Just 4 Fun, Get to Know Me Things

Someone asked that I post 25 things about me to know me better. At first I couldn't come up with anything but then I kept going making the list longer than 25. Anyhow here it goes nothing really exciting...

1. I grew up in a small town in northern Mexico, we lacked commodity but lived very happy. I loved helping my mother sell food on the weekends.
2. I started earning money at age 8. I baby sat my now 25yr old nephew. When in season I picked cotton, tomatoes, chili peppers, and grapes on my grandpa’s field.
3. I moved to the States at age 10, learning English was a great challenge for me. I now speak both Spanish and English fluently.
4. I graduated high school in 1993 and will always regret not going to college.
5. I never thought to marry and become a homemaker. I enjoy it very much now.
6. I never learned how to cook until my 2nd yr of marriage, I now really like it. My specialty is Mexican dishes. I don’t follow recipes well so I just go by taste. Baking is not for me. I like to cook and taste different foods. I do not like to eat or cook fish.
7. I dislike having a dirty home, kitchen and baths especially. I like it when it smells clean
8. I don’t know how to relax. I seriously can’t go to bed without cleaning the kitchen first.
9. As much as I clean and try to keep my home organized, is hard to maintain it that way.
10. I never did have a hobby until now. I enjoy blogging, playing v-ball, and jogging. I don’t watch much TV, unless is HGTV and TLC when time allows it.
11. My goals are to earn a degree, learn how to play a musical instrument, serve a mission, and doing humanitarian work.
12. Running around in PJ’s or any type of loose clothing is not for me, it gives me a lazy and tired feeling.
13. I love to run every morning or evenings although lately I been too lazy.
14. I might not be the smartest, but have good common sense.
15. I find it hard to make new friends, there for I don’t have many. I consider myself boring, with a good sense of humor.

17. I have lived in a bus (not a tour bus) a real passenger bus at a junk yard, garage, apartment, and now a home. I know what it feels to go hungry on a Christmas morning. Life has thought me humility and gratitude.
18. I think I have a great memory, except with names.
19. I don’t know how to write well, but I do much better in spelling.

21. Serving others is a great feeling. I wish I do it more often.
22. I cry for every little thing. I am a very sensitive woman. I don’t really eat chocolate, and I don’t like money to be spent in flowers. I’m just weird. I do love diamonds. 
