Old School Blogging: Five Unknown Things

For this month's Old School Blogging, hosted by Elaine and this month Nicole of Moments that Define Life we are supposed to share 5 things that people might not know about us.  When you have been blogging for almost 6 years (will be 6 years on the 23rd of this month), it starts to seem like there probably isn't anything you don't know about me, but I'll try.



1. My freshmen year of college I thought I was going to graduated in communications, specifically public relations.  I was even part of the Student Public Affairs society.  But after one class which my grade started off good then quickly turned awful, I decided Public Affairs was not for me.
   Now 15 years later I am serving as my Stake Public Affairs Social Media Specialist for my church for my entire city.  I guess Public Affairs is once again for me.

2. If you have read my blog for a while, or know me than you know this-- but if you are new.. I had open heart surgery when I was 5-years-old.  I actually have what is called Shone's Syndrome.  Thankfully my surgery at 5 was a huge success and I have been fine ever since.

3. I am the 5th of 6 kids.  I loved growing up in a big family, though most of my older siblings went gone off to college when I was still in grade school, so it often didn't seem nearly as big as it was.

4. I have never drank alcohol, never smoked or never tried drugs in my life and never plan too.  It is probably a good thing too as I definitely have more of an addictive personality; just ask my husband about how much I play some of the silly games on my iPad.

5. I really am not that neat of a person.  Thankfully my husband is really clean and his influence has rubbed off on me over the years.  I am scared to think what my home would look like if I were married to a slob.

So there ya go, did you know those things?  Tell me something about you that I might not know.
