if i had known caitlin would tag me to reveal ten things, i may have saved my little admission about my love of action movies….. . but i think i managed to come up with ten more.
-
I hate to cut grass, as a child it was my most hated chore. Ryan and I have an arrangement. I never cut the grass, he doesn’t even know how to work the washer and dryer.
-
I am a big sci-fi fan. I believe in aliens. Not little green men probing rural farmers aliens, but I believe that we couldn’t possibly be alone in the universe.
-
I love fashion. When I was young I wanted to be a fashion designer. I’ve been watching fashion television since I was 12. In grade 8, as part of the enrichment program at my school I got to go to Toronto with the enrichment teacher, to take a tour of Flare magazine and meet the fashion editor. Now I feed it by watching things like What Not To Wear, Project Runway, and Say Yes To The Dress.

Related to that I also designed, and choose the fabric for my wedding dress, which my mom sewed ( the downfall of my above mentioned dream was that i love fashion, but i learned, hate to sew )
-
I am an adult child of divorce. I was 19 when my parents divorced, people often think that makes it easier. It does not.
-
When I was 16, I moved 3 hours away to live with my grandmother on my mom’s side. I lived with her until I was 18 and then got my own place.
-
Parenting four kids is my biggest challenge every single day. Sure it’s easy to have four kids, but being a good parent to them is anything but easy.
-
I love to shop. Not in a spend lots of money, come home laden with bags type way. I just love to browse. I could spend an entire day wandering a mall and not buy anything, and it’s not just malls. I love auctions, yard sales, flea markets, and little down towns with cool stores. I love finding the perfect thing or the great deal. My favorite person to shop with is my mom.
-
I haven’t had a drink in eight years. I stopped drinking when i got pregnant with sidney and just never bothered to again. I don’t know why, it’s not a committed “i will not drink” type thing, but i guess, for me, it’s something i don’t feel really meshes with the 24 hour commitment of parenting small children. I expect as the kids get older i’ll be likely to have the odd beer or glass of wine.
10. I love peaches, but hate all things peach flavored
like ryan, pretty much all the blogs i read regularly have already done this so i guess it stops here.
