25 Random Things to Know About Me
(as if you didn't already know!)
1. I'm married to the best guy in the world. He takes care of me in a million ways, he protects our relationship, he makes me laugh more than anyone else, and he gets more good looking every year. Yes, I'm that lucky.
2. I am addicted to morning coffee.....lots of flavored creamer, and from a ceramic mug, is the best way to enjoy it.
3. That being said, I love to collect mugs for my morning coffee - and there IS rhyme and reason behind it. Can't be too big, can't be too small, and HAS to be whimsical and cute.
4. I love being a doggie Mama but it's awful hard work. Especially when your dog takes Prozac for his anxiety :) But his morning snuggles are worth it. Even if he is a beast most of the time.
5. I have been blessed with the best friends in the entire world. I have girlfriends who stick by me through thick and thin, who encourage and love the heck out of me, and who truly create a community for me away from my family (the first and best community most of us will ever know). I could not do life without my girls. Y'all are the best.
6. Speaking of family, mine is unbelievable. They just keep getting better, and I have never had a better time with them than each visit home. I love you guys. Thanks for putting up with all the "Jess" in me for years.
7. I am a big hugger. I can hardly say hi or bye without hugging.
8. I have traveled to Japan, Ireland, England, Mexico, Jamaica, Canada, many cruises, and all over the United States. All with my Hubs, who has really opened up the world to me. I didn't think I'd enjoy traveling so much. See #1, again.
9. I love having roommates. Since we've been married, we've lived with the Hammers for a month and with Kate for many a month. It's always a blast. I love community.
10. I am learning to cook. And surprisingly, I enjoy it. Pass on the recipes, folks!
11. I am an ER nurse and I really love my job.
12. But I am also a photographer, and I'm discovering that I love that the most.
13. I pray for snow, all winter long. I love, love, love snowy days.
14. I'm a hopeless interrupter. If we have a conversation, I will interrupt you. Lovingly so......I just can't help it!
15. I love to play softball, still. I started playing summer and fall ball again after many years off, and once again I'm hooked.
16. I'm a procrastinator. I will rarely get a project or planning done when it needs to be, and will subsequently have a near breakdown in the final moments leading up to said project.
17. I text while driving. Yes, yes, I KNOW!
18. I got my first tattoo in December 2008, and I love it. Went with my sisters-in-law Kate and Marri and we all got "A" tattoos, in different spots.
19. I might possibly be addicted to bags. Purses, whatever. I love them. I buy them aimlessly sometimes, and if you're my friend long enough I'll probably buy you a bag too in hopes that you'll join my club :)
20. I didn't know I would love my niece as much as I do - but I would literally give my life for her, and it gives me the slightest glimpse of what it must feel like someday for me to love my own child so completely.
21. I'm a nick-namer. I don't call hardly anyone by their real name, but instead by their very own made up name. Our dog doesn't even know that his name is Sarge, but instead thinks he is The Rat, Ratissimutt, Sargento Cheese, etc. This comes from a long line of Price nick-namers, I hope you know. I was born into that legacy. Inanimate objects are also subject to being nicknamed.
22. I got braces last January, and wish I'd gotten them sooner.
23. I smell EVERYTHING. And I love things that smell good - candles, perfume, body wash, etc - I will buy in excess, things that I don't even need, just because they smell good. And I don't eat anything without smelling it first.
24. I love to workout. Not before I go, but always afterwards. And that's enough to keep me going.
25. I miss my friends from my previous homes - from Missouri and from Florida - very, very much. Moving is hard on me. If you're reading this, I miss you, seriously.
What a fun little project :) Thanks to all of you that tagged me a million times - sorry it took so long. Did you see #16??
Love y'all.
