Celebrity Look-a-like

Thanks Amy for sharing! I had to try it myself. I get told I look like Kelly Mcgillis but she did not make the list, so they must have been full of it!

Yes ladies and gentleman it finally happened. I can relate this feeling back to those days in elementary school when you anticipated your name being called out by the the team captain but it seemed to take forever! So long in fact there were only three people standing by the time it finally happened. I showed them however when I made the winning run in softball! After that moment I wasn't picked by the best looking boy in school, but I sure wasn't last man standing either!
So the day has finally come where someone has finally wanted to "tag" me! Maybe mine will be so full of juicy information everyone will want to tag me. Even the cutest boy in school.

So seven random, exciting, crazy, weird strange details about me. Too bad I only have 5 brothers and sisters. My list would be easy! JUST KIDDING!

1. It was pointed out to me a few days ago on a road trip that I like older men. I did not realize this until I started listing off some of my favorite people. John Wayne being at the top of the list. Anyone who knows me, knows that I love this man! I also have an obsession with Neil Diamond I should start a web page called "Neil Diamond will always be sexy." I also love Shaun Connery!

2. I have never once broken a bone, but I have been able to hurt myself in ways I never thought possible. Stiches in the tongue, stepped on a needle and it went all the way through my foot, and well, the small cut on my head that required 17 staples.

3. I love PB & honey sandwiches. I could live off of them.

4. I love to read, but I don't do it too often because when I do read it is when I have 3 days of doing nothing. Like Christmas vacation, or a long weekend. I can't put the book down. I have to finish it. It is like when I start anything, I have to finish it as quickly and as fast as possible.

5. My favorite thing to do to relax is go to the movies alone. Everyone thinks I am weird until they try it for themselves! There is nothing better than heading to the movies with movie cup in hand. You get to sit where you want, you don't have to share your popcorn, and no one to make fun of you when you are crying. Seriously....try it sometime.... You will be amazed how enjoyable it is.

6. I get terribly homesick for my surroundings when I am on vacation. I can't go on vacation for too long. After a few days of being gone from wherever I live, I just want to be home. Once I am home though, I can't wait for my next adventure.

7. I am allergic to almost all fresh fruits. Everyone thinks it is in my head, but I have met plenty of people that have the same symptoms! They all can only eat apples and green grapes just like me. My throat starts to swell and it feels like the outside of a kiwi. My ears start to itch and it feels like someone is stabbing my chest. I was offered freshly squeezed OJ on my mission all the time and I had to politely decline. Drinking a yummy glass of milk is the cure for the symptoms. One day I will take my allergy medicine before I am offered a big slice of watermelon or honeydew. Until then, go ahead and keep your cantelopes to yourself!

Stink, now is the part where I have to pick my team. Here goes.... sorry friends...those listed, you have to to gossip about yourself.
Oh...should number 8 be I can't make decisions? I can't ever be the one to decide where to eat in fear that the other person secretly does not want to go there and only agrees to it to be nice? I get anxiety really bad and would never be able to enjoy my food. So.... I can't pick seven. If you are on my list and you are reading this, go ahead..start making your list of how crazy you might be!

Happy Birthday Abbey D!!!





So Abbey turned 9 yesterday! I can't believe my sweet little neice is getting so old! She sure is a wonderful girl and I love and miss her to death! I talked to her on a the phone a couple of weeks ago and asked her what she wanted for her birthday. Her new hobbies are cooking and taking pictures! And boy does she take some good pictures!

One memory I have of Abbey was when I came to visit quite a few years ago when Abbey was only about two. I remember she climbed up on the bathroom counter as I was doing my makeup and hair and wanted to join me. She grabbed my makeup and hair brush and staired in the mirror. I think everyone knew early on she was going to be "Diva D" and "Cute D" Oh she is all girl! However, don't mess with her on the field or when she is beating the boys in a race!
I love Abbey because:
1. She is so kind
2. She is a great big sister to her lil sis Amelia
3. She makes me feel loved when I come and visit!
4. Her laugh! If any of you have heard her laugh, you know what I mean! It is a crack up!
5. She is sooo talented! She is a girl after my own heart because she loves to dance
6. The most determined little soul I have ever met!
7. She is a good example
8. She is very sensitive towards others
9. She loves me back!

Happy Birthday Abbey!!!!

What Year Do I belong in?




You Belong in 1984



Wild, over the top, and just a little bit cheesy. You're colorful at night - and successful during the day.
