Chore I Hate: Laundry and Dishes are pretty equal in my hate chore scale. Not changing from this stolen response, b/c ITA!!

Essential Electronics: Does a curling iron count? LOL...that, phones, music players (of any type) and computers

Favorite Perfume: Basic Instinct by Victoria's Secret - I just hope they never discontinue it!

Gold or Silver: I do both - it all depends on the style and whether there are other colors in the piece

Insomnia: Not consistently, but yes

Job Title: Mom, Wife, Admin Specialist (i.e. "secretary" in everyone's mind) for municipal Human Services Office

Overnight Hospital Stays: 1 - biking related head injury, 2 - 2 nights birthing and recovery of LMNOB, 3 - 3? nights birthing and recovery with Punkin Head - my water broke in early evening, and he didn't come out til early morning 2 dates later!

Phobia: I dont know if it's classifiable as a phobia... but I am very squeamish and freaked out by dental related things. Loose teeth, willies central - guess Charlie Brown will be pulling the stubborn teeth for our kids!

Quote: Well, I am a quotes junkie, indicated here, but one of my FAVORITES comes from the Word - Romans 12:2 -Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will I haven't gotten here yet but long for the day!

Religion: Christian

Siblings: 2 brothers, 1 sister, and 2 other brothers I don't know much

Time I Wake Up: 6:00-ish

Unusual Talent/Skill: I sing, but that's not so unusual....hmmm, I won several spelling bees as a child, and people at work trust me more than spell-check? (AGAIN, I am ANAL about spelling, noted in my intro, but am not the best typer, so it may not always appear that way)

Vegetable I Refuse To Eat: Hmmm....I dunno. I'm a try anything once kind of gal, and there isn't a veggie I've tried that I've sworn off.

Yummy Foods I Make: Chicken enchiladas, Peachy Pork Chops, chocolate chip zucchini cake, whole wheat banana-craisin bread....I LOVE to cook and do it quite well, no matter the dish- or so I'm told!

Zodiac Sign: I am a Taurus - I believe there is something to be said for the stars signifying some things, a la the birth of Christ, etc, however, I don't think one can base their life off astrology...I believe in free will, versus the predestination that the aligning of the stars would allow for. I DO have to say that the character traits of the signs *have* been dead on in my experience.
