I got tagged with the 7 random things tag, and so here is more information than you ever needed to know about me:
1. When I think of people who give their children Bible names I think of home-birthin' bonnet-wearin' fundamentalists somewhere out in the Midwest, but I have 4 "Bible-named" girls. In fact, when my OB found out that we didn't have a name for Rachel, he asked me what my other girls' names were. When I told him he said, "Oh, so are you looking for Bible names?" and I was bugged that he would consider me to be "that kind" of person.
2. I am not a picky person, and will eat just about anything, but I really do NOT like eclairs.
3. I love it when things are clean and hate it when they are messy, but I can only think of a handful of times when I have felt like my whole house was CLEAN (not just straightened, tidied etc.)
4. I love talking about my kids, but really don't enjoy talking about myself. You might notice there are VERY few pictures of me on here. I'm just not a fan of the camera.
5. Despite my lack of desire to be in the limelight, I have no problem speaking in public. I have spoken in Stake Conference, Stake Women's Conference etc. and I enjoy it.
6. I love to write and blog, but I am terrible at keeping an actual "journal." When I reread my journals they never sound sincere and I feel like I come across as a self-righteous prick (and I desperately hope I don't act like that in person)
7. I am a terrible klutz. I am always bruised on my shins from running into things, and paper could be considered a weapon against me (I'm a paper cut magnet). I actually thought of writing a book called "Paper-Cut Problems" when I worked in an office because I would come home at the end of the day with hundreds of paper cuts, and those things hurt like the Dickens!

You don't like eclairs? That is SO weird!
I love the random things post. Funny - I don't like eclairs either, and I feel your pain about journaling! I can completely relate. And no, you don't come across as a self-righteous prick in person! :)
I remember you not being a journal person in HS, but you are doing great now! Hey, this is as good as a journal! It's my new one now -- except for the stuff I type in a Word document or write in a notebook I plan to burn!! How did I not know you didn't like eclairs and that you get lots of papercuts? I never thought you were even a klutz! Boy, the things we can still learn. It's not like those are even new things you've developed! You've been that way forever!
