10 Things You Should Know

Mama’s Losin’ It

If you really know me, you should know:

  1. I love to buy shoes, but I don't like wearing them.
  2. I hate being the center of attention, but I hate feeling totally invisible. 
  3. If I consider you a friend, I'll do just about anything for you. 
  4. Taking care of people might be the one thing I do best.
  5. I am pretty particular about my personal rules...if I break one there is a good reason
  6. I usually only take a risk if the only person who will get hurt is me.
  7. I get bored easily.
  8. I hate feeling alone.
  9. The only thing I really want is  for people to actually get me.
  10. I love horror movies.
If you want to know anything else..ask.

Most of those (sans the horror movies) would fit me too...

The shoe thing annoys my poor husband. Thankfully I compensate with a lovely handbag addiction (not designer- or he'd kill me) and i do use those. :)

Your first on the list cracked me up--probably because I don't like shopping! I just wrote a post the other day about how horrible it is to shop for shoes with my daughter; I think I'd go crazy if she refused to wear her shoes, too! ;) Stopping by from Mama Kat's!

Best Laid Plans

I sat down and crafted a list of blog topics last night, and the plan was start working through that list tonight. It was going to be the start of a true reboot of this old thing. While I had planned on picking my stepdaughter up at the Boys and Girls Club after work I didn't plan on: 1) The amazon parrot needing me to make a food stop on the way home 2) My stepdaugher wanting me to watch her practice for color guard 3) That working on our budget would take nearly as long as it did. 4) Being this exhausted for no particular reason Now I sit here with a basset hound in my lap, and I am awkwardly trying to type on my laptop without disturbing him. This won't  be the blog I wanted to write tonight. It won't  be carefully crafted. That blog post will have to wait. Sometimes  you have to roll with the unexpected.
