Another tag..

It's true I have been tagged again by Aunt Sandi. So I have to tell you 7 things about you you didn't know. I am pretty open about my life and things about me, but I am going to do my best to think of things you wouldn't know. So here it goes:


1. While laundry is my favorite chore around the house I am not so great at it. Well, okay so I am good at washing, drying, and folding them up, but not so great with bleach and ironing. I just started using bleach about 8 months ago. Before then I never used it, therefore we probably always had dingy whites. I know it's horrible but hey I've got the hang of it now. Oh and ironing, well lets just say it doesn't happen. EVER. If anyone irons in the house it is my husband. Hey that's what my dryer and dryer sheets are for. I just toss them in there for a few minutes and Viola, most of the wrinkles are gone.







2. I used to be a good artist(at pencil drawings) when I was in school. I was even accepted to a art school in high school, but I backed out because I didn't think I was good enough to make a career out of it. My mom still has some of my drawings at her house.





3.I can't remember a time in my life that I didn't believe in God. As far back as I can remember I have always believed in him and heaven. I was saved at the age of 12 but I was a believer long before that. I think it's weird when people don't believe in God.





4. I was always in the advanced classes in school, but I never seemed to do as good as my friends on tests. I hate taking test. I think I have test anxiety.





5. I like to eat blueberry waffles with peanut butter and syrup on top. It is so good, but a lot of people think I am weird for liking it. You should try it. Mmmmmm.





6. I don't watch the news. Nope not my thing. It is entirely too depressing for me. I am always the last to know about world events for this reason.





7. Finally...hmmmm. Okay so last but not least I will tell you how my Tinkerbell obsession came about: I always thought she was cute but when my family when to Disney one year. All my aunts and uncles along with my mom took my cousins and me to a place where you dress up as Disney characters. I of course was Tinkerbell. So in high school I had that nickname for a while so it made me start collecting some things with her on it. So now I am really into the Tinkerbell thing. No I am not hugely obsessed with her but I do like the stuff. I think I sometimes try to push her on Maddy so I have an excuse to buy the stuff. Crazy I know.





So there you have it 7 things about me you probably didn't know. So I know I am supposed to tag 7 people but with my lack of blogging buddies I am only able to come up with a few so here goes:





1. Sissy- cause you always have the funniest things to tell about yourself.





2. Abbie- my newest friend on here I wanted to tag you to learn more about you, but I see someone beat me to it.

And well that's about it, if anyone else reads my blog then you can consider yourself tagged also. Happy blogging.

I'm so glad to make you smile!!!

So Aunt Sandi has awarded me with this award. Saying that I, Jodie Adams, make her smile!! How sweet of her to award me with such a high honor. Truth is she makes me smile with her comments and sweetness. Yes I said sweetness, she's one the kindest people I've never met. Sure I wish we could meet, but it's kinda hard when you live on the other side of the world. She wrote the nicest things about me on her post. She laughed about me shaving my ratty old cat, but truth be told I've been eyeing her all night and she's about to get the cutters, soon. Heck she may be half bald by the time I get done with this post. I took a before picture already, now onto the after pic.... Oh and thank you Aunt Sandi, you are a rare jewel, we will meet one day, I hope!!! I would pass this award on to my two trustee blog buddies, you know who you are, but they've both already received it. So If you are able to double award someone, then I want to award my mother in law, Sissy, and of course Aunt Sandi.

I award Sissy, because no matter what her stories make me laugh. She can be talking about something as simple as how she hates to cook(even thought she's one of the best cooks I know) or about how she scares easily by a spider, she never ceases to amuse me. She's probably one of the funniest people I know, hmmm maybe I should be awarding her with a you make me laugh award. Silly me.

And Aunt Sandi, well she's an old soul. She enjoys the simple things in life. She has stories that make perfect sense to me. Oh and she ALWAYS comments my posts. You gotta love that. It's like when you had AOL and it said "You've got mail!" You just want to jump up and down with joy. Thank you both for the happiness you bring to my life.

For Aunt Sandi, introducing Leia...

So call her a chipmunk, a squirrel, or mickey mongoose(as the little girl across the street does) whatever she is she's entertaining. That's our Leia!!

Terrible Twos!

Okay Sissy I am copying your blog so here it goes:

1. Two names you go by: Jodie and Jo

2. Two things you are wearing right now: My wedding ring (which I love because it's not just your ordinary wedding set, it has sapphires in it too.) And a necklace my mom gave me that has a hear with a baby in it. She gave it to me after I gave birth to my son. The box said "You grew in my heart!" I love it so much. These are two things I almost never take off.

3. Two things you want in a relationship: First and foremost I want Faithfulness and then of course Love. I believe that when you are married you need to only have intimacy with one person. You have to be able to trust that you are their one and only. You should only share the intimate part of yourself with your other half. I believe that makes you closer and makes things more special. And Love, well how can you be in a relationship their either doesn't already have or is working toward love? You need to genuinely care about someone for a relationship to work. I could go on about this but hey that's another blog.

4. Two of your favorite things to do: Well that's easy! Scrapbook, of course, it is the best stress reliever for me. Hang out with family and friends.

5. Two things you want very badly at the moment: To be pregnant with a healthy baby and to build my savings account back up.

6. Two pets you had/have: Anakin (my adorable yorkie) and Chloe (my beautiful long haired white cat).

7. Two people who will fill this out first: Well the only two people that read my blog and have a blog are Sissy(who I got this from) and Aunt Sandi. So maybe Aunt Sandi will do one too.

8. Two things you did last night: I did a few scrapbook pages and watched The Little Rascals with my family.

9. Two people that live in your house: Nick (my husband) and Maddy (my step-daughter).

10. Two people you talked to last: My husband and my neighbor, Tangela!

11. Two things you are doing tomorrow: Making brownies and going to a scrapbook thing. It will be my first one to scrapbook with other people. I am kind of excited we will see how it goes. I will let you know!!

12. Two longest car rides: From Pennsylvania to Florida. That was went we left my dad. We left on April 5th and got there on April 14th (the day before my 9th birthday). Then from Florida to Texas. We went to visit my in laws when they moved out there. We also went to Six Flags out there. The ride was about 12 hours.

13. Name 2 of your favorite holidays: Thanksgiving (for the food and gathering of people) and Christmas (for the decorations and everyone seems happier). Wasn't that almost a given?

14. Two favorite beverages: It's funny because I always say lemonade, but I hardly ever drink it. But I do love it when it is just the right blend of sweet and sour. My second would be French Vanilla hot chocolate. I love that stuff. I can't get enough of it!!

Okay so I did it. I hope it doesn't bore you too much. I don't have that interesting of a life it seems. But I enjoy it nonetheless. Happy blogging!!
