   Well, 7 things I *want* people to know about me – that’s hard! Your comments got me thinking, so some will be similar:

   1. I work best under pressure. Often wait until the last minute to actually DO things I’ve pre-planned in my head.
   2. I did a lot of traveling when I was young. I’ve been to 48 states by the time I was 10. I’ve still only been to 48 states & I’m considerably older than 10!
   3. I have no OCD. My house is a mess. I’ve (almost) stopped apologizing for its state. There are so many more important things to do than clean. I do appreciate it clean, it just takes visitors arriving to get me to actually tidy up. (Bathrooms are clean & kitchen – don’t like germs)
   4. I like to be on the go a lot and am always packing a bag of things to take with me. I’m the ultimate Boy Scout (“Be Prepared”). BUT, I hate un-packing bags & suitcases when I return – hence the mess that surrounds me – bags & bags of stuff.
   5. I’m a sucker for the clearance aisle – anywhere!
   6. I love to read. I *must* have something to read with me everywhere I go. I panic if I think I’ll have to wait somewhere and not have something to read.
   7. I get sentimental about strange things. I have a Clic eraser from when I was in high school that I still use when scrapbooking. I have a typewriter (remember those things!?) eraser that I used in Jr. High that was touched by a boy a liked back then and I have saved it in a box. Kind of kooky stuff like that.
   There you go – more than you ever wanted to know about me!!

   1. I’m almost as tall as Lauren! There are not too many women I can say that about – I am always the tallest (since 6th grade!) I am 5′ 9 1/2″ tall, as are both of my sisters!

   2. I have 3 boys (if you don’t count my husband, lol!) and they really keep me hoppin’! Mitchell is 12, going on 22, Adam is 9, and Mark is 7.

   3. I have been a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator since 2002.

   4. With 3 boys, I SHOULD be OCD when it comes to cleaning, but I so am not!

   5. I AM OCD about my stamping, though. Has to be awesome, “knock their socks off”, and perfect.

   6.I love seafood – especially crab, shrimp and scallops, and mexican food from La Fuente (Milwaukee’s best mexican food restauraunt) although I will try any mexican food, lol!

   7.I am also a compulsive shopper, but I have been trying to curb the online shopping, since I AM NOT on a design team (though I would love to be) and try to stick with Stampin’ Up! products so I can use them in my business.

   That’s just a glimpse of me! I’ll enjoy reading about everyone!

9. Nicole Ireland April 27th, 2007 at 12:46 pm 9

   Do you really want to know??
   1. I have s*x for money (but only with my hubby) :)(sorry Lauren, not trying to turn your blog into a Jerry Springer show)
   2. I love my 2 daughters (3 & 8) and would do anything for them. (who wouldn’t?)
   3. I have a bit of OCD too, I have to check to make sure the oven is off & no monsters in the closet before bed (husband thinks I’m nuts) and some things need to be “just so”
   4. I love to organize everything!!! and then reorganize!! (love Mission Organization baby!)
   5. In July I will celebrate my 10th wedding anniversary. (married in 1997 dated since 1993)
   6. I am such a “sap” and cry over Extreme Makeover home addition each and every week.
   7. I am a stamping addict but find it difficult to actually use the stuff. I love to Splitcoast and blogs for inspiration.

10. Geny April 27th, 2007 at 12:48 pm 10

    So, I love your blog and love blog candy – even though I have never won. My 7 things are:
    1. I have a highly boring job so I get to read blogs ALOT – sometimes all day.
    2. I have a degree in Mechanical Engineering that I have never really “used” and I didn’t really enjoy getting it that much.
    3. I have a 3.5 year old son who is the best and my job allows me more time with him than if I tried to get a super stressful, higher paying job.
    4. I LOVE stamping and papercrafting and would someday love to be published, sell my cards, or be on a design team.
    5. I had another child, Madison, who passed away at 15 days (she was a full term baby) after having open heart surgery from a congenital heart defect. She was perfect in every way and I miss her so much.
    6. There are five kids in our family, I am the oldest at 30 and my twin sisters are the youngest at 20.
    7. I have never had a cup of coffee, but I do enjoy mochas now and then.

12. Colleen April 27th, 2007 at 1:01 pm 12

    i’ll play…
    1. I am a dwarf…(proportional). My juniors were working on a research project and one of my students said, “Mrs, Schaan…you are a dwarf.” to which I replied, “No…I’m just really short.” but she showed me the numbers…yup…I’m a dwarf! (4’10”) I could have gotten $ to help pay for college!!!!
    2. I am addicted to Diet Pepsi…tried to quit…nope, not happening.
    3. I have never wanted children of my own…I like kids, just never had that “mother” instinct…good thing too, hubby said I make a lousy caretaker!
    4. We have lived in 5 states in the last 13 years…we move a lot…nope, not military either.
    5. I have two cats and two dogs…I LOVE animals!
    6. My husband does all of my clothes shopping for me…he does a great job too.
    7. It is my dream to travel to Greece and then rent a huge sailboat and sail around!

    thanks for the tag!

