On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being highest, how well do you keep secrets?
Depends on the secret. Some are too volatile to keep. Mostly a 9, I would say due to the extreme cases I have seen in secrets.
Salad

What kind of driver are you? Courteous? Aggressive? Slow?

When was the last time you had a really bad week?
That’s a hard one. I think it was probably the week everyone in my family seemed to be having health issues, house issues, car issues, and finance issues. That week was like 2 months ago.

Where do you visit on a daily/semi daily basis on the net?

My hair? Oh it’s growing just fine. I have finally figured out the “magic formula” for allowing my hair the rest time it needs in order to rejuvenate from chemical hell. My hair is getting longer, stronger, and more brilliant every week…at least, that’s when I notice it. I am sure things are happening every day. I am using some really good smelling pink serum that is for promoting growth and strength while minimizing breakage. Fantastic stuff, so fantastic that my son decided to dip his hand in and use some for his own hair since he wants it to grow back in now LOL

Sorry for the lack of update since Mother’s Day. I had no power yesterday.
So, what did I get for Mother’s Day? My son DID make it the best Mother’s Day ever. But then, what is a Mother’s Day without the ones who made you a mother to begin with? I finally unwrapped the present he made me at church the other day. It was a gorgeous little snow globe with his picture (when he had long hair) inside. I have it on top of my television. He also made me a flower pot with flowers that will not die. He had been so upset by the fact that my other flowers died, that he was all too happy to give me something that will last forever. My sis in law gave me a cute shirt and some bath/body stuff. My MIL gave me a red rose and a gift certificate to Red Lobster. My mother gave me twin eggplants dressed like babies! Oh she is hilarious. My baby sister gave me a gorgeous flower that will continue to bloom through the season. The Man gave me time, which is a luxury anymore. He works ALL the time and it’s amazing he was able to stay with me for even a few hours.
What did I do?
I ended up going to Red Lobster for lunch with my in-laws. I wasn’t going to go, since no one had informed that the kids weren’t allowed to go and I had nowhere for my son to be. Even if I had known in advance, I still wouldn’t have had an option. They said he could come, so I went. I wasn’t worried about any diet pill reviews that day. I had my fill of scallops & shrimp before heading over to my cousin’s house. The theme: seafood! There were crabs, crab cakes, shrimp, and plenty of desserts. I don’t know how I put away more food, but I did. My fave that day was no bake cheesecake with strawberries slathered all over the top. Talk about GOOD.
PS. I hate flourescent lights. They leave motion trails and make people look demonic, but here are the pictures nonetheless. Read the rest of this entry »
