Day 23

Something I crave A LOT!
I have never been a candy or sweets person, they are good from time to time. But I have a special place in my heart and my belly for CARBS! MMMM I cant get enough.....
This brings me to Olive Garden bread sticks and salad! I could eat this everyday for lunch dinner and desert, its so good!


..... aaaannnd more Carbs- Soft Mall Pretzels =] Not the kind you get at sporting events or the movies- those ones are too hard and salty. Mall pretzels (PretzelMaker or Pretzel Time) are soft and have just the right amount of salt and butter. haha as you can tell I am pretty passionate about my pretzels!

Day 22

What makes me different then everyone else!
Well I cant promise these things will be different than everybody in the whole world, but I think different than most I know :)
  • I am SO scared of scary movies- I can't even watch the TV Commercials, I have to change the channel.
  • I like the smell of hay
  • I cant tell a story without my using hands or making sound effects
  • I never do my makeup the exact same way twice- I have like 25 different eye shadows and I can never remember how to do it the same as the last time.
  • I don't know my favorite color
  • I cut the tags out of all of my clothes, they freak me out!
  • I hate the smell of girl deodorant
  • I sniff everything before I eat it
  • I don't know my real hair color!
  • I am really afraid of swimming with fish- I just know one of them is going to bite me. Or they are going to attract a shark and the shark will eat me! haha

There you go! PS I don't know if i have mentioned this or not- but I think I am ready for this 30 days thing to be over! haha its fun reading everyone elses posts but its hard blogging every single day!

Day 20

Someone I see myself marrying :)
Well, this has been the easiest post so far... Say Hello to Mr. & Mrs. Ford!

I know this sounds silly and totally cheesy but I pretty much knew I was going to marry Garrett since I was 16 years old! We have been two peas in a pod and connected at the hip since day one and I love him so much! More and more everyday =]

Day 19

Nicknames I have and why :)
Lis- haha this one should be pretty self explanatory. Just a little short version of my real name. Austin is the main person who calls me this :)
Weeze or Weezer- I literally have no idea where this one came from! I just remember my dad calling me this for as long as I can remember. Haha but my dad comes up with the craziest crap, so there probably is really no explanation behind it! :) And for whatever reason he named Aus Cheeser. So we are weezer and cheeser.
Bubbie- This one is owned entirely by my mom. This was her nickname for me from birth, and she has never stopped using it to this day! The craziest thing is Garrett's mom has also called him this since day 1 too! Weird? I think so!
Babe, Baby, Honey, Manooge- Garrett simultaneously calls me these names plus a million others that I cant think of now. I never actually hear him say Lisa, unless something is wrong! haha I love it!

Day 18

Plans, Dreams, Goals I have :)
When I was a little younger most of my plans, dreams and goals were based around materialistic things. Like winning the lottery, having the biggest house with the nicest cars, and a closet full of designer clothes. But in the past few years my dreams and priority's are based more around family, happiness and good health. .... well and maybe a couple things from the list above! :)
Plans/Goals:
  • Be out of our apartment and into our house by December.
  • Finish most of the basement renovations by spring.
  • Start seriously planning for our retirement and setting up a Roth IRA account
  • Start building a very strong savings for future baby planning :)
  • Get out of Garretts car
  • Start planning for Christmas!
  • Start a new Holiday Tradition for our own little family unit :)

Dreams:

  • Maintain a happy and healthy life until the day Garrett and I both die (I have decided now that Garrett and I will be going out "The Notebook style")
  • Have a little family of 4 by age 27
  • Be able to help out someone in need in a major way
  • Have my kids grow up in the same school system from Kindergarten to Graduation.
  • Travel the world with my family
  • Help our parents retire comfortably one day

Day 17


Someone I would want to switch lives with for 1 day and why =]

I would want to switch lives with Jack Jonson. This year he is on tour for his most recent Album. And 100% of his profits are going to charity, he has been doing this for the past 3 ears. I think that is so amazing! Just think of 3 years worth of world tours, imagine how much money that must be. Millions and Millions! I would absolutely LOVE to have the money to just give it all away to people who need it way more than I do. I love the feeling that comes with being able to give to others, I think its one of the best feelings in the world!
Plus who wouldn't want to be a Pro Surfer/ famous singer - who lives in Hawaii and plays the guitar all the time? I would!
