    1. I have red hair. My husband has red hair. My kid has red hair. We are preserving the species.
    2. The sound of cardboard rubbing on cardboard makes me want to vomit.
    3. I used to be a hotel maid. Never again.
    4. I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan. BUT, I started reading them way before they were popular, so I didn't join in after there was a large fandom.

    We have 2 bunnies (both male)- rex and lop ear, a husky puppy, and a tree frog that we found in our backyard.

    I love to go hiking and camping. If I could I would probably life in a tent. well more realistically, a cabin in the woods or next to a lake. When I was a teenager I went on a camping trip in Boundary Waters. Someday, I still want to take my kids and go back.
    Until a few months ago, I didn't know how to make a fire. I learned in my fire place, but I'm still very afraid of fire.
    Yes, I was a fairly useless Girl Scout.
    mosquitoes don't seem to bite me as much as other people.

    I still have scars on my legs from poison ivy a few years ago. if was fairly severe.
    I got this from walking in an abandoned golf course.
    Then I still went back several times, knowing I might get poison ivy again.
    But I loved being there so much. It was like nature was taking over, and it was awesome :)

    I can't stand the taste or smell of real mayo, and now I almost never use Miracle Whip either.
    I use a small amount in tuna salad, that's all.

    I hate the smell grape jelly and grape koolaid, When I was a kid, I often ate just pb sandwiches if grape was the only flavor available. The only flavors of gum I like are mint and cinnamon. The smell of bubblicious can make me nauseous.
    But I love any kind of actual grapes and real grape juice.

    My first paycheck was from detasseling corn.

    I still have a slight aversion to russet potatoes, because growing up I ate them almost every day for dinner.
    Usually boiled.

    I plucked feathers off of chickens when I was a kid, and to this day I can't stand touching raw meat. I almost always cook it
    straight from frozen. I eat chicken breasts or tenderloins several times a week, (no beef, no pork, very rarely seafood)
    and I'm still not tired of chicken. I've been doing this for close to 12 years.

    I don't like pepperoni very much, I often pick it off and give it away.

    I have too many food related weaknesses, but generally they have to do with cheese.

    I don't like most kinds of candy.

    On road trips growing up the only restaurant we went to was Subway. I always ordered the same- 6 inch seafood

    I've never broken any bones or sprained anything.

    My ankle bone is extremely small and flat. Even when I was a healthy weight, it was unseen.

    My hands are small. Everyday I do all the cooking, but I use a paring knife, because a chef's knife is too big,
    it's not comfortable.

    wow I didn't realize it was that long.

    I LOVE earrings, so far I have 4 piercings on my both ears.
    I have a thing for guys in uniforms (army, police, etc) :love:
    I can never endure being dry-skinned, so I always have to carry lotion or cream with me EVERYWHERE (literally)

    1) I am extremely social, but HAVE to have a day or two where I speak to no one and just read all day long
    2) I hate TV but love movies (although watching Stargate is one of my favorite past times)
    3) I am a complete ancient history buff (planning to get my PhD in the classics)
    4) I love boxing even though I don't actually like to fight (hitting people makes me feel bad, they never did anything to me!)
    5) I really don't like hanging out with girls but I was in a sorority in college
    6) I would never consider myself a girly girl (never do my nails, love going without makeup), but when I dress up I go all out (high heels, dresses, you name it)
    7) I'm a sci-fi fanatic
    8) I get way too overly emotional and attached to characters in movies & books (I cry during every single one..sometime I have to put the book down becasue I can't see the words anymore)
    9) Black is my favorite color because it goes with everything and just looks elegant
    10) I LOVE animals (my dog was a stray when I found him 12 years ago and he's still going strong!)
    11) Alcohol and cookies are my weakness
    12) I don't have any tatoos

    I think that's enough for now :happy:

    Every year, since I was two yrs. old, my summer vacation has been a weeklong camping trip. I always say we should try something else, but then I get sad about not camping, so camping it is:)

    This is my family!!! We go to the Frio River every year!

    People are surprised when I tell them I swear a lot. I really am like a trucker. It is terrible and I am trying to curb it! I don't know when it started!

    I think my fingertips are going to be stained purple permanently because I just ate frozen blueberries. Looks like I have seriously bad circulation.

    Congrats, and best wishes to you!

    Also, as someone else said, I love a fresh made bed and make mine as soon as I hit the floor most days!

    I love my cats and dog, and they follow me into the garden where I spend lots of time weeding and crossing my daylilies.
    I am hoping to hybridize a white daylily with red toothy or fringy edges.

    Once I get to the gym, I always enjoy it, it's just getting there that's hard. I have made friends with a workout buddy who doesn't drive and depends on me for transportation, so I must not let her down. Picking her up is great motivation for me to get out and get to the gym!

    This place is great motivation for me to log in my foods and exercise, and a great place to chat with others who have the same goals I do. I have learned so much here, and hope to learn even more.

    Instead of a morbid funeral, when I die, I want to be cremated and have my family & friends go out on a big boat on my birthdate, have an awesome party in my memory, with my kids throwing my ashes into the Atlantic Ocean during the fireworks. However, it would be way too cold & dangerous so I'll leave it up to my kids choose a more appropriate & safer date.

    I'm Kate.

    I'm a Social Worker.

    I can't concentrate for very long.

    I draw my 8's with 2 circles instead of how you're meant to.

    I love day light savings.

    Country music is my favourite.

    I got my first grey hair when I was 17.

    I get way too excited when I find money in my pocket that I didn't know was there.

    I love listening to old peoples stories.

    I hate acknowledging my birthday.

    I think I only got my tongue pierced because mum said I couldn't.

    I get butterflies when I overtake other cars.

    I can't stand people- pleasers.

    I laugh when people hurt themself.

    All I want in life is to be thin.

    I'd rather watch movies from Hollywood's Golden Age (1930's-1950's) than a huge blockbuster.
    I'm attracted to men who are not typically labeled as "good looking". Hence the coined phrase "Annie Hot".
    I enjoy talking to people who are odd and different.
    I believe getting drunk every once and awhile is good for the soul.
    I was runner up for homecoming queen and prom queen.
    I can't spell to save my life.

    I am already a retired school teacher
    My late husband and I own 218 rental units and I still do all painting in them
    Got my first tattoo at the age of 58, a Free pink ribbon for cancer, I was allergic to it and had to have it surgically removed, cost over $50,000 because of complications.
    I am 61 years old, picture is from last June.
    My 22 year old grandson and wife are going to make me a great grandma in May.
    My son was in Iraq for two years, so I didn't sleep for two years. he is home now so sleep good, except for tonight,
    I pray everyday.
  • I love to start fires by hand (with magnesium usually) and cooking with it. I find it rewarding and soothing (the flames mostly) especially after a hike.

    Learning to cook I have realized it is easier for me to curb my hunger and eat better. 5 oz rib-eye steak and potatoes (roughly around 400 cal) beats cheeseburger with fries (around 600 cal)

    I find happiness restoring stuff. I currently own a 66 mustang that I'm working on and prior to that i had 1960 ford F100. I recently restored a cast iron skillet that I found which happened to be rusted pretty badly. I think there is beauty in re-using something that someone might have given up on

    And lastly i want to point out that I actually CAN believe it's not butter.
