Random things about ME!

I feel bad that I've fallen off the face of the blogosphere.  Shiz has been uber hectic around here and with the holidays coming (and then a Disney cruise with my daughter in January) and it's only going to get worse. 

I feel like I know so many of you from your blogs and since I'm new at this, thought I would share a few random things to help you know ME better! 

  1.  love peanut butter and I eat it at least once a day on something.  Sandwich, apple, banana… whatever. 
  2. My sister and I are both adopted (different birthparents) and so is my daughter. 
  3. I was attacked by a Rottweiler about 15 years ago.  He attacked my face, but luckily my scar isn’t visible.  It’s under my chin and hidden.  I still have regular nightmares about that day and I’ll have an anxiety attack if a dog gets too close to my face. 
  4. I’ve lived in NJ, NE, IA, GA and TN.  I’d move back to Savannah, GA in a heartbeat.  When I got divorced, if my daughter wasn’t in my life I would have picked up and moved there immediately.     
  5. I’m obsessed when it comes to reading.  Can’t ever get enough.  I sometimes have 3 books going at once. 
  6. I’m a Disney nut.  I don’t wear Mickey clothes or decorate my house Disney, but I love all things Mickey.  It’s the vacations and the feeling you get in those destinations that I love so so much. 
  7. My parents have both passed away.  It’s a terribly lonely feeling.  This time of the year really sucks. 
  8. I hate crunchy vegetables like onions, cucumbers, peppers… *shudder*
  9. I hate teeth.  And feet.  Blech.  I don’t want to ever touch either. 
  10. I love to sing.  Always have.      
  11. I loved High School.  I’m not one of those people that hated it and try to forget it ever happened.  I loved every second. 
  12. My best friend is my rock.  I’ve known her since we were 10 years old.  We both ended up in Omaha about 3 miles away from each other.  I can’t go a day without talking to her. 
  13. I just got a huge promotion at work and while the money is going to be a treat, I’m not sure what I’ve gotten myself into. 
  14. I love Glee.  Love love love
  15. I hate that I have no motivation to work out as much as I used to.  Must find that groove again.  Being a single mom and working full time pretty much zaps everything out of me.  I have to change that. 
  16. A man with a quick wit is my kryptonite.     
  17. I love to watch football.  Nothing makes me think of my dad more than a lazy Saturday afternoon with the sound of college ball on TV. 
  18. I’d love to be on Amazing Race – anyone want to apply with me?   
  19. Jersey Boys is my new very favorite musical – love it and wish I could see it again.
  20. I feel bad I’ve been neglecting my blog.  This time of year life really seems to get in the way.  Miss you all!
