Wee bit of Mee

 
 
{one} what time do you normally wake up?
Well, considering I don't have a job currently, I don't have a bedtime or wake up time. But about 5-6am I get a little antsy waiting for a good morning text =) I'm usually up right after I hear from mah babeh, no matter when I actually went to sleep.

{two} do you have a go-to song for karaoke?
Don't do karaoke so don't have a song

{three} if you could only see black and white except for one color, what color would you choose to see?
Probably pink. Or red. They're romantic colors and I'm a hopeless romantic.

{four} what color best matches your personality?
Probably pink. I'm a softy at heart, but I'm spunky too.

{five} if you could choose one meal to cook better than anyone else, what would it be?
Maybe a roast. Growing up, every Sunday after church, my mom &/or grandma would make this amazing roast & delicious sides. When my grandma passed away that tradition unfortunately ended. I would LOVE to start it again & pass it on in my own family. I did make one once and everyone thought it was amazing. Sad thing is, I don't remember all that I did with it. I like to experiment when I cook, and whip things up, and I always forget to write down what exactly I did.

{six} how many keys do you have on your key ring?
oh jeez...5 or 6. A few house keys, po box & mail box keys, and a couple I have no clue what they are.

{seven} do you give your pets birthday/christmas gifts?
Since I got my cat from a pet store, I don't know her birthday except the month she was born in. But Christmas I may get her a lil something and this year I'm going to make animal treats for the animals. =)

{eight} when your plate has different foods on it, do you mix or not?
Oh yes! I love to mix things up. My favorite is corn and mashed potatoes. And hash browns and eggs. But my bacon I eat alone because I enjoy it soooo much. =)

{nine} if you could hire someone to do one thing for you all the time, what would it be?
 I hate to do dishes, but I think I hate sweeping/mopping/vacuuming more.

{ten} when flying, do you prefer the window or aisle seat?
WINDOW! I love to look out the window and see the world under me. Plus, I have a slight anxiety and looking out the window helps calm me down. Maybe it's a little claustrophobia? I'm not sure.

Wee bit of Mee

{one} do you collect anything? if so, what and how long have you been collecting? 
Tiggers. Stuffed tiggers. Anything tigger. hehe 
{two} what is one cleaning tip that you swear by?  

I dont' think I have any cleaning tips. I just use whatever is at my disposal, or whatever.
{three} who would you call for bail money?  

Probably my mom. She may not have it, but she will definitely find a way to get it!.
{four} what is one thing you miss about being a kid?  

The innocence. I'm going out on a limb saying this, but it was taken away too soon. I miss the lack of responsibility too. When a kids biggest problem was figuring out which color crayon to use.
{five} name a few of your guilty pleasures.

Starbucks frappes! And chocolate! I can NOT resist any kind of chocolate!
{six} how early do you start your holiday shopping?  

I'm an early starter.
{seven} what is a family tradition that you would like to pass on to your significant other/children?  

Setting up the Christmas tree right after Thanksgiving. And then burning it on New Years! It's a family event.
{eight} what do you consider your greatest achievement?  

So far, just living. Being alive. Overcoming seemingly impossible obstacles.
{nine} what do you do to pamper yourself? 

I take long showers. Lotion freak! I take my time getting ready for things. Do my hair and makeup. It's rare that I do this, but when I do it's like a lil pamper myself time. I dont' have the money to go out and get my hair and nails done and all that brouhaha so I do my own thing for myself.
{ten}
if you were to start your own restaurant, what would it be called?
Something with my name in it, obviously. And maybe something to do with Strawberry because I'm a strawberry everything FREAK! I've joked about starting my own place and having nothing but strawberry flavors and what-not, since I was a little girl. It would be fun to do. Maybe....

Wee bit of Mee-Halloween edition

 
 
{one} have you ever seen a ghost?
Don't think so. When I was 12, I was helping an aunt move..and I swear I heard a baby laughing and the rocking chair in the room...was moving. It's a long story.

{two} when was the last time you dressed up for halloween?
Oh sheesh...YEARS

{three} what’s your favorite candy?
Almost anything with chocolate...but all in all I think Reese's Peanut Butter cups..

{four} did you have a favorite costume growing up?
Minnie Mouse..it was actually for a homecoming skit in which I was running for queen. I had the entire costume..make up and all. It was close to Halloween though!

