I was tagged awhile back ago and thought Now would be a cute time to post it.
The deal is 7 things you didn't- wouldn't- know about little Ole' me. Let's begin.
1. I Prefer to shop alone. Always have.
Occasionally I have a few girlfriends or cousins to tag along
but MAINLY I would rather be by myself.
I can spend as much or little time in stores at my own pace just browsing.
Alone time is good for the Soul.
2. Board Games. I just can't stand them.
I think they're a waste of money and if you have a party
and pull these out...I'll just go find your book section or browse your DVDs.
3. The Kennedy Camelot.
I ADORE the legacy of Jackie & Jack Kennedy.
I'll watch it, buy it, read it, study it of anything about these two.
4. Send me those Roses future hubby!
I think receiving flowers/roses is something of a lost art.
I was in RS one Sunday and one lady raised her hand
and said it was a waste.
To me, yes..they will die but the moment,
the memory of receiving them enlightens the soul.
5. I am a YouTube junkie.
I cant tell you how many videos I'll find and watch over and over.
Music videos, Operas, Old TV moments...it goes on and on I tell ya!
6. Some girls dream of big fancy wedding dresses...
I dream of EXTREMELY nice wedding invitations.
To me, the invitation sets the stage and I'll spend more thought/money on my invites them I will my dress. I LOVE getting them in the mail. I save all of them.
7. I just know I was meant for a different era
because I am OBSESSED with British period or any Historical Movies.
Pride & Prejudice, Emma, Sense & Sensibility, Persuasion,
North & South, Victoria & Albert etc etc and now
I'm DIEING to see this movie
The young Victoria that came out this year in England.

Tagging By Sevens
1. Even Numbers. I CANNOT stand for things to not be even. It doesn't matter what it is, I've always preferred for it to be even. Even when I dream of my wedding date, I would prefer for it to be in an even year number.
2. Playing the Piano. I'm one of those girls who's a sucker for guys who play the piano and I long to play it myself. As I have been in/out of music lessons, I never could get the hang of reading sheet music. All those women back in the 1800's were taught to play as part of there accomplished meants...{sigh} I guess this means I would have failed in society. LOL
3. Want a picture Frame? Alright, yes, I've posted this for the world to see. This is my HUGE collection of pictures frames. So you've found me out. Addicted to cute picture frames. Hi, my name is Tierra and I have a problem.--Step 1.
4. If you ever see me, I will ALWAYS have earrings on. I'm not a huge necklace kinda gal but any type of cute earrings or simple, sliver, gold, pearl, studs...I buy them. Right now, I WAY into the whole safari print. NOT to the extreme but classy. i just bought them and I LOVE them..Oh Jenny B. -- picked you up a pair!
5. Bulk & quantity cleaning supplies. I have this fear of running out and so I always add to my storage when I'm at Wally World--Wal-Mart--
6. Socks. I LOVE cute printed styled socks! I have some for every holiday and add to it each year. I guess you could call this a sock fetish. I wouldn't dare show you my sock drawer, Why? You'd be jealous that's why...nah, just kidding..it's a mess!
7. Diana & the royal family. Okay...lame...well to me not so lame but to you all probably. I'm a "in the closet" freak for ANYTHING about the royal family, it's history, and Princess Diana. Oh, if only I could marry Prince Harry and become his Duchess. You don't know how many day dreams I have. <------ Oh, dear. Did I just admit that? Well, fine...Yes It's true. Me & my mom would always watch any biography or look back on royal history or Princess Diana life on TV and she would tell me stories of the morning she woke up at 4 am to watch the wedding. I was so jealous!
Don't worry. No tagging by me this time but Thanks again Debi for the great & fun tag!

Lady, What's in that Bag?!
When I was little I used to LOVE going through my mom's, aunt's, grandmother's, purses! It's called being a snoop. You know we've all been there, being little sitting in church bored out of our minds! So what did you do? Snoop through whom ever purse you could find! That's for sure what I did. Now a days I have refrained from the purse snooping...Well... at least not in church sacrament anymore SOOoOoooOoo as I was cleaning out my purse this weekend it just hit me *ZAP* like a lightning bolt that you my dear faithful readers must be DIEING to know what's in Tierra's infamous purse.

Maybe OCD-ness but trust me...people thank me when there around me and I say "Sure I have one :)" Leah, I can just here you laughing at this one but here goes...We have Mini Lysol. Tell me you could not use this any where and I would walk away from you becuz you would probably be very germy. Ewww. Toothbrush/ Paste, comes VERY in handy. This one's for Mary...Tide to Go stick :) and Shout out wipes! Q-tips, Kleenex, Clorox wipes, Alieve, hairbands, bobby pins! On the final thought...Remember people I work in a hospital and germs 24/7!

"The inside of Women's purses, or handbags as the English like to call them, is a place not for the faint hearted. It's a place of great wonderment and intrigue. "
-Scott Abbott

Ask and I Answer
Wow! What A “what the freak?” question! I’m going to be honest and say Yes/No. Yes, I would like to know when my times up. Why? Time’s too precious. And I hate surprises. No, because I get nervous when something different is coming up that’s out of the norm. for me. So I couldn’t imagine knowing it and trying to get things done fast enough. Talk about panic attack 101
What are three "nevers" in your life?
Never liked cats. Never been in Love. Never owned Louis Vutton purse :(
If you could wake up tomorrow having required a new skill or trait what would it be?
That my hair is dead sexy every morning with no styling involved! That would be awesome don’t you think?
What book made you cry the most and why?
Believe it or not but never cried on a book. I think…though New Moon gave me a heart attack. Though come to think of it, I ALMOST cried at the End of Breaking Dawn because it was over!
Describe a memorable or funny experience you had on a date.
My whole dating life is a funny laugh out joke. Does that count?
If you could go back to any period in time and witness one event what would it be?
Oh tough one! Well….titanic has always fascinated me and for some reason I would have loved to have been on that boat or during the JFK years. I would have SO copied Jackie O and her style.
What do you think is the greatest invention to come along in your lifetime? Why is it important to you?
Greatest invention in my lifetime would be the Internet. That’s so dorky to say but it’s true. Think about…pretty much any info {all good} is at the reach of how fast your fingers can type.
What do you want that you don't have?
Are we talking material or Life wise? Material, ok probably a Dark Red 2009 Jetta. Life wise…A Family of my own.
If you had the chance to repeat one year of your life would you? When would it be and why?
What is a motto you live by? Explain.
I honestly don’t have a life motto. I’m the kind of girl who is a bit skeptical at things and so with that, I don’t make yearly plans or resolutions or life mottos because if I didn’t fulfill them I would feel REALLY bad and down on myself. I take things day by day and moments to look forward to. And just do the best that I can do.
How do you feel about questions like these?
I answered them didn’t I? No, really though I did this because it was a different set of questions then your normal “what’s your favorite color?” questions
I like thinking at odd questions. There intriguing and I’m nosy. Perfect match!
***I Tag Kathy, Amber, and Megan***
