100 Things about Me

I saw the 100 things about me list and loved it. I used to be into journaling but haven't written in years and what a good way to write a few (100 exactly) things about yourself that you can look back on and see how you've changed! I'm turning 30 on May 22nd and so this is a perfect time for my 100 things about me.
1.) This is how I write numbers.
2.) I hate having an overstuffed fridge. I have to be able to see all the food I have or it makes me crazy.
3.) I like the idea of having company at my house but not the practise.
4.) I love all crafts, anything creative I'm there but can't draw worth beans.
5.) I am teaching myself the piano and I am my worst student.
6.) I love my son but I am so happy to have a girl. I'm not even a girly person but I just LOVE the dresses, bows and frills!
7.) I worry constantly and think I am turning into a hypochondriac. The other night I couldn't sleep because I needed a plan if the doctor tells me I have cancer.
8.) I am not a morning person by choice. (Just ask poor Mark and Darrell) I am a morning person by necessity.
9.) I can only be sympathetic for two days when people are sick. Those two days I am the best; getting people soup, rubbing their back and feet, the best care giver you can imagine. That third day rolls around, I'm done.
10.) I HATE hugs. I hug my husband and children willingly everyone else, sorry, I hate it.
11.) I LOVE spare change. I collect it and roll it. Tyson calls it my game. Right now I have $145 dollars in misc. change. I will pick ANY penny off the ground. It makes me happy. Ridiculously happy.
12.) I have developed an allergy to all of my earrings. It breaks my heart. I just cannot buy a "real" pair yet. I know one day I will. Maybe with my spare change fund.
13.) I am a pack rat. My grandpa lived through the depression and taught me everything he knew. He had a drawer labeled "pieces of string that are too small for anything". I'm almost that bad.
14.) I miss my Grandpa.
15.) One reason I love Jason is that when we were dating he told me I don't have to throw any of my "treasures" away.
