Today I'm 28

Good morning friends.  I've been laid out with the flu so not much crafting going on in my world, but today is my 28th birthday so I thought I would share some things about me, 28 things of course!

This might be harder than I thought...

1. I've collected rubber stamps since I was a kid.  Something Galoshes started for me and I love.
2. I'm a minimalist
3. I'm allergic to raspberries, but nothing else, very odd.
4. I got my first motorcycle when I was 8 years old
5. I learned to drive a vehicle (manual truck) at age 6 on our 40 acre farmette
6. I've had about every pet you can imagine including a duckling for a while
7. When I ran into my 1st grade art teacher (who I did not remember) at 24 she recognized me and remembered that I was really good at art.  That still baffles me.
8. I always said I was going to have two boys and a girl, in that order, and I did. I'm pretty sure I even put it in my wedding program.
9. My first date with my husband was on my 18th birthday, which means this makes 10 years for us!
10. I love my family life, but had I not met my husband I would probably be in London right now, I'm pretty sure I was supposed to be born there.
11. In high school everyone said I looked like Reece Witherspoon, a drunk guy even once asked for my autograph. 
12. I love going to the movie theater, even if it is a rip off.
13. I love roller coasters! The bigger and scarier the better
14. I'm constantly rearranging.... EVERYTHING
15. I was graduating college magma cum laud, until they told me that, then I realized I could do less and still graduate.  I was barely doing anything as it was.  I ended up graduating with honors on the deans list.
16. I changed my name when I was 16, legally.  My birth name was Heather, I hated it.  Not so much the name, but that there were 5 other Heathers everywhere I went.  
17. I joined the army at 17, you can read all about it at Dear MaryJanes
18. I'm a pretty quiet person, until I feel strongly about something
19. I would love to be a real photographer someday
20. I did something different every year of school, volleyball, cheer leading, managing, tutoring, you name it I did it, once. 
21. I don't have favorites, no favorite movie, food, color... there are just to many great things out there to have favorites.  Okay, so coffee ice cream is the exception :)
22. I get really upset by people who do not have good manners.  There are lots of good etiquette books out there, if your clueless READ THEM! 
23. I love popcorn
24. My favorite wine is Mascato d'asti...... okay so I have SOME favorites
25. I have a strong feeling I will die a very violent death.... no idea why, just always have
26. I told Galoshes I was pregnant before I told my husband (he was at work with no way to reach him)
27. My lucky number is 4
28. I LOVE quotes.  Sucker for typography

whew!  Thanks for stopping by on my birthday!  I'll be crafting again soon, when I'm 100% well, I think the kids are starting to get it today :(
