My 25 Random Things

First off I did not think that I would do this.  I have been “tagged” by a bunch of my facebook friends to do this, and I am finally giving in. However, I chose to put it on my blog. Content is content, and I’d rather have it over here. I guess I’ll copy it over there, so that I can continue the tagging fun.

Rules:
Once you’ve been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it’s because I want to know more about you.

1. I am madly in love with my best friend. Gina and I met in middle school, dated in high school, and married after college. I can not imagine my life without her.
2. I would do anything for my family. I hate it when I am away from them.
3. While some may label me a workaholic, I see God’s design in my life. I have been fearfully and wonderfully made. I believe I was created to serve Him.
4. I am a reality show junkie. Gina and I watch a lot of reality TV. Yes, I could probably use that time to do more productive tasks. I am normally working during this tv watching time. 
5. I love it when I come home from work and my daughters run to the door to greet me. 
6. I have SED. I’ve had it my whole life. It does not affect my daily activities.  I am often made fun of because of this disorder, but I don’t let it bother me. I am willing to accept the fact that I will continue to have SED my whole life. Again, I am fearfully and wonderfully made. 
7. I am a big time NASA nerd. You will often find me reading up on current events that are happening in Space. I wish that I could go to space one day. I am such a geek in this that I enjoy reading transcripts of space flight. Did you know that NASA has transcripts of the Apollo missions online. You can read the conversation between the astronauts and ground control!
8. I have sung a cappella for two US Presidents. Once in B Natural for Bush Sr, once in One Voice for Jimmy Carter.
9. I have had glasses since the 2nd grade. I am near blind without them.
10. I have snow skied once. In Sweden. I did not enjoy it.  See number 9. My glasses kept fogging up, we eventually tried to ski without them. That was a horrible idea.
11. I’ve been married for 10 and 1/2 years. Our first house was in Sugar Hill, Georgia. We lived there for almost 6 years before moving back to Norcross.
12. I normally do not have to travel further than 5 miles from my house for anything. I work about 1 1/2 miles from home. All food options are within a 5 mile distance. Even my church is less than 5 miles away.
13. I have been a member at 4 churches in my lifetime. North Peachtree Baptist, Buford First Baptist, North Metro Baptist, and now Norcross Baptist Church.
14. I play no instruments, but am wanting to learn acoustic guitar. I am hoping that Nathan Lee is taking on students.
15. I once got in trouble for hitting my brother, Chad with a whip-cream pie.
16. I was accepted to Shorter College in Rome, Georgia, but ended up staying home and attending Dekalb College, and Georgia State University because of financial reasons.
17. I have never had a drink of alcohol. No desire to in the future. Ditto on the smoking
18. I thought WebVan was going to change grocery shopping as we know it. I wish it were back.
19. I own half of a Play Station 2. Unfortunately, I don’t have custody of it at this time.
20. I own four cats. They live downstairs. Clover, Lucky, Hermione, and Hagrid. They will out live me.
21. Our current house was not for sale, when we made an offer on it. One of the perks of having a quality realtor.
22. I enjoy a slurpee or icee on occasion – Frozen Mountain Dew…epic.
23. We homeschool. 
24. I am constantly cracked up by my children. They are too smart for me.
25. I’m Free. I have been Forgiven.
