I know, I know, life isn’t all about me, although at times I like to think it is.
When I first started this blog, I wrote a post titled, “100 things you didn’t know about me.”
It is still one of my most favorite posts. I love it because it took a lot of effort to come up with 100 things. But now, almost 3 years later I am so grateful that I took the time to sit down and do it. It took me a few days. I remember when I would think of something and run to the computer to jot it down.
Now when I read back, I realize how some of those 100 things have remained the same and many have changed.
Like #77. I don’t like to run. It just hurts all around.
Well, now 3 years later I could change #77 to read: I love to run, and wish that the weather would permit me to run everyday.
or #81. I enjoy a nice, cold, Caffeine Free Diet Dr. Pepper everyday. (sometimes 2)
this should now read: #81. I enjoy a nice, cold, Coke zero everyday. (sometimes 3)
I guess what I am saying is I am grateful that things don’t remain the same. How boring would it be if we never evolved, tried something new.
In honor of my favorite post, I am going to work on a new list. I hope to share 5-10 new things about me each month. I think it is important for our children to know the little things about us. I also enjoy looking back and remembering some of the important parts about me that I may have forgotten.
For example, I recently realized that when I am cooking dinner; I stand like a flamingo.
Oh yes, I stand with one leg on the ground and the other foot touching my knee. Now that is just weird.
Have you ever thought of writing down 100 things about you?

I was actually just thinking about my 100 things the other day. that is so funny. I was going repost my list and change the ones that have now changed. I might still have to do it.
great idea-I've never done a 100 things, sounds like fun-I'll have to start compiling my list :)
That is so funny because I have done that since I was a child. I am actually standing at my kitchen counter now doing that while I am typing and baking brownies!
Hahaha, um, I actually stand like that too. I used to do it more - I must've somewhat fallen out of the habit. We've finally scheduled the USMLE for April 4th - wish us luck! :-)
I have forgotten all about my list. I need to read it again. Thanks for reminding me.
Ummmm...lookin' hot girl!
You are delightful, Andrea - best flamingo stance ever. And you give me hope: maybe in 3 years I will love running..... :)
