Taking a quick break from telling our foster care journey (which will continue next Monday), here’s a little list of some Fun Facts about myself …
- I am a sucker for containers and organizers. I love them. I use them. I figure out ways to accumulate them.
- In general, I prefer the look of raw wood over painted wood. Oh, and the smell of wood. aaahh. Home Depot and Lowe’s lumber departments … they smell so good!
- Speaking of stores and smells, I really like the smell of shoe stores. I went into Payless Shoe Source the other day and absolutely loved the smell of the store. I breathed it in, literally. I’m not sure if it’s the leather, the rubber soles, the canvas shoes, or a combination of it all? Nevertheless, I thoroughly enjoy it. Side note – I bought Bro some new shoes while there … size 15! Wowza.
- My favorite numbers are 2 and 22. But, not 222 or 2,222. Keep it simple. 2 and 22.
- I dream of doing a nation wide road trip with Papa after the kids move out. It sounds too stressful to do it with kids in such a small of space for long stretches of time. Yes, after they move out sounds like a lovely time to do an RV/trailer road trip.
- I eat peanut butter almost every single day. It’s pretty rare if I go a day without eating it (whether on toast, in a sandwich, or by the spoonful).
- I feel fancy when I wear fingernail polish. I don’t wear it often as it always chips or gets messed up on the very first day. But, I do enjoy it while it lasts.
- I use a “Happy Planner” for my every day to-do list. It has taken me some time to find my groove with it, but I’ve finally found it and it’s amazing. Super simple. No fluff. No stickers. No fancy colored pens or designs. Just my good ol’ mechanical pencil, some check-off boxes, and my planner. Makes my life so much easier to manage!
