Tag Shmag


So Kelli tagged me...
6 random facts about me:

1. I'm spoiled. My husband cooks dinner for me almost every night and puts the kids to bed. He also let's me sleep in on the weekends.
2. Swimming in fresh water is one of my favorite things, but I'm also afraid of being in the water.

3. I am afraid of the dark.

4. I have crazy complex dreams almost every night. Last night I dreamt my mom's arm was burned off in a fireworks accident, and I was overwhelmed by how much I loved her and how glad I was that she was alive.

5. I love being alone. I love silence, not having anyone talk to me, and not having anyone touching me.
6. I can touch my nose with my tongue, but no, I will not show you.


I also like tag, so I'll tag Sara and Shauna.

Which arm was it? Arms usually symbolize giving and recieving love. Left-receive right-give.

Maybe you should tell Vic how you feel about your birthday. Matt never bought me presents for birthdays or Christmas or Mother's Day for about the first 10 yearts. Now he does and it's been good for us both I think.

I'm being a snob so I'm going to make fun of Keri for spelling tongue wrong and Shauna for spelling years wrong.

Ker--you've got to learn to just say what you really mean. Kyle has pounded this into me and I am much happier for it. I tell him when I want presents and when I want surprises and on and on and we are both much happier. I have complex dreams too and think about them all day long. Sometimes it's very consuming and energy draining. I also had a dream about Mom last night. She totally got pregnant at the age she is now!

I knew I was spelling tongue wrong, but I just kept looking at it and couldn't see it right.

The thing is, that I don't really like getting presents. And each year I really feel that way, and then I surprise myself when it's my birthday and he doesn't have anything for me.

Just remind yourself of this on your next birthday and tell him you want something..

Silent alone time is such pure bliss. A couple hours every day are necessary.

I agree, Kory feels the same way about gifts, he always says "no presents" but, he is warming up to it, and I get pure joy out of seeing his face when I actually give him something that he likes. So maybe you should just tell him now that you are trying to get over this issue you have with presents and that you would like him to get you presents, only if he wants. I think he would understand.

Also, for me at least, I find sometimes when I find ways to serve Kory, I am happier in my marriage.

That silent time comment was actually from me.

Forgot to log Kelli out I guess.

i share your love/fear of fresh water... weird.

Anderson's have issues with presents. As for the water, I love the water. But any environment where a 10 ton animal can sneak up on me from 3 dimensions, scares the crap out of me. But the ocean is my favorite place. I too have vivid dreams every night. And the more tired I am during the day I can't tell what's real anymore.
