The New 25 Random Things list.
#1. Being active has always been apart of my life, but now it is one of the most important things in my life, as I have lost so much weight this year, and have learned to eat healthier I can not believe the difference it makes in a person's life. I have to say that running is still my favorite activity, followed closely by tandem bike rides with my husband.
#2. Mark and I have now been married for 6 1/2 years, and he is still goofy, crazy, funny, hard working, loving, kind hearted, and without a doubt my soul mate. I love him more then anything, or anyone and want to spend the rest of my earthly life and celestial life loving him and being with him.
#3. I am a crazy picky eater, but it is in a different way then most people. I am picky in the sense that I like lots of different food, however it has to be made the way I like it made. I can literally get sick and gag if I try to eat something that is not made the way I like it.
#4. 2 years ago I loved facebook and everything about it, I was on it everyday, sometimes for hours, looking at people's pictures and lives. Then about a year ago I decided to get my own life, and to stop wishing I had other people's lives. Not to mention I hate how people use it as there only form of communication. I understand that it is convenient for having to mass e-mail family our friends about events, but I hate that if you are not on facebook you have no idea what is going on, that people's lives are to busy to give you a call, yet they can still find time to watch 2 hours of t.v. and go on facebook for 30 minutes every night. I could go on for pages and pages as to why I hate facebook, but this isn't a post about facebook so I will stop.
#5. I still believe I was suppose to be a boy, however these past couple of years, especially this last year, I have definitely improved on the whole, hair, make up, and dressing cute. I have decided that looking nice is important to me, and even though I don't have a natural talent at getting myself looking nice, like so many girls. I want to learn and to make it important, as it builds confidence, and I am sure my husband appreciates it a lot more.
#6. I am still totally and completely obsessed about my puppies, they are the most adorable dogs in the world, I almost can't believe sometimes that I can love something so much that is not human, but I do.
#7. My favorite animal has always been an Orca "Killer Whale", however I have an intense love for all animals. Dogs, Lions, Bears, Wolves, Tigers, Horses, all animals in baby form. The only animals that make my skin crawl are, insects, rodents, snakes, lizards, anything that is creepy, crawly. ahh I can't stand them.
#8. Ice cream is the greatest food ever invented, I could eat it everyday, if it did not make me fat.
#9. I no longer love having baths, I now love going in the hot tub, well I still like baths, but who would have a bath when there is a hot tub to go in.
#10. I love spending time alone, when Mark has to go away for a young mens event, I love that I get 2 to 3 days all to myself, to do whatever I want.
#11. I never thought I would have post secondary education, but am so proud of myself, and so grateful that I do. It feels good to know that I can take care of myself financially if I needed to.
#12. I am starting to love living in Lloydminster (Kitscoty) I don't know if we will be here forever, but I think if we had to, we could and we would be okay with that. As long as you are happy, you can live anywhere.
#13. I still love reading books, only know I actually read them. I am hoping to read 24 this year, two a month, it is a big goal, but I think it would be awesome.
#14. I am still crazy competitive, only not as much with games as I use to, oh I still want to win, but if I am not it does not bug me as much as it use to, once I know I am going to lose I just start having fun, and act like a goof, and you know what I think I like that better. Everything else in life, still brings out my competitive streak. Which I sometimes don't think is a bad thing, I think it is good to want to succeed and be good at what you do, as long as you can keep it in perspective.
#15. I love blogging, I love writing on my blog, I love reading other peoples blogs, and I love that since I have had time off work I have been able to blog like crazy. I have got rid of that blogging for others, and truly blog for myself now, if others read it great, if not whatever. I find it is just a nice way to write down my thoughts and feelings, almost theraputic. I can't wait to make my blog into a book this year.
#16. The church is still the most important focus in my life, and every year I learn more about, my savior, my self and the gospel. I so badly want to be a perfect "molly mormon" and dream about being a general young women, relief society, or primary president one day. Not that I really want to, but that I am that in tune with my savior that I could be.
#17. I also dream about being one of those people, like my Aunt Shirley that understand the scriptures so well, they can read any verse and understand exactly what it means. A scholar I guess is the term we use.
#18. I like most women, constantly worry about things, my weight, my looks, finances, my house being clean, if someone likes me or not, if my husband loves me, if my family loves me, if my dogs love me, making sure my relief society lesson is perfect and everybody else thought it was perfect, and on and on and on. I would like to say that someday I will stop worrying, but I doubt it.
#19. I am endlessly dreaming of a perfect life, perfect kids, perfect home, being insanely wealthy, being the perfect wife, traveling all over the world, being in the Olympics and winning a gold medal, living in the most perfect place, I actually have a hard time falling asleep at night because I am sitting there thinking about all of those things.
#20. I am starting to love talking on the phone, especially with family and friends, however I still don't answer the phone when I see a number I don't recognize, or somebody I fell uncomfortable talking to, I just let the machine pick it up and if it is important they can leave a message, and I have Mark call them back.
#21. I still love dancing, and I bet if you randomly drove by my house, there would be times, when you could still see me dancing around the house, by myself, like a maniac, singing at the top of my lungs.
#22. sometimes I wish I could go back and do it all over again, knowing what I know now, then other times I say what is the fun in that.
#23. I of course am still dreaming everyday of having children, only the number of children has gone from 4 or 5 to 1 or 2. Not only because we are having problems, but I dream of having one sweet little boy or girl and doughting on them everyday and loving them and only them unconditionally. I dream of going on bike trips across canada, Mark and I on our tandem and Kyle or Maci right there behind us, of traveling the world for a year as a small family of three with no cares or worries, and going to a soup kitchen on Christmas day, then coming home and reading charles dickens "A Christmas Carol", while opening the one gift we each got for one another.
#24. I am grateful for my education and my job, however I have learned that I am not a career oriented women, since my miscarriage I am taking a couple months of work, and then going back only 3 days a week, and no longer managing. I have loved having this time to work on crafts, do some baking, keep my house clean, visit with friends, and spend time with family. I am grateful that my husband has a good job that I can do this and that he supports me and understands why I want to do this. If I had to go back full time I know I can, but I am looking forward to this year, and having more time for my self.
#25. I have horrible grammar, spelling, sentence structure as anyone who reads my blog probably already knows that. My worst however is the use of "know" and "now". I always get them wrong. The funny thing though, was of all the main courses, I got my highest mark in English, agh, scary to think what my marks were in Math, Science and Social.
