Tell the Truth Tuesday!

It's that time, guys--time to 'fess up and divulge this week's dirty (or not so dirty) secrets!

My truths this Tuesday?

1) I love using power tools! I started making jewelry this past week for my new Etsy shop and decided it would be an easy task to make my own square wooden beads. I used a gigantic power saw my husband has to cut up a tiny ass dowell into beads, and then drilled holes in them with another giant, whirring death machine.

It was awesome. I even bought a handsaw yesterday and felt very cool walking out of the store with it. Yeah, that's right. I saw things, baby! Spraying wood shavings everywhere is way more fun than it should be.

2) I'm addicted to Friday Night Lights. And even worse, am suddenly into football because of it. Now, as a geeky sort, I haven't taken in a lot of ball games. There's just something about this dang show, though, that makes me want to shout "FULL EYES, CLEAR HEARTS, CAN'T LOSE!" and go roll around in the mud with a pigskin.

Also, this show has shown me that Texans are crazy. Sorry, Texas.

3) I talk to plants. I started a garden and am nervously watching over it like an overbearing mother and have recently began speaking encouraging words to my plants at night when my husband's not within earshot. Our neighbors also have a garden on the other side of the fence, so I never know when they're only inches away. I'm sure they think I'm nuts. They may be right.

Go ahead, confess ;). What are your truths this Tuesday?

I talk to plants too :)

And I talk to my animals

I'm ready for writing to be my life... rather than my life just involving writing...

I think people who destroy life just to make money should be thrown to the zombies first...

Power tools. WOW! I can't even handle a vacuum cleaner. I suppose that can be my truth for this Tuesday.

I love power tools, too! And borrowing a truck to take all the branches I've hacked and pruned to the recycling dump. FNL is a great show. I wonder what you say to your plants . . .

Awesome! Way to take control, Becca! Haven't gotten into Friday Night Lights yet, but one of my guy-friends loves it. It's his man-soap. ;)

I hate standing still on an escalator. Get outta my way, people! ;-)
