Confessions

I tend to wear pajamas all day if I am not going anywhere

I almost never answer the phone... I am a total phone-phobic

I get inordinately excited when Noah uses the potty

I really enjoy reality TV shows (my current vice is The Bachelor...I just can't seem to look away....and I really want to. I have tried several times.)

I STILL have not gone anywhere with just me and both kids

I hate giving massages, but love, love, love getting them

I drive too fast

I think Dory (from Finding Nemo) is huh-larious!

I get anxious when I pass people while I am driving - I am afraid they won't see me and might try to come into my lane

We don't ever make the bed unless company is coming over

I countdown the hours until Noah's naptime (Anna's, too)

I still struggle with resentment towards my parents

I think Anna is the prettiest baby I have ever seen (at least since Noah was a baby)

Don't hate me, but I think gays should be allowed to marry...it seems to me that it is (or should be) a civil right whether it is morally right or not

I miss teaching a little more every year

I do not eat enough vegetables...not by a long shot

I wish I personally knew Beth Moore and her daughter Amanda - I just love them

Embarrassing fact - I need to lose about 70 lbs. Wow.

First of all, LOVE the new blog look. Too cute! Also the phone thing makes me laugh (calling for pizza), Love reality T.V, though not the Bachelor (although I have in the past and it is so addicting, but Kore refuses to sit in the same room when it's on), mine is Survivor! Love Dory too and I do drive fast too. Subbing has helped drown out the teaching woes (and I find I REALLY miss my kids when I am away) and about the weight...the gym is a great place to start! Who doesn't need to shed a few pounds! U Go Girl!

Heather - so funny....do you remember that time freshman year when I had jodi call to cancel that credit card account I opened because I was too afraid to call myself and then the representative figured it out and irritatedly asked to speak to the real Kimberly Higginbotham? So funny.

Cute list. I never knew you were phone phobic. LOL Robbie is like that too and I seriously feel like his secretary half the time. I'm currently addicted to the Bachelor too and I'm so ashamed. Why oh why is it so interesting? I remember your driving and I can seriously hear your giggle so clear in my head.

I'm glad that you love and appreciate my little boy who has grown into such a fine man. I am proud of all of you and love you all. I really do not like to make phone calls although I don't mind answering the phone. I don't like reality TV - Haven't watched American Idol since being with you last summer but I do like to watch HGTV. I'm doing Walk Away The Pounds video but I'm going to have to do a LOT of walking. I just hope I have more energy and stamina for my next visit.

I think I remember you telling that story of Jodi calling the CC company...you're so funny. I make Lee call for all the "man" type calls...like fixing the windshield...calling our lessors to fix the water heater, etc. But I'll call for pizza now!!!! In about 8 years...so will Brooklyn!

Wow there are so many I relate to. I also like the relaxed lifestyle (pjs and unmade beds). I avoid the phone at all costs ;) and love The Bachelor. I'm with you on the veggies (why can't they come in convenient packaging like candy bars??) and gay marriage. Counting down time 'till naps (and bedtime) is a must! And about the weight... gosh... I finally stopped gaining a couple months ago. Now I'm trying South Beach and it's helped a lot (15 down, 30 to go)... ugh! When people notice I tell them that I figured it was time to lose the pregnancy weight. ;)