13. Jackie in NC April 27th, 2007 at 1:05 pm 13

    1. I am a shopaholic, too. Sometimes I wonder if it isn’t more about the shopping than the creating!
    2. I met my husband online 12 years ago.
    3. My daughter resembles Sandra Bullock – and I’m not the only one that thinks so!
    4. I spend way too much time browsing blogs and not enough time creating. And making more lists of things I “need”.
    5. I don’t like cooking, although I do enjoy eating – a little too much at times.
    6. We got married in a bona fide castle (not the Castillo either) in St. Augustine – it was very romantic.
    7. I am a HUGE procrastinator – why do it now if I can put it off until the last hairy second and work like a fiend???

19. Sharon Walker April 27th, 2007 at 3:42 pm 19

    Hi Lauren!

    What a fun game! I have enjoyed reading everyone’e replies. Here are mine:

    1–I wait til the last minute to get things done, too! Drives my DH crazy. My DS is like that, too.

    2–I grew up in Ghana, West Africa–my dad was a missionary doctor. We were stationed way up north in the bush country, so I had to go away to school starting in 5th grade. That was a bummer! I did get to see a lot of Europe on our trips too and from the USA, and I didn’t appreciate it appropriately since I was so young. Wish I could go back to all those places now that I’m an adult!

    3–I have a touch of OCD, but unfortunately it doesn’t show at home! Starting when I was sent to boarding school, I fold and tear pieces of paper methodically until the squares are so tiny you can’t fold them anymore. I have never met anyone else that does this, LOL.

    4–My favorite things to do include shopping, eating, reading and doing sudoku.

    5–Stamping is my latest obsession. Before that it was collecting beanie babies! I am totally addicted to SCS–and am getting that way about some blogs, too!

    6–I love mexican food–heck, I love all food, sad to say!

    7–I am turning 50 years old Jan ’08, and I have stopped dyeing my hair because I was too lazy to keep it up. I am planning to buy a big red hat and something bright purple to wear. I am going to celebrate it in honor of my friends and family who didn’t make it to 50! (this is assuming I actually make it–God willing!)

    Looking forward to reading everyone elses lists!

    Sharon

20. doverdi April 27th, 2007 at 4:30 pm 20

    What a fun game. I didn’t think I’d have to do this since I don’t have a blog but here it goes:

    7 things about me

    1. I have a DS who is 21 and he is my pride & joy.
    2. I am addicted to stamping & scrapbooking which is tough since I can’t afford this hobby.
    3. I was in an auto accident 3 1/2 years ago and can no longer work. I am now left with a lot of chronic health issues from the accident that makes even doing the day to day things difficult. Stamping & scrapping is my sanity.
    4. I’m also addicted to reading and usually read 2 to 3 books a week.
    5. I had 3 cards published in the Feb & March issues of Vamp Stamp News.
    6. I have a dog & a cat that think they are humans. They have major “sibling rivalry” and even though the cat is 14 yrs and the dog is almost 13, they “hate” each other. The dog does not like the cat to come near me and she is so jealous if I pay attention to the cat (who was here first). In all these years, I don’t have a picture of the two of them together.
    7. I use to have a pet turtle that was a part of our family for 10 years. Unfortunately, the cat helped him escape and by the time I found him, he was dead. I still miss him.

21. Claudia F. April 27th, 2007 at 4:33 pm 21

    Hmm, 7 things? Ok, I have webbed toes, I love chocolate, I’ve been married for 27 years, we have 3 kids, I love the smell of fresh air, I’m addicted to scrapbooking, rubber stamping and cardmaking.
    Claudia F.

22. Bonnie aka raduse April 27th, 2007 at 6:30 pm 22

    Wow Lauren, you really opened yourself up. Seven things about me, hmmmm….

    1) I’ve been married for 15 1/2 yr’s to the same man. That’s quite an accomplishment for me since my mom was married 3 times and was divorced twice. One of those was really nasty..like have to get the cops involved. So I’m surprised I’ve stayed married as long as I have.

    2) My mom was my best friend. When she passed away 16 yrs ago, I lost my friend and confidante. We would have a blast over anything. 🙂

    3) I have 2 kids (DS,DD) and 4 fur-kids (cats).

