Jenna tagged me because she thinks I have too much spare time on my hands. Since I'm avoiding Saturday housework, homework, and my grumpy fighting kids, I would love to sit at my computer and talk all about myself.
1. I don't get sore throats. I just loose my voice. (Why is this on my mind? Because I lost my voice for all of last week.) I used to get sick all the time so my mom had the doctor take my tonsils out when I was in 8th grade. Now I never get sick.
2. I always know when my body is really stressed because I get a cold sore. The first one I got was after I delivered Zach. The last one I had was last week while I was unable to talk. That's the other way that I know I'm sick.
No voice + Cold Sore = SICK!
3. I bite my fingernails. Okay, I used to bite my fingernails, and I hated it. I couldn't stop though so when I got my tonsils out I was excited because it hurt too much to bite. Then my fingernails grew a little bit, I painted them and that sort of helped. I'm like a recovering nail biter. I have to consciously make the decision to not bite my nails everyday. If the nail is snagged or uneven, I have to be really careful because I bite to fix it and before I know what happened, there's nothing left.
Warning:Next one is personal and possibly uncomfortable for some. Feel free to skip.
4. I hate my periods! I used to be totally regular. Then I spent 13 years having babies, nursing, birth control, and whatever else. 18 months ago I had my tubes tied after Henry was born and now my body is out of control. I cramp hard and have a constant migraine for a week before, then gush massive amounts of blood for a week, sweat like crazy in my sleep, loose 2-3 pounds, sleep alot, completely stop bleeding for a couple days, think I'm done, get a really bad migraine, finish bleeding over the next few days, have one week where I feel normal and then it's time to start the process all over again. I guess I'm still regular, just in an irregular way.
5. I struggle with spending my money on food. While I'm grocery shopping or cooking, I always think of all the money that will just be "flushed down the drain." :)
6. I am not a huge fan of going to the medical doctor. I feel like I pay too much money just to waste my time sitting in a germ filled office, listen to him to tell me what I already knew and give me a prescription which he knows I won't fill anyways. Basically I feel like it's a waste of both of our time and he wins and I loose because I give him my money and he builds a really nice house on the canyon with it.
7. Someday I will learn to Swim! Dance! Play a stringed instrument, and travel farther than Idaho, Utah, and Oregon! I will also get my college degree and learn to run. One step at a time!
I don't know who to tag so I'm tagging everyone related to me!
P.S. I just reread this post and it seemed a little negative. In my defense, Ken has been gone all week, came home last night and went hunting all day to day, it snowed last night so my kids are stuck in the house, I'm having my psycho period right now, I woke up with a headache, a stuffy nose, and a scratchy voice (I just got over this last week) and I'm FREEZING! After I clean my house, do my homework, and spend some "happy time" with my kids, I'm planning to hybernate away what's left of the day !
P.S.S. That last entry wasn't any happier so I'm going to quit now but here's a cute picture that should have been my Wordless Wednesday post this last week.
My life is really, really good! And I have great kids!
I am blessed!

Cute picture!! About the periods, have you spoken to your doctor about those? It's sound like you need some hormone therapy!
Ok, I just cannot believe that is has snowed already in Idaho!! Crazy. We are still using our air conditioner during the afternoons here in Texas! My kids sure miss the snow though.
Hey, I cannot link to your blog from mine. Maybe you could try adding me again.
I'm totally laughing! I didn't really think it was negative. I started laughing at the end when you tried to explain why you were negative! You are so cute! Having crazy periods are the worst! I'm so sorry. It totally wipes you out! I was crazy for a while after my surgery and it was no fun! Hope you have a better next week!
Put fingernail clippers in your purse or even pocket. I have the exact same problem. One day I discovered I don't actually like to bite my nails I like having them smooth and straight. Now I carry fingernail clippers so that I am not tempted to bite, I just clip it, file it, and I feel better.
P.S If you are having that heavy (and hard) of periods you might want to see a doctor, but I guess that fall under the doctor one. Well, just a thought.
I still think you are great!!! Love ya
that sucks abt your period! ugh!
The picture is very sweet!
Hey, it's honest! Cute picture too.
