25 things about me

1. I like going to the dentist. I haven't had any cavities in my adult teeth. I also like going to the eye doctor. Both are strangely exciting for me.
2. I hate carrots. I want to like them - I think they look good and I like that they are crunchy. I hate the taste. I spit them out as a baby in baby food form and have never liked them. Every year or two I get curious and try them again - still don't like them. I can tolerate them when they are in soup, but don't like them any other way.
3. I like to play with hair. Good thing I had two girls and three sisters...
4. I almost never have scary dreams. They're usually boring or just bizarre (if I can remember them at all).
5. I like to type and have loved the jobs I've had where all I do is transcription.
6. I cannot stand it when people ask the same question more than once. If you asked and I already answered, please do not call me back two minutes later and ask the same thing. Also, if I gave you an answer, don't ask someone else the same question within earshot of me.
7. I would rather spend time with family than do anything else.
8. I love to do crafts, but I don't feel like I'm very creative. I'm just good at copying other peoples' ideas.
9. I enjoy math. I like to work out long algebraic equations.
10. I actually like doing our taxes also (the process of it, not necessarily the outcome).
11. I have feigned ignorance on certain topics because it's easier than admitting I know what I'm talking about when dealing with some people.
12. There are a lot of things I don't mind doing, but if I'm told that I have to do that same task I automatically feel trapped and hate doing it.
13. If I'm cranky, please don't tell me that I'm cranky. Nothing angers me worse than telling me that I'm in a bad mood.
14. My favorite fruits are strawberries and tomatoes (not necessarily together).
15. I lived in Utah for over 6 years and did not go skiing or snowboarding once while there. I have never been skiing anywhere. I have only been snowboarding once and hurt myself so badly that I never wanted to do it again.
16. I like washing laundry but hate folding it and putting it away.
17. I am a packrat. I hate to throw anything away for fear I might need to use it again and don't want to buy it or replace it in the future. I also keep things that I probably don't need because I'll think of a way I might be able to re-purpose those things.
18. I hate to clean in general, but like washing windows and don't mind scrubbing the bathroom.
19. At work I am very meticulous about organizing and keeping away clutter. At home I am the complete opposite.
20. I like to watch football and basketball games in person. I'm happy when they're on at home because I can get a lot done while knowing Jeff is entertained. I don't mind watching them at home, but my mind wanders towards crafts and reading.
21. I love to read. I estimate that I read close to 100 books last year.
22. When I was in high school I thought I might never want to get married or have kids. I was married 14 months after graduation and had a baby a year later. I wouldn't trade my family for anything (not even for a degree or money).
23. I'm proud of my daughters and the things they teach me. I am fascinated daily by the insight they already have at their young ages. I love how different they are from each other and how their personalities are so different from mine. I love my little comedian and my fashion diva.
24. Jeff is at least 6 inches shorter than the guys I ever "went out with" in high school. Being close to the same height is nice - we don't have to move the driver's seat when we switch cars.
25. I love rollercoasters, but don't like heights (and hate climbing up high on ladders).