    4) I’m a very anal person. Meaning, all the ‘I’s have to be dotted and “T”s crossed in the right place at the right time.

    5) Because I’m anal, I’m also my own worst critic when stamping or scrapbooking.

    6) I’m totally addicted to stamping and SCS. Get up in the morning and get online with a cup of tea to surf. It’s also the last thing I do before I go to bed.

    7) I totally love football. My DS and my DH think I’m strange because I can understand what they’re talking about and watching.

23. Jenn April 27th, 2007 at 6:35 pm 23

    Okay…I’ll play…

    1. I have six children, four boys and two girls.
    2. My four sons are from my first marriage.
    3. I am a Licensed Nurse Assistant.
    4. I am a Close To My Heart Consultant.
    5. My best friend lives in Oregon.
    6. My favorite campground is Moose Hillock.
    7. I am addicted to SCS and Lauren’s blog **wink**

24. Lynda April 27th, 2007 at 9:33 pm 24

    Hey, Lauren… I just found your blog today, it is great! I have admired your work on SCS for quite some time.

    Here are 7 things about me:

    1. I met my husband at a Christian rock concert. (Guardian)
    2. I have 4 children – 3 boys and a girl.
    3. I am a licensed daycare provider.
    4. I love swimming, waterskiing, and boating; I live just a few miles from Lake Michigan
    5. I was a Dutch dancer in high school; we performed at the Tulip Time festival.
    6. I am a chocoholic, but I *used* to be allergic to chocolate, thank goodness I outgrew that!
    7. I am a terrible housekeeper, I jump from one thing to the next, and nothing ever gets done!

26. lois lane April 27th, 2007 at 11:31 pm 26

    Seven things about me:

27. susan hatch April 28th, 2007 at 5:43 am 27

    1. I love girls (have 4) but wish I could have had more than 1 son who is absolutely adorable…and married.

    2. I’m old

    3. but way young in heart

    4. I have played the piano since I was 7 and have my grandfather’s grand piano. It’s a treasure in more ways than i can say.

    5. I am also Polish and always wanted to play the accordion since my friend..when I was about 9 had one and she had a “diamond” on one of the buttons. A few years ago, someone way older than me heard about it and gave me, GAVE ME, hers since she didn’t have the strength to use it anymore. Took lessons and bought another one.

    6. Now I have arthritis in my shoulders and elbows and moving the accordion bellows is getting more difficult (but oddly, I can still stamp) so I’ve decided to learn how to play the banjo…we own one cuz my husband wanted one and I bought him one…which is now collecting dust. No instrument of any kind should be caught collecting dust. Just furniture.

    7. I love to knit and this year I am knitting mittens to be donated to the local hospitals for all the children who arrive in the ER in the winter storms too poor to even own mittens. It’s been very heartwarming to do this. Plus, it was good practice to keep my fingers nimble.

    And by the way, love your blog. Susan Hatch

28. Lisa Henke April 28th, 2007 at 7:42 am 28

    Hi, Lauren. I love learning more about you, it helps see how you create wonderful things and where your inspiration might come from. Anyway, here are 7 things about me:
    1) I am a twin, but my twin brother and I are not close. sad I know, but we are very different people and have little in common. We were best of freinds when we were little, though
    2) I have three beautiful boys, and no we are not going to try for a girl
    3) I enjoy dark beer, porters are my favorite
    4) I am a ribbon addict, although I’m sure my stash isn’t as big as some
    5) I’m a TV addict, thanks to our DVR. I watch more shows than ever because I can record them and watch them later without the commercials. My favoirtes are The Bachelor, American Idol, General Hospital, and Greys Anatomoy is the tops!
    6) I love warm weather, hate winter, even though I have lived in the Midwest my whole life
    7) My first trip to the circus was when I was 28 years old!

    4) My biggest influence on improving my stamping – you guessed it – Lauren! You were the first person I pm’d about a card you had made that I found back in 2006. Since then, I’ve case’d quite a bit of your work for clubs and workshops (I give you credit and tell my customers to check out your gallery on SCS!) You’ve also gotten me to look outside SU! for great products to help improve my creativity!

    5) My goal in life now is to create something I think is worth submitting for publication. Heck, I just started my SCS gallery a few weeks ago.

    6) I’m addicted to 24, CSI (the original), and game shows

    7) I am a major procrastinator – will put off cleaning and preparing for workshops till the last minute!

    Oh dear, What do I want people to know about me?

    1) I’m grew up in Tulsa, Ok and would love to go back and live there again. Maybe when DH retires.

