This post is a day early but I will be preparing for the Youth Retreat tomorrow. I have seen this type of meme on other blogs for birthday posts. So for my 41st birthday I am going to share 41 random things about me.
1. I love sushi.
2. I sell toilets for a living. (I am a plumbing showroom manager)
3. I have 1 sister.
4. My dad was killed in an accident when I was 15.
5. I drive a pickup truck.
6. I love the sound a wooden screen door makes when it slams. We have three of those doors on our house.
7. I am a youth choir director.
8. As of right now my favorite US city is Chicago. I would love to visit many more and add to the list.
9. I want to go on an Alaskan cruise before I die.
10. I graduated from college with a degree in Electronics Engineering Tech. My mom thinks she wasted her money.
11. My first car was a PINK Datsun pickup truck.

20. The china pattern I collect is Salem Petit Point.

22. I love fresh linen and black cherry scented candles.

There, now you all know a little more about me. Probably more than you wanted to.
One last tidbit, for those of you who have children, I share a birthday with Sponge Bob.
Have a beautiful day. I plan to spend this birthday weekend with the kids in the church youth group. I hope you have a great weekend.

Teresa...i always love reading little tid-bits about people and learning something about them. I am cracking up about the "poptarts". And I thought the sound of the wooden screen door was very cool and totally different. I happen to like the sound of the dryer, especially when going to sleep...weird I know :0) Hope you had a wonderful weekend.
This is such a great celebration of your birthday! I hope your present arrived in a timely manner:)
Happy belated birthday! I'm just like you in that I can't sit still very long. It feels good to get things done.
Nice, honest list. Thanks for sharing some of yourself.
