I'm it - twice more!

I've been Tagged by Erin (Life in the Nuthouse - again posting from work and can't add links). 

 

The rules:
A. The rules of the game must be posted at the beginning of your post.
B. Each player lists 6 facts/habits about themselves.
C. At the end of the post, the player then tags 6 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog.

 

Here's more random stuff about me.

1.                I am terribly addicted to sugar.  I can avoid burgers, fries, chips, and even soda but I am such a sweet tooth.  I always crack up when someone cannot finish their dessert because its "too sweet".  I've never met something that is too sweet.  But, I do not like chocolate.

2.                I consider my girls to be the greatest accomplishment in my life.  They are so smart, sweet, and amazing.  Some days I just feel blessed to be their mommy.

3.                I've struggled with my weight my entire life, and have to be so vigilant to keep the weight off (being a sweet-tooth doesn't make this very easy).  I also have a voracious appetite, and always feel hungry.  If I could have one wish in life, it would be that I could eat whatever I want and still be skinny (petty, I know)

4.                I love nature and the out-of-doors.  I'd live outside if it were practical.  And yes, some probably consider me a tree-hugger, liberal environmentalist, etc.  But I'm no so fanatical about it either.  I do drive an SUV after all.  I would love though to live in a small, rural town - perhaps in the mountains - where I could hike and run on trails, and ski to my heart's content.

5.                I love to be by myself.  While I love my family and friends, there are some times that I just long to be alone.  That is probably the biggest challenge of motherhood; I always have someone at my heels.

6.                I don't consider myself to be very talented at anything.  I have several interests and activities that I participate in, but nothing where I truly excel.  I often joke that my talent is in making others look better.  I actually have a fairly healthy self esteem though.  I just know who I am (and what I'm not).

 

 

I also am answering a tag from Tiburon (Shark Bait).

Whose temper is worse? Mine for sure.  I tend to blow up easily and then I'm over it.  He rarely get mad (just quiet and pouty)
Who does the laundry? Ummm - I guess both of us.  We're so behind right now though, that I'm tempted to say that neither of us does.
