Not a Morning Person

1. Where did you meet your spouse and did you instantly know it was love?

We met at church--he was the new youth pastor and I was a church member (no scandal though, we didn't date until he moved to another church). And yes, I knew right away, I told our pastor's wife who was standing next to me that he was the man I was going to marry. He only took 3 years to convince....

2. What is your favorite room in your house?

The bathroom. I love taking hot baths. And the biggest bonus, is that it was a remodeled, finished space when we bought the house, no big projects to do. And I don't know how we ever made it without double sinks!

3. Can you wiggle your ears?

Nope and I can't roll my tongue or do any crazy double jointed stuff either.

4. What is your evening ritual?

Come home from work, straighten up the house (usually just dust, vacuum, and then unload dishes or start a load of laundry), fix dinner, and clean up from that. Then it varies, maybe take a bath and read a magazine or work on a little project, or surf and watch TV. Then I usually pack my lunch, lay out clothes for the next day, and go to bed. I know, boring, right? I am truly a creature of habit.

5. How many hours of sleep do you need to function?

This is a deceptive question--I can function on as little as 4 hours, but it won't be pleasant for those around me. On average, I get about 6 1/2 - 7 hours. I do get up as soon as the alarm goes off for the most part, but the Rev's bad habit of hitting the snooze button occasionally rubs off on me.

I am more of a night owl than a morning person.
