I was tagged by Shelly to do this meme. Its taken me a couple of days, but here goes!
16 things you might not know about me...
1. I have a slight addiction to stickers. I just love them, always have. I can't leave Jo-Ann's without buying some.
2. I have a serious problem with drinking half a bottle of water and then just leaving it in my car somewhere. I always grab a new bottle when I head out somewhere, but usually never drink it all. I also often get a good collection of glasses of water on my nightstand.
3. I am freaked out by buoys in lakes, oceans, etc. They just TOTALLY freak me out.
4. I have trichotillomania, which is an impulse control disorder where you pull your hair out. I pull out my eyebrows...have since I was in 3rd grade. I know...freakish, but I can't help it and I've gotten over the fact that I'm a little bit crazy. So...I have my eyebrows tatooed.
5. I have two other tatoos...a REALLY cool white one on my foot, and a chinese character on my back that says "stitching your soul to God".
6. I became a Christian when I was 16, but didn't come to really know Jesus and live a life submitted to Him until I was about 21.
7. Exactly 7 years ago today, I packed up my car and moved to Denver to do a church plant.
8. I met my husband doing this church plant.
9. I play the guitar, but I'm terrible at it. I need to practice. :)
10. I went to beauty school and used to work as an esthetician. I am an expert eyebrow waxer...which is ironic since I pull mine out!
11. I often dream of travelling the world...there are SO many places I want to go, the 1st being Machu Picchu, Peru. Then Fiji. Then Greece. And so on...
12. Speaking of traveling, the last year I lived in Denver I was really homesick. I got a job with at an airline and flew home like once a month.
13. I HATE to shop. I do most of my shopping on-line, and order whenever I can. Or I'll go to that store and buy what I've seen on-line.
14. I am one of those people who LOVE, LOVE, LOVES breastfeeding. I think its THE BEST thing you can do for yourself and your baby. I try to encourage everyone to do it. I follow a breastfeeding blog to get ideas and encouragement.
15. I am totally addicted to chapstick and have like a gazillion tubes of it all over my house, car, purses, diaper bags, etc.
16. It brings me great joy to have an abundant supply of things like toilet paper, paper towels, soap, paper, pens, diapers, etc.
Ok! That took a lot of brain power. I'm going to now tag Whitney, Drea, and Diana.

#15 & #16 are totally me too. When my first son Owen was born I actually had 4 tubes of chapstick with me in the hospital. I also love having my pantry and linen closet filled up. I have anxiety about running out of things and never being able to find them at the store again. We all have our quirks!
Thanks for tagging me! I just got back from a quick visit to Florida to visit my in-laws, so I've been a little out of touch with things. I will post soon. :)
ill try and get this up later in the week :-)
