Random Me?

>> Tuesday, February 24, 2009


I did this thing on Facebook and thought I might post it here for y'all here. I combined a few things and added some more so here are 50 random things about me. (It took me days to think all of these up! )

1 I always feel bad doing these because they make me feel vain and self centered. However I love reading other peoples and turn about *is* fair play...

2 I love rocking chairs

3 I have VERY green eyes

4 It has always been a dream of mine to be a figure skater

5 I am not a big fan of food, I eat it when I am hungry, but not for the pleasure of eating.

6 I love maps and geography

7 When I grow up ;) it is a dream of mine to have a whole room in my house devoted to books. It will have books floor to ceiling on three walls and the fourth wall will face outside and big a glass/window wall.

8 I rarely get too hot in the summer and I freeze all winter.

9 I am very protective of my socks, and I take very good care of them :D

10 I am ambidextrous but I write primarily with my right hand. I can write just fine with my left though.

11 I am not a coffee drinker, nor a tea person. Wine, and beer never set too well with me and I like water...but my thing is milk. Whole, non-pasteurized, raw milk. I drink about a half a gallon, approximately, a day.

12 I have 12 pairs of shoes including my mud boots and Idiot shoes.

13 I am a night person. I get really tired from about 4:30 - 7:30 every evening but then I can be awake for hours and not be bothered. I do my best thinking then and it is really nice and quiet!

14 For as long as I can remember I was going to name my first born son Jonathan Mark. ( Emily and I even fought over it long ago, but I got the rights since I *did* think it up!)

15 My only real food weakness is mayonnaise and I like it on everything!

16 I can swim and dive

17 At the recommendation of a friend I just read "The Hobbit" for the first time. It was ummmm "Engaging"

18 I scratch my head when I am thinking

19 I love the rain

20 I hate cats

21 I have a Buck 119 and I use it to sharpen my pencils. ( Michael gave it to me for my 14th birthday)

"If you would judge of the lawfulness or the unlawfulness of pleasure, then take this simple rule: Whatever weakens your reason, impairs the tenderness of your conscience, obscures your sense of God, and takes off the relish of spiritual things--that to you is sin."
-Susannah Wesley

Music?

>> Thursday, February 5, 2009

I was met with a terrible realization yesterday. One of my favorite songs that I was promoting on my blog was sabotaged and a despicable song tacked on to the end. I removed the song and I am very sorry; anyone who heard it.

Doing Hard Things

>> Saturday, January 31, 2009


I did a hard thing today...

I retired 2 of my oldest and dearest members of my hooded sweatshirt collection. The blue one was very pretty (I thought) and very chic. It got all stained real quick though (someday I will master the art of eating without dropping food all over myself) The Green (and my by far most beloved sweatshirt of all time) was a hand-me-down that I caught before mom could throw it away. Mom hated the beautiful thing and I LOVED it. I wore it faithfully for 3 years. First the zipper pull broke, so I used a safety pin. Then the thing I pinned the safety pin to broke so I used my finger. Then the zipper stopped zipping, thankfully while it was zipped up! Then the bottom of the zipper split...
I kept it on the porch for good luck for about 6 months... but the dreaded day came today. I threw it out, both of them.
DO HARD THINGS!

*sniff*

Basically Sarah and I kinda used Mark and then dropped him :D poor boy!

The Great Snow Ball Fight

>> Wednesday, January 14, 2009

Hi, this is not Hillary, this is Trina her little sister, I am posting to show you what we have been up to while she is in AZ. On Sunday, we had a massive snow ball fight!!! It was us Hipps kids and most of the Wattermann kids.
We had a lot of fun!

Matthew, Rosie, Phillip, and me were sorta against the people on the other side of the fence, but it was mostly a free for all!
"Run Phillip, I am going to get you!

Now all on the same side of the fence, it is Matthew going to take over the world/yard with his snow balls!! Well that is about how it was!



Then the big kids went sledding! It was awesome. But we only had one sled, so we had to take turns!

We had a lot of fun, but I fell down in the snow so many times, that my clothes were soaked by the time we came in.

Girl fun!

This morning I removed all the nasty nail polish from my toe nails....While we killed time this afternoon, I debated whether or not to paint my nails before I left or leave them natural. After consulting three of my charming little sisters we decided that yes, I should paint them and I should paint theirs too!
About a half an hour of fun later and this is what you get:

New Years Resolutions.

>> Thursday, January 1, 2009


New years resolutions

1. Resolved, never to lose one moment of time; but improve it the most profitable way I possibly can.

2. Resolved, to live with all my might, while I do live.

3. Resolved, never to do anything, which I should be afraid to do, if it were the last hour of my life.

4. Resolved, if I take delight in it as a gratification of pride, or vanity, or on any such account, immediately to throw it by.

5. Resolved, never to do anything out of revenge.

6. Resolved, never to speak evil of anyone, so that it shall tend to his dishonor, more or less, upon no account except for some real good.

7. Resolved, to study the Scriptures so steadily, constantly and frequently, as that I may find, and plainly perceive myself to grow in the knowledge of the same.

8. Resolved, never to count that a prayer, nor to let that pass as a prayer, nor that as a petition of a prayer, which is so made, that I cannot hope that God will answer it; nor that as a confession, which I cannot hope God will accept.

9. Resolved, to strive to my utmost every week to be brought higher in religion, and to a higher exercise of grace, than I was the week before.

10. Resolved, to respect above all and honor my Father and Mother. Including their decisions for my life.

12. Resolved, after and during afflictions, to inquire, what I am the better for them, what good I have got by them, and what I might have got by them.

13. Resolved, to confess frankly to myself all that which I find in myself, either infirmity or sin; and, if it be what concerns religion, also to confess the whole case to God, and implore needed help.

14. Resolved, always to do that, which I shall wish I had done when I see others do it.

15. Let there be something of benevolence, in all that I speak.

16. Resolved, to improve every opportunity, when I am in the best and happiest frame of mind, to cast and venture my soul on the Lord Jesus Christ, to trust and confide in him, and consecrate myself wholly to him; that from this I may have assurance of my safety, knowing that I confide in my Redeemer..

17. Whenever I hear anything spoken in conversation of any person, if I think it would be praiseworthy in me, Resolved to endeavor to imitate it.

18. Resolved, never to give over, nor in the least to slacken my fight with my corruptions, however unsuccessful I may be

19. Resolved, to make my family of highest priority of people in my life and to seek to serve them in every way possible.

20. Resolved, to seek out ways to bless and equip those around me.

21. Resolved, to be like soft clay in my makers hands..




I am reaching for the stars here.
I am destined to fail.
I am choosing to try again when I do. :D
