Ten Random Things for July

1. My alarm is set for 8am, but I always snooze for 30-90mins. Waking up every 10 minutes is exhausting, but I can’t break the habit.
2. I like to vacuum 3-5 times per week. Our floors are light colored, so dirt is easily noticeable. Dirt stresses me out.
3. I no longer hate cooking! I would stab myself in the eye if I had to do it for a living, but I can handle making dinner 5-6 times per week. Steve barbecues every weekend.
4. I am quite content, these days. I’m pretty sure it’s because I don’t have to work.
5. My favorite thing about South Africa is the constant sunshine. We’ve only been getting about 1-2 cloudy days per month so far.
6. My least favorite thing about South Africa are the crime statistics. And the bugs.
7. I like to sit on the balcony and spy on people. I think one of our neighbors is a cigarette smuggler.
8. We get 2-3 wrong number calls a day, every day. Our number used to belong to a security company.
9. I am excited about turning 30 this year and want to celebrate by getting my first tattoo. It only makes sense to get tattooed in South Africa to also celebrate being here.
10. I have possibly been drinking too much rum here.
