I have never actually been tagged so I hope I do this right.

It is suppose to be 7 things people may or may not know about me.

1. I love the beach. I think this is really where my heart would call home but who can afford it. I can sit on the beach for hours and be perfectly content. It doesn't have to be a specific beach, just clean and pretty. When I need to find a "happy place" that is where I go. You would think we'd get there more often for how much I love it but we don't. Still my favorite place.

2. I want to learn how to rock climb. Something about this just looks so fun. I keep telling myself when I loose a little weight I'll reward myself and have Jared and I go take a class or something.

3. I have always......always......always wished I had a sister. I thought when I got older it would go away.....but it hasn't. When my baby brother was born and my mom called me from the hospital to tell me it was a boy my reply was, "another one". I have four brothers. I love them dearly don't get me wrong. I just envy when friends I have "go out with their sisters"

4. I hate that people say I am quiet. I know that I am but I just hate when people say that about me. I don't know why it bugs me so much. Maybe because I feel that gets in the way of me making friends sometimes. (I guess this blog lets it all out in the open)

5. I like to daydream about what I would do if I suddenly come into a huge amount of money. Most of the time it is: get completely out of debt,travel somewhere fun, buy a new car, help out people, invest. It really depends on the amount of money my imagination has come up with. Weird I know.

6. I can not rest knowing something is lost. Jared says it is a sickness and he probably is right. If I know that something is missing I can't rest until I have found it. I share this next story, but know I have chilled out some. Once when we were living in DC, McKenna was a baby, and she had lost her shoe at one of the stops on the Metro. I hopped two trains to find it, and I did find it.

7. I love playing sports. I have always loved it. I played volleyball, basketball and tennis. I tried track but found out I had to run (and that was all it was -- running). I wanted to play city softball growing up but my dad had something against it I am not quite sure what because my brothers all played....maybe that was it. He didn't want his only girl doing the same things the boys were doing....I think it had the opposite affect. I miss playing. Since my knees are so bad I shy away from playing for the fear I will mess them up even more or be in pain for days. So, I am hoping after this surgery that I can get back to some of the things I love.

8. (Just for kicks) I want David Bromstad, the first winner of Design Star, to come and do my house, heck I'd settle for a room.
