A-Z and Everything In Between

So before I start the ABC's of me. I just wanted to say holy cow I have 40 followers! I know that is a drop in the bucket to many bloggers, I have been blogging(not consistently) for 3 years. I think the first 2 years I had 2 followers. haha So to have 40 seems crazy to me. So if you are new here, and we haven't talked, leave me a comment, I would love to get to know you. Anyway back to the post.

Nicole tagged me in the ABCs of me. I love reading these, so hopefully since I have so many new followers who don't really know me, you will too!

A. Attached or Single? Attached married for 6 years June 30th
B. Best Friend? My husband Chris and my mom. I could not handle life without them.
C. Cake or Pie? Well since I am trying not to eat carbs, neither. haha yeah right. I love either as long as they are homemade, I can easily turn down bought baked goods.
D. Day of Choice? Friday. I get off work at 11, so I get almost the whole day with just Hayes. Starting next week I am just going to work Tuesday-Thursday. Woohoo So who knows, maybe Monday will become my new favorite day.
E. Essential Item? Umm.. My truck. That is something that definitely gets used everyday. I am pretty easy though, I can live without technology, make-up. Oh I know food! That is definitely an essential item. haha
F. Favorite Color? Sparkly red, or white, preferably the two together.
G. Gummy bears or worms? Both as long as they are kind of stale so they are tough to chew. haha I couldn't tell you the last time I had either though, it has been years!
H. Hometown? Whatcom County, Washington.
I. Favorite Indulgence? French fries, especially if it is at a sit down restaurant. Which is another thing I haven't had in years. Hopefully as the kids get older, we will be able to get out more!
J. January or July? July, we finally get some nice weather around here. Also the 4th of July is one of my favorite holidays. I love when family can just get together and enjoy themselves, without having to buy anyone presents.
K. Kids? We have Hayes who is 1 1/2. Then Chris has 2 kids, Ariana 12 and Shawn 8
L. Life isn't complete without? My coffee. Haha just kidding. Without getting to enjoy the great outdoors.
M. Marriage Date 6/30/2007
N. Number of Brothers and Sisters? 1 brother
O. Oranges or Apples? Oranges especially satsumas. Apples give me heart burn for some reason. I do love homemade apple pie though.
P. Phobias? People dying, Can not even think about it.
Q. Quotes? Sure... I can never think of one on the spot!
R. Reasons to Smile? 3 day work weeks, spending more time with my baby while he is still little. All my new blog followers!
S. Season of Choice? I love them all, as soon as I get tired of one, a new one comes around.
T. Tag 5 people: Crystal Kristine Angie Nicole Paige If you don't already know these girls, go say hi, they are awesome!
U. Unknown Fact about Me: This question is always so hard for me. I am an open book. I pay attention to everything. I know what kind of car everyone drives. I know where everyone lives. I know where every street is in the whole county. I know the words to every song I have ever heard. My brain is full of "useless" information. I love being a know it all. Everyone come to me when they have a question about anything or anyone in Whatcom County. I am not a gossip though. I keep all of that to myself.
V. Vegetable? No thanks. haha Broccoli and Cauliflower with cheese? And I wonder why I can't lose weight. opps
W. Worst Habit? Procrastination. Ugg I hate it especially when it comes to paying bills. For some reason I like to see my money sitting in my account for as long as possible! haha
X. X-Ray or Ultrasound? Ultrasound please. The only time I have ever had them was when I was pregnant, so definitely more excited than getting my teeth x-rayed or something.
Y. Your favorite food? Homemade bread and butter! mmmm
Z. Zodiac Sign? Gemini

So I wrote this post and figured I would add some pictures, but I suck and have none. So sorry for a long post about me with no pictures!

I love reading these, too! Great way to learn more about blog friends :) We're a lot like - I especially agree with store-bought baked goods - they aren't worth the cals! But homemade is sooo hard to turn down!! lol I also love french fries...mmmm...
As for your phobia... I used to have the same one. I spent way too much time worrying about my grandma when I was a kid, and fearing the day she passed away. As it turns out, she out-lived some other relatives who passed away far too young, and after the deaths my family has been through over the past few years, I no longer have this phobia. Of course, I still dread losing loved ones, but I know now that life goes on and we survive somehow.
Anyways - great answers, Brittin :) And congrats on 40 followers!!!

I always love learning more about people through stuff like this! I'll definitely play along and have mine up tomorrow :) I have been blogging for over 3 years and it's crazy to me to have over 100 followers!

Nicole said...

Wow, you're working 3 days per week. How sweet is that!!! And I know a lot of useless information as well. Plus who doesn't like to see money in their account!

I love satsumas! Nick never likes to buy them though, because he's a "regular" orange kind of guy.

I also love broccoli with cheese. So yummy!

And I'm also a terrible procrastinator. It's terrible when you want to be crafty, but just want to curl up on the couch at the same time.
