- I was a 2nd and 3rd grade teacher before I had my children. I loved teaching but hated the paperwork and other stuff that went along with teaching.
- When I was a toddler I got a fish bone stuck in my throat and I had to have a specialist in the ER remove it.
- I have 1 tattoo. It is on my shoulder and it is a heart with the Japanese symbol for teacher inside. I want to get another one to symbolize my children but I haven’t decided what or where yet.
- It’s a horrible habit but I bite my nails. Even when I try to stop biting my nails, they are so weak and they break. I like wearing acrylic nails because I hate the way my chewed nails look.
- I still sleep with a bear that I’ve had since childhood. It’s more about putting my arm around something than the bear itself though so I can use a pillow to hug instead.
- I have fibromyalgia so I am tired and achy a lot. It took a long time to be diagnosed but once I was, it was such a relief to know that I wasn’t crazy!
- I love sushi! One of my goals on my bucket list is to learn how to make it at home.
- I was on Judge Judy. I sued an ex who owed me money. She shushed me once but I won my case!
- I love popcorn. I could totally pass up a dessert but put popcorn in front of me and it will be gone.
- My favorite artist is Romero Britto. I love his work! I met him once and he kissed my cheek. My girls went home and told Daddy that some man kissed Mommy. LOL
