I Want to Keep My New Friends

I don't really like being tagged. But, I have nothing better to do right now as I wait for my work day to be over in 1 hour and thirty nine minutes. I also want to keep my new friends Brittany Barnes and Heidy Myers who have tagged me in the past couple of weeks and I don't want them to be mad at me for not participating.

Random facts about me:

1) I only own two bobby pins and one hair tie and it has been like this for probably the past year. The hair tie is broke and I had to tie a knot in it. I don't know why I don't just go out and buy more bobby pins and hair ties. I guess it's something that I don't think about when I'm shopping.
2) I write down every single dollar that I spend. I am in charge of our family budget. I always tell David that I wear the pants since I handle the money, but he disagrees. I have also been known to save my money (until I got married and I have all these expenses). I still have money from my first babysitting jobs when I was twelve years old. Someday I'll buy a house and part of the money will be from those first times I was a babysitter.
3) I love the band Air Supply.
4) I am a water brat. I can't get myself to drink tap water unless I am in Washington state. There are a lot of bottled water companies that I don't like either.
5) I have a love/hate relationship with the Twilight series. I hate how Stephanie Meyers writes and there are so many different things about the books that bug me (I would gladly talk about this with anyone, so email me if you want more details), but I have read the entire series. Each book I've said, "I hate this book," but each book I just had to finish.
6) Everything has to be fair in my life. If we have a treat in the house, I make sure that David and I get equal amounts. If someone does me a favor, I feel like I need to repay them. If someone invites us to do something I feel like it is my turn to invite them to do something after.

I tag: Casey, Jamie, and Katie.

I've done tags before, so hopefully I have not mentioned these random facts in a previous post. Tonight is the branch talent show. I hope to get some great pictures or maybe even a video to share with you all.

I could never get sick of hearing little facts about you Sha. You're such an interesting person. Such a good/kind person especially. I too, love reading your blog. I loved your last post about Gustav. It looked like so much fun. What an adventure. I'm glad you guys are safe!
Ps. You'd be surprised with the amount of strangers looking at your blog. I just heard from a few people, that I never would have guessed, are looking at my blog. I guess they're not really strangers, but unexpected. I hope people actually comment to my post. You should test it out!

You are the first person that I have heard say exactly how I feel about the Twilight books!!! While reading, I always remark how I don't really like them, but then I have to finish it and of course read the book that follows! And I really don't like how she writes at all!! But when I express that to people they just don't understand why!!!

I would'nt be mad if you didn't do a tag. I actually hate tags also but feel obligated to do them. I just wanted to learn a little more about you. Your so cute. I am a huge saver too. Austin calls me the money nazi. You and david did so good last night, that was really fun.

I LOVE that you don't like stephanie meyers books!!! I haven't read them, but that cracks me up because everyone talks about how much they love them.

Please teach me on what you do to keep track of your money!!! I always think in my head that I do a great job, but then I go to marshalls or ross and spend $35 bucks here or there. I always say to myself, but I had to have the things. Please do a post for me or something.

I love reading these tag posts. I always learn something new, even from you, my own sister! That bobby pin/hair tie thing cracks me up. I can't believe you can live with only those three things with your long hair. Mine are always stretching out, so I can't wear my ties too many times.
