Six Facts About Me That you May (or maynot) Want to Know....

The Rules: Player lists 6 facts/habits about themselves. At the end of the post, player then tags 6 people and posts their names. Then player goes to their blog and posts a comment telling them that they have been tagged and asking them to read player's blog for rules.
The Facts:
1. I have been married almost four years to my wonderful husband Joel. Ever since we were married we have had many trials to overcome, but the biggest is trying to cope with fertility issues. We have battled time and time again with the steps we would like to take to achieve our dream of having a child, but so far we have not had success. I have good days and bad ones...but for the most part I try to cope with the extreme sadness this trial has caused in my life. One day soon, we hope to be able to have a baby of our own, whose name we can pick, whose clothes we can buy, and whose nursery we can prepare.
2. I hate spiders...bugs...anything that may have the appearance of a creepy, crawly thing....yuck!
3. I am an aspiring professional photographer...I will hopefully "launch" a new business in January and have a rocken' new name and website!

4. I have a hard time looking at myself in the mirror. Lately I have had a very low self-esteem and can only focus on the negative things...mainly my looks....

5. I carry a camera practically every where we go....I am sure our friends here in Oregon can tell you all about it. They seem to like it because they get a lot of priceless pictures of their children being super cute and whatnot...(Am I right friends???)

6. I love being able to sleep in and use my mad skills as a wife to keep my house in order and to try to keep it smelling good 24/7....I have to have a smell good house and car and work area....I have a gazillion Gold Canyon Candles, and buy a new one at least three times a year.

I am not a big fan of "fwd" messages and what not, so I am not going to send this to anyone...but I was in a mood where I felt I should post because I love Shannon and wouldn't want to make her butt-hurt because I didn't participate....

Well Dot, I would say those aren't very unknown facts about you. They basically make up the whole who you are thing.

OK, so...Me.

1. At the age of 14 I spent three months living on the top of a Vons store in Woodland Hills, CA

2. My very first job as as a security guard for a huanted retirement home for Russian Jews. The place had ghosts and a stutue that could watch you for almost 270 degrees.

3. I started dating my wife when she was 15. I was, ah-hum, 21.

4. I organized and managed a security and escort team for the Osmonds Christmas Special. Met lots of intersting and not so interesting folks.

5. I have laid on the Presidents bed in Air Force One. Sat in the cockpit of the Stealth Fighter before it was acknowldeged by the Air Force and climbed to the very top of a C-5 galexy's tale hatch.

6. I hit a pig with police truck and gutted the creature with the front cargo hook slicker than if I had done it with a knife. We had roast pig the next day at the kennels.

So, there. Some odd facts you may remember or mey not have.

Night.
