Share three interesting things about yourself...

Sometimes it's difficult for us moms to think that we are even interesting at all anymore. Somewhere between changing diapers and doing the 30th load of laundry of the day, we loose ourselves, who we are, what makes us, well, us. I've had to sit and think about this one today. I know I'm interesting, at least I thought I used to be. So, here goes - I enjoy making jewelry - the beaded kind. It's one of those things that I can sit and do for hours - not that I have hours to spend on it. It's nice to create something for someone - something that says, I think this is you or fits your personality and then give it away to them. I enjoy playing the piano. I have the piano that I was taught on as a young child. I, once again, do not get to play it often, but when I do, it transports me to another time and place. I'm able to just relax and concentrate on the music. There is no room in my mind for the endless chatter when I'm playing. Lastly, I'm a CNN junkie - more specifically a political CNN junkie. I love the ongoing debates and coverage of all the primaries and caucuses that go on. I need my nightly Anderson Cooper fix on AC 360 and it is not coincidental that this happens to be at the same time when the house is quiet and everyone else is asleep. That is my time. So, maybe I'm not that interesting compared to some, but in this hectic life of kids and homework and housework and yes diapers and laundry, it's about as much as I can muster.
