25 Random Things About Me - Part 2

25 Random Things About Me - Part 2

12. Starbucks is my love language. I love my coffee. There is just not much else to say... first step is admitting, right?

13. I love plants. Especially growing Orchids. I haven't had a green thumb for the longest time... so much so my Mom and I each got these air plants that only needed oxygen to survive. Not water or even sun - just oxygen. My Mom's bloomed with the most beautiful flower (didn't even know they did bloom). And mine died. Seriously - didn't have a green thumb for anything. Then I just got a passion for growing Orchids. They are just so beautiful to me. Out of that grew my passion for plants and growing flowers. March has to be one of my favorite months just for the given fact of planting - and yes, I go by the Farmers Almanac on good planting days.

14. I always want to sip my drinks through a straw... I don't care if I'm at home and it's just water...I love it.

16. I don't wear white after Labor Day and before Easter. I love etiquette to the fullest measure. I was raised with the complete Southern Woman etiquette and I love it... you would have thought my Granny wrote the book, but I honestly just love every bit of it. Proper place settings, proper manners, what to and not to wear. Most people think it's silly, but I am one of those who will be passing down proper etiquette to my children.

18. I've known my husband for over half my life. We met when we were kids - one of my favorite things about us. We will get to know more about the beginning of "us" in another blog to come soon.

19. Even though I'm no longer in school - when August rolls around I still feel the need to buy school supplies. It just makes me happy to have new notebooks, pens, and highlighters.

21. Hair Model. I was asked after High School to become a hair model for an upscale hair product. It was a lot of fun and I enjoyed all the new and cutting edge hair cuts.

22. Retainer - I still wear my first retainer at night. It's lime green and glows in the dark. It's the first one I ever got and it's been with me now for 12 years.

23. I could spend countless hours in LifeWay Bookstore. I just love looking at all the books, devotionals, resources, and whatever else I can find. Thankful for such a wonderful and God honoring bookstore.

24. I always start listening to Christmas music before Thanksgiving. And if it wasn't for my man, I would start listening to it in July.

25. I love classic movie musicals!!! Rodgers and Hammerstein are some of my all time favorites movie producers (some of you are googling who that even is). State Fair, Sound of Music, and Cinderella are my absolute favs, but don't fool yourself into thinking I don't have them all. And of course, I sing along to every song in every movie (which my man just loves..haha). I genuinely love old movies.
