20 Things....Still Going....


12. I LOVE music and I love singing in the car! I enjoy all types of music with the exception of hard rock and rap! My favorite artists are Jeremy Camp, Casting Crowns, MercyMe, and Nicole Nordeman.


13. I enjoy SOFT things...my bed is covered with pillows (10 to be exact!!); 2 down comforters and a extra loft pillow top mattress. I like to think I am sleeping on Cloud 9! :) When I curl up on the couch, I have the softest "sweatshirt" throw.


14. My favorite movies are: Steel Magnolias, The Pursuit of Happyness, The Notebook, Pride and Prejudice, Father of the Bride I and II, and Tommy Boy!!
15. I have been in 11 weddings as a Bridesmaid and/or Maid-of-Honor! I have a LARGE collection of dresses in case you are interested!! ;) I will ship them with shoes and purses!!! LOL


16. I once had a summer job as a "Septic Tank Inspector" for the County's Health Department. Long story short: my friend's mother told me there was an internship open with the Health Dept. Assuming that it was in the Health Clinic, I told her to send an application (she was an HR specialist). It was a "GENERAL" application!! I found out only after my boss called me for an interview in the "ENVIRONMENTAL" Health Division. We were responsible for visualizing that everyone in the county had operable septic tanks! All summer I went from house to house, backyard to backyard looking for these things!!! And you know what?! I loved it....MINUS the smell at times!! LOL
More to come....please if you drop by...leave a comment....I would love to hear from you!! :)

20 Things...continued....



8. My favorite colors are black and white (link to one of my FAV stores)....this is not representative of my "thinking" though....I am all about evaluating the "gray areas" of life!



9. I w0rked as a nanny through college for a family with 2 great children. Julianne was only 1 yr. when I started and her brother, Neal, joined the family 1 yr before I left. I love their family and still do!!
(This book is HYSTERICAL; however, definitely different from my good experience as a nanny!)
10. I am a WILDCAT at heart,
though I live in BUCKEYE country. Don't get me wrong, I like the Buckeyes, just have to support my alma mater. Thank goodness they are in different divisions!!




11. I have my BSN from UK and I have another BS in Biology from Asbury College, as well. Asbury is a small private college in Wilmore, Kentucky.
Here you have a few more.....keep reading...more to come!!
