Tagged: 5 things about me

My cute cousin Christie was challenged to write 5 things about herself and then tagged me to do the same. Since I never made it around to doing it on instagram I figured I'd write it on here and look back on it and see what, if any, things have changed!

1) I am obsessed with cards, games, game shows, you name it. I usually plan my work outs around Wheel of Fortune. I like to go to the gym from 4:45-6:00 so I can get home just in time for Wheel of Fortune! If I have to go to the gym later for some reason, I like to plan it so I can be running on the treadmill from atleast 6:00-6:30 so I can watch it then! ha ha. Someday I'll be on it! :)

One of my favorite memories ever--being on the Price is Right when I was 18!! I was so flustered but had so much fun. 

2) I love to run. . . But HATE to run outside! Andrew always laughs at me saying that I'm a high maintenance runner--need a fan near me, TV to watch, music to listen to, and a piece of gum in my mouth haha. I think it was from when I lived with my sister in Las Vegas for a summer and had to train for a marathon while living there. There was no way I could run outside in that heat! I ran a full marathon with my sister and sister-in-law in 2009 and have run 2 half marathons and running my 3rd in DC in April with my sister and old roomie and can't wait for a mini girls vacation!

3) When I feel stressed or have a lot to do, I feel like I have to clean before I can start what I actually need to do. A happy house makes me a happy girl. I also bite my nails....still trying to stop 22 years later! Such a bad habit but so hard to stop. Right now I have fake nails on in hopes that I will stop biting them when I take them off since I can't bite them now. Cross your fingers for me. . .
I also bite my straw. It drives my husband crazy but I like to sip my drink out of it that way!

4) I hate cooking for just me. I don't feel like it's worth it to make a big mess for me to have to clean up. In college I would go through like 10 boxes of cereal in 2 weeks. When Andrew goes out of town for a week, I seriously lose 5-7 pounds because I just eat cereal, eggs, oatmeal and fruit. Kind of pathetic, I know.

5) When I was little, I used to use my mom's old teaching manuals and play school ALL the time. It didn't matter if I was playing with my siblings, friends, or by myself, I always wanted to be the teacher! So far I have taught 2nd grade for 2 years now and love those little 8 year olds! And actually I just love little babies and kids in general!
