25 Things at Perfectly Imperfect

1.
I hate leaving my dog in the morning to go to work. 
She sits on a ledge in front of a window and watches me leave.
It breaks my heart. :o(
2.
I’m struggling with what to have for dinner.
Every day.
3.
I miss my kids.
4.
I want to take the carpet off my steps
but am afraid I won’t be able to do it myself.
So I’m hesitating…
5.
Today’s my dad’s birthday.
Happy Birthday Dad!
6.
I’ve never done this “25 things” thing before.
It’s kinda hard.
7.
I’m obsessed with Downton Abbey.
8.
I can’t figure out Google+.
I’m totally lost and feel like an idiot.
9.
I doubt my ability (on a daily basis) to keep
up with my blog.
10.
I have not lost the 5 lbs. I gained in December.
11. 
I finally cleaned and organized my little sewing corner.
I feel so much better.
12.
I really want to be snowed in for a few days.
13.
But I do not want to lose power.
14.
I would not have made a good pioneer.
Can you see me on the wagon train?
15.
I have a Special K Chocolatey Pretzel bar
every day for breakfast.
90 calories.
16.
Have I mentioned that I miss my kids?
17.
I avoid going to funerals unless
there is absolutely no way I can get out of it.
18.
I need a pedicure.
Bad.
19.
I’m in a lottery pool with several co-workers.
20.
So far we are still waiting on our big win.
21.
This past June I wore a dress for 
the first time in 12 years.
22.
I have a crush on George Stephanopoulos.
23.
My crush used to be Anderson Cooper.
I’ve moved on.
24.
I wish I knew more about graphic design.
25. 
I really didn’t think I could do this.
It was challenging but fun.
Thanks Shaunna for hosting!

    Oh my…I love Downton Abbey too! We missed recording the first episode and now I have to wait for my SIL to catch up on last season so she can tell us what happened in the first episode THIS season! We refuse to watch until we know what happened…LOL
    I love this list idea….how long is it going on?

    This is a fun post…I liked learning more about you! I have missed Downton Abbey and am regretting it. Hope I can pick up on it. And I, too, would like some snow days!

    XO,

    And you did a great job. I liked your list, and even nodded in agreement on a few of them, however, my foggy brain can't remember which ones now. Oh, definitely the Google Plus one. I feel the same way.

  18. 18

    Downton Abbey, missing my kids, hanging on to those Christmas pounds – we have a lot in common!

    I am crazy for downtown abbey. So happy I'm not alone. I wish it would never end.

    DownTheLaneWithDaisy says:

    An additional note. Go to PBS.org and play all this seasons episodes on your computer if it plays videos well. I've been watching it on my ipad2, one of the greatest inventions ever. Also, check out Hulu.com for thousands of free tv shows, movies, etc? I've almost stopped watching television. I certainly don't miss the long commercials!

    I love these posts :0) Free form writing at its best.

    There's nothing wrong with a bit of Downton Abbey obsession.

    So interesting. I haven't lost the 5 lbs I gained over Christmas either – what's up with that. I think I'll give up chocolate for lent to help the situation out. sigh.

  29. 29

    I avoid funerals and miss my kids, too. It was fun learning more about you.
    Hugs, Cindy

  30. 30

    Ann, are you sure we aren't related? :) I'm counting the hours until tonight's Downton Abbey episode. Great list. I don't think I could think of 25 things.

So...tell me what YOU think!
