Telling the truth never hurt anyone...

I got this idea from my friend Kelly and I really liked it, so I am following her lead...

Things I'm not crazy about....

I tend to gripe at Garrett when he doesn't do things my way. Even though his way might be perfectly fine, I don't like it if it's not my way.

I'm obsessive about the bed being made. So much so that we have to make hotel beds. Yeah, I know.

I don't always answer my phone when I see you call. Sometimes, you just don't feel like talking.

I'm not easy to please. I'm picky about everything - EVERYTHING.

I'm not open to new things. I'm not open to change.

I don't let people in so easily. And I'm sad about this because I missed out on a great friendship possibility (from near) by keeping my heart to myself.

I don't like to vaccuum or sweep, but I sure like to gripe at Garrett for the way he does them.

I gripe still when I think my sister gets more.

I get tend to blow up. Sometimes over very silly things. I let things "fester" inside me and then boil over at very inopportune times.

I am a planner. I want to know what, where and when several days in advance and if I don't and you just happen to "pop" in, I'm NOT happy about it - not one bit.

And as for "popping" in, I need about two weeks notice. Seriously, what if we have plans?

I'm a jealous person. Well, I am.

And selfish too.

Garrett is 100 times more patient and nice than I am.

However, there are somethings I'm proud of:

I spend quality time with my son daily. Even if it's just a craft we do together, or stopping at Starbucks for "Cay" on the way home, I cherish those times with him.

I go to church. It feeds me spiritually and emotionally and I pray it is doing the same for my son.

I make my husband dinner 5 nights a week.

I try very hard to be the best wife and mother I can be.

I'm a planner. (Hey, it can be a good thing too)!

That felt good - try it yourself!
