Weigh in Friday and Who Are You...Part 1

Well I weighed in this morning at 157. Which is half a pound up from last Friday. Which SUCKS because when I weighed on Wednesday I was 155.5! I knew I shouldn't have indulged in those skittles and that full size crunch bar on Thursday...dang it!


Kim over at That's The Thing About Destiny is doing a 6 part get to know you link up! Since I don't know who all reads this (if anyone...crickets?) I figured on the off chance someone is and they don't know me (or know me well), I'd chime in a sing all my praises ;)

List 20 random facts about yourself: In no particular order
1. I'm a recovering klutz.

14. I have both bad parts of my parents hands, my dad's sausage fingers, and my mom's paper thin finger nails.

Three legitimate fears:
1. Being kidnapped
2. My parents dying
3. Trevor dying while racing his mustang

Describe your relationship with your spouse:
Engaged. He is truly the only man (besides my dad) that can knock me down a peg and "handle" me. I'm known to be ornery.  I am so so in love with him. He can always make me laugh, and we just have so much fun together.


10 things you would tell your 16 year-old self, if you could:
1. Make sure you're always where you tell your parents you'll be. You didn't know till college, but Dad would follow you.
2. Don't quit swimming to spend more time with your first boyfriend.
3. You're not fat, your skinny fat and just need to hit the weights!
4. Just because the cookies at school are 25 cents doesn't mean you need to buy 4 everyday plus a fudge bar.
5. Don't convince your dad to let you drive up to school to see your boyfriend after a football game, you end up running your car into a pole in the school parking lot and putting a $1300 hole in your radiator (you had to pay $1000) idiot...don't drive forward looking out the side window.
6. Don't go back to swim practice too soon after getting your tonsils removed. You choke on your uvula at practice.
7. Try to make more friends.
8. Quit flirting with all the waitstaff at the restaurant you hostess at. They're all WAY too old for you.
9. If you're uncomfortable, blame it on Mom and Dad and leave with them.
10. Don't make the banger kid you think you have a crush on a cheesecake then deliver it, you look desperate.
