11 Things

I do enjoy it when I'm challenged to think outside of my normal train of thought, so thank you Shannon for tagging me!

11 Random Things About Me:

1. I am still not convinced that canning, other than homemade jam, is worth my time or effort.
2. I don't have a very strong relationship with my Mom.  Sometimes we go months without calling each other. 
3. I love the Dark Knight Batman movies.
4. Iron Man is my favorite Marvel character. 
5. I suffer from Anxiety every now and then.  I get the full fledged symptoms and everything.  Not sure what triggers it, but it is no fun!
6. I love to make cinnamon rolls.  I used to be too intimidated to make them, but not anymore and they are delicious!
7. I feel that I have the best friends ever!
8. I love working 1 day a week.     
9. I wish I was more spiritually minded.
10. Part of me has a secret wish to move to Utah, but that idea would never fly with my husband.
11. I am a huge fan of Classic Rock music.      

Questions I was asked to answer:

1.  Do you plan, or are you flying by the seat of your pants?

Both.  Somethings I like to plan, while other things I prefer to wing.  I think there is more excitement in flying by the seat of your pants, but it's hard to do that with kids.

2.  Today was amusing because __________?

Today was amusing because I had lunch at McDonald's and while others were chatting and eating their food, I sat there with my ballot and studied my voters pamphlet book.  I might of been a little out of place.

3.  How hungry are you right now?

I shouldn't be hungry, but I can hear my kids' Halloween candy bags calling my name.  On top of that, I am dehydrating apples right now and it smells heavenly!  Those two things make me want to eat.

4.  Bad news: sugarcoated or straight-up?

Sugarcoated.  I'd rather get accustomed to the idea of bad news before I truly hear how bad it is.

5.  How do you get out of a rut?

I'm trying to figure that out!?   I find it helpful to list my priorities and focus on the things that are important to me at the time.

6.  What are you a geek about?

I guess to some people I can be classified a geek for my love of British TV and books. 

7.  What do you crave?

A vacation!  Spencer and I did not get away this year and it's killing me.  I want a week of no responsibilities, no housework and a tan!

8.  What was the last bad movie you watched?

Not Since You - on Netflix.  Dumb storyline and bad acting.  Not recommended.

9.  Do you have any new friends?

Absolutely!  I'd like to think I make new friends all the time, whether I meet them at the gym, at work or at church.

10.  You want a new _________?

Wardrobe.  I would love to spend $500 on clothes, it'd be like a dream come true!    

11.  What makes you feel wonderful?

Reading uplifting books and watching uplifting movies.  Last night for family night we watched, Legacy.  I always feel wonderful after those things.
