What's one of the simple pleasures in your life?
This question can have so many answers. I'll have to say, though, that it's probably being out at the lake watching the demons fishing on the dock. It's quiet, peaceful and fun.
What do you like to snack on when you watch a movie?
A bowl of ice cream, but thats not something that a person can "snack" on. If you don't eat the stuff, it melts.
If you were a Survivor contestant, what would be your luxury item?
Does where I'm going have wireless? LOL I really don't know... maybe pictures of my kids? Can Saki be a luxury item? Hard question... I really don't have an answer that wouldn't be food or beverage related.
Amber @ Mommy Mania felt a strange need to give me this amazing award. I feel very honored, and special, and all warm and gooey inside, just like chocolate chip cookies. Thanks Amber!
1) Admit that ONE thing you feel awful about involving being a mom. Get it off your shoulders. Once you've written it down, you are NO LONGER allowed to feel bad. It's over with, it's in the past. Remember, you're a good mom!
- Sorry, but it's not in the past. It's current and I don't know how long it will be current. The worst thing is my social phobia, which stops us from doing a lot of things that the demons would like to do... like going to the mall.
2)To remind yourself that you ARE a good mom, list SEVEN things you love about your kids, you love doing with your kids, or that your kids love about you. These are the things to remind yourself of EVERY DAY that you rock!
- I love how artistic Demon #2 is. She is amazing with a pencil & sketchbook.
- I love how Demon #1 is so much like me with her random outbursts of sillyness. She can jump into a room and announce that she's there better than I ever could. The other day she runs in and says "Who invented marshmallows?".. just to say something silly.
- I love Demon #2's hugs.
- I love how both demons still want me to tuck them in at night... and as much as I hate it, I love the 10 "Mom wait!"'s that I hear every night.
- I love that Demon #1 has such a wide variety of music tastes. She loves Poison, Johnny Cash & ACDC.
- I love how they think I'm the only one who can make a bologna sandwhich, eggs and my macaroni salad. They say anyone else's doesn't taste right.
- I love how both of them think alcohol is the dumbest thing ever. They think getting drunk is silly. I can only hope that train of thought stays another 10 years....
- I love that I haven't killed them both yet.
OOps. That was 8. Oh well.
3)Send this to FIVE other Moms of the Year that deserve forgiveness and a reminder that they, too, are the best moms they can be!!! Remember to send them a note to let them know you've selected them, and add a link to the person who nominated you!"
Melissa, Kimber, Karen, Jen & whoever else wants to do this!
1. where is your significant other? As in right this moment? He's upstairs on his computer.
2. your favorite thing? this is quite the question... I have many favorite things, but which is the right answer? The most logical would be the demons, but most days they aren't my favorite things because... well... they are teenagers. I could say all my critters and that would probably most logical, but there again... are they a 'thing'? Peanut Butter Cups are my favorite candy... I have a certain chair that is my favorite... I have a pillow that is my favorite... I think you need to be just a tad more specific on this one.
3. your dream last night? I was shopping at Hot Topic for clothes for myself, which I wouldn't wear now being an old lady, but when I took the demons in there last week it was like walking back into time - those were the clothes that I wore as a teenager!
4. your goal? There you go again with a question that is so open ended. My goal for today is to get laundry done and not eat the entire box of doughnuts that I bought yesterday. Oh... and I'd like to wear a bikini this summer without everyone laughing at me.
5. your hobby? typing on this keyboard.
6. where do you want to be in 6 years? Still alive, for one. Lets see, in 6 years I will no longer have kids in school (hopefully college though) so in 6 years I want to be able to get up with the husband and get in the semi with him without worrying about who is going to get the demons up for school.
7. where were you last night? In my living room watching a movie with the husband and demons. Then I went to bed. Exciting, huh? (well.. the bed part was a little exciting....)
8. what you're not? WTF? What I'm not? I'm not a boy. I'm not single. I'm not a rap music lover. I'm not a teenager. I'm not a beer drinker. I'm not the brightest bulb on the tree. I'm not a serial killer. I'm not an althetic person. I'm not a radio DJ. I'm not a mother of 4 kids. I'm not a grandma. I'm not a prostitute. I'm not.... what else do you want to know that I'm not?
9. one of your wish list items? a Canon EF 800mm f/5.6L IS USM Super Telephoto Lens. This baby is just over $10grand. But I just about orgasm every time in see one. I just wanna touch one.... just take one picture with it.
10. your pet? We talking my critters here? Saki, Chico, Big Boy, Oliver, Serena Rosabella, Jake and a bunch of fish.
11. missing someone? Yep
12. your car? 1996 Mercury Sable and I LIKE IT DAMMIT!!! I wish people would stop telling me to junk it. It's not dead yet!
13. something you're not wearing? Whats with the "not" crap? I'm not wearing fishnet stockings and a black leather negligee.
14. love someone? No. I hate everyone. Every single one of you.
15. when is the last time you laughed? When I read #14.
16. last time you cried? I'm about to... but seriously? I don't know, one last last week or something.
17. favorite past time? Blogging, believe it or not.
18. are you a hater or a lover? I just said I hate everyone, aren't you paying attention?
19. any vices?I think the husband has a few out in the garage - do you have something you'ld like me to put in it?
20. favorite meme other than Sunday Stealing? Thursday Thunks, of course!
