7 Things Meme (2 blogs in one day?! Wow!)

Jaymi the Flip Flop Mamma has a get to know me blog and I thought I'd do one too.
Here you go, 7 strange/different things you may not already know about me

1. Since I got married, my middle name and last name now rhyme. It is annoying.
2. I sleep with my Cardinals blanket. TheOldMan calls it my blankie.
3. I've worn glasses since I was 8. My first pair was pink and plastic. (Awesome, I know)
4. I don't wear my wedding ring. It is too big since I lost 60 lbs. Have I mentioned that? ;)
5. I was part of the gifted program in elementary school. I hated it. It was unstructured learning. Couldn't handle it.
6. I puked on old Busch Stadium. I had NOT been drinking.
7. My first job was at Dairy Queen. It lasted a month.

Merry Christmas. I finally blogged.



Well posting a couple of pictures probably doesn't count as blogging but I really haven't been able to think of anything to blog about. I've started babysitting 13 month old twins so Praise God, we've got a little extra income. We have been blessed already so much this Holiday season and we're especially grateful to God for our family and our incredibly great kid. He is learning everyday and amazing us with his hilarious personality. He is so full of life and a wonderful little human being.
So if I don't blog again this week, Merry Christmas :)

painfully dumb

I urge you to check out Hermano's Blog

He has a video posted on there that will make you sad.
Not crying sad but sad for our future. People like this woman are out there making babies, teaching children, VOTING. The dumb is overwhelming.
