What Are Your Favorite Songs To Get Ready To?
Picture this: You’re getting ready for a night on the town. What songs do you choose to help you get ready? Do you have a special playlist or do you just shuffle all your songs and skip if one’s not right?
I have a few songs that I love hearing when I get ready to go out. Or to just get ready for a new day, in the morning. No particular order. Here goes:
10. You Get What You...
Get all this for free at Walgreens this week!
I got all this for free today at Walgreens! There’s a Starbucks coupon in the paper from two weeks ago making the drink free. Then you get a register reward of $.99 when you buy it this week. I used my $.99 to buy this cute toothpick holder and this mustard spreader! Woohoo!

Day #14 If you won the lottery...
Oh man! This is a fun one! I’ve actually had this planned out for quite some time. Every time I buy a lottery ticket, my husband and I have it spent before we get back home!
First things first, I would pay off all of our debt: Cars, students loans, hospital bills,credit cards bills, etc. Then I would give some to our families.
I would then buy a semi-modest house. It would probably...

Day #13 What is your earliest mememory?
They say that you can’t remember anything earlier than 3 years old. I beg to differ. When I was younger than 3, we lived in a house in Maryland. That summer, there was a really bad drought and insects that typically live underground started coming up because they could no longer find water. I remember being in the backyard and these weird red, ant-type things were all over the ground.

Day #12 What's in your fridge?
As you can see, we like using different sauces. We also like milk and beer. Our fridge is pretty standard and normal :)

Day #11 List 15 of your favorite things
This is an easy one. I actually keep a running list of my favorite things on my computer so I can read them when I’m feeling down. It started when I used to be very involved on the SwapBot website. I joined a swap where we all shared 100 of our favorite things. I really enjoyed it and I want to one day make a scrapbook of them for my daughter! These are just a sampling:
15. My daughter

Day #10 What's your best physical feature?
I had a problem thinking of this yesterday morning and I kept putting it off. Then, before I knew it, the day was over! I don’t like thinking of myself like that. Especially just having a baby four months ago, I don’t really feel that pretty anymore. After much deliberation, I think that my best physical feature is my skin. It’s pretty clear and wrinkle-free. I work hard at...

Day #9 What Are Your Worst Habits
Oh man. All of these prompts are so thought-provoking. It’s hard just to pick a few! I’ll bet my husband and family could help me out on this one. Haha!
I am a nail biter/cuticle ripper. I know this is really gross and unsanitary but I really can’t help it. I think it’s because I stress myself out too much. But anyhoo, I am not so bad that I don’t have nails...

Hunger Games (Book and Movie!)
As I recently posted, I am in a book club with a few friends. We meet once a month to discuss and unfortunately, since we’ve started, I haven’t been able to attend a meeting (we’ve been at it for 3 months now). I am excited for the May meeting because I’m enjoying the book but also because I’m really going to make an effort to attend the discussion.
The first book...

Day #8 What is in Your Handbag
I am guilty of carrying around way too much stuff in my bag. I am also guilty of having too MANY bags! Although, a lady really can never have too many handbags…am I right?
Peeking out of the top is my book that we’re reading in our book club: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. So far, so good. I also have a wallet that matches the black rose on the bag (I got a phenomenal deal on...

Day #7 Your Pet Hates (Pet Peeves)
This post should be a good one, as I have a few pet peeves! :) I’ll just list ten though. Again, in no particular order:
10. People who choose favorites and don’t treat others fairly. Everything runs a lot smoother when you just treat everyone as equals.
9. Nosiness (Busy bodies). I don’t even think this needs an explanation! Ha!
8. Rudeness. I’ve found out...

Taste-Just ate a string cheese. I love those.
Smell-My pug. He needs a bath today!
Sight-I see my husband’s collection of Funco action figures. He has the Simpsons , yoda and the V for Vendetta guy.
Hear-I hear my baby bouncing and singing to herself in her...

Day #4 What Are You Afraid Of?
This is a good one. I really have to think. I might ‘big-picture’ this one but also give you some little weird things that scare me too. First, I have an ironic story from my childhood. I used to always have nightmares about our house burning down and all of us dying. It was getting pretty bad and I would scream at night for my mom. Then one day my mom noticed that my bed was up...

Day #3 My Favorite Quotes
We’re on Day #3 of the 31 Day Blog Challenge (http://boyboyandme.blogspot.co.uk/). I actually have quite a few favorite quotes. Most of them are song lyrics. I’ll just give you a sampling today. They aren’t all motivational or what have you. Some of them are sad but make you think. I like quotes that bring back memories. The first one is from the Lorax:

Cheap and Easy to Make!
Have you ever tried making your own liquid hand soap? I haven’t until recently. I found the recipe on pinterest so I went and bought all the ingredients. For months now, I’ve been trying to set aside some time to make this soap. I was under the assumption that it would take a ton of time to make not to mention be hard to do and annoying. I was very wrong! Let me take you on a...
