EmbarrassingTruths

#Truth

I love to do the "Electric Slide" to the song "Islands in the Stream" (by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton).  Somewhere in NYC video proof of this fact exist as my sister (Amanda) and I did Kentucky proud at my 30th birthday party...(*blush*)

I am counting down the weeks until I can afford to have botox touch-ups (because I am beyond over- due)...I shamelessly admit to adoring (cue Carly Simon's "You're So Vain") cosmetic enhancements...

Despite my crusade to minimize wrinkles and sun spots, I wear very little makeup and in fact, often prefer an SPF tinted moisturizer, lip gloss, and mascara as opposed to a fully done face...

I will not reference vanity again in this post.

Non-fat Vanilla Lattes from McD's are my favorite caffeinated beverage in the world (yep, the entire world...and perhaps even the entire universe...it's just that good)

I have 14 tattoos.  If there was a 12 step program for tat junkies I would attend...

I removed my acryllic nails more than a month ago (after years of sporting them continuously).  I am surprised by how much I like having short, natural nails (I now match all of my sisters :)

On the other hand, I definitely miss pedicures...

The muscles in my neck/shoulders are killing me....who knew that working in the flower beds (okay I admit it--jumping up and down on the shovel as though it were a pogo stick in an effort to relocate my hostas) would cause so much soreness?

My mom recently told me she knows I am doing well whenever I start blogging again....

My mother is very smart.

Year to date I have found no topic, subject, etc. that I will not blog about regardless of how shocking or taboo it may seem...

I am secretly thrilled everytime my boyfriend leaves loose change in my car...

I am OCD (though considerably less so since I hit my thirties) with my home, office, etc.  For whatever reason, my vehicles have never fallen into this category. 

And as a result they look like bombs detonated.

My son starts middle school this fall and even though it's been decades since I was that age, I still remember it like it was yesterday. 

Which is alarming.
