If you really knew me

This delightful little post has been floating around my favorite blogs and since I'm falling asleep at my desk I needed to do something to wake me up.

You would know that when I listen to music I pay attention to the words, and there are songs I change because I don't like the lyrics. I don't ever just hear a tune and it's why country music has always been a favorite of mine.

You would know that when I'm at home I like to play Pandora on the TV. We have a google TV and it's amazing. It was Mr. Clean's birthday present to himself. I have 5 stations to Mr. Clean's 1.

You would know I'm not afraid to speak up in front of a group of people.

You would know that it's only been in the past 3 years that I've been running. I was always a walker, and I would go to the gym but 3 years ago I started running.

You would know that even though I do go to the gym and run I still have to force myself to get started.

You would know that I can lose myself in a book and transport myself into that world. Karen Kingsbury, Susan Elizabeth Phillips and Norah Roberts both have the writing ability that allows me to do this.

You would know that last summer was the first time I forced myself to read books that were not light easy romance reads. I'm glad I branched out I've really enjoyed the books by Beth Moore, Francis Chan and Jim Cymbala.

You would know that I've been known to pass up food calories for beverage calories or candy, but not both it's one or the other.

You would know that I can cook and I can bake but I don't do complicated. I look at a recipe and if it has too many steps I move on.

You would know that I love to shop. I love clothes and shoes and jewelry and putting things together. I have no singing ability, I can not play a musical instrument, I can't dance (very well) and I am terrible at painting and drawing but I do have an eye for putting an outfit together.

You would know that I love to create outfits for my 3 1/2 year old because she still lets me. She is my little fashion doll and I adore dressing her up.

You would know that I know I need to not give Girl Clean all her new shoes at once because I'm spoiling her but it was too much fun to pass up seeing her reaction to the shoes I purchased for her.

You would know that I tell people getting married as quickly as I did is a very (x 1000) bad idea if the person has never been in your life and you don't really know each other.

You would know that I have learned how to stand up for myself, fight for what I believe in and be thankful in all circumstances!

You would know that I religiously read blogs but I can't comment from work if it's a blogspot blog without it's own domain so if I have your email I email you comments instead.

You would know that purple is my favorite color, Jack Banner is my favorite animal and I have a ridiculous sugar addiction.

You would know that I can't wait to read more of these because I love them!!!
