Deb, over at stupidmommy, tagged me for my first meme. I really don’t know what that word means, or why this is called a “meme”. Anways, here we go.
1.) I can’t believe I’ve never…
Well, for starters, I can believe I have never done a lot of things. I am kinda a fraidy cat.
2.) Every time I think about…I still cringe.
Let’s see, sometimes when I think about some of the guys I dated I cringe. Actually I laugh more than I cringe, but some do make me cringe. God must really love me to bless me with such a wonderful husband after some of the losers I chose.
3.) I wish I’d…when I had the chance.
This one is easy – finished college. I know I can go back now and I plan to, it is just a little more difficult. I am older with a family and all that goes with that. I wish I had known what I wanted to do or that it didn’t really matter that I didn’t know as long as I finished.
4.) I have never felt so out of place as when I’m… bloggin and putting it out there.
5.) …is my guiltiest pleasure. I will admit, but only if no one judges…The Hills on MTV.
6.) I hope…knows how grateful I am for…
I hope my husband knows how grateful I am for his support. He works a lot and is gone quite a bit, but in return he really helps when he is here and he tries to give me a break whenever I need it. If I want to go to Austin and celebrate a friend’s marriage he is more than happy to keep the kids. On the same note, if I want to go to Austin and celebrate a friend’s divorce he is more than happy to stay with our girls. This may not seem big to some but believe it or not I have friends whose husbands would not.
7.) In my darkest hours, I secretly blame… fo my dysfunction.
I blame myself most of the time. Seriously, I am probably too hard on myself but I feel that only I am responsible for me.
8.) …changed my life forever.
That is easy. My children. My girls make me feel every emotion ten times over. I have never felt such love, fear, frustration, happiness, pride and even anger as I feel about those two. They make me laugh and cry and I wouldn’t trade anything in this world to not be their mother. My heart walks around this earth out of my body in the form of two precious little girls.
Okay, that’s it. Lets see I don’t know who to tag. How about aaryn, euphrosyne, and my sister. Please don’t link back to me if you do the meme–for the time-being I’m trying to keep this under the family radar.

Interesting list.
I’d agree: You are way too hard on yourself.
I’ll do the meme as soon as I can and I’ll email you to let you know it’s up.
Love & Friendship,

Re #5–i NEVER judge anyone regarding trash TV (oh wait, i guess labeling it trash TV IS a judgement–sorry!)

I’m gonna do it, but later. I have to think of something I can’t believe I haven’t done.
