Day 2- Something that Stresses Me Out

Hahaha...I had to laugh when I saw this. If you asked Britt he would say breathing and life stresses me out. I try to not stress about too much but somethings that always get me are...money, money, money, being sick, if I am doing a good job, if i could be better, crowds, unorganized or organized chaos etc. My mother in law always says ask yourself if is it essential to salvation? If its not than there is no use worrying and stressing about it. I try to live that way and often find myself asking that question and than chilling out just a bit.

Day 1-Self Portrait and 15 random facts

Well 15 random facts about me!
1. I hate having my picture taken. I always have like fourteen chins and no neck. So hence the no self portrait. (I also can't find the camera at the moment.)
2. I am a very anxious person. I worry and fret about everything, not to the point of panic attacks or anything like that, but I definitely loose sleep some nights! I worry about things that have happened and things that are coming up.
3. I love reading. I don't do it much because once I start the book I must finish it and everything else falls apart.
4.I love pop. A little fizz everyday is a good thing. I am totally addicted. It really started when I was pregnant and so sick but I just haven't been able kick the habit! Gotta say my favorite is Dr. Pepper and Coke!
5. I can not visualize things very easily! Like if Britt is drawing a room out on how it should be organized, I can totally not visualize what he means!
6. I  love talking and visiting with people and would rather do that than anything else. My phone bill can prove it. I spend many minutes talking to my sisters every week.
7. I love text messaging. I think it is one of the greatest inventions ever.
8. I hate being hot. I would rather be on the cold side, than hot and sweaty.
9. I love to cook and bake, but don't do it as often as I would like. (having a picky eater really puts a damper on things.)
10. I totally rely on routines to get through my weeks. If something changes it totally throws my whole day off.
11. I thought I would have a whole handful of kids, but now that I have one I think I am done.
12. I hated being pregnant. (Probably because I was extremely sick the whole time, once the "morning"sickness eased (it never went away) the gall bladder problems started.) I finally feel like myself again almost 3 years later!
13. I don't wear jewelry. I just don't. I always think it looks nice on others, but can't seem to pull it off.
14. I do not go to "parties". You know the ones, tupperware, norwax, scentsy, etc. I really dislike those things. You always feel like you HAVE to buy something and than never use it.
15. I am seriously in secure and always worry what people will think of me if they knew certain things about me!

That was much harder than I had anticipated. I knew it would be difficult but I really had to think about it. I started this morning, and am just able to finish it!

So I decided I should actually try the blog thing agian...last time I last 3 whole posts! My idea is to post once a week! Things have been crazy around here. Makayla is changing and growing so fast. She is constantly making us laugh and doing insane things! She is such a confident free spirit. Sometimes I wish I just had a little less inhibition and would be more out going and confident.
