Tag--I'm it. Sevens.

My cute SIL tagged me with this questionaire. I thought I should be a good sport and do it, but my answers are definately not smart or interesting. Hers are.

Here I go:

7 THINGS I DO WELL:

Waste time on computer

Eat (not that I make good choices, I can just put away a lot of food.)

Bake--NOT cook, but I can make a mean batch of brownies. Okay maybe I should just say MAKE BROWNIES--I can't think of anything else I can bake either.

Give a compliment.

Read books to Kids.

My Job--most/some of the time. Under all the right conditions ie: enough sleep, enough food, right shoes, good pen, right patient, and the list goes on and on...but if all these things line up I am a DARN good RN.

Nagging. This may not be a good quality to have, but it has been the reason much has been accomplished in my life, either with my parents, kids, and husband--as well as others. I think some of you reading this have experienced my nagging. (do you want to go workout??)

7 THINGS I CAN'T DO:

Say a sincere Thank-you. Most of the time its just awkward and I sound flippant. It is not usually what is in my heart.

Diet. This is why I really truly love to workout--I would much rather take a few more laps, then to not be able to eat my delicious brownies.

Stick a child. I was the IV queen when working with adults--seriously other units would call me to come do a "hard stick", but now--no way--I haven't even tried!!

Get mad at Alec. I don't know why I reserve this just for him, but I do. I seem to be able to produce monumental anger with everyone and anyone else. (I don't usually get mad at my little bro either--even when others are ready to throw him under a truck.)

Yoga. BORING!!!

Stop watching TV. I have tried many times to go "without". My withdrawls are too intense for me and anyone that has to live with me.

Have a conversation with my Mom without talking about my kids and my Dad. Too bad for her!

7 THINGS I ALWAYS SAY:

Do your homework, pleaaaassee!!!

Whats for dinner.

Seriously, are you going to throw a tantrum over this? (Remember, I have a 2 and 14 yr. old.)

That's fine. (Not usually what I really mean.)

I need to go to the gym tonight, teamed with: Do you want to go workout tonight?

My turn for the computer.

Do you need to go potty? (I actually say this to everyone--not just my 2yr. old)

7 THINGS I LOVE TO EAT:

Spaghetti--my FIL's is the best!!

Brownies

Vanilla ice-cream with chocolate sauce

Mango Chicken salad

Fruit--any kind, in season.

Rolls, especially my Mom's.

Chocolate cake--"if it isn't chocolate, it isn't cake".

7 THINGS THAT ATTRACTED ME TO MY HUSBAND:

He had a car. (We were both at SUU and he was the only one I knew who could get me to the grocery store--remember, I am good at eating.)

He cooks.

He loved to go study in the mountains. (Again when we were at school--We would hike to a quiet spot and study for hours)

He got along good with my brothers.

He is so nice to animals--even when they are not ours.

He can talk to anyone.

He loves to make the people that he loves happy...no matter what.

TAG 7 OTHERS:

I don't really have seven other people that read this blog (she tagged some of my family already).
LUCKY YOU!
