Hard to believe that today is my birthday ~ yikes! I am now definitely closer to 40 than I am to 30. Does this concern me? Not one bit ~ after all, age is just a number. Since I'm turning 36 on this fine August day, I thought I would give you 36 fun facts about me:
1. I have 2 sisters and 2 brothers
2. One of my sisters calls me “Sue” …..huh? And I answer to her!
3. Coffee… use to hate the stuff, now I love it….black…every morning
4. I had an adorable perm when I was (glad I could make you laugh today)
5. I love cheesecake
6. And strawberry shortcake and pie (ok, pretty much any dessert that contains fruit)
7. “The Little Mermaid” is my favorite animated Disney movie, maybe it’s because I remember my dad taking me…..

Crayons to Lipstick”. I wish I had a picture of that to show you. Hmm... Next time I visit them ;)

Only 9 more months of invisalign? I have at least two more years of big, clunky, tin-grin braces. They are awful, but there wasn't another option. My teeth needed too much work for invisalign to be an option.
Happy birthday!
Aww Wendy I loved reading all of those and getting to know you better. One thing I must say: you are BRAVE by checking your weight every morning...and documenting it on top of that? But of course you are some HOT MAMA and look great! I would surrender in a depression state (ha!)
You are hilarious and that list could have been written by me!! So many were the same, namely: 4,5,6,7,8,9,12,16,17,20,21,23,24,26,28,31, and 34!
#30 is just plain weird. Hah ha!
Um, something about me...I sing all day long. Big guy will say "What was that?? time to turn on the radio!"
I'm a new follower! :)
Happy (belated) Birthday!! I love all these facts and I had to agree with so many of them. Love the 'crayons to lipstick' cake. I can not keep a dry eye when hearing the Star Spangle Banner either. :)
