In a world all about others, I focus on me...

In the hustle and bustle of every day life, I think us mothers lose sight of ourselves. So I am dedicating this post to myself, all about me me me!

I shall start with some weird (or at least I think so) facts about myself:
1. I like my showers HOT. Like no cold tap on at all.
2. Anything that should be toasted, I like soft. (toast, waffles, english muffins, etc)
3. I have to sleep with my own blanket
4. I like cookie dough A LOT.
5. My favorite cereal is Fruit Loops
6. I enjoy thrillers the most
7. I listen to country mostly, but can appreciate all kinds of music
8. If I had it my way, I would be a CSI
9. I like earthquakes and turbulance
10. I am a published poet

I love being a mom, but sometimes I wonder what life would have been like without my kid. I don't think that makes me a bad mom, nor do I wish that was the case, I just have that wonder.  The past is the past, but it is hard to not think of the what-ifs sometimes. Is this a common thing? Or am I just being weird?
