  • How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are? This was a very confusing question until I saw how other people answered. hah. Mentally, I usually feel more close in relation and outlook to my mom than I do my friends. I'm like Sesh, I am a cranky old lady.

  • How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are? 20.  

    If you had an opportunity to get a message across to a lot of people, what would that message be? Don't hold grudges or find reasons to resent people.  In the end, it only eats at you... not them.

    Are you holding onto something that you need to let go of? Most likely.

    Have you done anything lately worth remembering? Lately? No.

    Do you think crying is a sign of weakness or strength? Both.  Strength in that sometimes you need to let it out to go on and accomplish what needs to be done.  Weakness, if you let a situation get too much of you and wallow in self pity. (If that makes any sense)

    What makes you smile?  Random acts of kindness, cute kiddos, FI, family, friends.

    For real though, I don't think I have ever been this "sappy."  I hope no IRL people see this, they might think I've gone soft.

  • How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?
    During the day, I act middle-aged. At night, though, I'm more like a friggin' 18 year-old.

    If you had an opportunity to get a message across to a lot of people, what would that message be?
    Lately I've wanted to say: it's just rain, people. I promise you the sky is not falling. It is inappropriate for you to be driving 40mph on the freeway with your hazards flashing.

  • PROVOKING YOUR THOUGHTS!

    How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?

    27

    If you had an opportunity to get a message across to a lot of people, what would that message be?

    The crows seemed to be calling his name, thought Caw.

    Are you holding onto something that you need to let go of?

    I worry that I am a bad mom. I also worry that I am turning into my grandmother because everything pisses me off lately. I worry that I am turning into my mom and am going to start menopause in the next couple of years because my mom went through it at 38. I'll be 35 next month. I worry that I  am turning into my dad because I work all of the time. I worry that I am not thankful enough for what I have and that I don't make the effort enjoy my life enough.

    Have you done anything lately worth remembering?

    Not that I can think of. I was asked recently to do another seminar for a local group of people who are out of work or networking. Doing that always makes me feel good because I'm helping people.

    Do you think crying is a sign of weakness or strength?

    It depends on the situation. I don't really think it's a sign of either. It's just kind of something what happens. Now, when my H ugly man cries over the fact that his team lost a foot ball game, that's weakness. Fo sho.

    Would you break a law to save a loved one?

    Sure.

    When you're old as shiit, what will matter to you most?

    Ben. My relationship with H. Humor.

    When was the last time you tried something new?

    Since I started my new job, I've done a ton new things.

    Which activities make you lose track of time?

    Knotting. Creating training programs. Writing communications. Pintrest.

    Time or money?

    That's a tough one. I really don't know.

    What makes you smile?

    My stinky boy. The marmalade joke. Lunch with friends.

    How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?
    23

    If you had an opportunity to get a message across to a lot of people, what would that message be?
    Heirloom vegetables are very important, the food (even organic) that is sold in grocery chains is absolute crap and is ruining the planet, supporting your local community and learning to be self sustaining is the smartest thing you can do for so many reasons.

    Are you holding onto something that you need to let go of?
    Of course.

    Have you done anything lately worth remembering?
    Nope. Most of what I do on a daily basis is pointless and has very little meaning, but I have fun doing it and I think thats more important.

    Do you think crying is a sign of weakness or strength?
    I dont think being emotional = weakness, I think it just means you have heart.

    Would you break a law to save a loved one?
    It really depends on the situation. Id have to say probably not, depending on how they got into that situation and what would happen to me for saving them.

    When you're old as shiit, what will matter to you most?
    My journey, the memories, knowing I did the best I could.

    When was the last time you tried something new?
    My aunt made me eat this weird hard root like vegetable (that looked like a boob) that she got at an asian market, you slice it thin and squeeze lime over it and spice it with some spices. It was gross.

    Which activities make you lose track of time?
    Drinking and playing games, laughing.

    Time or money?
    Since I have more time than money at this point, im going with money. I dont want to live forever, but id love to be rich!

    What makes you smile?
    The absurdity that is life, weird things that happen on a daily basis, life (like... living beings, animals, people, bugs, etc.
  • How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?
    24 - everyone always says I look younger than I am, so I'll make myself younger. ;)

    If you had an opportunity to get a message across to a lot of people, what would that message be?
    Go after that which will make you content. Not happy necessarily, but content.

    Are you holding onto something that you need to let go of?
    Probably. But I try to have a "short memory" and not hold grudges.

    Have you done anything lately worth remembering?
    I was baptized this past weekend. I think that's definitely worth remembering.

    Do you think crying is a sign of weakness or strength?
    Neither. I think it's a sign of passion and caring.

    Would you break a law to save a loved one?
    Minor, probably. Major, doubtful.

    When you're old as shiit, what will matter to you most?
    That I spent time with my loved ones while they were still around.

    When was the last time you tried something new?
    I tried a new clam sauce recipe a couple of weeks ago. It was yummy.

    Which activities make you lose track of time?
    Hanging out with my in-laws, video games, reading.

    Time or money?
    Money. I have lots of time, and not as much money right now.

    What makes you smile?
    DH. He makes me laugh, and smile, and feel truly special every day.
  • How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?
    Around 23

    If you had an opportunity to get a message across to a lot of people, what would that message be?
    That there is always someone out there who loves you.

    Are you holding onto something that you need to let go of?
    Probably. 

    Have you done anything lately worth remembering?
    I hope so.

    Do you think crying is a sign of weakness or strength?
    Depends on the situation. Crying because your boyfriend won't buy you a bunch of nice things - weakness. Crying because your child is graduating - strength. 

    Would you break a law to save a loved one?
    Depends on what kind of saving they need.

    When you're old as shiit, what will matter to you most?
    My daughter and any other future children I might have.

    When was the last time you tried something new?
    Yesterday - took a trip in my car more than an hour away.

    Which activities make you lose track of time?
    Reading, writing, and watching shows.

    Time or money?
    Depends on the situation. In general, though, time.

    What makes you smile?
    My daughter. My fiance's silly jokes. My dog snuggling with me. Cute videos. The little things.
