I've been tagged!

I love being tagged! Holly and Becky both tagged me so I feel extra special. :)

Here's how it works. I am supposed to tell 6 random facts about myself. Random is good for me! Then I am supposed to "tag" 6 other people to do the same on their blog.

1. I am so blessed but I am having a small pity party for myself at the moment. I have always wanted to be "somebody" and even though I know raising my kids is THE most important thing I can be doing right now I have fleeting thoughts of what I could have become. (lawyer, senator, businesswoman,actress,news anchor)I have a mental block that now that I am past 30, it's not going to happen. Oh, well. Along that pity party line, I thought I would be surrounded by more friends here.I have a lot of friends and I love Idaho Falls and the people here but something holds me back from totally being involved with everything. I despise being overweight(only within the last 5 years) but haven't done anything about it. I tend to hold myself back. I know you have to give to get, but I feel overwhelmed easily lately. I thought Mark and I would do a lot more entertaining etc. but he just isn't interested and since he isn't involved with the church it's hard to have many couple friends. I am tired of him being a hermit. Maybe I shouldn't have done this tag when I was grumpy. :)

2. On a lighter note, I have an addictive personality! When I get into something, I go all the way. I have to watch myself. For awhile it will be scrapbooking,then couponing,for awhile I loved QVC, I love politics and am super patriotic, right now it's flylady, and who knows what it will be next. I'm getting better at resisting the urge to plunge headlong into something. Which leads me to....

3. I am an entrepenuer at heart and I am always looking for a business! I have sold stamps/scrapbooking, candles at home parties and in a booth at a store, I have sold stuff on ebay for several years, and I am always looking for a way to supplement my income. My dream would be to work from home doing something online. (I am working on it) I currently have something in the works and I am excited to share it when the time is right!!! :)

4. I am a MAJOR scatterbrain. I am the least born-organized person that I know, next to my Dad! I am a major right brainer. (must be because I am a lefty) My mom, who is the most tactful woman I know, actually was concerned that when Brynn was born I might accidentally leave her somewhere.(never did, of course) Things that come naturally to Mark are completely foreign to me. That being said, I am fighting my absent mindedness every day and have been for the last several years because I desperately want a clean house. I am determined to train myself to be organized and efficient. Wish me luck! :) Poor Ryan takes after me. He lost his glasses the first week he had them and this morning I went to get Zachy's clothes out of his room and found a gallon of milk on the floor. He was going to pour himself some apparently, but went to get something from his room and set the milk down?!?!?! Thankfully, I discovered it right when he went to school.

5. I love to read and learn and have subscriptions to about 10 magazines. (doesn't help my organization problem ;) I want to know everything about everything, math excluded! Of course, I always get my subscriptions for the lowest possible price! I know just enough about everything to be dangerous!

6. I worry a lot about the plight of the world, especially for children. I am passionately pro-life, and especially when I have a new baby I worry for the welfare of children in the world and I pray a lot that a child who is hurting can have momentary peace or get in a better situation.

Now if that wasn't a bowl of cherries! Sorry to be Debbie Downer! I might do a new post tomorrow because I am usually in a positive mood! :)

Edit- I can't decide whether to keep this post. Usually, I am a happy, enthusiastic person. (don't call me if you don't have an hour ;) Is it better to be honest or sunny on my blog? I can't decide. :)

Watch out for me to tag YOU!
