Ten things...

Ok, I have never shared much about me...except for the fact I love photography...so, here goes...ten random facts:

1.  I love playing tennis, but it can stress me out.  I want to win and do well, if I am not doing well, I am stressed out.  Sigh.
2.  I love animals...we have an eleven year old black lab named Beaumont.  Also, two cats names Lola (10) and Jack almost (3).  They all get a long, pretty well.  I don't mind twisting and turning in my sleep to avoid to bother the kitties.  :)
3.  I wish my mom pushed me to stay in activities when I was younger.  I tried dance (ballet, jazz, tap), gymnastics, skating when I was younger.  My mom said I complained and she didn't sign me up again.  My kids complain and I still push them.  I wish she pushed me to stick with something!
4.  I had the highest IQ in my kindergarten class.  Not sure what it was, but they gave me books to read with another smart boy named Billy Mellhouse.  Wonder where he is now.
5.  I love cars, nice cars and am so lucky to have a nice car.  :)  Driving is fun in the right car.
6.  My feet are a size 11.  It stinks.  What really stinks is they used to be a size 10/10.5 until I had kids.  A whole new shoe wardrobe was in order, and I got some great deals and have awesome shoes.
7.  My first brand new car was a Honda Del Sol.  It was white.  It was named the Tic Tac.  I loved that car and it's removable roof and two seats.  I drove it for eight years and sold it for $6k in Seattle before buying my dream car.
8.  I am not a morning person.  Enough said.
9.  I avoid gluten.  Yes, no subway sandwhiches for me.  No pizza.  No wonder bread or pasta (unless it's rice pasta!).  My body just says "no thank you" in it's own way.
10.  I lived in Seattle for seven years.  I think everyone should live away from where they grew up.  It's awesome to move somewhere, start a new job and meet new people...creating a life!  I loved the life we had in Seattle; it just wasn't home.  I love and miss my friends there often.  It was an amazing experience.  Both of our girls and our dog and one of our cats were all born in Seattle!  And, yes, it does rain a lot...from November to April...but it is also 50 degrees almost every day of the year.  (even in the summer)  But, it is sure beautiful when the skies are clear...and it stays light until 10pm.  :)
