5 Question Friday is here again!

It's back!  And lets get right to it, shall we.  




1. Have you ever testified in court? For what?
Sort of.  It was in the commissioners chambers  but read on the record.  All over child support and custody.

2. Do you still have your wedding dress?
I got married in Vegas.  That’s a funny story.  So my wedding attire was a pair of jeans, and a cute shirt.  I do still have the pants, but no longer have the shirt.  I mean it was 8 years ago.   However, we did have a reception when we came back and I had a dress for that, which I just recently took to a consignment shop.  Which reminds me, I need to call them and see if it sold.  $$$

3. Is there a special place you like to go when you're happy, sad, stressed, etc.?

To my husbands arms.  Cheesy I know, but it’s  true.  Ahh, LOVE!

4. If you have kids, do they sleep with you? If you don't have kids...will you let your kids sleep with you when/if you have them?

I do have kids, I did breastfeed them, so they co-slept with me for about the first year.  Well, I fed them and got them to sleep, put them in their bed.  The first time they woke up in the night, I just brought them to bed with me.  My 20 month old still  wakes up and comes to my bed on a regular basis.  It’s ok with me.  I like the snuggles.  My husband is okay with it, since they are not in our bed the entire night.  My older 3 all out grew it by about 2 1/2 years old.

5. Do you watch late night TV?

I do,  Actually I DVR shows that I want to watch, and after the kids go to bed, my husband and I watch TV together.   It’s our special unwind together time.  We really look forward to it.  Sometimes we even have special treats,  like Oreo’s and Milk!

Five Q Friday again!

1. Do you know what your REAL hair color is?
I do not color my hair, simply because I am too lazy and can’t quite justify the cost of it in my life.  My hair is a mix of blonde and brown. 

2. Do you plan ahead for summer, or fly by the seat of your pants?
A little of both.  We plan a few special trips and activities, but still leave plenty of room for spontaneity and relaxation.

3. What is your favorite meal to cook?
To cook?  Really?  Hmm.  Grilled Cheese sandwiches. 
Just kidding, I like to make Salisbury Steaks.  1lb ground meat 1 onion chopped, 1 egg, 1/2 cup bread crumbs, salt and pepper.  Mix all ingredients together, form into patties and pan fry just quickly.  Smother in gravy and bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 min.  YUMMY!

4. Do you get offended by not receiving thank yous?
Not at all!  Never, nope.  Don’t sweat it.  But your very welcome!
5. How did you meet your best friend?
I worked with her, I lived by her, I went to church with her, we met through a mutual friend, I am related to her.  (Yes, I have lots of best friends)  I hope this covers all of them. 

Well once again this has been fun for me anyways.  Enjoy more answers over at My Little Life. 

Five Question Friday

Ok, this is my first time participating.  It looked so fun, I had to try it.

1. Have you ever forgotten your child in a store or at school?

I don’t know if this counts or not, but once a few years ago, we went to Yellowstone for a family vacation.  I mean extended family.  My husbands entire family went.  (He comes from a family of 6 children)  We were going grocery shopping for the cabin, and there were so many of us going, we took two cars.  Emily was in our car.  We all (I thought) got out of the cars, some of us went into one store, and the rest into another store.  About halfway through shopping I realize Emily is not with us.  So I call the other group of people, she is not with them either.  I get frantic, and run back to the truck to look for clues, and I can’t see her anywhere.  I for some reason open the door, and look around.  She was laying in the 3rd row seat of our Dodge Durango.  She said everybody left so fast, she couldn’t make it, and so she saw some other people walking in the parking lot and got scared, so she got back in the car, locked the doors and hid in the back.  She was about 6 years old.

2. Where did you go on your very first date? (Like...first first, not first with your spouse or current significant other!)

I seriously cannot remember.  I would have to imagine it was someplace “normal” such as dinner. 

3. What's your "silly" fear? (We're not talking water and heights.)

Ok, Ok, this is serious to me, but my husband sure finds it funny. 

I cannot lay, let alone sleep if the open side of the pillowcase is facing me.  I am afraid that I will wake up, and my head will be inside the pillowcase and I won’t be able to breath or get out.  Also the tag cannot be facing out of the pillowcase. 

4. Confrontation: do you cause it, deal with is as it comes, or run far far away?

I honestly do them all.  I cause it if I feel it needs to be dealt with.  I deal with it, if it’s brought upon me.   I run far far away if it doesn’t directly involve me.

5. Wood floors or carpet?

If your asking which I have, it’s mostly carpet.

If your asking which I want, it’s also mostly carpet.  I have had hardwood floors, it was just to hard for me to put my babies down on them, even with a blanket under them.  I do NOT like to walk on cold floors either.  I know, I know radiant heat is available but, what about the cushiness?

Well this was fun, to participate yourself or to see what others answers are, and there are some that should make you feel better about your answers.  Check out Five Question Friday over at My Little Life.
