Have I told you how much we are alike? Seriously. You are my sista!
I kept saying oh yeah, me too.. except for the whole home birthing thing.. not going to happen for me. EVER.
Great list, super fun to read!
Loved your list. It is fun to get to know someone better when they describe themselves.
Misty, Great list. That was so fun to read. I'm the oldest too, very bossy and always trying to solve other people's problems.
I love you to allthough it took you to # 100 to say so whatever.
It's called save the best for last. :P
You and I are a lot alike. Exept I am a fabulous decorator (if I had money), I am super loud and outgoing in large groups, oh and I cook like I mean it. But I can relate to you on SO many levels.
You're too funny. I hope you know how much my wife loves you. in only a friendly way, not that other kinda way. that would make for an awkward relationship for you and I. anyway. great 100 things, we need to try Settlers again with just 3-4. my sister and brother in law aren't the best at 6 player. common, it's okay!
It's true, I do love you! Okay that just sounds wrong. But whatever. Hopefully I will see you tomorrow!!
Your title made me think of that song "I just wanna be a sheep...bah,bah,bah, bah"!
Traci
Great List! I have known you my whole life and it was fun to learn things about you that I didn't know! :) Love ya!
