I got the number 5 so here goes: (most close to me probably knows them all anyway): 1. My hair is naturally curly. NO, I didnt do this on purpose. I straightened it for most of my life because my mom straightened it when I was young and lately Ive learned to love myself the way I am and I embrace it. I even enjoy it some days. 2. My family means everything to me. I still talk to my mom and my kids (even the one thats moved out) pretty much EVERY DAY. I miss my grandma like crazy and still cry just about every day. I dare you to say something about it. On second thought, dont. Refer to #3. 3. I have a temper. No small temper. Especially where my kids are concerned or people/things/causes that are near and dear to me. Mess with my children and Im like a mother pig: I WILL eat you and ask questions later. I dont apologize for that-I am a protector. 4. I lost weight and jumped on the fitness train because I have two herniated discs in my neck and spent over a year unable to life anything over 5 pounds, in constant pain and taking pain pills that made me feel like an idiot and didnt mask the pain. My Dr. said hes only seen discs like that from football injuries and car wrecks. I had neither. I cant think of anything that I did except fall out of our porch swing. My theory is that I was so not-in-shape that that little thing actually hurt me. I can still make it twinge, but every day it gets better. I dont EVER intend to feel terrible like that again. Therefore, I will be proactive and get healthy, build muscle and maintain it. I dont want to be skinny; I want to be healthy and fit. And I intend to beat my husband in a 5K next summer. 5. I am complicated. I am a republican, born again Christian with mostly conservative beliefs. However, I am a feminist at heart and do NOT ascribe to traditional conservative gender roles. I expect all my children to run the washer, mow the lawn, study to learn, fix their own problems & broken appliances, know how to cook, cry & express emotion with pride and wear any color that they choose and generally, just be a great people with great hearts.
