I was tagged by Marin, at one of my favorite blogs, with the 'Six Unspectacular Me Quirks' Meme. In Marins spirit, I have added a picture of myself. I dont have much of a selection on my laptop here, these were from our recent vacation last month. We were on a biking trail around the lake.
What is unspectacular about me? Guess I'll have to narrow it down to just 6 items then!!
1. The first item must be my ability to amuse myself. Often I think I am really funny when no one else does. Like my joke above 'guess I'll have to narrow it down to six '. Yeah, I am still chuckling!
2. I tend to overwhelm myself with projects. Moving, taking care of 2 homes and 2 gardens, this blog, my Soap Making, taking care of baby and husband, the cats, spending hours clipping coupons and organizing each shopping trip, cooking from scratch, sewing, being an overall do-it-yourself-er. You know the drill.
3. I cant break my swearing habit. Its not terrible, and I dont swear at anyone, mainly it comes out when something bad happens. Like I stub my toe and out comes an 'F' bomb. Guess I'll curb it when my daughter is old enough to repeat me!!!
4. I am so happy just being a domesticated mom. I can keep myself so busy at home (and maybe a play group or two) that I may have no desire to ever work again.
5. I am a vegetarian. I am almost a vegan, I rarely eat cheese (mostly friday on my pizza, though I love cheeseless as well) and a little real ice cream now and then. I have no desire to go fully vegan at this time. I like just grabbing the cheapest bread at the store no matter what the ingredients. But I really hate milk, it just disgusts me to imagine drinking the milk nursed from a huge pink bulging cow utter. Sorry.
6. I am not poor. My husband and I drive newer European cars, we wear very nice clothes and live in a very respectable town. I am thrifty because that is the way I was raised. And by saving money I am able to stay home and raise my daughter and have these nice things. Sometimes I feel like a fake because I use so many coupons and only shop the deals. But if I didn't save so much money I might now be here right now. I might be at a REAL JOB! And I like this one much better, so on I continue with the coupon clipping with my head held high proud of all we have accomplished!
