I want to thank these fabulous bloggers for supporting me during my first 2 months of blogging:)  You all are the best!!  It was really hard to pick only 15 because I think that all my followers are stylish and wonderful!!

Now 7 things about myself???  What a hard thing to think and blog about.

1.  I'm a 6th grade reading teacher.  I've been teaching for 8 years and I love it.  I also love having my summers off.  I really am lucky to have such a great job with an awesome perk!

2.  I love to shop but I also tend to change my mind and return stuff often.  Some of my friends might say I'm an impulse shopper.  I blame it on the mirrors at the store.  Why do the clothes always look worse when I get home and try them on?

3.  I really enjoy making jewelry!  I haven't been doing it a lot lately so my goal for 2011 is to focus more on my jewelry making.  I would especially like to learn about PMC.

4.  I enjoy cooking but I hate grocery shopping so I don't cook elaborate meals.  I try to cook meals with less than 6 items so I don't have to buy very many ingredients.

5.  I have a major sweet tooth.  I try to eat healthy for the most part but I have to have something sweet to eat after every meal.

6.  I'm a pretty organized person.  Pretty much everything in my house and classroom have a specific place and it drives me crazy if things are not in where they belong.  I've spent time organizing my closets, cabinets, and laundry room.  The only thing I can't quite keep clean and organized is my car! I don't know what it is about my car but I can never seem to keep it clean.  I joke that I could probably survive a week in my car if I was stranded somewhere:)

7.  I'm totally addicted to watching HGTV and the DIY Network.  I love all the decorating and remodeling shows.  They've inspired me to do projects around the house I never would've done on my own.
