8 Random Things

Ok, since I got tagged, here we go:

1. I am an avid crafter--scrapbooking, crocheting and knitting are the main things I pick up when I have time, but I also have made jewelry, soaps, etc. There is nothing better than finishing a project form start to finish in a week! (Secretly, I wish I could sew, but I don't have room for anymore craft junk.)

2. If I could, I would take a cooking class. Cooking is sort of my secret passion, but I am either too lazy or too busy to do much of it. I am a GREAT cook, tho'. tehe. But I don't have much in my bag of tricks.

3. Reality TV is kind of a guilty pleasure of mine...much to the chagrin of my husband. I limit myslef to one reality show at a time--like right now it is The Bachelor. *blush* Shhhh, don't tell anyone.

4. If I'm not watching the stupid Bachelor, I watch cooking shows. My favorite are Barefoot Contessa, Nigella Bites, The Naked Chef and sometimes Everyday Italian (but my husband has told me Giada has a big head and tiny arms so many times that now I have trouble watching her).

5. My original degree work was a bachelors in Psychology with a minor in English. I got 70 credits into that and got married and had a couple kids. Psych never really appealed to me after that? (And I know you remember how much I hated my Psyche rotation)

6. I got into nursing after being a doula to a few friends. Falling in love with obstetrics was my downfall, I suppose.

7. I have generalized anxiety disorder--that is well under control without medications, but when it reared it's angry head about 5 years ago, it almost did me in! Now I kind of look at is as more of a spiritual issue...

8. Which leads me to #8--not so obscure, but I am a Christian. :)

There ya go!
