11 things about us you might not know, and might not want to know, so sorry about this.

1. I have 3 tattoos and am contemplating a 4th for my 20th wedding anniversary, something that looks like this, in white.
2. My 20th wedding anniversary is next month, April 25th.
3. I am now the shortest person in my household and wear the smallest size shoe – 7.
4. I have an unhealthy relationship with sugar, coffee & cereal.
5. Pets & humans together, we live with 11 heart beats, 34 legs, 34 potentially dirt tracks in a 3 bedroom, single family home.
6. I love living in the South, but sometimes desperately miss the conveniences of living in Southern California… the streets are for the most part on a grid, sign posts at every intersection, food choices, stuff like that.
7. I spent my childhood summers tent camping and refuse to partake now that I’m an adult.
8. A new font download will brighten my day.
9. I wore glasses & contacts until I was 30ish, got Lasik (it was so new at the time each eye was $2,250! So worth every single penny!), and now old enough to wear readers… now it’s much more reasonable price-wise, but still I would need to “come-in” to a lot of money to consider a touch-up for my old lady eyes.
10. I really, really love TV and Movies – I’m an entertainment junkie.
11. My sister and I were only allowed to watch PBS growing up – Sesame Street, Mr. Rogers, etc., you now understand my love of entertainment.
