Hey y'all,
As I continue to work on the vision of this blog I thought I would do a couple get to know you posts over the next few weeks. I saw this post of 100 random questions and thought this was a great jumping off point. I mean, you can read the Meet Jessica section so here are some things you might not know about me. Since 100 questions would make for the longest post I have written to date I thought I would break this up into two posts and you can read questions 51-100 next Monday.
Q: Do you sleep with your closet doors
open or closed?
A: I think it tends to be open. I always sleep with my bedroom door closed but the asjoining bathroom and closet doors remain open.
Q: Do you take the shampoo and
conditioner bottles from hotels?
A: No. I tend to bring my own shampoo and conditioner to hotels since I have thick curly hair that needs all the moisture ever.
Q: Do you sleep with your sheets tucked
in or out?
A: In. Fun fact, I rarely sleep under the sheets. I sleep under the comforter but the sheets are so restricting that I tend to leave them be.
Q: Have you ever stolen a street sign
before?
A: No, I have never heard of the appeal of stealing street signs. Sorry.
Q: Do you like to use post-it notes?
A: Yes! My work desk is covered in them and I might have an entire drawer full in my desk at my apartment.
Q: Do you cut out coupons but then never
use them?
A: Yes. I love coupons and I try to use the ones I cut but sometimes I'm not the best at check on them. I do recommend the Southern Savers website for help getting into couponing.
Q: Would you rather be attacked by a big
bear or a swarm of bees?
A: I would go with neither but if I have to choose I guess bees?
Q: Do you have freckles?
A: Yes.
Q: Do you always smile for pictures?
A: I try to. I don't think I look great in a serious face mode and then there are the silly pictures which I tend to make a fish face for.
Q: What is your biggest pet peeve?
A: I have a handful of pet peeves. I hate when people are late without sending a polite text stating they are on their way. I have a bit of road rage when people drive dangerously. I also hate people who call single initials, monograms.
Q: Do you ever count your steps when you
walk?
A: I tend to count them when going up stairs. For regular walking, I have a Fitbit Flex that tracks my steps.

A: I think I have way back when I was a little girl scout camping, but that was years ago.
