25 Random things about me

Wednesday, January 28, 2009
I did this on Facebook so I thought I might add it here too...


1. I love Jesus with all my heart, I try to live like it every day, but I'm afraid I don't come close.
2. I am 25 and have been married to my wonderful husband for 5 years! (Yes I can do math and I know I was a baby!)
3. I have the sweetest puppy (ok he's 2 1/2), Bama, who makes me smile every day.
4. I am almost finished with anesthesia school (8 months!!!)
5. I am going to Belize in less than 2 months to give anesthesia as part of a surgical mission team.
6. I am the most organized messy person you will ever meet. I have neat and organized traits, but they seem to be left at work.
7. I threw discus and javelin in college and placed in the Gulf South Conference Meet.
8. I won the 1A-3A Heptathalon my senior year, I was one of 2 so they grouped us in with the big schools. :)
9. One of my favorite things at Harding was curfew... then all your friends came home and the fun started!
10. I voted for Hillary Clinton in the Alabama Primary, I thought she'd be easier to beat, but I hated that I voted for her.
11. I love going on vacations, especially with my husband.
12. I claim I can't think in pencil. I haven't used one since high school, except to fill in scantrons (I would take the test in pen).
13. I love shoes! But usually end up going with my Merrells, which I love but are as ugly as sin.
14. I am obsessed with watchin the Bachelor and Grey's Anatomy. I stay up to watch them live, even though I have to go to clinical EARLY the next morning.
15. I loved that my mom worked at my school. She was always there if I needed anything.
16. I have the best friends and family ever.
17. My elbows bend slightly backwards, but I don't believe in people being "double jointed."
18. I can't stand for water (or anything) to be on my face. I have a towel hanging over the side of the shower so I can dry my face off.
19. I chopped most of my hair off before I wnet to college and didn't tell anyone I was going to do it.
20. I am finally getting a sister this summer! My brother Luke and Morgan are getting married!!!!
21. I love sewing, especially making scrub hats for myself and dresses for my faux-niece Savannah.
22. I am totally in a cooking slump. I used to love it, but just don't feel like it anymore and can't figure out how to get out of this slump.
23. I think I am the last person on the planet to read the Harry Potter books, I just finished book 3!
24. I have to have a blanket over me when I sit on the couch, at least my shoulders and feet (the rest can be draped off of me), even in the dead of winter.
25. The last seven months have been the hardest of my life, but I have learned and grown so much! I am thankful for all the lessons I have learned and the time I have been able to spend with Tom, helping him through his tough times and celebrating his victories (from getting the pathology report of clear lymph nodes/ no more chemo to being able to take Bama for a walk to being able to button his jeans after abdominal surgery).

I am so proud of you for all you have been through over the last year, with school, a sick husband, and everything else... I don't know how you did it!

By the way, get out of the cooking slump! Please! For the sake of your girlfriends. We need another Bachelor night at your house with those cheesy apples... yum... and I promise not to show up with a positive urine stick this time :)

Agree--both with breaking the slump and Haley not showing up waving a pregnancy test out the window, though that did add some fun color to the evening! I miss your cheesy apples, banana pudding, chicken salad, and general Paula-inspired goodness. And you, too!
