Lazy Saturday

Goodness, what a day! I had this huge list of things that I wanted to accomplish, and I only finished three of them. Sheesh. Our morning started great, we ate a yummy breakfast and headed out to get our groceries for the week. We came in under budget, so we stopped for some fast food on the way home. Bad idea. I spent the next several hours curled up on the couch, sick as a dog. But eventually I was able to drag myself into the kitchen to get some dinner going. Chicken Alfredo, yummo! After getting the little one to bed, I finally spent some time cleaning up my Etsy shop and posting a couple more items. In the past I was having the hardest time pricing items and figuring out shipping. But I finally took the time today to write a master list for pricing, and I created a few shipping profiles. It's so much easier to list new items now. Why didn't I think of that sooner? *Face Palm*

Oh, have I mentioned lately? Jordyn is growing up way too fast! I was picking out her clothes for church tomorrow, and I realized that none of her dress shoes fit! Guess it's time to go shopping again. I swear, she only wears her clothes 4 or 5 times before she out grows them. It's killing me. Now I know why my parents always threatened to tie a brick to my head to keep me from growing.

On a completely different note, I was nominated for another Liebster Award! This time from Melissa at Apartment One. You're such a sweetheart Melissa! Thank you! I'm starting to run out of ideas for my list of random facts though. So forgive me for any repeats. =] Seriously, I'm so flattered by all these nominations. You guys are the best!

RULES:
- Link back to the person who nominated you
- Write 11 random things about yourself
- Answer the 11 questions from the person who nominated you

11 RANDOM FACTS:

1. I'm a very emotional person. I cry at everything. It's pathetic.
2. I spent half of my childhood playing in the woods behind our house, pretending I was Pocahontas. I spent the other half of my childhood in the garage with my Dad, getting grease under my nails.
3. I am seriously addicted to Mt. Dew. It's ridiculous.
4. I envy women with pretty fingernails. I've tried every strengthener on the market, and I take extra vitamins for my hair and nails.. but no luck. I'm cursed with these thin little nails.
5. I teach Sunday School to a group of 16 and 17 year olds, and I love it.
6. I do not like ground meat. The texture grosses me out.
7. I also do not like seafood. Oh except crab puffs at Chinese restaurants, and the fish and chips you order at restaurants. Those are good.
8. I have never had a drop of alcohol in my entire life. Unless you count that time I wasn't paying attention and grabbed my nail polish remover, thinking it was my water bottle. I still gag at that memory.
9. I am a horrible procrastinator, which explains why I'm always at the bottom of the link up list.
10. I want to dress nice and feminine every day, but I never know if I'm doing it right, so I end up in jeans and a t shirt.
11. I have gallstones, so if I eat anything that's too high in fat, I will spend a few hours curled up on my bed in terrible pain.
