be married, I will probably walk in beat. Even if it is halftime! And if Maria (Julie Andrews) in Sound of Music did it, then I can too! Ha!

5. In the song "Soul and Inspiration" by the Righteous Brothers, when they say,  "Baby, I can't make it withoutcha. And I'm, I'm tellin' ya, honey, you're my reason for laughin', for cryin', for livin', and for dyin'." I like to add "And for freezin' and for fryin'!" :D

6. It's so frustrating when you are sewing and the head of your pin comes off while you're trying to take it out.

7. I did it. I got some fabric, and went out on a limb and just DID it! ... I made an orange, with white polkadots, skirt! :) I'm in love! 

8. I wonder if the guys in "Man from Snowy River" got wind burn from filming the riding? lol

9. My joints crack a lot. Like a lot. 

10. I can't wait to be done with school. Then I can just be a stay-at-home daughter. :) 

11. We sleep under mosquito nets. What a lifesaver! (But I like Jolly Ranchers better, so "What a Jolly Rancher!")

12. I can't go to sleep without chap stick on.

13. I always check behind all shower curtains. Everywhere, anytime- I've been jumped out at and scared way too many times!! 

Have a great weekend! :)

Questions for me:

1) How many siblings do you have and how did/do they effect your life?

-I have 7 siblings. They are an incredible blessing to me. They have also made me learn important things: patience, flexibility, have a good time. :)

2) Write a list or remember it in your head?

-Depends on if I REALLY want to remember it. I usually do it in my head, but I usually work better if it's written. lol!

3) If you could spend an afternoon alone, anywhere, where would it be, and what would you do?

-Spend it in a field or meadow, lying on a blanket with a good book (probably a Jane Austen) reading, or just basking in the (I really like autumn) sun. :)

4) What is a favorite colour?

-Black n white, brown, and lots of bright colours! Especially blue... :)

5) What passage in the Bible do you find yourself going back to?

-Philippians 4:8-9

6) Email or handwritten letters?

-Handwritten. :) They are so much more personal.

7) Warm weather or cold?

-Cold IF I have a really cozy blanket in front of a fireplace. If not...bring on the sun babeh! :)

8) What is something funny or crazy you do?

-I like to add "a-doo-dah" to words...like "yep-a-doo-dah!"
-I am very clumsy. I randomly fall off of things, over things, and even over nothing!

9) Do you keep a journal?

-Yes. :)

10) How do you celebrate your birthday?

-Normally by eating Reuben Sandwiches or Mexican Stack-up, having homemade ice-cream, (since it's hot in August) and reading a book all day, then watching a movie. Although the last one we went on a picnic- that was nice too! :)

11) What are three blessings off the top of your head?

-Boxes from friends in America
-Friendships all around the world
-Life, health, and strength!
