My birthday always falls within a few days of Mother’s Day.
Kinda like being born the week of Christmas, sometimes I feel like I get cheated out of a normal birthday week. 🤷♀️
On the other hand, the second weekend of May is almost always the best weekend of the season!
This year, in 2019, my birthday is the day before Mother’s Day. So in our family, the whole weekend is dedicated to me!
In honor of my 34th birthday, I’m listing 34 fun facts about myself.
34 Things You Probably Didn’t Know About Me
1.) As an only child, I always knew I wanted to have multiple children.
2.) I have 4 kids, ages 10, 6, 4, and 2.
3.) I HATE coffee.
4.) But I LOVE hot vanilla chai tea lattes.
5.) I’ve never had a credit card.
6.) For the past week, I’ve been saying that I’m turning 35 years old. But I just realized that I’m only 34! I guess it’s true what they say – the older you get, the more you forget your age.
7.) I haven’t remembered a single dream in over 15 years.😴
8.) I refuse to kill bugs because the “squish” feeling grosses me out. 🕷
9.) I wanted to be a veterinarian when I grew up. I changed my mind because I’m so sensitive that I wouldn’t be able to handle watching any animal pass away.
10.) I swam competitively when I was in high school. 🏊♀️
11.) I have 0 tattoos. Not because I don’t want one. Because I have never been able to decide what to get.
12.) I have 5 piercings in each ear. But I only wear earrings in the first 2 holes.
13.) I’ve never tried sushi and I probably never will.
14.) I don’t like trying new things. Even something as simple as a new board game… I will always resort to what’s comfortable.
15.) I was a Girl Scout for 13 years. And I loved it.
15.) I still have 75% of all of my childhood stuffed animals.
16.) My voice is comparable to Fran Dresher’s from The Nanny. ⬅ It’s true! 🤣
17.) I can’t whistle.
18.) I have loved The Golden Girls ever since I was a little girl. My mom and I used to watch it together when I was in elementary school.
19.) My favorite Disney Movie is The Little Mermaid.
20.) My all-time favorite movie is The Labyrinth.
21.) My family and I eat Mexican and Italian food multiple times a week. And chicken nuggets.
22.) I’m ALWAYS cold. When I first wake up, I can be found sitting in front of a portable heater, even when it’s 90 degrees outside.
23.) I hate the summer and wish it were cold year-round.
24.) I would love for Christmastime to last about a month longer than the socially acceptable time period.
25.) I’m a Samsung fan all the way. Every appliance I own is from Samsung.
26.) I’ve never been able to carry a tune, but that doesn’t stop me from rocking out in the car. 🎶
27.) My favorite music is classic rock from the 60s, 70s, and 80s. 🤘
28.) I love stationery – notebooks, planners, journals, pens, colored pencils, all of it! 📃
29.) I talk a lot! Sometimes too much.
30.) I’m overly nostalgic.
31.) I cried almost every day during my last week of high school.
32.) My favorite thing to wear is jeans, a cardigan, and a plain colored tank top.
33.) I have naturally curly hair that can be defined as “perfect spiral curls”, but I almost always straighten it. I’m a natural redhead – more like a “carrot top”. The older I get, it turns more “strawberry blonde”.
34.) I’m passionate, fiery, and short-tempered. It comes with the territory of being a redhead.
So there you have it. 34 facts about me in honor of my 34th birthday. 🥳
