1.  On a scale from 1-10 the frequency with which I get sick is,   a two, i think. i rarely get the flu or colds. but everyone knows, i tend to injure myself (back and neck issues) more often than i'd like to admit   .

2.   The last time I felt sick was    lol, yesterday, after cycle class. i was so ready to puke, but does that really count? lol   .

3.  The worst part about being sick is     having zero energy      because     life still moves around in a rapid pace, and if you slow down or stop, you'll get ran right over, then you gotta sprint to catch up  .

4. When I am sick I like to be taken care of by    my Mom, lol. when i am so sick (or in severe pain from injury) my Mom will come over and bring me soup and 7up, or stacks of dvds to watch. she's so good to me .

5. Something I do to keep myself healthy is     exercise and eat clean (for the most part) .

6. A secret remedy that I use when I'm sick is to     get lots and lots of sleep, and if it's a cold, lots of lemon tea with honey... just like my grandma used to give me when i was sick .

7.  One thing that always makes me feel better when I'm sick is   sleep, resting my body, hot tea, and warm soup  .

2.   I can hardly wait for    my daughter to call me to come pick her up after her cheer tryout happening right. this. very. minute! eeeek!!   .

3.  The quickest way to my heart is    chocolate     because     it makes EVERYTHING better... usually  .

4. A little known fact about me is that     (so, maybe unknown to blogland but not necessarily to irl) I sometimes maybe alot actually like, totally talk like a valley girl! lol. I mean, c'mon... I totally grew up in the IE... So Cal baby! lol (maybe a more known fact, totally a dork too, hehe) .

5. The best part about my job is     that I work for family so it's pretty much fun and games and laughter and silliness layered with stress and hard work and crankballs somedays, layered by love and appreciation and gratitude. Yeah... .

1.  My favorite room in my home is     the family room    because     it is where the fam all hangs out, watches movies, plays games, and all that jazz  .

2.   My current decor style is   comfy semi-country lived in .  but I wish it were more     modern... in the sense that it was more up to date and trendy .

3.  I wish I could redecorate the     the formal living and dining room   room in my house to make it more      than just a room with no furniture for nearly 7 years now. lol.

4. My dream house absolutely has to have a   fireplace, a gourmet kitchen, a large two-person shower in the master bathroom along with a large soaking tub, a detached casita, pool and spa, on at least an acre of land. Too specific? lol .

5. One house item I am willing to splurge on is   a new TV... I think we are the last person in America with an old school large boxy big screen TV, ugh .

6. A decor trend that I just don't "get" is   fake or dressed up animal mounts. If you're anti hunting or whatever, don't put up a cardboard deer, or paint antlers and hang them, or what really gets me is the mounts that people dress us with hats and jewelry. Have some respect for that animal. He did not die for your mocking him, we hang our 'trophies' to respect that animals life and thank it for feeding our families. Sorry, mini rant there.

7.   Candles and Wallflowers from Bath and Body Works   is a little touch that makes my house feel like home

1.  The love of my life is   Jesus! And my family.

2.   Falling in love is   something spectacular.

3.  Marriage is   not always rainbows and butterflies.

4. The longest relationship I've ever had was  (IS) 17 years.

5. The key to a good relationship is  communication and humor.

6. I feel loved when   someone does something small yet thoughtful. It's the small things that add up.

7.  My favorite quote about love is   "Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around.”

1.  I started my blog because   I wanted a place to write, to express myself without needing approval.

2.   One thing I love seeing on other blogs   personal stories, not always happy, but certainly real, and very human.

3.  Something I love about blogging   is the people that I have come to know, and some I have been lucky enough to meet and remain friends with.

4. A favorite blog post of mine is probably  anything about my dad.

5. Something my friends in real life know about me that I've never before mentioned on my blog is   oh geez, who knows.... that I'm a complete nutball in real life. I'm a definite goofball who likes to be a bossypants, I tend not to get along with girls and I have to be the center of attention. Is that right? Anyone in my real life got something to add! lol.

6.  My new favorite blogs to read are  haven't really added any new ones in quite some time.

7.  Some things I tend to avoid doing on my blog are   well, I try not to be a debbie downer, but I swerrr, that's what I mostly write about. I might need to change my blog name to Vent Session 101, lol.

1.   One of my favorite things to do when I have free time is   snuggle up and read or watch movies (preferably old ones) all day long .

2.   When I have free time I tend to   not utilize the time as well as I would like, I spend too much time trying to figure out what I want to do instead of enjoying it    .

3.  If I had an entire day completely to myself I would   take my time and drive up north to Sedona, then Flagstaff and back down  .

4.  I would prefer to spend my free time (alone or with others...)   both, but I really REALLY enjoy my time alone and quiet  .

5.  Most of my free time happens   when the hubs is hunting and the kids are at school or at a friends house .

6.  The best thing about free time is   that it's all about Me. I don't have to do anything for any body .

7.  The next time I have free time I should probably   clean my loft, or scrapbook  but instead, I'll probably    read or watch a movie .

1.   My favorite place i've ever traveled to is     Hanalei Bay on the island of Kauai, HI  .

2.   England   is somewhere I'd love to go someday.

3.  I pass the time on a plane (or bus, or car ride or train) by     reading, watching a movie, or sleeping      .

4.  My three must-haves when I travel are     alcoholic beverage (I am scared to death to fly, and this is the only thing that will relax me)    ,    head phones (to play whatever movie they are showing, or listen to whatever music they are playing. anything to drown out that awful 'in flight' noise... ugh)   and      a blanket (they keep it icebox cold, I suppose like a hospital, to keep it all low-germ, even though I almost always get sick after a flight).

5.  My favorite travel companion is    the hubs .

6.  The craziest thing that ever happened to me while traveling is    my first time traveling with myself and two small children (Sissy was not yet 3 and Bubba was nearly 2) as if that isn't stressful enough, on my return flight, we hit some major turbulence (the flight is an hour long, CA to AZ), so the male steward comes on the intercom and says: Um... oh God, Um... if you haven't done so already, please do" followed by more turbulence. I went white as a ghost and the lady sitting across from me (we were in that front area where there are six seats, three on each side facing each other) kept asking if I was okay and got me a cold towel to wipe my beading face. I thought I was gonna die with my babies and leave the hubs all alone. I was also barely 21 (now you know why I absolutely strongly dislike, close to hate flying)  .

7.  The most exotic food I've ever tried while traveling is   Lau Lau on my first visit to Hawai'i on the island of Oahu  .

1.   The last thing I ate was     roasted eggplant. Yum!  .

2.   The last song I listened to was    listened to ...Fall In Love At A Coffee Shop by Landon Pigg. The last song that played was Any Way You Want It by Journey   .

3.  Using the letters in my name I can spell    Jennifer... Jen, Fen, Fin, Fur, Fein, Jeer..  

4.  If I had to dress in one color for the rest of my life I would pick     Gray, because it's not black or white, and it's slimming  .

5.  If you were to look in my bag right now you'd find    my wallet, my sunglasses, chapstick, and my kindle fire .

6.  When I finish filling in the blanks I'm going to    wrap up my work day and hopefully head to the gym for cycle class  .

7.  My all time favorite song to dance to is    oh geez, no clue. depends on the mood  .
