1. What is something that you have changed your mind about either recently or over a number of years? I thought really long about this and I have no idea what my answer would be...gotta check out everyone else's answers!lol

2. Choose either subject, but does your a) church b) job feel more like a dental chair experience or an easy chair (recliner) experience? My job (SAHM) is becoming a dental chair experience since I don't know what my next endeavor will be.

3. Kisses or hugs? Hugs definitely!

4. What do you think is the biggest threat to families today? Parents aren't doing thier job! We have too many kids raising themselves. Parents aren't instilling any values in thier kids.

5. A day after you grocery shop, you open a perishable item that is horribly spoiled. Do you take your receipt back to the store to be reimbursed or just throw it away and forget about it? I just forget about it.

6. What personality trait (feel free to address good or bad or both) do you notice yourself adopting from your parents? Fear. My mother was very afraid of allowing me to do alot of things when I was growing up and sometimes I find myself putting that on Mel. I try hard to let him be independent and try to teach him NOT to be afraid.

7. How many slices of bread do you leave in the bottom of the bag when you throw it away? Two? Three? Just the heel? None? We NEVER eat the end pieces! I always leave at least 3 pieces!

8. What mispronunciation or usage error really irritates you? People saying Scrimps for Shrimps!!! I just wanna scream!!

9. In honor of the uniqueness of today's date, what does the numeral 9 mean to you? (Any special life moments attached to the 9th? Are you the 9th kid in your family? Can you count by 9s really fast? etc.)

10. Does the general color palette in your closet match the colors you chose to decorate your home with? Decorated a home? Not yet.

11. When you're hanging out with friends in the kitchen, do you automatically ask to help, or do you sit there and chat until the host asks if you'd like to help? I'm not implying that the 2nd choice stems from rudeness or laziness, just not a first-response like it is for some people. I normally ask to help, but hope they say no. LOL

12. Let's end on a pleasant note: What do you enjoy about September the most? September is not too special to me...but it IS 2 months away from our birthdays!!
