7 Random Facts About Me

  1. I have moved 25 times in 26 years and, no, I wasn’t a military brat (though I did join the military at 19 and got out 4 years later). In fact, I’m moving tomorrow! 
  2. I love DIY! Here is one of my recent projects. Some of my plans for the holiday season include a deco mesh topiary, a deco mesh door wreath, and this cute ornament tree.  
  3. I haven’t eaten anything with yeast in it in 3.5 years. This includes, but is not limited to: bread, most flavored chips, soups, crackers, and frozen meals. A holistic doctor did a test and told me I was allergic. I have yet to see a “real” doctor for confirmation. Perhaps I should do that…
  4. I’m married to a merchant marine and he just got his 3rd Mate’s (officer’s) license! This basically makes me a badass because reasons. 
  5. I didn’t know how to use Twitter until I started blogging seriously in August. 
  6. I was homeschooled during 6th and 7th grades. When I went back to my private school in the middle of 8th grade I got an A on a test I hadn’t studied for. At the end of the year they gave me the “most improved” award. Because I was homeschooled. And homeschool kids are obviously dumb. My parents threw the “award” away. 
  7. I’m planning to run Mickey’s Jingle Jungle 5k at Disney World next year with my dad and my husband.
