I'm quirky...are you?

I found this on Gina's blog and LOVED it...thanks Gina!
Here are some of Sugar Mommy's quirky behaviors.

I cannot go even one day without applying lotion to my entire body. I put lotion on my hands almost hourly...is that obsessive?
I am addicted to chapstick. This habit is rubbing off on the beauties already.
I cannot be in the car without listening to music. It freaks me out.
I am a fidgety gal.
I cannot handle strong smells. They make me sick.
I can sleep anywhere.
I eat popcorn every night before bed.

What are your little idiosyncrasies? I am dying to know...

meme

I found this meme over at my friend Tricia's blog Purechaos. She is a momma and also a photography and get this...a derby girl too! I loved it and wanted to copy cat her...thanks for the idea Tricia!


1. You are walking down the road and you look down. There is a bug. Do you step on it?
Ewww! YES! Buglys are gross, unless you are a ladybug, then you are spared.

2. What is one fantasy that you want to come true more than any other?
Being physically fit.

3. Someone knocks on your door. Do you look out the window to see who it is before you open it? Do you open it regardless of who it is?
I always look before going to the door. If you are lucky...I open it.

4. Have you ever eaten Play Doh?
No, because I HATE the smell of it!

5. What was your favorite Saturday morning cartoon as a child and why?
The Muppets. I had a secret crush on Kermit he is so dreamy!

6. Are you a "people watcher"?
Yes. People make me feel normal.

7.I have a bowl of fruit. There are apples, oranges & pears. You help yourself to one - which one do you choose?
The pear, apples and oranges are kinda boring.

8. What is your biggest pet peeve in the blogging world?
don't really have one I guess. To each their own.

9. What is one religion that you could just never see yourself joining? Jehovah's Witness. I don't see sending my kids out on the town on bikes for two years alone to share their beliefs inside peoples homes. I agree with Tricia here...thanks for letting me use your words...hope you don't mind!

10. What word do you use far too often?
Call it stuck but I still say cool a lot. I hate it. It even annoys me.

11. How long do you spend in the shower?
Not much I have 4 kids and they o not allow me much time. All hell breaks loose if I am in there more than like 4 minutes. No I'm not kidding.

12. If you were to write a personal ad about yourself, what would it say?
Sensitive, Caring, neat freak, hates to cook, loves to snuggle, wound up tight, witty, with a dry sense of humor, great with kids, not an animal lover, always in the mood for a good laugh.

13. Your favorite flavor of soup is....?
tomato with a grilled cheese sammy of course

14. You are sitting on a bench in the park and a bug walks in front of your feet.... do you squash him?
Didn't we cover this in the first question? If you are a ladybug...you are still safe.
