So maybe this list just isn't my thing...but here goes 51-75

I know it has been a very long time since I wrote the last installment of "100 little known facts about me", but since I live my life as an open book this list is harder than I thought.

51. I have been on every diet plan you can imagine...not all of them but pretty close.

52. I have already quit WW again...I'm now on South Beach Diet.

53. I realize that I can never live my life without carbs and sugar, but I can do it for at least a little while.

54. The main reason I want to lose weight is because I don't want to spend so much money on wedding pictures only to think "I look so fat."

55. Anthony and I plan to have kids right after we get married...we will not be doing the traditional waiting two or three years.

56. I have a fear (a fear I have had for a long time)that we may have problems having a baby. There isn't any reason that I think this...it has just always been something that worries me.

57. I hear my biological clock ticking...loudly!

58. My sophomore year in high school was my favorite. Most people would probably say their senior year was the best,but by that time I was just ready to graduate.

59. I cried at my high school graduation...I didn't cry at my college graduations (undergrad or grad).

60. I spend most Friday nights at a high school football game.

61. I spend most Saturday nights watching TV with my parents if Anthony isn't in town.

62. I have been a real slacker lately when it comes to attending church.

63. I am getting really excited about the National Peanut Festival coming in couple of weeks...not as excited as usual since I cannot eat everything that I want to...I do plan to cheat and have a corndog.

64. I am a procrastinator.

65. In college I didn't write my term papers until the night before they were due...occasionally I would write them the morning they were due.

66. English has always been my favorite subject.

67. Science has always been my least favorite subject.

68. I have periods of time where I read a lot of books and other periods where I don't read books at all.

69. I love to vacation at the beach,but I don't like to swim in any water that doesn't have chlorine in it.

70. I have had a passport for ten years, but I have never used it.

71. I am one of those crazy people that shops on Black Friday (Friday after Thanksgiving).

72. My favorite season is Christmas!

73. Anthony registered for a Wii on our wedding registry...he wanted to register for a flat screen HD television...the Wii was our compromise.

74. Compromising is a new thing for me...I haven't yet perfected it.

75. My favorite stores to shop in are Ann Taylor Loft and The Limited.

Sometimes we expect too much!

I can be hard on the ones I love. I expect so much from them and sometimes my expectations are a tad unreasonable. I admit it...Anthony often takes the brunt of my unreasonable expectations. I found the words below is some old files and I thought God sent (resent) this to me at just the perfect time.

You might not be his first, his last, or his only. He's cared about someone else before and possibly will again- but if he cares for you now; then what else matters? He's not perfect and you aren't either, and the two of you will never be perfect, but if he can make you laugh, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He is probably not going to quote poetry. He might not be thinking about you every second of the day, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you can break. So don't hurt him, don't change him and don't expect more than he can give. Don't over analyze, smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him whenever he's not there.



Here is a picture of our "Save the Date" card...because I hate posting without pictures!

Back on the bandwagon!


So I am back on Weight Watchers. I tried to live life freely without it and it shows. I have gained so much unwanted weight. So I decided yesterday morning that it is back to the only program that works for me...at least in the last five years. Pray for me...I'll need it!


On a happier note...I ordered my wedding dress last week. I was having a bad day and I needed to shop. I really couldn't afford to waste any money so I decided to buy my wedding dress. I did feel much better afterwards and I am so happy that it is another thing off of my list. I have have included a picture of the dress I didn't choose. It was a close #2, but I am sure I made the right choice.

Anthony and I took engagement pictues on Sunday...I'll post them later.
