Seven Random Facts

I was tagged to do this by both Bradley of the Egel's Nest and Lynilu so i'll have it set to go for Friday while i'm lazing around at a Bed and Breakfast in lovely Beaufort, SC. Don't hate! ;)

I don't even care what the weather is like.
If I get one walk around the downtown area, visit the chocolate shop and we get some good seafood - we can stay in and order delivery for the remainder of the time.
It's all about "us" and togetherness this time.
I did mention to him that I want to take a carriage ride if possible though. Okay off to the randomnes........

1) Although I am TERRIFIED of heights I forces myself to go parasailing a few years back and LOVED the experience. It was one of the most peaceful things i've ever done. I do not, however, see myself jumping out of an airplane - ever.

2) In my twilight years I hope to live somewhere in a very old apartment or house. Something about old buildings just "calls" to me. I love crown moulding, hardwood floors, fireplaces, old light fixtures, old doors and doorbells, old windows. Love them.

3) I get such pleasure out of doing things and spending time with my daughter. Sometimes her "babyishness" annoys me. What I mean is, when she whines or babytalks intentionally (and Yes, I know all kids do it).
When we are just sitting - talking about things or she's involved in playing and i'm just watching her, I get a feeling of such joy and pride.
She really is a funny, intelligent kid and I am proud that other people seem to "like" her so much.

4) I am getting a tad nervous about the election. Living in the conservative South I really wonder how people will react if Obama is elected. Will there be rioting in the streets? I really wonder. People down here can be awfully scary. My Mamma and I were talking about this yesterday and she expressed the same concern so I know it's not just me.

5) I am such a clutter-bug. I really wish I could hire someone to come into my house and just remove all of the "crap" and organize it some. No, I don't want to be a "neat freak". That will never be me but I think it would soothe my soul if my house were in better order and I really believe given a clean slate I could keep it in fairly good shape. Alas I just can't seem to do it myself. I really can't. It's too overwhelming.

6) It's amazing how much calmer i've become over my job in the past two weeks. Ever since they gave us a "know by" date of Dec 1st i've felt better and slept better at night. I am ready to accept whatever happens even if it doesn't go the way I want it to. I've prayed for God's Grace and his strength to help me make the right decisions for me and my family. That is all I can really do.

7) If I could have one wish this second for a specific "thing" (not wealth or health but an object) it would be a shiny 2006 black,white or red Dodge Charger. I don't want a brand spanking new one though I would take a 2007 I guess. Any other color is negotiable also. Oh my god I want one of those things like i've never wanted a car in my life. I used to think people were CRAZY to lust after a car and never really understood it but I want one of those cars and with my job situation being what it is, well it's just not in the cards for me. BUT if I met up with a genie in a bottle ~Poof~ Mamma would be stylin' and profilin' *sigh* It's a fun dream!
