Happy Birthday to me!
Happy Birthday to me!
Happy Birthday to meeeee!
Happy Birthday to me! :)
So... I let a lot of blog award acknowledgements escape me way back a few months ago when I had my surgery! I decided that today I would list 33 things about myself that you may not already know! I always enjoy reading these lists about other people (that usually go along with some of the blog awards) so I thought... why not! It's my birthday... I can do what I want! :)
Disclaimer... not all of these things will be things that I am 'proud of' but they are telling of who I am or progress that I have made! ha
1. I played sports my whole life up until my first semester of college.
2. I was voted Most Athletic my Senior year of High School.
3. I had a fracture of the spine my Senior year.
4. I played basketball for a local college for a little while my Freshman year.
5. I quit... I hated it.
6. I hate people telling me what to do.
7. I got in a lot of trouble as a teenager.
8. I got into several fights as a teenager. Actual physical fights.
9. Most of those fights were caused by taking up for myself or my friends.
10. I was engaged at 19 and married at 21.
11. I was engaged after only 2 months of dating.
12. For several years we had a motorcycle.
13. Sometimes I miss having a motorcycle... let me clarify... I miss having a Harley! :)
14. I have a bachelors degree in Psychology.
15. My first job... post college... was as a Case Manager at a local mental health clinic. Interesting to say the least!
16. My second job was as a Benefits Administrator at LifeWay Christian Resources.
17. My very first job that I had... I had for 5 years and it was working at Mrs. Winners (a fast food chicken place).
18. I guess I will tell you about my only other job in between that and finishing college... it was as a Traffic Assistant at Performance Food Group.
19. I am terrified of public speaking.
20. If I were to move away... I would want to move to California.
21. I am ashamed at the amount of crafty stuff that I own.
22. My #2 dream job would be to create everyday and get paid for it.
23. I live my #1 dream job!
24. I hate hate hate drama and I hate it even more when I seem to create it myself.
25. I don't hang out with a lot of women because of the fact that I hate drama!
26. I am a loner and very independent... always have been.
27. I drive fast... I like to drive fast... I drive better at a faster rate of speed!
28. I bite my fingernails.
29. I bite my toenails (ha ha... just kidding... just seeing if you are paying attention)...
29. I am anti-social as often as I can be.
30. I have a very small tattoo of a cross on the inside of my right ankle.
31. I got that tattoo on my Senior trip.
32. I have gone through a bout with depression before. That's what working in Mental Health and getting married as a baby can do for you! :)
33. I sometimes think I could still benefit from some medicine! :) Can I get an Amen?
Okay... so I am not as sweet as you might think, huh? :)
Well... if you stuck around... Thanks! :) I had a hard time thinking of things which is unlike me because I am always so chatty!
I tried to think of things that you didn't already know... hopefully you already know the important things...
I am a Christian!
I love my family!
I love my church family!
I love you guys!
I am blessed! :)
Peace and Love! Have a great day on 'my day'! :)

Happy Happy Birthday, Kelley!! I hope you have a great day and an even better year! Love your 33 pic....too cute. :> And yes, I read the first #29, so I was indeed paying attention! :> lol Thanks for the shares....I read each and every one!

Oh, and I was just getting on to Chace about bitting his toenails tonight! So there really are people who do that! :)

Happy birthday, sweet girl! I will never see you now without remembering you are a tattooed biker chick! And I know what you mean about drama, but it does seem that our women's groups are good about less drama, thankfully! Love you, girl!
Happy Birthday Friend! I think I knew almost all of those. Well in a good way, I didn't think "Oh Kelley doesn't like people to tell her what to do." I don't like people telling me what to do either. Oh wait. I didn't know you hate drama so much. You would have hated my job for the last two months. :) But I do hate it too. Rambling. Happy Happy Birthday Friend.
Happy Birthday to you Kelly I hope you have a fabulous day!!!!!!
Happy Birthday...a little late! I enjoyed reading more about you. Since I'm new to your blog it was all stuff I didn't know. What I like most about your list is that you are keeping it real!
Hope you have an amazing 33rd year!
Happy, happy birthday, my sweet friend! (Yes, I'll still call you sweet even after knowing the "truth" about you!) Read them all. Love you even more. (Glad you aren't a toenail biter, though -- that may have been the straw that broke the camel's back. haha) Love you, girl! Have a fabulous day!!
Happy birthday Kelley! I hope you have a great day AND a great year. Neat list - lots of stuff I didn't know about you. :)

#32 cracked me up cause I can TOTALLY relate (well without baby so far) - working in mental health as a therapist took a HUGE toll on my own mental health. lets just say i am a much better wife and friend, out side of that field... whoops!
