If you had to give up one of your five senses, which one would it be?
Probably sight. It would be a good excuse not to drive anymore. (Driving scares me, sometimes.) Also, I won't compare myself to people as much if I don't see how physically attractive they appear.
What do you tend to worry about in the middle of the night?
My family (hubby and kids), and other situations that I (think) I don't have control over.
What is the most unique thing about your mother?
Never met anyone as contradictory as she is in my life.
Yes, I am going to Spain in May. It's all very exciting. It's my solo vacation. Can you believe it? I can hardly believe it. I'm short of words. I hope to write more about this sooner rather than later...just wanted to share the news for now.
What's the best part about living with a roommate? Worst?
One thing I enjoyed about having a roommate is that you always had someone to go somewhere with. It's easy to just get up and ask them, hey, wanna grab a bite/do grocery shopping/etc. You don't even have to call them up.
The worst thing is no privacy when you need it!
'Twas the night before Christmas... How are you spending this Christmas Eve? Do you have any Christmas Eve traditions you're excited about?
Hubby and I will spend Christmas Eve putting together and wrapping our kids' huge-ass Christmas present! We got them a Thomas and Friends train set, with a table. What can I say? They LOVE trains, and we haven't gotten them anything huge for their respective birthdays. They deserve it.
You know that saying that goes, "Man makes plans and God laughs at them"? (Or something to that effect.) That's how I feel right now. I was at the home stretch of finishing my SIL's Gretel hat when my mom called. We spoke for awhile and she said, "Your brother called me from Texas. He and [SIL] are visiting her family and they will come back on January 2nd." WTF? No one told me! I thought -- and here I was rushing to get this hat (and soon, a scarf) done in time for Christmas. Because of that, I have put the hat down for awhile, and have started to dream about other knitting projects. Still, I am almost done with it, and I really should finish it this week so I can get started on that dang scarf. I wish someone told me so I wouldn't feel like I'm in a rush all the time.
