**Thanks Kerri for the award! I can't wait to meet you and be your roomie in Chicago!



**Seven things about me:

1. I love the rain. I love the smell of it. I love that it means cuddling up with a blanket and a fire in the woodstove, and stew in the crockpot. Oh, and if you are really lucky, mom makes home made bread too.

2. I have never met my biological father. He denies my existence. What a chump.

3. I like cleaning and organizing. Yes, I said I like it.

4. I love kids, but I don't ever plan on having any of my own. Dave agrees (thank goodness!). I love being a school counselor and giving 110% to the kids, especially the kids who don't have the best parents or adults in thier lives.

5. I would love to move out to the middle of nowhere and live on a working ranch. I know what kind of work it is, but something about it is just calling me...

6. I met my boyfriend (soon husband) at the local dog park. His two dogs were the most annoying dogs ever! Eventually we became friends and then more- now I live under the same roof with his annoying dogs and I wouldn't have it any other way!

7. I love cooking and baking. I would love to take some cooking classes to learn more. I dream of opening a cupcake shop or small catering business when I retire from my day job!



** I follow so many blogs I don't know how I would chose 15 to nominate- I'd like to just invite everyone to post some new things about themselves and have fun with blogging.
