100 things about me

I've seen it done on many blogs.. but honestly I've been too lazy to write one. I have extra time today and really want to write a blog.. so here goes.

1. I love the color blue.. any shade really... I always have and have no idea why I'm so drawn to it.
2. Traveling is one of my favorite things to do.. I just don't get to do it enough. There are so many places I want to see before I die... Italy is at the top of that list.
3. I have 2 children from a previous relationship. As of right now we have no plans on having anymore.
4. I'm a cake decorator. I absolutely love it... I've always been fascinated by it but never thought I would one day end up doing it. I hope to one day open my own shop.
5. I live in the Northwest... and LOVE it. I have lived down south and in the northeast and would not pick to live anywhere else.
6. I love the sound of rain falling on the roof and ground. It soothing and erotic at the same time.

8. I lost my virginity at the age of 15 on Valentine's Day.
9. I don't drink much anymore but have lots of drunken stories to tell.
10. I like to bake and cook.. bake more so than the other. I don't get to do it that often though and end up doing tons of it during the holidays.

16. I'm a list maker... I make lists at work.. for grocery shopping... for what needs to get done... for vacations. It helps to see my thought process down on paper... and be able to mark things off.

18. Ben introduced me to poker.. and I really enjoy it.. even if I'm not that great at it. I wouldn't stand a chance at a casino.
