10 Random Things About Me

  1. I can’t stand loud noises.  My blood pressure actually rises when I hear them.  I like libraries…so quiet.
  2. I like to go straight to the bottom of the bag when eating potato chips.  The crumbs are my favorite part.  And don’t forget about the burnt ones…simply the best!
  3. My first born starts kindergarten this fall.  I think about it every day.  I know she will love it, but I’m going to be a complete mess.
  4. When I am thinking about things, I actually type out the words in my head.  Is this normal?
  5. I hate applying eye liner.  I’ve known people to get it tattooed onto their eye lids, but don’t know that I’d ever have the courage.
  6. I developed melasma (patchy, brown discoloration of skin) on my forehead after my 2nd baby was born and it faded rather quickly.  It came back after I had baby #3 (4 months ago) and it was darker and worse than before.  I’m trying L’Oreal’s Spot Serum Corrector and I think it’s working.  I should have taken a before pic.  Anyone else have a problem with this?  If so, can you recommend anything?
  7. I reached my pre-pregnancy weight a couple of weeks ago (yey!), but I’m not really into numbers.  I kinda go with how I feel and let me tell you…things have shifted.  I know it’s only been 4 1/2 months, so I must give it more time.  I also know that since I’m breastfeeding, it will take longer for me to return to semi-normal.  At least that’s how it was with my first two pregnancies.
  8. I’ve found that as I get older, my fear of crowds is increasing.  I actually have a little “anxiety attack” if you will, just thinking about going to a place with large crowds.  I think it has something to do with worrying about the kiddos and hoping no one gets lost.  Just a guess.
  9. When I make a fruit pie, i love the crust more than the fruit filling and the hubby is the opposite.  We get along really well when eating dessert ;-)
  10. I used to have energy at night to do the projects I am passionate about, but lately I have zero ambition.  After all the kiddos are in bed, I want to do nothing but stuff my face with Oreos eat a couple of snacks while watching the Olympics and head to bed by 10:30 pm.  I don’t mind getting old, but dang, I’d really like some ambition back.
