I know this much is true

Things that I know about myself:
  • I could never be vegan.  I love cheese too much.  Cheese is incredible.  Don't you agree?  Oh my goodness and a fried egg on ratatouille.  I'm suddenly hungry.
  • I love water, but hate having to go the bathroom every 30 minutes.  It's impossible for a nurse to do this.  I'm lucky if I get to go two to three times in one shift!  Needless to say, I work with several people who have recently had bladder infections.
  • I get bored easily, especially with jobs.  Eventually, I'll find one that fits, but I have several plans in the future that involve either leaving or working multiple places, like owning my own cafe and doing something in cancer research.
  • I cannot get motivated to workout, especially alone.  I like to workout with others, but I live too far from all the people that workout on a regular basis.  Yes, I'm making excuses.  I will work out tomorrow.  Will you workout with me, please?
  • I like a good plan.  I love some spontaneity, but a good plan is perfection, if it works out or even if it takes a little spontaneity to make it work (Love some Tim Gunn!).
  • I will never be a morning person.  Here's hoping for non-morning person kids.
  • I get better with age.  I think we all do.  A little experience, a few wrinkles, and acceptance of things we can change and cannot change makes everyone a little more interesting and better at this thing called life.
  • I'm an old soul.  I'm drawn to vintage, antiques, and days of the past.  I love new things too, don't get me wrong, but my heart longs for yesterday on most days.
  • Clothing is the easiest way for me to express myself. 
  • I can get what I want, if I put enough heart, soul, and determination to get it.  No one can stand in my way.  Want to try me? I'm so not a tough girl either.
  • You can take school away from the girl, but you can never take away the notebooks from this girl.  I have notebook upon notebooks full of lists, ideas, websites, grocery lists, and any thing I think I need to write down.
  • I want to learn something new every day until my last day.  I can never know too much. 
  • I hate driving.  What was I thinking about taking a job in Dickson?  Seriously.  I know this about myself.  I didn't get my license until 17 because my other friends could drive me around.  I would still let you drive me around.  Want to volunteer?
  • I'm a glass half full person, so don't try to bring me down.  Don't look at things from a negative side, look at them from a "what can I learn from this," no matter how bad things are going.  Negativity will only bring you down and I'm frustrated that most people will let it.
  • I know hardly anything about classic rock, nor do I really want to know anything.
  • I'm great at math, but I do not really like math.  I don't think she likes me much either.
  • Sometimes I just don't want to put in the effort to pick up the phone or hang out.  I'm working on this.  I have great friends and they should know that they are appreciated.
  • A good song can always change my day or mood.
  • I don't like being overwhelmed.  I either bail or my body will bail on me.  I like being pushed, but when it crosses the threshold of overwhelmed.. peace, I'm out.
  • I would love to move out of state, but I could never do it.  Tennessee is home.  I'm a southern girl at heart, minus hunting, the country accent, and being subservient to men.  I choose to be in the kitchen.
