25 things

I love the prose questionnaire or the things-you-don’t-know-about-me lists.  So, I have decided to share one with you about me.  Here goes:

1. If I could get away with being a vegetarian, I would.  I love vegetables so much.  But the rest of my family does not, thus…
2. I have two cell phones.  They each serve a super important purpose, and cannot be combined into one.
3. My Audi wagon is my perfect car: fast, spacious, low to the ground, and the opposite of fussy.
4. Wall calendars, lists, daily schedules are all a part of my world.  I have to write it down and see “the big picture” as well as the day’s tasks.
5. My drink of choice these days is a vodka martini.  One isn’t enough and two are too many.
6. I rarely order what I really want off a menu.  Instead, I will choose what I think is healthiest.  I rarely regret the nights I splurge.
7. I am still addicted to hi-ball energy drinks.
8. I am counting the days until our annual trip to Lake Tahoe.
9. Dancing with my kids is one of my favorite things to do.
10. I am so lucky to live in California again.
11. My husband’s sarcasm is often only tolerated by me.  His personality is an acquired taste.  Most of the time, I find it super funny.  Sometimes, not so much!
12. I love Birkenstock sandals. They are so ugly but so awesome.
13. My hair looks best 3 days dirty.
14. Summertime is so marvelous, but I dread how quickly it goes by.
15. I still talk with our family nanny in Utah at least once a week if not more.
16. How good are ribs?
17. And tacos?
18. Jo Malone’s English Pear & Freesia is my summer scent.
19. My toenails are sunflower yellow right now and I have never loved a color so much as this.
20. Lately, my car has been my office.  If it weren’t for podcasts, I would be miserable.
21. I do my own eyebrows and I do not wax any of me.
22. I think I bathe my children too little.  They smell fine.  But I have used the pool as an excuse for a few weeks now.  Yikes!
23. I hate the flavors of Indian food.  Always have, and likely will never change.
24. I have the best Mother in Law.  She is like a best friend that I just happen to be related to.  I would have married G just for her.
25. I have terrible luck with babysitters.  Ask me about it sometime.
