21. Black dresses are a new obsession for me. I love 'em!
22. I didn't like leggings until my job forced me to try our brand on and now I adore them. Though it should be noted that the only leggings I like are from our company. (Seriously, the ones we sell are the best I have found, in terms of comfort & fit.)

24. I play farmville on facebook.

44. It's taken me 3 days to complete this list so far. :-)
45. I can't sew, despite the fact that both my Grandma's sew/sewed and my Mom sews.
46. I had to suck up to the Home Economics teacher in 7th & 8th grade to pass sewing with an A.

Ok....50 is a good number for now. Have a good day friends...romans...countrymen!
That was really cute and interesting! As for the GPS, I think it's pretty much an essential for a military wife. I have no sense of direction and always dreaded learning my way around new duty stations until we got our Garmin. I think all of the smart phones have a navigation application, too.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I agree about voice mail, and my mom is also my best friend. :)
We have Garmins too! They're useless on base, of course.
ReplyDeleteMy stylist is at home in Michigan. I haven't been to her in a couple of years because the timing of my trips home is always so bad, but I've never committed to a specific salon in the places we've lived since I left home.
If we do end up having children, I have a feeling that I will not want to have a boy. Maybe I should stick to cats.
