5QF June 4th, 2010

Hi All! This is a great Friday for me. Tonight around 8ish, we are hitting the road and driving our happy selves to Destin, Florida for vacation! I haven't had a vacation like this one since 5 years ago. Actually, it will be 5 years to the day. We arrive at the beach on June 5th, the same day we started our honeymoon 5 years ago. Happy Anniversary to us!

Make sure you check out Mama M. for her answers to this weeks questions, rules and linky things and what not! Have a great weekend, make sure you check back in this week for my guest bloggers. It's going to be fun!

Happy Follow Me Friday, Social Parade Follower Friday Blog Hop and Friendly Friday Follow! Hope you like what you see and decide to follow me!

Now, let's get on with the questions.

1. If you could go back to college would you change your major? Or, if you were to go to college right now...what major would you choose? 

 

Never went to college, but if I were to go right now, I would probably go for something cool like photography or maybe massage therapy.

2. What do you love most about your home?

 

Our newly remodeled upstairs! Everything is fresh and new and so cozy and cute. I just love it!

 

3. What types of books do you like to read (if you like to read at all)?

 

I love to read, if only I had more time! Christian Fiction by authors like Karen Kingsbury, Michael Phillips, and there are many more, but those are the two names that I can think of off the top of my head.

 

4. What is the grossest thing you've ever eaten?

 

 This isn't really gross, but it's the only thing I can think of. I can't stand raw onions or peppers. There is something about the taste and texture I don't like at all.

5. If you HAD to be a character on a TV show, whom would you be?

 

I'd like to be the mom on 7th Heaven! I've always wanted to have a big family and have lots of kids to take care of.

5QF 4/16/10

Happy Friday to you! Oh boy, it's been a busy day so far. This week I'm joining in with Mama M. for Five Question Friday, Follow Me Friday & Friday Follow! Click any of the above links to see what the heck I'm talking about.


*New followers: I welcome you all, but I will not follow back if you do a lot of reviews and giveaways, I'm a read about life kind of blogger!*
 

 So, let's get this train rolling out of the station and answer our 5 questions!

1. What words do you use on your blog/online that you don't use in real life?

I don't think I have any words I use on my blog that I don't use in real life.

I take that back.


I'm kind of a freak about using the correct word on my blog even though in real life I'll use the slang version. For instance, going to vs. gonna, in real life I'll say gonna all the time, but on my blog it must be typed out the proper way. I know, anal right? I'm the same on Facebook too. The only time I freely use gonna, ya, whatcha and words like that are in text messages.


And LOL? Who really uses that in real life? I mean come on, are you really going to say Laughing Out Loud instead of just laughing out loud? So, that would be the word I use online, but never in real life.

2. Do you still write checks?

Yes, but it's getting to be fewer and fewer all the time. I only use them for bills or small local businesses that may not have debit machines or they prefer if you write checks since they get charged for every debit transaction. And the number of checks I write for bills is dwindling as well. I pay most of our bills online.

3. Who was your favorite President and why?

I'm going to say, George Washington.

He played such a huge role in the fight for our independence and he was an all around great man.

4. Are you a yeller?

Ummmmm, that's kind of a personal question there Mama...

Oh, my bad, let me just pick myself up out of the gutter, so sorry!


Yes and no, I have a tendency to be vocal and loud if necessary. 


A few weeks ago, I was the only sober chick on a bachelorette party bus with about 25 girls. The two guys who were DJing were trying to get everyone's attention and no one was shutting up. *Insert my loud mouth* "HEY, LISTEN UP LADIES!"  Yes, I'm a yeller.

When I worked for Sam's Club and we were having our associate dinner before the big grand opening, they were handing out some cheesy little awards. Out of the 200 or so associates, I received the award for being the one with the loudest mouth and being the most vocal and outspoken one.

So, yes I guess that classifies me as a yeller!

5. Have you ever dumpster dived? 


Good heavens no! Why on earth would I want to sift through rotten, stinky trash. Grossing me out over here. I think I even have a little throw up in my mouth at the thought of something so revolting. **gag**




That's all for this week. See you later alligator!! =)
