10 Day You Challenge - 10 Secrets

I've been wanting to do this for a couple of weeks now but I had trouble coming up with 10 secrets. Or better yet 10 secrets I wanted to share with everyone. I'm linking up with How Sweet It Is to share.


Here goes:

1. I own and actually watch all six seasons of Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman. I love this show and never get sick of it. It's ridiculous I know. I don't watch much t.v. I have no time for it but this show has always been my favorite. So that's an embarrassing secret.

2. I'm self conscience about everything, my appearance, my weight, how I interact with people. I've been like this my whole life. I feel like it's getting worse rather than better. As I get older I find more things to be self conscience about.

3. I'm socially awkward. I'm pretty outgoing and friendly once you get to know me but you have to be the one to talk to me first. I don't approach people I don't know because I'm self conscience (refer to #2) about saying something stupid or looking dumb.

4. I've had plastic surgery (I won't say where though). If you know me this isn't really a secret but it's not something I'm comfortable putting out in the blogging world. It was probably 60% medically necessary and 40% cosmetic. It 100% improved my self confidence though.

5. I don't like running as much as other people think I do. I do it because I have friends who love it. I love the Ragnars and races but it's only because I'm running with friends. I have to force myself to train for a race.

6. I work because I could never be a stay at home mom. I wish I could but knowing myself, my weaknesses, and my flaws it would be a disaster. I admire those women who can do it and long to be more like them.

7. I'm high maintenance. Not in the way that it takes me hours to get ready or I wear lots of make-up or I have to have the best clothes and shoes. I just take a lot of work. I can be irrational and overly emotional most of the time. I am so thankful I have a husband who is willing to deal with me, a husband who loves me and supports me. It scares me to think where I would be without him.

8. I can't say no. It's why my life is as hectic and busy as it is now. If you ask me to do something, join something, buy something chances are I will say yes. I stretch myself way to thin. I'm working on this because it not only affects me but my family too.

9. I tell people I'm done having kids but secretly I want to have another baby. I'm afraid of having three kids though. I feel so overwhelmed with just two that adding another one scares the life out of me.

10. I have to do my husbands hair when we go out together or with friends. I don't care what he does with it when he goes to work but I want it to look just right when we're out. I am so lucky he indulges me.

So here they are 10 secrets about me. Most of these were very personal and hard for me to write but I'm glad I have this outlet to share. Stay tuned for my 9 loves. I'm excited for this one.
