Sunday Stealing: The "18 Questionable Questions" Meme


Cheers to all of us thieves!

1. If your lover betrayed you, what will your reaction be?

It would not be good!

2. If you can have a dream to come true, what would it be?

Wake up hearing the ocean waves and feeling the cool ocean breeze in my Ocean front Condo. Getting the girls ready to go out on our boat, and while Jeff scuba dives we will relax on deck fishing and listening to Jimmy Buffet tunes :)

3. What is the one thing most hated by you?

Hate is a very strong word, but I guess I Hate people who don't take care of their kids and don't love them. I also really hate doing dishes every day!

4. What would you do with a billion dollars?

Retire. Set accounts up for the girls. And we would do what we wanted when we wanted. Live the good life.

I did.

6. Which is more blessed, loving someone or being loved by someone?

Both. Being loved by the ones you love.

7. How long do you intend to wait for someone you really love?

I waited for Jeff for almost 4 years. I would have waited longer.


8. If the person you secretly like is already attached, what would you do?

My advice would be to keep secretly liking them and if it was meant to be it will happen.


9. If you'd like to act (movies, stage) with someone, who would it be?

Matthew Mcconaughey. Oh, the question was act, I would just want to look at and listen to Matthew. Act would be the late Katharine Hepburn.

10. What do you expect of your loved one?

I don't expect anything. When you start expecting things from a relationship you are bound to get disappointed. As long as my kids and myself are feeling Loved and Cared for and of the highest priority in his life than I am good :)

Married and Poor.

Well since my arthritis is acting up it takes me a little while to get out of bed. When I finally manage to rise it is off to the bathroom to pee.

15. Do you ever hold back in a relationship?

Sometimes I will just bite my tongue when I want to say something that I think might start an argument but 99% of the time I will just let it all fly and deal with it. So no, I try not to hold back.

16. If you fell in love with two people simultaneously, how would you pick?

I know it sounds hokey, but just follow your heart.

17. Would you forgive and forget no matter how horrible a thing that special someone has done?

I am sure it would depend.on what it was they had done, but in general I am a forgiving person and I tend to forgive fairly easy. The forgetting part takes time.

18. What are your three most important expectations in love?


Trust, Loyalty, and the ability to remain Best Friends.

A to Z Challenge









Well, I tried hard to complete the challenge before May - but this past week has been very hectic. I even lost 7 pounds this week without even trying, I just did not have the time to sit and eat. I am NOT complaining about the 7 pounds :) So today, May 1st I am finishing up the challenge. Y and Z.


Y is for YUMMY

Robert Redford Dessert. This is one of my all-time favorite desserts. Growing up I had a neighbor who made this for me and I just love it!



Yummy





Z is for ZOO

Who doesn't love to take the kids to the Zoo. We have taken the girls to the Louisville and Indy Zoo several times and they have loved it. I would like to get them to the St. Louis Zoo this Summer if we get the chance.

Have a Great Sunday!

A to Z Challenge




X-ray
I really can't say enough nice things about X-ray/ Medical Imaging. It is what both Jeff and I do. It is how I met my hubby and it pays the bills, provides for the kids, and allows us to take nice vacations each year. You can work any shift, various hours, you can work in a hospital or clinic and there are several different modalities that you can branch off into. > CatScan, MRI, Ultrasound, Special Procedures, Mammography, Nuclear Medicine, and even Radiation Therapy.

Ouch !

Brain Blead - Not Good

Long Live X-ray! :)

A to Z Challenge



Abigail on a Tractor at Dakin Farms

V is for Vermont
Vermont is another place that I have found that I could live. If I could not live out West, I think Vermont would be my next choice. It is Beautiful. I have a love for Red Barns and there are no shortage of barns in Vermont.

Burlington, Vermont - a college town that reminded me of Indiana University - but with a waterfront.

Stowe, Vermont - In my opinion, the prettiest part of Vermont

I had never heard of Dakin Farm until one of my friends started sending me their bacon and syrup and pancake mixes. I Love the stuff! Was so excited to actually get to visit.

Not only does Vermont have good syrup, but the Cheese is awesome too.

And don't forget Ben and Jerry's!

A to Z Challenge


Happy Monday Everybody! Hope everyone had a great Easter and was able to spend some quality time with their loved ones! I had to work all day Sunday but we were able to spend all day Saturday together. I guess I am lucky that I have early risers because I had to get up really early for work and right before my alarm clock went off I heard my 3 year old screaming with excitement because the Easter Bunny had come. This was 5am! She was so excited that she could not get her pants down in time to pee in the toilet... So when I open our bedroom door and look to see what is going on I see her naked butt running down the hallway with her Easter basket in one hand and her pee soaked PJ bottoms in the other :)

U is for United States Of America

This was a no brainer! USA Baby!
