30 days of May

I am copying this from one of my besties, who copied it from someone else, and figured since I haven't been able to blog much since I started working out of the house I will give it my best effort.

Day 1, Wednesday: The story of your life in 250 words or less (or one paragraph... no one will be counting your words... probably)

The story of my life:  My name is Kae Lynn Berg Hadley, named after both of my parents.  I however, have gone by Katie or Kate almost my entire life.  I was raised in Utah with two younger brothers, spending half my life (until I was almost 10) in Salt Lake City, then we moved to Hurricane (entrance to Zion National Park and 100 degrees regularly) until I was 20, when I married my love, Jeff Hadley, and we moved back to SLC for him to attend the U of U.  A year and a half later we pack all that we owned and moved to Portland, Oregon, where we have been since.  Fast forward 8 years and we had an overly talkative, creative, and energetic baby boy, whom will turn 6 in just a couple of months and whom we love more than anything.  We also have two boxers, who contribute to the crazy.  I love hot weather (was raised in the desert).  Miss the smell of rain (even thought rain is a constant in Oregon there is rarely a smell to it).  Miss living near my family but love living independent of them.  I am tell-it-like-it is, sarcastic, and opinionated girl who believes laughing can cure almost anything, and true friends are hard to come.  There you have it, ME in a nutshell.

Day 2, Thursday: Educate us on something you know a lot about or are good at. Take any approach you'd like (serious and educational or funny and sarcastic)

I think I am pretty good at organization (Type A personality screaming through).  Nothing to me is better than have things orderly and tidy without having to constantly be looking for something or feeling like chaos surrounds me.  Unfortunately for me, Ethan has challenged that part of my personality for sure but hopefully in the near future we can start to work on that.

Day 3, Friday: Things that make you uncomfortable

Being late - It makes me very anxious, regardless of where I might be going.  I set the clock in my car 15 minutes fast, which Jeff complains about constantly, but it is a mental thing for me and it never hurts to have a couple of extra minutes.
Clothes - I can be really picky about clothes and may try on several items a day.  It has to be comfy or I will fidget with it the whole time and be miserable.

Do you want to join me?
