The girl behind the keyboard

  1. I like lists.
  2. A lot.
  3. I make lists for everything.
  4. I also like office supplies.
  5. I am a frequent shopper here.
  6. I have a super hot husband.
  7. I don't come close to being deserving of his love for me.
  8. We have the two cutest kids in the universe.
  9. "E" is 7
  10. "Aud" is 4.
  11. She thinks she's 14 though.
  12. We'd love to have several more little people.
  13. I am a redhead.
  14. Yes, that means that I have a mean temper.
  15. But, by grace, I am trying my darndest to get it in check.
  16. I need lots of grace.
  17. Lots.
  18. We home educate our rascals.
  19. Like I said, LOTS of grace is necessary.
  20. We live on a farm.
  21. A REALLY.REALLY.OLD farm.
  22. There is nothing fancy about our farm except me and my pink polka dot chore boots. :)
  23. I like fancy.
  24. In a weird sort of way because I like simple too.
  25. Is there such a thing as simply fancy?
  26. I think that God likes fancy too.
  27. I know this because he made people with red hair.
  28. And freckles.
  29. Freckles are like glitter for your nose.
  30. And because of the way that the sun on a crystal clear pond makes it all sparkley.
  31. I make stuff.
  32. I sell it on Etsy.
  33. Etsy rocks.
  34. I believe whole-heartedly that creativity is a gift from God.
  35. I LOVE fabric.
  36. I have bolts and bolts and yards and yards surrounding me this very minute.
  37. I'll never have enough time in my life to sew all the fabric I have and continue to purchase.
  38. Please don't tell my husband that.
  39. He thinks that fabric purchases are "business expenses."
  40. I love Jesus.
  41. A lot.
  42. I'm excited to get to know y'all.
  43. Yes, I live in MN and I say y'all.
  44. Yes, I sometimes get teased for it.
  45. As much as I enjoy talking to myself, I'd love to know there's somebody out there listening.
  46. LEAVE COMMENTS from time to time so I can get to know you too.
  47. Pretty Please. :)
  48. I'm mildly OCD.
  49. Because of this, I need to make this list come out at a nice round number.
  50. 50 works. :)

Your list made me laugh. I really didn't get to read it completely, just scan, but the parts I saw made me think we were separated at birth. LOL

And, where in MN do you live that it was raining yesterday, and frequently lately? I wish we'd get some rain! Everything is starting to dry out, and even my concrete driveway is getting "dusty". Besides, a good "rain day" is just what I need to get things cleaned up in the house! lol When it's so nice it's hard to be inside...

I'll be back to read the list carefully soon :) Welcome to blogging!

Hey Courtney...
I'm listening... even on a holiday weekend. LOVED your list! I've enjoyed our recent chats.

Off to declutter my youngest's bedroom... I need to start somewhere. Violins are practiced and two loaves of gluten free banana bread made today.

I will try to post a picture of my kids sometime soon. Is it windy in S. MN today?... sure is here.
