25 Random Things

Coley tagged me on her blog, so here goes (PS - I love your drapes Coley!):

RULES: Once you've been tagged, write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, tag the people that you want to know more about. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it is because I want to know more about you.

1. I incessantly pop my knuckles and joints, including my wrists, back, neck, toes, fingers, and ankles
2. I fidget ALL THE TIME
3. My first name isn’t Ginger
4. I had pet chickens growing up, and my favorite one was Popeye. She would come when I called her, and would sit on my lap
5. I love dogs
6. I love chocolate
7. I love pumpkin spice, warm brown sugar, or vanilla flavored candles/room scenter thingys
8. I play the organ
9. I love cooking and making new things that I didn’t think I could actually make myself.
10. I talk in my sleep occasionally
11. I dream almost every night
12. I HAVE to sleep with a noisemaker or I won't sleep a wink. Silence is way too loud for me!
13. One leg is longer than the other because I broke it when I was a kid
14. I broke the same leg as my big brother and we both have the same birthmarks on our legs
15. I think frogs are cute, but they stink so I won't get one
16. I dyed my hair black when I was 16
17. I lost 60 pounds when I was 15, and have kept it off
18. I lost that weight because I was mad that I didn't get the part of Juliette in the middle school's school play, even though my audition got a standing ovation and I was obviously the better actress; the part went to a really skinny girl who didn't even show up to rehearsals
19. My junior year I was the lead in our high school's school play "The Man Who Came to Dinner. I played Maggie Cutler.
20. I married an extremely sweet and smart man who goes out of his way for me every day
21. I have a rooster themed kitchen
22. Kent and I tacked up the only pair of drapes you'll see hanging in our apartment (yes, with thumb tacks)
23. I can't sew on a button - I'm that bad
24. I'd love to learn how to quilt
25. My favorite beauty products are the "Benefit" brand, and you can only get them in Utah by ordering them online or through the mail. So everytime Kent and I go to Chicago, I stop by the Benefit counter at Macy's.

I tag Debbie, Cherilyn, Rachel, Vanessa, and Shalise.

  1. While I did know a lot about you before, I did learn a little more. I wish I lived closer because I would love to quilt with you. Hope things are going well!

  2. I remember going to that play when Dale & I were first dating and thinking how funny it was that you were sitting on the piano bench next to that boy and playing the piano when he was pretending too because it was suppose to be him.
