29 things I love about me

yah, it's my birthday - and keeping up with the tradition of listing the age in years of things I love about each family member who has a birthday - here's my list of 29 things I love about myself...(don't even GO there!! Just nod & smile, yes, I'm 29, SHUT UP!)

1 - I love that, even though the last 12 years have been bad hair years for me, I still manage to get out in public. I'm brave.
2 - my deodorant ROCKS - I can totally get nervous when I'm telling people how old I am - and the deodorant totally kicks up to high gear - never let 'em see me sweat.
3 - I rarely have to buy new shoes, 4 years in a row on my flip flops...and my running shoes, still look BRAND NEW (no, you're not allowed to snicker at that)
4 - I still fit into the same clothes I wore 7 years ago, I KNOW, "wow," right?
5 - I've caught up on laundry at least 15 times since Howie was born.
6 - I only have to shave once a week, fine blonde leg hair - (poor Kali gets HERS from her dad!)
7 - I'm not pregnant.
8 - I have a trophy husband.
9 - I get to watch reality TV smut in the middle of the night when ALMOST everyone else is sleeping (thanks, Coby)
10 - Haven't gotten hot flashes yet this late in my life. Phew.
11 - Haven't had my period in almost a year (oh YAH, I went there, I mean who WOULDN'T love that about themselves?)
12 - 5 out of 6 children think I'm pretty cool (the other thinks I'm warm milk)
13 - I don't do dishes on Saturdays.
14 - They're LAUGH LINES not CROWS FEET
15 - God highlights my hair - Grey's the new blonde, and cheaper, too.
16 - I'm not pregnant. Still. I *REALLY* like that about myself.
17 - I'm secure enough I don't HAVE to have the door shut when I tinkle. I don't get stage fright with little eyes watching me, either. SO THERE, BRYNN!
18 - I can nurse AND load the dishwasher at the same time.
19 - I "Killed the Metal" on Guitar Hero III level HARD. indeed.
20 - I haven't gotten in a fight with myself ALL DAY...woot woot!
21 - I can change a diaper with my eyes shut.
22 - I'm not pregnant.
23 - Just trying to take up space, I can't believe I have to think up 6 more things. Glad I'm not older.
25 - Even though I know how to count, I still have the ability to skip numbers without anyone knowing unless I bring it to their attention {cough, cough 24, cough cough)
26 - I have never folded to the pressure of those "get thin quick" infomercials. I have yet to see one whose theory is to stay away from M&Ms...
27 - I can still fit into my size 3 wedding dress.
28 - If you believe #27, then you'll believe I'm pregnant.
29 - I know how to effectively work a table saw, router, sander, chop saw, nail gun AND my HUSBAND.
