1. What do you do when you get mad? – Typically I hold in the feelings. I know that isn’t the best thing to do, but it is easier than a confrontation.

2. Do you wash your hair everyday? – No way! If I do it will frizz beyond belief. My hair gets too dry with everyday washing.

3. How often do you speak to your parents? – Multiple times a day.

4. Your nails – painted or nude? – Nude since there is no time to paint them and let them dry properly.

5. What pair of shoes do you wear most often? – Definitely my sneakers since I stay at home with the kids and it is now warm enough for flip-flops and sandals yet.

6. If you could do anything you wanted to do this weekend, what would it be? – Sleep! Seriously I need to catch up on it since I have barely gotten 5 hours most nights this week.

7. What’s the best cough medicine you know of? – Delsym is the best non-prescription that we have used.

8. How do you feel about ‘springing forward’?? – Not happy about it. I did not realize until a few days ago that it was taking place this weekend. Ugh!

1. What is your favorite thing about Springtime? – Love not dealing with winter coats, hats, boots and all of that bulky wear. Also enjoy not having to scape ice off my car as much as in the winter.

2. Do you prepare special, maybe even fun, meals for your kids? Example, please.  – One item that I make special because both of the boys love it is matzoh ball soup.

3. What are you looking forward to this weekend? – Looking forward to hubby being home and finalizing what we are doing about a new much needed car.

4. Within driving distance, where do you like to go for a little getaway? – In the fall we loved going to the Six Flags park that is near our house. We got a great deal and bought season passes for this coming year. It should be a great thing to have with the boys.

5. Laundry detergent: liquid or powder? – Liquid and unscented.

6. What does your spouse do around the house that you appreciate the most? – I am so lucky to have a husband that enjoys cooking. He makes most of the meals during the week.

7. Do you converse with the grocery checker or pay and bolt? – I make nice chit chat. I remember all too well what it was like working in a grocery store.

8. Have you ever had an MRI? (If you feel comfortable sharing why, please do.) – I had an MRI done on my knee a few years ago. I fell on ice in the parking lot at work. I hurt my leg pretty badly. Thanks to some funny noises, I was sent to have an MRI done to rule out further damage. It was not a fun experience and am glad that my head stayed out of the machine.

1. What is your favorite family activity? – Going to the park when the weather is nice. Can not wait to do this in the Spring now that the little guy is really walking and running. Of course this summer we hope to be able to use our season passes for the Six Flags park that is close to us.

2. Do you know how to play poker? – Not really. Although I think my brother would teach me if I really wanted to know how. Heck, he would probably take me to the casino near his house to learn.

3. Have you ever been to a chiropractor? Regularly? – No, I have never been.

4. Have you ever slopped pigs or milked cows? – No, but I did help an old friend in her barn since she had a horse at her house when I was in college.

5. How are you doing with the goals you made for the New Year? – Still doing Weight Watchers online. Stresses and not adding as many veggies into the day, along with needing more exercise are making it very slow. Still I have lost and have not gained.

6. Is there something you dread doing every day? – I  don’t love changing diapers, but we are just thinking about potty training the little guy. Thursday night before bed he asked to got potty. I think he was trying to stall bedtime in reality.

7. What room in your home would you most like to buy new furniture for? – The boys room. We are still debating bunk beds down the road.

8. If I had a dollar for every piece of clothing I wash over the years, I’d be able to get a bigger house and vacation at Disney World more often.

1. How long has your longest friendship been? – I have known several of my friends since I was born thanks to being neighbors or our families being friends before we were born. The longest friendship from school is my friend M that I met in kindergarten. We are still in touch and see each more that she moved back here.

2. What made you happy this week? – Sunday I was thrilled to be pretty much done making dining reservations for Disney World. We basically got into all of the places we wanted. I am also happy that we seem to be making ground on on getting NHL’s allergies under control.

3. Are you planning any kind of event right now? – I suppose you could call traveling with kids on an airplane for the first time an event. All of the plans, packing and such for Disney World will likely be an event. Plus we will be celebrating a 2nd birthday among other things. Oh, I suppose I need to find a time to do his 2nd birthday party here for family before or after the trip as well.

4. Do you wear your wedding ring? What is it made of? – I usually wear my ring all of the time (except to sleep). My engagement ring is platinum and my band is white gold.

5. Do you shave your legs in the winter? – Yes, but not nearly as often as in the summer. Without shorts the need is not quite there.

6. What time do your kids go to bed?  – NHL (5) goes to bed between 7:30 and 8:00 most nights. JSL (21 month old today) usually goes to sleep between 7:30 – 8:30.

7. Right this minute, is your laundry caught up? – No, I usually do some on the weekend so there is a little there now.

8. Do you want flowers for Valentine’s Day? – Hubby knows that I do not like to receive flowers. Like my mother, I do not like to watch them die. It makes me sad to see them, plus I think about all of the money wasted on them for such a short amount of time.
