Ten Secrets

I've seen a lot of bloggers doing this lately, so I thought I would join in on the fun!

Day 1: 10 Secrets

10. I hate working out but like to pretend Im in better shape. When i get winded while running I tell Dutch its because Im really a "sprinter" or a "short distance runner".

9. I have never or will never go to Taco Bell.

8. I love shopping (clothing/groceries/etc) ALONE. : ) No offense. I dont like people hovering over me if its in a store (at the mall) they arent interested in. Or giving the stink face when I pull out a top to look out. lol. Alicia is the only exception to this. We like the same stores and the same way of shopping. Maybe Ive just had bad experiences.

7. It makes me crazy when people ask me "decorator questions" or ask how long I have been a "decorator". Or did I really have to go to school to become a "decorator". IM A DESIGNER PEOPLE! lol : )

6. I am on the 4th paint color in our office. (over the past 5 years) I think its my never ending design mind that always sees a better way to do things in there. And its such a random space It could be so many things. Guest room/office/tv room/gym/playroom/craft area/etc. I cant commit. Currently LOVING my black and white stripes and white chair rail but trying to make sure Im 100% on the peacock blue. (i think its because I havent painted the opposite wall with the blue yet so options are still open! ugh)

5. I wish my life was exactly how it is. (great family/husband/job/house/yard/safe area to live/weather) but located in Austin Texas.

4. Sometimes I think I like to plan things more than I actually enjoy the event.

3. Im a RSVP stalker.

2. I have road rage. If you stop for a school bus at a divided highway, or I need to turn right and you wont scoot up the 1" necessary for me to get by , and make a right. Or you go 10 mph below the speed limit.... I will give you the stink face.

1. I hate our yard. With a passion. and hate that people have to see it all overgrown. I feel like were "that house". Last weekend I pulled up all the ivy/crap by our kitchen window. I found a bakers rack under the ivy that I cleaned up and spray painted glossy black (duh. lol) and am going to put it in our kitchen to store cook books/etc. Found info online about clearing an area, putting down newspapers, then mulch over it. Will help weeds/crazy crap from coming up. I hope to get it to a point soon where the front is clear and mulched and a clean starting point.
