7 Things

It's been a long time since I've been tagged to do a meme. This one is by Ryan, so let's give it a shot...

The rules are--

1. Link to your original tagger(s) and list these rules in your post.

2. Share seven facts about yourself in the post.

3. Tag seven people at the end of your post by leaving their names and the links to their blogs.

4. Let them know they’ve been tagged.

1)  I regularly freak out when I'm too busy to keep the house as clean as I would like.  It happens about once every week and a half to two weeks.  That's when Hubby steps in, takes care of the baby for a couple of hours, and lets me do my whirlwind cleaning frenzy.  Imagine the Tasmanian Devil, but with a vacuum cleaner.

2)  I secretly love casseroles.  Okay, maybe it's not so much of a secret.  If there's a potluck, you can bet I'm making some kind of casserole.

3)  I have a low tolerance for television. I can only usually watch one show, maybe two tops, before I start to get TV'd out.

4)  I don't aspire to be rich, famous, or successful in my career. My goal in life is to raise Baby Champuru to be an asset to society, to love the Lord, to be a blessing to others, and to be happy with herself.  I am hoping that raising baby can be my full-time "job," at least until she starts school.

5)  When I was a child, I believed that I would never have a baby of my own. Thank God I was wrong.

6)  When I met Hubby, I just turned 18 and he was 25 (turning 26 in a month).  He thought I was older and I thought he was younger.  We wondered if 8 years was too much of a gap to make a successful relationship. 17 years later, the age difference is completely inconsequential now.

7)  In high school, I was a rocker geek. A typical outfit: rocker t-shirt, jeans jacket with a Stryper patch on the back, plaid shorts, converse hightops, and Bon Jovi hair.  I had my own "style" and took pride in refusing to follow trends.

If you're reading this, consider yourself tagged. ;)
