Me, myself & I-- the unusual blog about Me...

I was emailing a friend the other day who had asked how they should describe me, if you've ever had to answer this about yourself you will soon find it really is not easy. Or maybe I'm just complicated, but I surely canot be summed up in one word. I have spent a lot of my life being misunderstood, so I thought I'd do an unusual blog about myself.


  • I am very hard to read, or so I'm told.
  • People mis-interupt my quietness for snottiness, when people first meet me they either love me or hate me. Often people tell me later, I really did not like you when I first met you... (Oh thanks- lol!)
  • I am crazy analytical, I will over analysis everything!!!
  • I love fashion but I am not a girl who will ever carry a coach purse, or live in an oversized home, I have no shame in resale or garage sales, I love finding a good deal. 
  • I clip coupons & debate over spending $5 on things I don't really need.
  • I will never use a credit card. Cash only.
  • I have no desire to "keep up with the jones's" I'm perfectly content being a Courtney ;)
  • I love being a mom & wife more then anything in this world- when I became a mom everything in my world came into perfect harmony.
  • Music & Drama makes me come alive
  • Singing frees my heart. “People haven’t always been there for me but music always has.” Swift
  • I am an artsy fartsy to the core.
  • I love having friends but also totally love being alone.
  • My guilty pleasures are starbucks, sweet tea, fried zuchinni, & pizza (could eat it everyday). 
  • I am totally neurotic & have irrational fears (jason can fill you in if you really wanna know)
  • I am not good with words unless I am writing them.
  • I can sing in front of thousands of people & not bat an eye but if I have to speak I'd rather die!
  • I am a goodie-too-shoes.
  • Don't smoke, don't drink, don't cuss. And have no desire to start!
  • I'd rather have 1 BEST friend than 50 fake friends.
  • Most days my house is messy, I'm wearing sweats, no make up, BUT my home is filled with laughter & fun.
  • I am overly cautious with what I let come out of my mouth, I never want to cause anyone pain by what I speak.
  • I hate being put on the spot. I need time to process my thoughts.
  • I love craft fairs
  • I love the park & the zoo
  • I am totally impulsive
  • I am a perfectionist to my detriment
  • Yellow makes everything look better
  • Decorating, Reading blogs & watching the cooking channel are my fav pass time
  • I stink at initiating conversations, but really I'd love to talk to you
  • I cannot bake anything but pies & brownies but I LOVE to cook
  • I hate waking up early but I also hate staying up late, combined they are just horrible! I need sleep to be a nice person
  • I love rainy days
  • My life can be summed up in Taylor Swifts last album -- every song is dedicated to someone in my life, don't worry I won't share. ;)
  • I only like breakfast for dinner & I usually eat dinner for breakfast
  • My favorite number is 9
  • I've only dated guys who's names start with the letter J-- I have no idea why?!
  • Small things give me anxiety (ex. calling the insurance co., or taking my car for a oil change) Big things are a breeze, I stay cool calm & collected.
  • I'm addicted to pictures because I have a horrible long term memory
  • I do believe in love at 1st sight.
  • I have a really corny sense of humor (this ones for you Court!) ;)


   I don't think that being a strong person is about ignoring your emotions and fighting your feelings. Putting on a brave face doesn't mean you're a brave person. That's why everybody in my life knows everything that I'm going through. I can't hide anything from them. People need to realize that being open isn't the same as being weak.
