Kim at Season’s of my Heart tagged me this week…. (by the way she has some adorable pictures up today…go see)
Accent~ Born in Arizona, have lived in Florida the last 12 years, I don’t have an accent…do I Mom? I don’t know living in Florida may give me a little one. Not sure.
I don’t drink~Milk (Ok I hear all the gasps around). I have ALWAYS disliked milk, but don’t worry I get my calcium in other ways.
Chores I dislike~Mopping my floors
Pets~Do my kids count? Just kidding. I have a Cocker Spaniel that is all heart no brain, and a cat who thinks he runs the joint.
Essential Electronics~My laptop, coffee pot, I-Pod, curling iron.
Perfume~Eternity =)
Gold or Silver~funny you should ask, I am getting into the “wearing both” at the same time. Not that I wear a lot of jewelry.
Insomnia~Sometimes when I am worried or stressed, or scared or God is talking to me.
Job Title~Short order cook, dishwasher, laundry person, toilet cleaner, Mother, Taxi driver, referee, Wife, Devotional writer, book review, tooooo many to list =)
Most Admired Trait~Ok I dislike thinking nice things about myself, but I guess I would have to say I have a big heart. Sometimes I think of that as a curse instead of a trait =)
Kids~Oldest child, 13; Middle child 12; youngest child 9. Like their names? Manly man and I thought long and hard on them, heehee.
Phobia~Spiders, someone breaking into my home, losing my husband to death, etc..
Religion~Believing in the Savior that died for my sins, and who rose again three days later. Baptist.
Siblings~I’m the oldest bossy sister, one sister, and one brother.
Time I wake up~6:00 Am on good days, 7am on bad days =)
Unusual talent/skill~I can multi task like nobodys business…..oh you can do that too? You must be a mother!
Vegetable I refuse to eat~peas.
Worst habit~Self critical, and always doubting.
X-rays~What kind of question is this??? I guess with my jaw surgery that was my last x-ray.

I loved your list! The xray question cracked me up! Someone should start a random medical procedure meme…THAT could really get interesting!

I’m amazed how many things you and I have in common. I’ve been an Eternity gal forever. Years and years. Occasionally I wear Clinique’s Happy, but Eternity is my signature scent.
I do not drink milk, and I can’t stand it. And like you, I get my calcium in other ways.
Great answers, Laurel. I totally agree you are too self doubting of yourself sometimes because I also totally agree you have a HUGE heart. And there’s certainly nothing wrong with that. It’s one of the most endearing things about you.

No milk? You surely dont understand what you are missing. What do you drink with chocolate chip cookies???
Love the name of your perfume.
Have a great weekend!!!

I’m with ya on the milk thing. Of course, we only have powdered, and that detracts somewhat from the taste.
And, I’m glad to know another oldest (read, bossy) sister!
Blessings,
Joy

I am an oldest as well–with two brothers. Great list. Hmmm–I think I have some memes around here that I am supposed to do. Eventually maybe.

I’m new to your blog and enjoyed reading this list. I agree with the top 3–no accent, don’t drink milk, and dislike mopping floors!
Terri @ In His Hands 08.27.07 at 3:07 pm
I’m not a milk drinker either! We also have a lot in common besides not drinking milk but I do like my peas.

I enjoyed reading this. I learned a lot about you. I don’t drink milk either, but what, oh what do you dip your chocolate cookies in? Don’t tell me if you don’t like CChip cookies. I just couldn’t take it.

Hi Laurel…it was good getting to know you through this meme!
I’m not a big milk drinker either, but I’ll sometimes pour a glass to go along with a PBJ or a piece of pie!
Malissa 08.29.07 at 10:04 am
I don’t drink milk either;)
And floor mopping is my least favorite chore too!
But I think peas are yummy;)
