WWTK ~ apparently TEXTING edition for me!!

{1}What is your biggest guilty pleasure?
Crappy reality TV.  I know it's awful and garbage and rotting my brain and corrupting society, but I just can't stop watching.  My favorites are Toddlers & Tiaras and OMG the gypsies, I looove the Gypsies!

{2}What is the ONE thing you're never too busy for?
Hmm, this is tough.  I'd have to say texting.  If I get a call I may be unable (or unwilling) to answer but I can almost always return a text.  

{3}They say love is in the little things. What is a little thing someone does to show you love?
I love getting texts asking if I'm ok when someone knows I'm having a rough time.  It lets me know that person is thinking about me and cares.

{4}What were you doing 30 minutes ago? 
Texting.  LOL  That seems to be the theme of my WWTK this week!  I was actually texting and watching crappy reality TV - 'cause I can multitask.  :P  

{5}If you could be on any game show what would it be? 
Probably Wheel of Fortune because I'm good at it.  But I think Family Feud would be a blast!

WWTK Wednesdays - The Noms Edition

I love me some Mamarazzi, she has so many fun blog memes and I enjoy it when I get to join in.


Crazymama went to the grocery store hungry and came back with these questions:

{1} walking down the cookie aisle at the store, what do you pick?
I truly enjoy the Snackwells vanilla sandwich cookies and they are probably my most frequent cookie purchase.  I also love EL Fudge and Oreos!!

{2} would you rather eat chips or crackers? which kind?
I am addicted to chips.  I love Baked Lay's Sour Cream & Onion, Baked Ruffles Cheddar & Sour Cream, and any kind of kettle cooked chips.  I am a SUCKER for chips & dip, I could live off of that!  But I do love cheese & crackers too.

{3} what kind of pickles do you like?

Claussen Kosher Dill Spears.  They are THE BOMB.  I looove them!  Dill only for me, I can't stand sweet pickles.
One of my ultimate comfort meals is a grilled cheese sandwich (2 Kraft Single slices) and a pickle.  YUMMMY!


{4} what is your favorite candy? 
anything that involves chocolate.  I really like the Skinny Cow Dreamy Clusters. Also Skittles - but only the red ones.  I know....I'm not well.  My kids always give me almost all of their red ones.  They love me!

{5} marycate @ http://marycateutah.blogspot.com wants to know about your beverage preference.
Coke....Or Pepsi? Diet Drinkers? 
Diet Dr Pepper.  It's a sick, sad addiction.  It is my crack.  Is there a 12-step program?  If I must, I will drink Diet Coke, but only in a dire emergency.

Late for the Party

I'm always late. It drives me crazy. It drives everyone crazy!
It's one of those things I'm working on. I'm making progress, slowly.
So of course, I'm late for WWTK! But at least I'm not a whole day late. See? Progress!



This week Crazymama wants to know how you pamper yourself...

{1} What is your go to color if you paint your nails? do your toes and fingernails match?
purple!! I rarely paint my nails but my toes are always purple. It's my favorite color so it's fun to always have purple somewhere on me. It makes me smile. =)

{2} Have you ever gone for a mani/pedi? how often do you go?
many manis, only one pedi ever. I didn't like it. I have an aversion to feet *shudder* and did not care for having mine messed with.
I haven't had a mani in forever!

{3} Do you color your hair? do you have a salon do it or do you do it yourself?
I saw my first gray hair when I was 20 years old, shortly after having my first child. We tend to go gray early in my family. So I have been coloring for many, many years, and would probably be fully gray by now if I didn't. I usually do it myself but occasionally treat myself to a professional color. I usually stick close to my natural color, dark brown. Once a stylist went WAY heavy on the highlights and I ended up very blonde - and I HATED it! I am not meant to be a blonde. I love being a brunette!

{4} Facials...have you ever had one?
nope

{5} Would you or have you ever done botox?
I have not, but I would consider it. I've mentioned this before here....looking young is my vanity. I am so fortunate to look much younger than my age; once that no longer comes naturally, I may just help it along! ;o)

{6} Beauty knows no pain, do you believe in waxing, electrolisis, eyelash extentions, anti-aging creams, micro-dermabrasion, peels, botox?
I get my brows waxed regularly, and I think eyelash extensions are gorgeous, although I've never had them. I 'believe' in all the rest, although I've never done any of them (except occasionally used anti-aging creams). If I feel the need down the road & have the money, I may just go for it!

WWTK - Trick or Treat Edition!

It's time for WWTK, hosted by Mamarazzi, Queso, and Crazymama!

{1} How did you celebrate Halloween? Trick or treating? Adult party? Trunk or treat?

On Saturday night, we went to a party at my BFF's parent's house.

We trick or treated on Monday with my BFF & her family. (That is, the girls and I did. Tim had to work, and Andrew was with his Nana.)

BFF's nephew, Kayden. I love him like a fat kid loves Halloween candy!

{2} What candy is your favorite/the first thing you steal from the kids?

The rule is, all chocolate goes to mom. I have to check it out thoroughly to make sure it's safe. Then, I have to eat it.

My kids do not follow this rule. Rebels!! However, this year I trick-or-treated myself and got my own candy! Ha.

Trick or Treat, bitches!!

{3} What kind of candy do you give out, is it your favorite? or something you know you won't be tempted to eat?

I live out in the woods, literally. We don't get trick or treaters. But when I did give out candy it was usually my favorite.

How cute is Bentley a.k.a. Mickey Mouse??

{4} How soon after Halloween do you take down decorations and put away costumes?

Halloween is my favorite holiday & I love the decorations, so I'm usually reluctant to put them away. I'll probably do it this weekend.

Biker Chick & Doctor

(taken at Sonic, practically our second home)

{5} When do you decorate for the next holiday?

I keep up the Fall stuff that I brought out for Halloween, and when I take down the Halloween stuff I put up my Thanksgiving deco.

Kayden LOVES Elayna. He hates me. But I still love him!

I hope you enjoyed your Halloween,

Time After Time

It's Wednesday, and time for another installment of WWTK!

This week they want to know what we do with our time.

1. If you had an extra hour to do ANYTHING for yourself each day, what would you do?

Most definitely, an hour phone call with my BFF. We rarely get to talk on the phone, although we text daily, but a solid, uninterrupted hour of conversation with her? Priceless.

2. Are you a morning person or a night owl?

I am a total night owl. I always have been. And it's funny that this question is asked today, because for the first time in over five years, I will be going to work at 7am. I worked nights for over 4 years at the hospital, and for the past year have worked nights and/or late mornings. I am slightly freaking out about having to get up at the butt crack of dawn in the morning!

*ETA* I didn't sleep last night. Like, at all. This should be interesting!

3. How much sleep do you get on an average night?

This is hard to answer because, as I stated above, I'm a night owl and I sleep weird hours. But my best guess is 6-8 hours per night/day. I LOVE sleep. I just don't like doing it at night. Which is going to be tricky now. lol

4. When do you find time to blog/surf the ol' interweb?

Rarely, these days! I usually get time online after the kids go to bed. It's nice and quiet and peaceful!

5. What is the ONE thing you're never too busy for?

I'm never too busy for Facebook. One, because I can check in quickly. Also because I can do that on the run; my phone is not a Smart Phone, but it can access Facebook. So I am on there a lot throughout the day.
