1. I am nervous because my missionary didn't email this week. I know I should just relax but... it's harder than it sounds.
2. I am also nervous about having a bored & hyper eight year old home for the summer.
3. I have plans, mostly in my mind I need to make a list-- many, many lists.
4. I over schedule everything. I love to have a plan & a list.
5. Schedules & calendars make me happy.
6. I don't always follow them, but they make me happy none the less.
7. I wanted to be a doctor when I was in elementary school.
8. Back then I thought I could do anything.
9. Several years ago like 12 ... I went to a doctor who had gone to college the same time as me. I could have been a doctor by then...? what??
10. It frustrated me to no end.
11. I was pretty shaken up thinking I was waisting my life raising a family.
12. All better.
13. I stunk at school so it's not like there was any chance- seriously- what in the world?
14. I change my sheets every week.
15. Sometimes more than once a week. I just really like crisp, clean sheets.
16. I love chocolate fudge pop tarts & ate four of them on one day this past week... whoops.....
17. I typically avoid pop tarts for obvious reasons.
18. and ding dongs, but I think I've mentioned that before.
19. My husband owned a pizza restaurant just after college for a couple of months.
20. It bombed - but I can make a killer pizza now.
21. My favorite is spinach & fresh tomato. I posted the recipe a long time ago... here it is.
22. I saw Lionel Richie in concert when I was 17.
23. Tina Turner was opening for him.
24. The guy I went with bragged about how great the tickets were for weeks.
25. We sat so far away that they looked like tiny little ants. We were literally the highest & farthest seat away in the whole tacoma dome. I felt so bad for him, he must have been so embarrassed. We broke up right after that.
26. It's year book time & I am really looking forward to posting my kids funniest signings.
27. I found out a couple of years ago (after it happened) that in 8th grade Brian signed all of his friend's yearbooks- "Don't do drugs- trust me, love Brian"
28. He thought that was really funny??? what in the world???!!!-I swear that kid-aaarrgh!
29. So that means all those kids parents read that- geez louiz-
30. my sweet hearts birthday is this month!! Happy birthday brett- love you!
i love your monthly list...
ReplyDeletei once had a boyfriend who got tickets to genesis and they were awful - the tickets, not the band - and he was so embarrassed. but we didn't break up! :)
good job on creating a smaller butt!
I always love reading your monthly lists!! They are so great!
ReplyDeleteBy the way--ding dongs are so great!! Especially when you freeze them!!
Interesting story on the pizza store! I never knew that--I love hearing funny things like that!
I loved hearing about the pizza store too...how great to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteI would hate to know some of the stuff Micah wrote in people's yearbooks...scarrry.
I can't remember any really bad seats at concert....but Troy and I are now humiliated to admit we went to a Euasure concert...it was the 80's...give me a break
Great Post!
Great list, Patsy. I got a kick out of Brian's yearbook signings! And the whole thing about wanting to be a doctor. I hope you hear from your missionary soon!
ReplyDeleteI love your monthly lists. It is fun to learn all of these fun things about you!
ReplyDeleteIt was scary to read some of Emily's things in her yearbook!
I will have to try the pizza!
I don't know if it's just really late but...number 25 is making me cry from laughter...the ants...oh dear...
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I will try the pizza, I loved Lionel Richie and I don't fault Karrie for going to Erasure;)
Oh Patsy, you amuse me so.
