Ta Ta Ta tagged

This is for Stacy

Here are the rules:
1. Link to the person that tagged you, and post the rules on your blog.
2. Share 7 random and/or weird facts about yourself.
3. Tag 7 random people at the end of your post, and include links to their blogs.
4. Let each person know that they’ve been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

I'm not this totally mysterious person, so most of you will probably know these things about me.

1. When I was little my hair was cut really short and my neighbor repeatedly called me a boy. :(

2. I am a nervous, anxious person. I'm such a worrier. When I was little and we had a school day off, I used to make my mom drive past the school just to make sure no one was there and that we really had the day off.

3. This is part of #2. I have this weird fear that where ever I am living, it will start on fire and burn down. Probably because all I ever see on the news is stories about houses on fires. Seriously I worry about this. Ask Mike, he will tell you.

4. I love to run, but its been very hard to go lately when it's in the 20's and dark at 4:00 in the afternoon.

5. I can "crack", "pop", my big toe on demand. (Fairclough, this is like your elbow thing you do.)

6. I would love to be a meteorologist. I love teaching but I would totally rather be a weather girl. I find weather fascinating.

7. I plan my meals everyweek. I sit down, decide what Mike and I are going to eat each day of the week, then make my grocery list for the week. Little OCD, I know, but it saves us money and it makes to easy to come home after work and make dinner because it's already planned out and I have what I need.

I am not going to TAG anyone this time. But if you would like to do a similar post, I would encourage you to do so if you so desire. It was interesting to try to come up with weird things you think people might not know about you.

I totally remember your crazy big toe! Remember back in the day when we would crack/pop eachother's backs? We're going to have serious arthritis soon!
P.S. I have always secretly wanted to be a weather girl too! Love that Weather Channel!

Sorry I tagged you, I didn't realize how sick of those you were. That's the problem with only having 7 blogger friends. You have to tag them all. :)

Anywho, I think you're funny!!
I plan my meals just the same as you, I even make my grocery list in the order that I walk the store and I load my groceries on the checker belt heaviest to lightest, so in case they are lamos, they won't smoosh my groceries.

Talk about OCD control freak!!

I can totally relate to #2. I also, reluctanly admit that I am such a worrier. Sometimes, it worries me how much I worry, so AHHHH!!! Glad to know there is someone out there that is a worm about it. Meterologist huh? Girlfriend, go for it. You'd rock.

Just for the record . . . the neighbor next door who called you a boy was suffering from serious dementia. She also walked in our front door--remember?--and asked ME what I was doing in HER house.
Also, I'm pretty sure we have video of you being a weather girl. Maybe we should pull that out this Christmas. I don't think Mike has seen it. LOL!

Laura-"you gotta be kidding me. Everything you just said is my favorite thing to do, every day!" (you say that with a Nacho Libe accent) For example:

-In 4th grade I had the boy short hair cut. I was at school doing music day and I volunteered to play the cello. I was struggling and someone in class told the music teach to help me and he said to the kid, "It's okay HE'S doing fine." I am scarred for life.

I am fascinated by storms/ weather too! When we were in Nauvoo it was tornado season and I desperately hoped that one would come! I am also fascinated with thunder/lightening.

Okay friend, thanks for your fun blog!
