Pay It Forward game

I entered a contest on Shanna's blog and actually won on Rebecca's so i wanted to play it here:) Aren't you excited!!! Here are the rules:
1. Answer these 3 questions in the comment section of this post.

  • What characteristic does someone you know tell someone else that doesn't know you. For instance: When I tell someone about my husband I almost always say "he is that short Filipino". It doesn't have to be a physical characteristic....it can be your hobby, how many children you have, job, etc.
  • What is your dream job outside of being a mother. What would you love to do if you had unlimited resources(time and money included) and that you could do without it affecting your family.
  • What do you like to spend money on for yourself. Do you splurge on someting just for you?

All who answer will get their names thrown together in a "hat" and I will draw out 4 winners. They will get a prize in the mail! Ohhhh....I love prizes in the mail!

The contest will run until Friday May 30th at midnight!

1) This is hard. I don't know. Maybe that I'm pregnant? But apparently a lot of people still don't know that.
2) I would like to be a pastry chef. First I'd have to go to culinary school.
3) Maybe on clothes? I really don't buy them very often though. I rotate through a cycle of 7 shirts right now. Time to go shopping.

Yay! This is so fun!
1- My characteristic that people usually describe me is 'the mother of the twins'. I went to church in Columbus not long ago, and everyone said 'oh, your the mother of the twins'. I get that a lot! :)

2- My dream job would be working in healthcare, doing training, like training people to use new equipment, training new nurses, whatever. And it would be working at night. :)

3- I splurge on clothes. I used to splurge on nice chocolate, but I've cut that out recently, so now it is clothes. And stuff for the house, like paint and light fixtures and doorknobs. It sounds boring, but I really want it, and it isn't really in the budget, so I guess it counts as a splurge. And it is just for me, since no one else cares! :)

Wow, these were long answers! :)

People would describe me as being the shortest adult that they know and that I always have a smile for everyone.

I would like to have done scientific research on something.

I like to spend money on myself and on others. I like to buy hobby stuff for myself and I like to buy things for others that would make them happy.

Oh goodness, I just typed out really long answers and got an error and lost it. Here I go again

1. I am described as the mother of four boys, or the mother of four boys under six, or that crazy lady with all those boys :) (ok, the last one I just made up, but I get a lot of "looks" that say that.

2. I would love to do some sort of freelance writing. I would definitely have to take some classes first, though.

3. Lately, I have been splurging a little on clothes since I've lost a little weight. If I get to my goal weight I am going to to REALLY splurge on clothes :)

1)The woman with all of those little kids
2)I would love to do something in education - a teacher (elementary) or something in medicine OR something in social work....:) Sorry I can't pick just one...
3)I love to buy books!!!!

Since I enjoy reading your blog so much, I decided I should play.
1. tall with curly, dark blonde hair

2. Dream job?? I always wanted to be a Rockette when I was younger and I thought I could actually dance.

3. I love buying clothes and songs for my MP3 - I have right over 450 songs now. My biggest splurge (in my dreams) would be to go on the Rick Springfield Carnival cruise this fall!

1. "The one with the camera!" is what others would say about me or "She loves to scrapbook"
2. I would love to be a professional photographer and specialize in action shots.
3. I use to spend tons of money on shoes, but all my extra moey goes to food storage and scrappin' supplies!

Sorry it took me so long MK.
I hope you didn't draw the winners yet. It's 10:23pm my time, 11:23pm your time. You can send me a prize anyway. I like prizes in the mail too!
