25 Random Things

I am completely addicted to several things, one being Facebook at the moment. And the rules are, once you have been "tagged" you have to write 25 Random things about yourself and then tag 25 more people. So here we go......25 Random Things about ME!


1. I had to be tagged twice before I was motivated enough to write this.
2. I ran Hood to Coast 2 years ago and averaged an 8 minute mile for 16 miles. However, I haven't found the time to get serious about running again.
3. I am too scared to ride a bike, unless I am in a wide open parking lot all alone. Otherwise, I am afraid I will get hit by a car or fall off a cliff.
4. My Husband is 8 years my senior. I am always saying things like, " I was only in 6th grade when you went on your mission."
5. On that note, I turn the big 3-0 next year, and for the first time in my life, I want a party.
6. I love to cook healthy meals for my family, but some how I always end up in the ice cream at 8pm, stop buying the ice cream!
7. I have 4 kids ages 5 and under!
8. I am an only child.
9. I used to work in the Oncology Unit at Kaiser and I really miss it.
10. My Favorite Shows include but are not limited to the following, Psych, The office, So you think you can dance, American Idol, etc......the list goes on. thank goodness for DVR and the ability to fast forward the boring stuff. Otherwise I would be watching hours of TV.
11. My Husband and I love to remember and sing old commercials and theme songs from sit-coms......"Merry Christmas from Payless, Merry Christmas"........."Together, we're gonna find our way, you and I, together (Silver Spoons)
12. We also can sing "background" music for any situation that comes our way. For example: Today I was telling Maddie to push the bike in the garage so we could close it, and Jared and I both started to sing " Push it, Push it real good" (Salt N Pepa)
13. I really honestly like all kinds of music, except what I like to call "angry music"

21. I think my husband is a much more interesting person than I am, and I tend to talk more about him than I do about myself.
