13 Things To Know About me:

1)  My license plate says "CE-3P0".  My husband's says AR2-DE2.  Yea, we're Star Wars fanatics.  :)

2)  My Parents are retired "Ministers of Music".  They created and lead the music programs at the Church I grew up in.  Growing up I didn't realize how hard of a job this really is.  But now I know.

3)  Jumping off #2.....I grew up singing in the youth choirs at our Church and also played the clarinet for a little, then switched to flute.  I also played the piano.

4)  I do not deal with change very well.  (Capricorn)  If something suddenly changes, I do a little internal "freak out", then I eventually get over it.  I like to have a plan and know what is coming next.  :)

5)  I like to draw (doodle really) and write.

6)  I have worked for the same company since 1989 (with a 9 month break in 2006 to try my hand at doing Real Estate...didn't like it so much, went back to said company LOL)

7)  I used to be a ZUMBA® Instructor.

8)  I have anxiety and take (legal) drugs for it.  

9)  I foster dogs that were on the "last call list".  We currently have a sweetie now that is up for adoption!

Meet BRUNO!

10)  My music tastes are all over the board.  I like anything from classical to heavy metal.  And I listen to it all!  The genre that I gravitate toward though is heavy metal.  (Alter Bridge, Godsmack etc..)

11)  I find the world/local news to be depressing.

12)  I was born in Topeka, Kansas

13)  I like to believe there are still good people in this world.

Now it is YOUR turn!  What are some things I should know about YOU??

Prompt for WEEK 33 (August 20) is:
I feel stupid when
I hope I never
My one piece of advice to the world

Do you have hidden artistic talents?

For me, I think I do.  I mean I have so many things rolling around inside my head all the time.  I like to write.  I've been wanting to write a book for a long time!  So I started this blog and hardly use it.  :(  I think it about too hard then I get frustrated and just stop thinking about it.

I like to paint - either free hand or paint-by-numbers.  LOL  Yep, did those as a young kid!  Still like to do them.  I like to pencil draw/doodle.  So I get myself a sketch pad and pencils.  I drew a picture of Jesus.  I started drawing other objects.  Mostly just doodling.  Then I set it aside and Hubby gets irritated with it just sitting there.  HAHA! 

I don't know how to take these things in my head and put them to use.  I guess not giving up would be the first thing.  Just keep practicing.  I feel I have something deep down inside me, just need to figure out how to pull it out.

How do you bring out your artistic talents?
