Does this donut make my butt look big?

I'm doing another question & answer blog. This one comes from Dazee Dreamer at Crazy Daze & Nite Dreams. I like the questions so here it goes....

1.) Tell us one nasty habit you have--we all know you have one!

I didn't really think I had any nasty habits. I'm a lady, ya know! So, I asked my son. Without even hesitating you said 'You have the worst farts!' So there you have it. I have nasty farts. Hey, I live in a house full of boys, if you can't beat em, join em.

2.) You are able to hire one of the following-which is it? Maid, Chef, Gardener.

Maid!! Oh I would love a maid. My niece used to scrub my kitchen floor, do the windows and bathrooms, dishes, the whole house for $50. Then she got a real job and doesn't have time for me anymore. Spoiled brat. Now I have to do it. The thing is...since I have lost some weight it's not so bad to do all that stuff. It used to be that just mopping the kitchen floor would exhaust me for the rest of the day. Now it doesn't even phase me. But I still want a maid, at least to clean the bathroom. With 4 boys in the house the bathroom gets scary!!

3.) Would you sacrifice one of your fingers for half a million dollars?

This is a tough question. Can I pick which finger? I don't need my left thumb to type, so that would be a good one to lop off. Seriously though.....if I needed the money for my kids, like say they needed an operation or had a chance to attend Harvard or something then I wouldn't hesitate for a minute. But if it was just to have the money then I'm not sure I could do it. Half a million would pay off my house, pay for a few killer vacations, a new car and a new truck for hubby, and have a lot left to invest. But it's not enough that I'd feel comfortable enough to quit working. Hmmmm can I trade the finger for a love handle? LOL

4.) Tell us how your husband popped the question? (If you're not married how would you want someone to pop the question?)

My Soldier & I went to Jackson Hole for a weekend get-a-way for Valentines Day. Snowmobiles scare me and I hate being cold. So what better way to spend Valentines Day than being up before the butt-crack of dawn to ride on snowmobiles from Jackson Hole to Old Faithful in Yellowstone? It's about an 8 hour ride for the round trip, I was reluctant to say the least. Yellowstone in the winter is closed to cars, only a certain number of snowmobiles are even let into the park each day. And it is spectacular! If you have ever been to Yellowstone in the summer you know how beautiful it is. But it does not compare to the winter. It's like being on the moon. A whole other world. Incredible. Breathtaking. I was in awe!! And I wasn't cold. We got to Old Faithful about noon and as we were standing on the boardwalk and Old Faithful starting going off my husband pulled a little box out of his pocket, got down on one knee and asked me if I would spend the rest of my life with him. It was so beautiful! Everyone around us from the tour was staring at us. A little girl yelled 'Say Yes'. And I did. I started crying and my tears froze to my face. When we got back to town he thanked the tour guide for taking him out with his girlfriend and bringing back his fiancee.


5.) Is there anyone that has ever done you so wrong that you just can't forget or forgive them...at all?

 Yes. I don't really want to get into it here, now. I'm working on a couple posts that may or may not get published in the future that would talk about this. Basically I have the attitude that if you hurt me once shame on you, hurt me twice shame on me. I also believe in second chances, but trust is a biggie with me and if someone burns that then it's really hard for me to ever trust them again.

6.) Do you believe that people should wait until marriage to have sex? Why or why not?

I was raised to wait. But I didn't. I don't think it's realistic in our culture or times or whatever you want to call it. I think you can talk to your kids until you are blue in the face, tell them why you want them to wait, that sex is special and should be saved. But honestly, when they are in that situation, 75% of the time hormones will override parents words.

I have told my son that he should wait, gave him all the reasons why, but in the end I just hope that when he does have sex that he'll be smart and use condoms. I put condoms in his stocking last year at Christmas because I knew he was already having sex and wanted him to be safe. He's only had 3 girlfriends, the last one he was with for over a year. So it's not like he's being a gigolo. And for me, I can't imagine marrying someone without test-driving the merchandise first. I mean really, what if you got married and then you were totally incompatible in bed? What if he has some really weird fetish? Or wants you to do something you don't want to do? Yea...I say take the test drive.

That's it. I love Dazee's question & answer posts. I might do more of them. :)
