For my very first post on my shiny new blog, I thought I’d post a little something about myself . Well, 20 little somethings about myself as kind of a ‘getting to know you’. Since this blog will be used to not only showcase my recent photographic endeavors but also my life in between the shutter clicks, I decided to start off with something that is telling of who I am. I’m going to be posting often with new photos and ramblings, so be sure to check back every now and again. Oh and when you stop by, leave me comment so I know you were here!
- I absolutely love my job and realize how fortunate I am to be one that loves what I do
- My husband and I knew each other and were practically best friends for 7 years before we started dating. What’s amusing is listening to us tell our accounts of why, in those 7 years, we never dated. They’re completely different
- I’m a big time TV junkie and have just recently come to realize this. Every week night I have one or two (…maybe three) shows I watch religiously. Thank goodness for DVR!
- Since becoming a photographer, I pay attention to light, particularly sunlight, and I never did before. A photographer would understand everything about this statement and likely be nodding in agreement; if you’re not a photographer you probably think I’m a bit crazy for saying such a thing!
- I love pedicures and manicures and my husband doesn’t understand why. He thinks they’re a waste of money and I think they’re fabulous.
- I love my dogs more than one should probably love four legged creatures. They’re always happy to see me, make me laugh on a daily basis, and are wonderful company when I’m home alone. Though silly to some, I really can’t imagine my life as I know it without my pups.
- I have an almost uncontrollable desire for sweets…chocolate in particular.
- One day, some day, I will be on Wheel of Fortune.
- There’s something about being by the water, lake or ocean, that melts my troubles away.
- I have a horrible fear of spiders…like scream bloody murder when I see one the size of a dime in my house kind of fear.
- I’m glad I’ve started exercising again. Though I curse the treadmill every time I go to get on it, when I’m done I always feel accomplished.
- I am a firm believer in the power pf prayer.
- I’m one of the only women I know who really dislikes shopping. I just don’t enjoy it. Unless there’s something I need, I avoid the mall like the plague.
- Friday the 13th is usually a lucky day for me. Perhaps it’s because every 6 years my birthday happens to land on Friday the 13th.
- I have an aunt who passed away 4 and a half years ago and there’s rarely a week that goes by that I’m not reminded of how awesome she was.
- One of my most favorite things to do is laugh so hard, I cry.
- When I was in middle school, I was stung by a man-of-war while snorkeling in Mexico. To this day, I can’t remember a time in my life when I was in more pain than that.
- A good movie in my sweatpants with my husband and my dogs at my side beats a night out on the town any day of the week.
- When I’m alone in my car and a good song comes on the radio, I’m suddenly the lead singer of my own sold out concert.
- Even though it’s been off the air for 5 years, I’m still addicted to FRIENDS. I loved it when it was on, love watching the DVDs of the seasons, and love that my husband and I are unbeatable at any and all FRIENDS trivia.
And because a post is never quite complete without a picture, here’s a recent photo my sweet husband took of me for my new website!
