25 things or so..

This is a list I posted on facebook that I thought I would share here..
It's just a little insight into my world..

1. I am an avid scrapbooker who loves to scrap late at night when everyone else is asleep. My craft has aloud me to be creative and to teach others about the importance of preserving their memories for future generations.
2. I am a wife and mother who at times is not the nicest person to her family, but I know they will always love me and their arms will always be open :)
3. I love my job an an EMT..there are times that I dont love what comes with working with people in a very small space for 12 hours at a time, but I wouldn't want to do anything else! Saving Lives and caring for people is what it is all about!!
4.Step DD ~ Lindsey 11, DD's Faith 6, Emilee 18mths ~ I am truly blessed to have my children. I marvel at them every day and thank God for his gift of being their Mother. I also thank him for allowing me to be a part of my stepdaughter's life. I pray that I can be a good influence on her and help her to realize her potential.
5. I love God and welcomed him into my life on 12/27/1997..It has been a rocky road but through my trials I have learned that God will always be with me..
6. Family is the most important thing in my life. I cherish my time I have with them. I have lost a lot of loved ones in the last 10 years and realize the importance of letting family know how you feel about them!
7. In my early 20's I overdosed on pills. I felt very alone and was suffering from depression and lyme disease. I am much more compassionate now to those who suffer with mental illness or who are just troubled. You can't throw judgement on someone unless you have walked a mile in their shoes..I also learned just how precious life is..
8.I know what it is to be loved unconditionally. My first date with my husband was 7/4/00, we were engaged on 6/15/00 and married 11/03/01.. I could not imagine being with anyone else! Even through are rough times we have had since we married he shows me time and time again that with the Love we have and faith in God we can get through anything!!
9.I am afraid that fibromyalgia is slowly crippling me. As the years go on I can feel a difference in my body. As the pain and stiffness increases so does the weight. Exercising is painfull the muscle spasms increase.
10. I have worried since I was a child that my father is going to die. My grandfather died when I was 10 of a heart attack (His Dad) and since then I have seen in my dad the things that caused my grandfather's untimely death at 69. As the years creep by I am more afraid that my Dad wont live past 69..
11. In my 18 years in health care I have been witness to many people's passing. I feel privileged to be there the moment they see God..
12.I love ice hockey..so does my hubby..we have a rivalry going..He likes Pittsburg ( he played for their semi pro team) and I like Phila!
13. My husband got me hooked on Baseball!! Love the AC Surf!!
14. I am a part of a great scrapbooking community. We are christians from all over the world who have come together to share our love for God and faith booking.. Faithsisters.com
15. I love to cook...food network is on right now!! LOL
16. I don't have many female friends..But the ones I have know that I am always there for them!!

21. I am a teddy bear collector..not so much anymore but I have quite a few from my 25 years of collecting..
22. I pray everyday throughout the day for Everyone..patients who I know are not going to make it, hearses that drive by, friends who ask for prayers, my children, for hubby..
23. I adore my brother..Most days growing up I hated him but now he is the one I can always go to and has always been there for me..
