It took me a long time to figure out whether I wanted to set up a new blog or not. Shouldn’t I use the little time I have to knit or sew instead? What if I wouldn’t be able to update my blog frequently? What then? Well, I concluded, then my non-existant audience would think I am a bad blogger. I decided that I could live with that.
Why don’t I start with some not particularly interesting, random facts about myself?
1. Some people here pronounce my name like an accusation: “You lie!”
2. I am a daydreamer.
3. I worry too much.
4. I try hard not too.
5. I am afraid and very suspicious of chemicals.
6. Did I tell you I worry a lot?
7. I am easily amused.
8. I go and research EVERYTHING on the internet. Especially baby products.
9. I struggle pronouncing “hazard” right. Always have the French version on my mind.
10. I love chocolate, cake and cookies. Lately I try to control my intake a bit.
11. I love watching documentaries. My husband finds them depressing. So I get depressed all by myself.
12. I have never been good at sports.
13. I have always enjoyed to make things. As a child I made books for my dolls. My dad found them and declared he wanted to keep them as a memory. I found that embarrassing.
14. Back in Germany I have been very reluctant when it came to driving. Over here I simply have to do it if I want to get around. Turns out I don’t mind it that much: Yay for automatic transmission!
15. I don’t like to have my picture taken. Since I had my baby I don’t hide that much anymore. I want him to know what I looked like when he was little.
