Do you ever cut out coupons, and then never use them? I have, yeah. Usually because I can find some other brand that's cheaper.
Do you ever count your steps when you walk? I used to when I was walking home from school. Lost count after 1,000, usually.
What's a movie you could watch over and over and still love? Dogma, Bridget Jones' Diary
Have you ever run out of gas while driving/riding with someone else? No, it's always been just me. ALTHOUGH! I did run out of gas pushing my dad's car once. LOL! We were both driving VW Bugs. He just ran out & asked me to push him home. We got about 1/2 mile from the house & I ran out! Turns out my gas gauge was messed up. It said I still had 1/4 tank of gas left. Mom came across us walking home. We all had a big laugh about it.
What are your plans for this weekend? I'm working until 3 today so I've got 3 more hours here. I'll need to call the boss lady some time in the next hour & clue her in on today's drama. After that, I may go to the grocery store. I'll either go right after work or I'll wait until Shawn wakes up. I'll hang around the house, cleaning up & doing laundry. It's a beautiful day so I'll probably wash sheets & towels & hang them out to dry. I think I'll try to fry up some potatoes for dinner tonight. Tomorrow, I have to work 7a-3p again. I'll probably do whatever surveys I've stock piled that I won't be able to get to today. After work, I'll go pick up Chris from his grandparents & get his clothes ready for the week. I'll just hang around the house doing various house-type stuff for the rest of the day. Exciting, yes?

Last person to give you a business card? No clue
Have you mastered the art of air guitar? Not even close.

Do you have any pickles in your fridge? I don't... think... so.

What's the craziest/weirdest thing you've done to cheer someone up? I went nuts at Bed Bath & Beyond right after my Jen Friend left her cheating husband.

Have you ever won an award? Student of the month in grade school and my Award of Arms in the S. C. A.
Do you watch the daily news? Sometimes, when we're getting Chris ready for school. More often than not, I'd rather watch Blue's Clues. He couldn't give a flip about the news, of course. This way, we can sit together for a few minutes before the bus arrives.
Could you ever be with someone who already had a child/children? I am. When I got to my mid-20's, I realized that the older I got, the greater my chances were going to be of falling in love with someone who already had children so it's never been an issue for me.
You're stuck in a room for 1 hour with a chalk board; what do you draw on it? *shrugs* I don't know... Names in cursive. Can I have colored chalk? If so, I'd probably draw something related to whatever holiday is up next. Now, of course, I'd draw Easter eggs & baskets & the like.
Something you wish to accomplish before the end of the year: A kitchen that's clean for an entire 24 hours. 24 hours straight. No dirty dishes in the sink. At all. Not even a glass or Shawn's coffee spoon. *dreamy sigh* Yeah, that'd be nice. lol!
Which wizard of Oz character are you most like? Last night, I would've said Dorothy. I just wanted to go home.
Do you think giant anacondas really have a purpose on this earth? Of course, everything does. Even that ...woman..., Virginia, in the laundry room. Unfortunately, today her purpose was to make Shelly cry. I hate to say it but I hope she gets her walking papers soon.
Do you like how your name is spelled? I guess. All the other spellings look strange, not better.
What's your favorite card game? Gin rummy
How many months until your birthday? A little under 2 months
How did you wake up this morning? Damn cats were awake & playing around. Their rabies tags jingling around woke me up. 30 minutes before the alarm was supposed to go off too. I hate it when that happens because I can never get back to sleep.
Anything been heavy on your heart lately? Yes. There's fixing to be all kinds of drama between us and Chris' mom if she doesn't get her head out of her ass.
What would you probably be doing right now if you weren't doing this? Cross stitching a Mother's Day project for my MIL.

I had no bills & a significantly sized lump in my wallet. I wanted it and, for the first time, I had the money for something that I frivously wanted. So, I got it.
If you were at a magic show, would you volunteer to be on stage? Oh, heck yeah!

What would you do with 3,000 rubber duckies? Redecorate the bathroom and then send them out to all my friends & family as a "I'm thinking about you" gift. After that, I'd send one to everyone on PCS! With all the others, I'd choose random people from the phone book & mail them out.
Do your eyes change color? I've never been told they do.
Do you like sleeping on satin sheets? No. They're too cold and I don't like the feel of them.
What's the worst injury you've ever sustained? I broke a couple of minor bones over the years. Stepped on a nail once. Separated my shoulder. I think stepping on the nail was the worst.

I got frustrated & was hurting so, in a fit, I tossed down the scrub brush and it bounced off the dish. Well, it was Pyrex so I knew it wasn't going to break but Shawn got frustrated with me. "Why don't you just find a happy place? Think of your parents. Think of Jen. Maybe that'll help you." I'm telling you, I almost bounced that damn scrub brush off his forehead.