{five} did you carve pumpkins this year?
Nope. I've actually never carved pumpkins. Maybe next year.

{six} what’s your favorite scary movie?
Uuumm...I'm not really into scary movies or horror flicks. I was when I was little. But now...NO WAY! lol The closest I can get is maybe The Nightmare Before Christmas.

{seven} haunted houses or corn mazes?
I think mazes because Haunted Houses are cheesy.

{eight} are you superstitious?
nope.

{nine} have you ever owned a black cat?
I'm not sure actually. My cat now is a dark grey..close enough right?

{ten} what are you plans for this coming halloween?
If I'm back in time, trick or treating with the nieces I'm sure. I have no life...so no parties for me. :-(

Wee bit of Mee

Just a wee bit about me...

{one} have you ever crawled through a window?
Yep

{two} what’s one subject that you wish you knew more about?
Probably history or literature...it's a tie

{three} who’s your favorite villain?
I can't say I have a favorite. But the one that pops out is Jafar from Aladdin. I was OBSESSED with this movie when I was little. He always kind of scared me. But I don't do villains. I'm a princess kinda girl. =)

{four} have you ever hit a jackpot on a slot machine?



nope never played.

{five} what is your favorite Disney movie?
I'd have to say Beauty and the Beast. When I was in first grade, we had a costume contest. My mom made me a dress similar to Bell's. Funny thing...my crush...was prince charming. Well to make a long story short, I won the contest...and so did he! Everyone thought we were a couple. hehe We became close buddies after that. =)

{six} if the whole world were listening, what would you say?
I believe in the golden rule. Treat others how you wanna be treated. Respect and trust others, as well as yourself. Love without conditions. Live without expectations because they only lead to disappointment.

{seven} if you could choose one song to describe you or your life, what would it be?
Honestly I'm not sure...I'll have to get back to you on that. =(

{eight} your desk: messy or organized?
Definitely organized. My own purse is organized!

{nine} have you ever had surgery?
When I was four I was mauled by a pit bull. He quite literally tore the flesh off my face and his tooth was a hairline from crushing my skull, therefore killing me. I remember everything! Except the pain. I just remember my body going into shock when the screen door slammed and next thing I know...he's on top of me chomping down. My aunt and uncle eventually got him off me and the only thing I was worried about was where was my mommy! I didn't even cry. Not a tear. lol

{ten} if you could have any animal as a pet, what would you have?
I wouldn't have any kind of wild animal. My grandma has a few..and I would never be able to try to domesticate a wild creature. But cats are my thing. =)

I've been grumpy lately. All yesterday especially. But honestly, I'm thankful for being alive; able to wake up breathing, seeing, and hearing everyday. A new chance to make things right and make better decisions. 


Throughout the business of our lives, we need to take time out and reflect. Be grateful for LIFE. Stop and "smell the roses". If not everyday, try it once a week. I challenge you.

Thankful

One ~  I am content with who I am. I'm not changing for anyone. I'm being me..Talia. What you see is who you get. 
 
Two ~  I'm thankful for supportive people in my life. I wouldn't make it without you! For the hundred against me, there's one for me. I'm truly grateful for wonderful friends.
 
Three ~  My teddy is the only one I can TRULY count on. One who always listens and doesn't try to fix me. Just hold me through this storm. He gives me courage and strength, all while making me weak at the knees with his wonderful charm! A sweetheart and romantic. And he adores and respects me! I could not ask for better! I look forward to a lifetime of unconditional love from one who'll never betray me. =)
 
Four ~  My nieces Jaylen and Halie are two of the most precious babies EVER! They're so cute and happy. And we love to giggle together. We're a giggly trio when we're together! Jaylen is 2 months and Halie is 6. Even if I'm having a bad day...they always seem to brighten it!
 
Five ~  I'm so very blessed! I feel like Job at times, losing everything and everyone...but I've gained better, trustworthy, relationships. God's timing is perfect. Well it's His divine timing. I've been down for so long and so deep that the only way from here...is up! Looking forward to future blessings!
 
 
There you have it! My Thursday/Friday Five! I challenge you, my readers, to jot down 5 things that have made you feel these words (above) this past week. Go over to Mrs. Gambizzle, grab her button, and link up! It's a rewarding experience.
