25 Random Things

I love it when my friend Shaunna posts her 25 things lists.  It is so fun to hear random things about my friends that I would never know otherwise.  So now it’s my turn.

25 things:

1. I wear old t-shirts and pajama pants (usually from Target) to bed every night.

2. I make no effort to match any of it. I just grab a T from the t-shirt shelf and pants from the pajama pants shelf.

3. Yes, I have a pajama pants shelf in my closet.  Is that weird?

4. I also have a painting clothes shelf.

5. When I was at Becky’s I was worried about what to wear for painting because my paint clothes are awful and horribly unflattering and I would normally NEVER wear them in front of ANYONE!

6. But then I decided to trust Becky and just look awful and believe that she wouldn’t judge me harshly.

7. And she didn’t….she was AWESOME.  She didn’t even notice, or she pretended not to notice.  Either way it was no big deal.

8. It took me years to finally find friends that would accept me the way I am and not try to change me.

9.  I am grateful every day for those women in my life.

10. But don’t get me wrong, they still make fun of me and tell me when my hair looks terrible…..which I appreciate.

11. My hair is a whole other subject.  It’s developed this weird, wiry curly wavy look that I find difficult to manage.

12. So when I go out in public I straighten it, but it’s a pain.

13. While I was at Becky’s I did straighten my hair.  I couldn’t expect her to ignore my horrible paint clothes AND my crazy hair.

14. My new obsession is Instagram.  It’s like Twitter but with pictures.

15. I never imagined I would take so many pictures of what I’m eating, pieces of paper and Sonic cups.

16. Sonic.  Ahhh….my summer refuge.

17. Since I’m off sodas, I’m drinking their unsweet tea and I add a little bit of stevia.

18. I always order an extra cup of ice.  It’s really the ice I’m after.

19. James will be gone next week so I am wondering who is going to deliver my Sonic ice to me when I’m working outside.

20. You say spoiled, I say loved.  Potato-potahto.

21. I spoil him too….like he never cooks or cleans.  It works just fine for us.

22. I’ll miss him when he’s gone.  And not just for the Sonic ice.  He also takes my packages to the post office.

23.  OK, I’ll miss him lots just because he’s wonderful.

24. And understanding.

25. And thank God for that because I require a LOT of understanding.

If you have a list of 25 things, leave a link in the comments.  It’s such a joy to get to know you better!

Have a wonderful weekend!

  2. I can’t imagine why anyone would want to change you! And speaking of change, why does our hair change as we get older? I’m in hate with the wirey, wavey grey hairs that started appearing after my 4th child turned 2. I have a stack of workout clothes…but we both know I don’t workout ;), at least you paint in your paint clothes.

    1. Oh Charity, you’re so sweet. I hear you on the workout clothes. It’s a challenge. Lisa~

  3. Lisa you are so adorable. I loved your 25 things. I too have a love affair with t-shirts, pajama pants and painting clothes. And James does sound wonderful. I’m glad you have wonderful in your life! XO

    1. Sandra, since I only get called adorable once every 10 years I’m soaking in the compliment. And you’re right, James IS wonderful! 🙂 Lisa~

  4. Pajama pants shelf? Not in my house. It would look ridiculous because it would shelve only two pairs of pajama pants – one pair of capri length yoga pants for summer and one pair of long pants for winter.

    My painting clothes are fairly limited, too. One shirt, one pair of capri length sweats. Perhaps they could share a small shelf with the aforementioned pajamas.

    I, too, order an extra cup of ice. When I’m at Starbucks, anyway. At Sonic, it’s just extra ice.

    Quit fighting the wave. Get a copy of The Curly Girl Handbook and learn to work with it. Life’s so much easier.

    Oh yeah, my list? It’s here. Well, it will be shortly. I already had something posted today, so this one will go live at 1:00 a.m., Mountain Standard Time. Feel free to read it then.

    Can I use html in your comment box? If not, that will just look silly.
