Here’s the Facts:

1. I am an only child.  I was the only grandchild for about 20 years.  Yes, I am spoiled.
2. I walk with a limp.  I wear a prosthesis on my right leg as a result of a birth defect. His name is Jason after the monster in the Friday the 13th movies.  Long story…
3. I currently drive a Toyota minivan named Maverick.
4. I was single until my 40’s. Married in 2009.  Very glad I waited for God’s timing as my husband is HOT.
5. I am American with a lot of Cuban in the mix, thanks to my padres.  This means I speak “Spanglish” when I am upset and often start whining in one language and finish in the other.
6. I taught high school language arts and speech at my alma mater for 17 years.  No, I am not crazy (at least not clinically).
7. I am addicted to Fiber One Chocolate and Oats Granola Bars.  I consider them a health food.

9. I was born in Long Island, NY and moved to Florida when I was 5.  Mickey Mouse is my friend.
10. My favorite movie is “The Princess Bride.”  (Favorite Line:  “Mawage. Mawage is wot bwings us togeder tooday. Mawage, that bwessed awangment, that dweam wifin a dweam…”)
11. I think David Crowder is a musical genius.
12. I am a night owl married to a man who wakes up at 5AM.  Thus, I am sleep deprived.  Pray for me!

14. My favorite form of exercise is swimming.  I do not like to sweat.
15. My mom is a CPA, and my dad is a process server.   Rules were a big thing at our house.

17. My dad reminds me of Fred Flinstone — picture Fred as a Cuban in a guayabera.
18. I meet once a month with a book club that does not read any books…
