Waiting to teach...Ready to learn - Tag I'm "IT"...you are next!

Tag, You're It

I've been tagged! Becky Joie is the culpritt! I will have to play the game and tag three other people! HMMM. If I mention your name on the last paragraph that means I've tagged you, and you too will need to answer these questions below. Here we go:

Accent: I don't consider myself as having one most of the time....but it comes out (I've been told) when I'm angry. I am however terrible at them; (when immitating others)!
Booze of Choice: I too ask myself: Who wrote these questions? Obviously they don't know me either, Becky Joie....I've never had a sip of anything stronger than (Non-alcoholic) apple cider.
Chores I Hate: All of them!....But they have to get done!
Dog or Cat: dogs and fish...though I have none...yet...LOL

Essential Electronics: Computer
Favorite Cologne: Whichever my husband wears...I don't know what it is called.

Gold or Silver: OF COURSE Silver... ;) LOL
Hometown: Well....does the entire Central Florida region count?...Presently I'm not sure what the correct answer to this would be...I'm kind of in between places now....I have lived in at least 6 different Central Florida cities so far though

Insomnia: Not often....I usually sleep like a log

Job Title(s): Director of Business Services, volunteer Youth worker
Kids: I loooove kids...though I have none of my own yet...although...this question is not specific...the Bible says:

       "Sing, O barren woman,
       you who never bore a child;
       burst into song, shout for joy,
       you who were never in labor;
       because more are the children of the desolate woman
       than of her who has a husband,"
       says the LORD. Isaiah 54:1 (New International Version)

So, I guess by these standards....I have many! I help teach Sunday School and have for about 6 years...through which I have been a part of the biblical up-bringing of many children...(sort of the way a mother would)...I'm affectionately known by not only my own nieces and nephews...but by other...'close-as-family-friends'- ...own children as "auntie Lyssie"...Of these friends it is fair to point out that usually there are about 8-9 of my friends/family that are usually pregnant at the same time as each other! Talk about immersion! Hence my username being AuntieLyssie here. That's why the title of my blog is "waiting to teach...ready to learn"...I count this time as a preparation time. :)

Living Arrangements: with some very gracious friends at the moment....trying to figure out what God will provide for tomorrow.

Most Admired Trait: I'm not too sure...but I know I looove to be creative...that's usually what I hear from people around me...BeckyJoie if you are reading this know that you have many talents and they are too many to count even though I only met you a few months ago!...every day I find more! :)

Overnight Hospital Stays: None yet for me...Hopefully none ever.

Phobia(s): I'm a total scardy cat! I am a person that needs to learn to give all my worries and my fears to God....I am afraid of death...I'm afraid of heights and speed at the same time (meaning=rollercoasters...Not afraid of standing in a high up balcony...though it might make me a little dizzy...but am afraid of falling from a high place...hence the combination of the two fears)
Quote: my favorite quotes are in the bible...I love it when God says: "I AM"

It means so much to me just in those 2 little words...perhaps I'll write about it sometime...However, I love this quote that Pastor Kenny said at a recent bible study...."<God will> use the best possible means to achieve the best possible results, for the most possible people, for the longest possible time”.

Religion: I don't like that word...I do however loooove Jesus Christ and He is my saviour...the Son of God and in that Trininty (that is described by the Bible as the only God source that is true)... I rest.....I guess that would make me a Born-again or evangelical-SOLD OUT-Bible-believing Christian!...Then so be it, and darn proud of HIM who made me that...by showing me HIS truth in my heart!
Siblings: 2 older brothers (from my dad's first marriage and one younger sister who is a woman now and has a family too!
Time I wake up: last possible moment and you can definately tell that if I'd had my choice in it...I would have rather not woken up yet. :)
Unusual Talent/Skill: I'm not sure what this would be....I'll have to think about it.
Veggies I Refuse to eat: certain onions, brussel sprouts and asparagus

Worst Habit: being sarcastic and hurting someone's feelings...being opinionated...tapping on things...singing or humming at inapropriate times...(man...I didn't realize it but I have a lot of these...better stop right here before I get depressed about all my faults)... :(
Yummiest Food I Make: My husband loooves my nachos...and swedish meatballs (not really "mine" though...Thanks Lara!)...I love experimenting with recipes...but I don't usually have ample time to play around or cook many different things.
Zodiac Sign: I don't belive in the Zodiac....but in the world...people have told me that I'm a Taurus.

Biggest Pet peaves: lying politicians...people who make fun of Christianity....someone who won't listen...mean people...dogs that are too hyper....people that are too negative and on a constant basis.

Who to tag back? Elizabeth, Veronica, Mishele? Anyone who doesn't have a blog but wants to post their answers here.

Lyssie has lots of good traits. She's fun-loving, friendly, kind, creative, smart, godly, spiritual, brave, patient, supportive, strong, a god friend and gracious. I'm sure there's more but I only met her last October so these are some of her traits I know. :>)

Thank you for the link to your blog again... I enjoy reading it. I have officially added you to my favorites now so that I don't lose you again... lol!

Much Love,
Veronica
