I enjoyed learning more about my friend, Jill over at Sneaky Momma, when she answered these questions. I thought it would be fun to give it a try too.
1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? My mom thought that she was picking a unique name for me when I was born: Kelly. It turned out that there were 7 Kellys in my first grade.
2. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED? About a month ago, looking at my oldest son sleep as I thought about this bully situation.
3. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING? I do enjoy writing in script. I wish I did it more often. I'm always at the laptop. It's tough watching my 9 year old try to master his script letters. Poor guy, it's a challenge for him.
4. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCH MEAT? American cheese. I know, it's not a meat.
5. DO YOU HAVE KIDS? Four wonderful, sometimes wild kids. Ages 12, 9, 6 and almost 4.
6. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU? I hope so. I know she would "get me".
7. DO YOU USE SARCASM? I have my sarcastic days, just ask my husband.
8. DO YOU STILL HAVE YOUR TONSILS? Yes.
9. WOULD YOU BUNGEE JUMP? It does look exciting. But I wonder if I would be like those Amazing Race contestants who freak at the very last moment. Maybe someday...
10. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CEREAL? Rice crispies
11. DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SHOES WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF? No.
12. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ICE CREAM? Chocolate chip
13. WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE ABOUT PEOPLE? A welcoming smile. A strong perfume or cologne will definitely assault me first :)
14. RED OR PINK? Pink.
15. WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT YOURSELF? I wish I had a better smile. Braces were not in our budget when I was younger. Of course, my 4 kids will all have them. We'll find the money somehow, I guess!
16. WHO DO YOU MISS THE MOST? My Dad.
17. DO YOU WANT EVERYONE TO COMPLETE THIS LIST?? It's up to them!
18. WHAT COLOR PANTS AND SHOES ARE YOU WEARING?Navy capris.

20. IF YOU WERE A CRAYON, WHAT COLOR WOULD YOU BE? I'll say purple because my daughter insists that purple is my favorite color. I guess she's the boss!
21. FAVORITE SMELLS? Cake out of the oven. Flowers and fresh cut grass.

24. FAVORITE SPORTS TO WATCH? Hockey, baseball
25. HAIR COLOR? Dark brown with all that gray sneaking in.

28. FAVORITE FOOD? Tortellini, chicken parmigiana, brownies
29. SCARY MOVIES OR HAPPY ENDINGS? Happy endings. I can't watch anything scary. Once I get a freaky image or thought in my head, it sticks with me for days. I'll be watching around corners as I walk around thinking that a serial killer is following me.
30. LAST MOVIE YOU WATCHED? Love in the Time of Cholera. Lots of passion and humor.
31. WHAT COLOR SHIRT ARE YOU WEARING? Pink (my daughter approves)
32. SUMMER OR WINTER? I like both. I love warm summer breezes, but I do enjoy the first snowfall. Everything looks so magical covered in the early morning snow.
33. HUGS OR KISSES? Hugs. I can never get enough of those.
34. FAVORITE DESSERT? Brownies, really anything with chocolate
35. MOST LIKELY TO DO THIS? I wonder who will jump to the challenge :)
36. LEAST LIKELY TO RESPOND? If my husband was a blogger, he would not do this at all. I can't imagine my husband as a blogger. He thinks blogging is like homework.
37. WHAT BOOK ARE YOU READING NOW? The Constant Princess by Philippa Gregory. I'm in such a historical fiction kick these days. You literally have to "watch your own neck" with all those royal executions back then. I think I'll stay in this century.
38. WHAT IS ON YOUR MOUSE PAD? We have mouse pads sitting in the drawer. Never used.
39. WHAT DID YOU WATCH ON TV LAST NIGHT? Of course, So You Think You Can Dance
40. FAVORITE SOUND(S)? happy kids laughing and singing, birds chirping, lovely music
41. ROLLING STONES OR BEATLES? Beatles, but I do have my Stones' days.

45. WHOSE ANSWERS ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO GETTING BACK? Anyone's!

46. HOW DID YOU MEET YOUR SPOUSE/SIGNIFICANT OTHER? We were 17 years old working in a Woolworth's discount store. He was a stock boy; I was the cashier. I always tell him that he looked "safe" and not dangerous so that's why I went out with him. He would rather that I gave a sexier reason for my initial interest. My sister prefers the "bad boys". She hasn't had much success with those guys. I hope my daughter wants a "safe" one too someday!!
I would love to learn more about you too! Feel free to play along.
Warm weather is here today. We're finally going to make it to the pool. Hooray!
