8 More Things About Me

by Tiffany in Tidbits

I was tagged for the 8 Things About Me meme again, this time by Activist Mommy.Remember the last eight things I told you about? Well,I do love to talk so it is not hard coming up with 8 more things. ;) Though I think I will borrow some things from the same meme I did over on my personal blog.�So here goes:

1. My earliest memories are of being in the front seat of race cars. Both my mom and dad were professional drag racers when they met and married.

2. I am a BIG time movie buff. New movies come out on Tuesdays and it is rare that I don�t buy at least one. I have over over 1500 DVDs. Right now I am going through an English classic phase�Sense and Sensibility, Emma, The Painted Veil, and every version of Pride and Prejudice I can get my hands on. Can you say consumer?

3. Two out of my three births were natural with no meds….the last two. I hated almost everything about being pregnant but I love being a mom.

4. I don’t immunize my children. Besides believing them to be horrible chemical cocktails that weaken developing immune systems my first child was also badly injured by one.Me at 18

5. I turned 30 last week.

6. I was a vegetarian for several years but ultimately decided it was not he healthiest way to eat for my family. Now we strike a balance with organic meat and dairy products and we limit them�but will never eliminate these from our diet.

7. My 9th wedding anniversary just passed and I forgot all about it….hubby is not too happy with me right now. We are hoping to make our 10th anniversary a kid free vacation and go someplace special. He wants Tahiti and I want San Francisco…although scuba diving, sailing, and little umbrella drinks doesn’t bad at all. ;)

8. I used to be a blonde…in fact many people used to call me Barbie girl. It was dirty blonde some months and then platinum the next. I dyed my hair brown when I got pregnant because I didn’t want to put chemicals on my skin while pregnant or breastfeeding. Lately I have been really tempted to go back to blonde even though I still hate all the chemicals.

Well, all this talk…my birthday, my anniversary, my blonde hair….it makes me nostalgic. So I dug up a picture of me from the past….I think I was around 18.

Thanks Activist Mommy for the tag!

    hey hot mama! happy belated 30th birthday hot stuff :) how’s it feel? does it have a feeling or is it just another birthday? I’m coming up on mine in a year.

    Nell, it has been kind of depressing actually, LOL. Leaving my twenties feels like I am leaving my youth behind. And there are still soooo many things I want to do and I have this nagging feeling that time is not on my side anymore. How pathetic is that?!

    I thought only men forget about the anniversary ;-) Afterall, men are not so bad.

    On a serious note, how does it go for you so far for #4? I am always hesitant when pediatricians start recommending new vaccines.

    Abel,

    LOL. Yeah you usually hear about guys doing that huh? Well, my hubby is the sentimental one and I am not. Kinda strange.

    The vaccinations has been a good decision for us. My other two kids have been VERY healthy as thei immune systems have been able to develop without interference. I have had no problems with Dotcors or schools either…although an old friend from Arizona is on public assistance and she gets hassled or denied services all the time.

    You even exclude the most common like chicken pox?

  • http://www.naturemoms.com Tiffany

    Yep. I WANT my children to get chicken pox and build up a natural immunity. I am on the look out for chicken pox parties where all the moms get together to infect their kids and makke sure they get it. LOL. Do a search for vaccine ingredients. You will be horrified by what they put in them…I know I was.

    Turning 30 was glorious for me…all that baggage of youth left behind! Free to be “me” without all the stress.

    And oh yes, Pride and Prejudice. I thought Keira was glorious, but then, oh then, there is the Six Hour BBC version with Colin Firth. It just doesn’t get any better.

    LIsa I have that version…it is rather yummy. LOL.
