blahhhhhhhgggg (boring blog)

It seems I used to have so much to blog about. Funny things my kids said, or interesting little stories to share. And while my life is still busy I just don't find it very exciting to blog about how many loads of laundry I've done, how many accidents Natty is having or even all the places I've driven people to and from everyday.




So I'm going to do a 15 day challenge that I read on a friends blog.

Day 1 - Self Portrait and 15 Interesting Facts About Me!





1. I love to fill out forms. About anything. I just think it's fun.


2. I love to eat chips. It's disgusting really. Once I start I can't stop until I am sweating.... literally. I sweat when I eat chips. (see...you may not have wanted to know that but this is interesting!)


3. I love to decorate. I wish I had the money to make my house the way I really want it but am too cheap to spend the money on the things I need.


4. When people ask where I'm from, I never know what to say. I lived in Calgary until I was 15 then moved to Cardston where I finished High School. I feel like I have more ties to Cardston so I usually say Cardston but I actually only lived there for 3 years. And really, I feel like I did most of my "growing up" in Lethbridge....


5. I had 5 babies in 7 years.


6. I love to cook and bake. Once again I am usually too cheap to spend the money I'd need to make this hobby of mine a full-blown talent. But I do what I can and enjoy it. I love to read food blogs and am constantly trying new recipes.


7. I love to throw things in the garbage. Like when you finish off a tube of toothpaste or a box of baking soda. Then you get to throw away all the packaging for the new stuff. Love it!


8. I spend ridiculous amounts of money on skin care products.


9. I have never been into a bar.


10. I love, love, love to read. I have a huge stack of books beside my bed and a whole page of books on hold at the library. Always.


11. I recently dyed my hair.


12. I am looking forward to my girls growing up and doing all the girly stuff with them. I really hope I can be a good mother and friend to my children and they will come to me for advice when they need a friend.


13. I have been para-sailing in Cancun.


14. I love the smell of Pampers. Clean ones of course.


15. I used to love walking down the aisle with sippy cups and soothers. I had an addiction to buying soothers and always loved to look at the new cups and fun things for babies.

i love reading your posts. your chip comment made me laugh. i love to bake but not cook, i wish i loved to cook, but yeah if i had an unlimited grocery budget i think i would like it a lot more. i must say i really dislike filling out passport forms, do you think that is fun? i've been parasailing in nc it was lots of fun, and i really admire you that you had 5 babies in 7 years, and i think we need to start a book club!

I loved the comments. I never really got into the smell of pampers, maybe it's changed since my day. I love that you keep a blog and I can read about your thoughts on things. Keep up the good work. PLEASE
