I am so stoked and honored! Jess from
Here Comes the Sun gave me the Kreativ Blogger award! Thanks Jess! If you guys don't follow Jess' blog you definitely should. She has the cutest little boy and is expecting baby #2.
With this award I tell 7 things about myself and then pass it on to 10 other bloggers. Fun!
1) Here's another closet Twilight fan. I absolutely loved all of the books and read them in record time. I'm not completely crazy about the movies, but I've watched each one anyways. I just finished the Hunger Games series too and LOVED it. Have I just put myself into nerd status?
2) I love to crochet and would really love to learn to knit. I won't say that I'm awesome at it, but I really have fun with it. My problem is I take on too much and once and then get burned out for awhile. I'm feeling the itch again! My friend, my cousin, and my SIL are all also expecting right now and I want to make some baby stuff. Actually, there are so many craft things that I want to do, but I need a sewing machine to do them and someone (that would be you husband!) got the wise idea to get rid of my hand-me-down sewing machine during one of our moves. An old sewing machine is better than no sewing machine! I loooove to craft when I have the time.
3) I'm STILL in school (a fact I have mentioned before), but I'm so sick of it! I have 1 class left to finally get my Associate's (woohoo!), but then I think I'm going to slow way down and take my time with my Bachelor's. I can't wait to be done, but I need a mental break and I'm in no hurry to re-enter the work force so I figure why not slow down?! I know... I'm ridiculous! I'm tired though.
4) I have a brother and a sister. My sister and I are BFF's and I wish that we lived closer together. I miss her! My brother is in the Marine's and is on his millionth deployment. I hate it when he's gone, it's so scary.
5) This is really gross and not a random fact that you need to know, but it's on my mind. (Grossness alert... skip #5 if you don't want to read about it). My stupid big toes have been infected or sore for over 13 freaking months! I had ingrown toenails and after 2 failed antibiotic treatments I had the sides of the nails removed. They wanted to make it permanent by following the surgical procedure with acid, but couldn't because of the infection. So, a few months after the 1st procedure, I had a 2nd done with acid. That was like 3 months ago and they still aren't healed and are sore and infected! YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! I know some of this has to do with lupus, but this is insane. I did 2 more rounds of antibiotics and it healed everything up, but a few days after they would look nasty again. I go to the podiatrist on Friday and I'm scared to hear what he'll want to do next. Yuck! I'm just ready to have none sore toes and to actually be able to wear something other than flip-flops. Jess you probably regret giving me this award and having to hear about my toenails huh ;).
6) My 4 year wedding anniversary is in 6 days. I'm excited! I don't know if we'll do much because right now my husband is insanely busy with work, but I'm just excited to have four years under our belts.
7) I keep forgetting how old I am. I've been telling people I'm 27, but then sometimes I think I'm 29 and have to do the math to figure out how old I really am. I'm 28. Ridiculous!
It took me way too long to come up with 7 things. I'm boring ;).
I'm passing this award on to:
10) Kristin at Our Growing Garden (I know you just got this award from Jess too, but I love your blog that much)