    2) I’ve been married for almost 9 years to my hunky Marine and we have 2 super cute boys

    3) Today a highschool (wearing his baseball uniform) boy smiled and winked at me. It was better than being asked for ID. I just smiled back. He doesn’t need to know I’m old enough to be his mom. Hehehe. Who knew I still had it? Dh would be so proud.

    4) I’m afraid of rodents. I don’t even like squirrels and tell my kids not to feed the ones at the park.

    5) I suffer from chronic sarcsm.

    6) I had wavy hair until I had DS #1. Now it’s poker straight.

    7) I cannot function without caffeine.

    1. I am 5’9 but when I am around girls (not guys)
    that are taller than me, I feel about 2 inches tall!!!
    You would make me feel short!! My husband is only
    5’10 but all my kids are like 90-95% on their height!!

    2. I have an 8 year old son Ryan. I have triplets
    that are 4. Blake, Lauren and Sarah, who share their
    birthday with Elvis.

    3. My husband (Jason) and I eloped 12 years ago!! He
    is 3 years younger than me! And he is very funny and
    handsome.

    4. I used to be a travel agent and went to Hawaii for
    5 nights for only

    $150. (one of the many trips I took) Great deal but
    the job paid nothing. So I became a SAHM.

    5. From the age of 1-9 I lived overseas in Scotland,
    England and Norway. At 9 we moved back to Texas then
    California, then back to Texas. Then my junior year
    of high school we moved back to England for 1 year. I
    have many fond memories of that year and would love to
    live there now.

    6. I love flip-flops and going barefoot!! The
    barefoot part drives my husband crazy (not because he
    has a foot fetish, he thinks you should always wear
    shoes)

    7. I have a big sweet tooth. I love desserts and I
    have to have Coke in the morning. The real thing not
    diet or caffeine free!! I don’t do coffee.

    8. I know I was only suppose to put 7, but I had to
    mention, I don’t sleep with any pillows and I talk way
    too much. It also drives my husband crazy because I
    never stop talking!!!

    9. Oh, one last thing, I love to read, bake and cook,
    talk on the phone, crochet and work in my yard and
    stamp of course (cards only, scrapbooking is too time
    consuming for me)

    I just want to say I look at your blog everyday!! You
    so deserve to be in all these magazines!! You have
    really inspired me to stamp more. Thanks for your
    great blog!! Hope you and your family have a great
    weekend.

    I still owe your kidos cards and they will be coming
    shortly!! I didn’t forget them!!!!

    Hi! I love your blog! Glad you had a great time at Disney!!

    1. I teach fifth grade at a Christian school. I love my job!
    2. I love to read, especially non-fiction kinds of books. I really like things like Case for the Creator (Strobel), Super Baby Food, and The Maker’s Diet right now. I know, maybe I’m weird for all that. I love children’s books, too. 🙂
    3. I love to bake! If I left teaching, my dream would be to own my own bakery, specializing in cupcakes, sugar cookies, and treats.
    4. I have an almost-one-year-old. His name is Cameron and his birthday is this Tuesday, May 1!
    5. My favorite normal vacation place is Washington, D.C. (If I could pick anywhere to be, it would be Maui, but how often is that really going to happen?!?)
    6. I am addicted to patterned paper! I know….shocker! Most of us are, aren’t we?
    7. My favorite little new embellishment is Hero Arts’ sequins….if you haven’t picked some up, get ’em! They are SUPER fun!

    Hey Lauren –

    Good things to know! Thanks for sharing them with us….things about me….let’s see

    1 – I’m a GREAT procrastinator, whether it’s cleaning, preparing for a workshop, whatever, I work well under pressure, so I think that’s why I put things off until the last minute!

    2 – unfortunately, I tend to be a pessimist, and I have pretty low self esteem, but am trying daily to turn those things around! 🙂

    3 – I am a hopeless romantic, however, DH, is not, so sometimes I do get disappointed, but get over it, because he really is SO wonderful to me and DD

    4 – MUST HAVE COFFEE. I like to have a cocktail now and then, but I can not live without my coffee, I’m a java junkie!

    5 – My hair is in a horrible transitional phase right now…I had a few great cuts, and this last one…I’m not so happy with, so I’m growing it out, and hoping for the best…the color??? well, when I was a tot, it was strawberry blonde…loved it, then it lightened, and was sandy blonde, and has gotten darker, and darker, haven’t gotten it colored due to the pregnancy, but will once the baby arrives…

    6 – I have a TERRIFIC Mom and Dad! They are always helping us out in every way, and I’m SO lucky to have them

    7 – I love to watch my daughter sleep, and thank God every day for all of my blessings, family and friends!
