I am a home body

Cross stitch done by me, pattern from slip cover your life.

I am a home body. I always have been. Ever since I was a girl, I would always prefer to stay home and have a night to myself then go hang out with friends. Now in college I went out all the time and partied like the best of them, but it seems that as soon as college ended and I moved in with my mister my desire to go out died away again.

As I was home this weekend...doing absolutely nothing. It hit me that I really do enjoy to be by myself and sometimes I have no desire to go out and go to the park, hit up a thrift store, get lunch with a friend, or go on an adventure. Sometimes I just want to sit with my life and enjoy what I am and where I am at that moment. I suppose you could call me a hermit or whatever else you want to, but if you ask me the best place in the world to be is home.

Life less ordinary

 A pretty card I found at Ellwood Thompson's.

A life less ordinary. A thought provoking idea isn't it. Makes me wonder what constitutes as ordinary or not so ordinary life. I would like to think I live a life less ordinary, here are my top reasons why.

*I think the greatest food combination in the world is white wine and cheez its. I swear people this will solve all the worlds problems, you can thank me later.

*I love Paul Newman and Molly Ringwald. I mean Paul Newman is was sexy as hell, and Molly Ringwald in all her short red hair and pouty faces make for a wonderful afternoon...maybe even pick one of her movies with lots of bleached jeans and crazy hats, you'll enjoy it I promise.

*I hum...yep it's true I pretty much hum all the time. While I am cooking, cleaning, and most importantly while I am grocery shopping. The little old ladies at the store give me funny looks but then I throw the stink eye at them in their walkers and orthopedic shoes...sometimes we have a stare down...I usually win.

*I call my dad Foobs. Long story short my dad and I play with words all the time and at some point I called him faber (instead of father) and then my best friend spelled it foober while keeping score of a card game and the foobs was born. You will hear a lot about him I am sure. Let's just say Foobs is the best dad on the planet, don't care if you all think yours is best because he's not...mine is!!

So there are a few things that make my life less ordinary. What makes your life less ordinary?
