When I shared with the Facebook world that I wasn’t going to be on there for a year, I was shocked to find a theme among many of the comments: Fun Fact Fridays.
I had no idea, but many of my friends and family enjoyed my weekly “Fun Fact Friday” posts. On Fridays, I would share random “fun facts” about myself. Sometimes they were silly or practical, involved childhood memories, or listed various things I liked or disliked. They were always meant to be engaging (maybe we’re exactly the same or polar opposites!) and also to help others catch a little glimpse into my life.
Earlier this week, it dawned on me, I can do Fun Fact Fridays on the blog!
So, here is my very first Fun Fact Friday list for the 2017 year, enjoy!
- I like chewing gum, especially the minty flavors.
- When I was little, I had more fun setting up the Barbie’s house, clothes, furniture and hair, than actually playing with the Barbies (talking for them, creating stories and scenarios, etc.).
- I had Bell’s Palsy when I was 9 years old. It lasted for about 4-5 weeks.
- I love eating Grape Nuts, especially when they are extra crunchy, drowning in milk, and with a sprinkle of sugar on top. I try to eat them quickly so they don’t get soggy.
- I know it’s a common fear, but I really do not enjoy heights. Watching people stand on the edges of cliffs, bridges and buildings freaks me out. My heart starts to race and have a strong urge to grab them before they fall.
- Unknowingly in the moment, I will stare at people when I am really thinking or processing something. My kids can tell when I am writing/typing something of value if I blankly stare at any one of them without saying anything. haha!
- Even though we live in a warmer climate, my hands and feet are often cold.
- Dove milk chocolate is my favorite chocolate. So smooth and creamy.
