In my favorite poem by Robert Frost, Nothing Gold Can Stay, he reminds us that like the seasons of nature, life is one season melting into another, and quickly fading away. This is my attempt to document each season in my life and my family.

Tag, I’m It!

Heather tagged me for this little meme, so here goes. I’m supposed to share six random things about me.

1. I love literature, and I enjoy reading almost anything. However, I really hate Shakespeare.

2. I refuse to let my kids watch Yo Gabba Gabba. Even though I’m sure it’s no worse than a lot of other asinine children’s programming, the skinny man in the weird, spandex jumpsuit freaks the crazy out of me.

3. I cannot roll my tongue or my r’s.

4. I love Contemporary Christian Music (think Leeland, Third Day, Bethany Dillon, etc. NOT old school CCM like Michael W. Smith, DC Talk, or Carmen) and I always kind of feel like I lost if someone tells me about a really awesome new song/album/artist that I haven’t yet heard. :)

5. I love to travel and go to new places. Even if I don’t particularly enjoy that place, I really like adding it to my list of places I’ve been to.

6. I don’t like petting animals. I hate the way it makes my hands feel dirty. Even if it’s your dearly loved, meticulously groomed chiuaua named Mr. Peanut with a darling little black leather Harley Davidson vest who kisses you all over your face because you are his ever loving Mommy….even then….I don’t want to pet him.

Now, I’m supposed to tag six other people. So, Joy, Alyssa, Faith, Lori, Jenn, and Laura…tag, you’re it.

I feel the same way about petting animals…the very same way. No matter how clean an animal (even a house pet) is I still think they have a distict ’smell’. That’s why we don’t have any pets… ;)
