10 secrets about me!

I got this idea from my friend at http://www.onesingleminute.blogspot.com/ and hope that you join in the fun and do this also! 

10 secrets about me that you may or may not know, and maybe some things you really don't CARE to know!  But here they are anyway:

1. I don't like animals and yet we have 11 (possibly more) because my kids LOVE animals!
2. Messes drive me crazy and I have to use much self-control when my children make them!  (Not good when you have 11 children!)
3. My husband and I knew each other well for about 6 weeks before we got engaged
4. I struggle with my self-image and have to bring it to the cross many times a week
5. I have never been on a honey-moon OR vacation with my husband.  (I have gone away on business with him for a couple days!)
6. I have a great fear of bridges and bats!  (Maybe it is the letter 'b' I don't like?) 
7. I have a best friend that I have known since I was 18 months old
8. I never made a meal before I was married, now I have to make sure there are meals for 13 people 3 times a day!  (I guess I am making up for lost time! )
9. I never did a load of laundry until I went to college and I turned my first load pink and had to wear them that way for a longer time than I wanted too until I went home to visit!  Now I do AT LEAST 4 times a day!  (Also making up for lost time!)
10. 
    
    I have a HUGE weakness for DARK chocolate and that weakness rears it's ugly head every night after the kids go to bed, so I don't have to share!  :) 

Please leave a comment on my blog so I can check out your secrets!  I would love to know you better too!
