Favorite Pastimes at work (when I should be working): talking about our dogs with Marshall, about favorite tv shows with the staff, distracting our GM David Wells from working - he doesn't realize he needs it sometimes, talking food with anyone who'll listen, and singing with anyone who'll join me
A few of my other passions:
leading womens ministry at my church, Northstar of Knoxville
Compassion International
sailing
worship and music
dogs, animals in general
Some of my pet peeves
This is a list I will continue to add to :o)
*That stupid Filet-o-fish song
*When people who are supposed to love me and look out for my best interest send me picture messages on my cellphone of fake monkeys knowing I hate them
*When I have to fold clothes and put them up - hate it
*When boys in 6th grade dump you in the lunch room for one of your friends (yes I mean you Rex Lane)
*Self centeredness
*When I forget my passwords
*Why its a "pair" of socks and a "pair" shoes but also a "pair of pants" and "pair of underwear"... I don't get it
*That we drive on a prkway and park in a driveway
*When people think that we should only help others here in America, not elsewhere - we have it better than anyone else, our worst day still just doesn't compare to the lack of hope and resources available elsewhere. We even have churches on every corner for goodness sakes to at least hear truth in every week
*When we all over complain about things here - economy, gas prices, traffic,... again, we have it above and beyond most other countries... we began to focus more on that than what we are doing every day to make the world better for our neighbors
*When someome thinks it's just horrible when I burp - God made burps too!
*When people think they are better than everyone else - we all got here the same way - no one was hatched from a golden egg now people!
*When Americans think we have the corner market on what Christianity is and should be
*Box elder bugs - they cover my house twice a year and get inside (they live evidently in the silver maple tree and the ground around it)
*When the tonue of my tennis shoe gets too far down inside - it hurts and is so annoying
*People who don't love dogs, baby pigs, and other cutie pie animals
*That I don't have my very own road to drive on (this also is a pet peeve for my husband Todd)
*Those who don't appreciate good southern rock or the blues when it's really kickin'
