BYOC

1. Are you late, early or on time?


Before children, I was always early...at least 10 minutes.  Now, I'm RIGHT ON TIME.  There's no wiggle room so if traffic's a mess, I'm screwed.  This drives me absolutely crazy.  I can't wait until they are old enough where I don't need to get them ready to go and they move faster than a snail's pace.  I agree with Drazil on this one...I think being late is kinda rude.  I have friends who are chronically 30 minutes for everything.  What makes them so special?

2. Name 3 things you dislike and 3 things you like:


Dislike:
Having no money by payday
Political bumper stickers
Atheists who can't accept Christians and Christians who want to shove God down everyone's throats (Explanation: I'm a news junkie - always on cnn.com or usatoday.com and somehow the arguments often wittle down to the existence of God.  It seems that some atheists think anyone who believes in God must be a complete moron and probably need help tying our shoes.  Then there's always another person who answers the atheists quoting bible verses and condemning them to hell and damnation...as if this argument means anything to an atheist.  I just don't know why we all can't agree to disagree...)
 
Like:
When my kids are acting all sweet & happy
Going to the movies (I only do this maybe 3 times a year these days...such a treat)
Sleeping in
 
3. Are you a morning or night person?
 
Prechild, I was a night person.  Up all night, slept during the day...never woke up before 11.  Now that I'm a responsible parent of two...I guess I'm a morning person.  I mean I get up at 4 a.m. to go to work and my kids are up by 6:30 even on the weekends.  Do I like it?  No.  I yearn for retirement. 
 
4. What is your favorite clothes store?
 
Fashion Bug.  They have regular sizes and larger sizes.  The larger sizes are the same styles as the smaller ones (over all) so you don't feel like they're trying to make you look fatter by putting huge flowers on things. 

5. Repeat question: Summarize your week in life and in blogland.

My life was beyond dull this week.  Work was crazy busy with meetings and home life was seriously lacking quality time.  I'm hoping I can get on a better schedule with things and have some more energy to do stuff with my girls.  Blogland was pretty dull as well.  It was consumed by Chicago.  The pics are great but not many posts coming out of it.  Those of that didn't go were whining about not being able to go. I look forward to when the time comes for normal blogging again.  I miss the regular posts and progress of other bloggers.
