Do you have any phobias? Nope.

Have you ever "won" anything? Ummmmm, no. I thought I won 3 nights at the Luxor in Vegas, but it was just a time share pitch. Boooo.

Are you frugal? or use coupons? I try to be smart with our money & use coupons when I trip over them. I just can't seem to justify the time it takes to track down the sales & clip coupons.

Whats your dh's middle name? It's his father's first name & he hates it.

How is your driving? I think I'm a great driver, but my DH might disagree. My biggest issue is that I definitely speed (a lot)... good thing I'm married to a cop.

[Daffodil]

Do you have any phobias?

No...there are things I severely dislike or get nervous about, like talking on the phone, or huge roller-coasters or creepy-crawlies, but no phobias.

Have you ever "won" anything?

I won a school cake-walk once lol

Are you frugal? or use coupons?

I used to be SOOOO frugal!!! Then I got married to Mr. Spendy and it kinda dissipated. I'm trying to get it back but its difficult. The only coupons I seem to be able to keep track of are costco coupons.

How is your driving?

Its good!

Do you have any phobias? hm... I guess just car accidents.
Have you ever "won" anything? nope, guess Im not lucky

Are you frugal? or use coupons? yes, I've been trying really hard to use coupons better and it's been great.

Whats your dh's middle name? Arnold LOL

How is your driving? Im very cautious. I always yell at those who are pulling out in front of me, or speeding, or other things. I've had to tame it because Kaitlyn has picked up on it. LOL

One thing about driving that I hadn't realized before...sometimes its not the driver, its the car. Like hubby had a sports car and that thing literally would not gently speed up. It was either at a standstill or shooting at a high speed. I hated that car! Whenever I had to drive it, I became that annoying person darting in and out of traffic, but only because I was trying to avoid hitting anyone.

I've also driven cars that accelerated SO FREAKIN SLOWLY. Like the car I drove in college, I was getting on the highway and there was this huge semi already on the highway...I had plenty of room, or so I thought. But it kept getting closer and closer and I had my foot pressed all the way down on the accelerated but that darn car just wouldn't speed up quickly!!! Luckily I was able to switch lanes, but after driving those kinds of cars, it really made me appreciate driving a nice, safe, quality car.

Do you have any phobias?
Don't laugh, I seriously have OCD...that being said, here are a few...
Yes...quite a few. My biggest is germs. People make fun of me for this. When I worked where I had to handle money a lot, I actually washed my hands until they bled. I hate germs. Lately, and I know this seems so...weird...I'm TERRIFIED of forgetting Jr. Once we get in the car, and start down the road, I touch his head over the top of the car seat to make sure he's there...

Have you ever "won" anything?
Nothing big....like $40 off of a lottery ticket.

Are you frugal? or use coupons?
Yes, I'm becoming obsessed with couponing.

Whats your dh's middle name? (Dont have to answer if your worried about privacy)
Carlos

How is your driving?
Honestly....I'm not a great driver. But, Carlos makes me worse. I guess my driving scares him, so he's constantly fussing at me, and it gets me scared to death. lol I don't drive unless I have to.

[mommytokem]

Do you have any phobias? Just heights, and dh laughs at me for it.

Have you ever "won" anything? I just won a $200 visa gift card on Mother's Day.

Are you frugal? or use coupons? I've always looked for good deals and have just started using coupons a lot more since they come in the mail along with all the grocery ads.

Whats your dh's middle name? John, it has gone between first and middle name for generations but I broke the cycle because I do not respect all the decisions his dad has made in the past.

How is your driving? Pretty good, I adapt to where I'm living quite easily, I do speed quite a bit too, but I've never been caught.

[.s.o.p.h.]

Do you have any phobias? I dont like being off the ground, that sounds weird. I like to be able to touch the ground if I want to, e.g. planes you cant.

Have you ever "won" anything? Local poker, dancing. Prizes- nah.

Are you frugal? or use coupons? We dont have a lot of coupons here but I do with fuel and I just got an entertainment book which has coupons for restaurants etc. So excited.

Whats your dh's middle name? Benson

How is your driving? I think im decent, others dont. I have pretty bad road rage.

[MelKD]

Do you have any phobias?
1) Flying. I get nervous watching people in an airplane on TV - even worse if the plane is crashing, I get the shakes, my blood pressure skyrockets, and I start getting short of breath. Pretty pathetic, huh? lol 2) The dark. For real. Don't make fun of me lol 3) Any poisonous animal (spiders, snakes, etc) and 4) Crustaceans (crabs, lobsters, shrimp, etc) - they give me the heebie-jeebies! I think it's the buggy eyes, and the spidery legs, and the fact that their skeleton is on the OUTSIDE of their bodies... just creeps me out!!

Have you ever "won" anything?
No, nothing of importance. Well, I won my school spelling bee in 5th grade lol

Are you frugal? or use coupons?
I try, but there's definitely a lot of room for improvement.

Whats your dh's middle name? (Dont have to answer if your worried about privacy)
Wilson (his first name is Brian, his mom was a big Beach Boys fan lol)

How is your driving?
OK, I guess. I rear-ended someone about a year ago, while I was still pregnant, but I was going less than 10 mph lol Oh, and I got my first speeding ticket 8 years ago, and in the meantime, have gotten 7 more (8 total!), 2 of which have been in the past 6 months! lol Soooo... maybe it's not that great, or maybe I'm just great at getting caught! (IN MY OWN DEFENSE - my car's spedometer has been broken for the past 3 years, I have no idea how fast I'm actually going, just kinda try to gage it by the cars around me! lol)

[AndiNW]

Do you have any phobias?
It's not really a phobia, but I don't like feet. I hate if someone's bare feet touch me.

Have you ever "won" anything?
I won a trip to Chicago to see a concert. I won it from the radio. You had to be the 102nd caller to win. The would run the contest every morning while I was driving to teach summer school, so I always tried. Then one day I won! I was on the radio and really nervous that the DJ's would make fun of me. We flew from Toronto to Chicago in a private plane and saw Tragicially Hip, Barenaked Ladies, Kid Rock, Metallica, Stone Temple Pilots and bunch of other bands.
I also won $2000 from a church fundraising lottery.

Are you frugal? or use coupons?
Usually pretty frugal with groceries and I usually buy clothes on sale. But I don't have a problem spending!

Whats your dh's middle name? (Dont have to answer if your worried about privacy)


How is your driving?
Pretty good. DH makes me nervous when I drive with him.

[Hollybear]

Do you have any phobias?
I HATE bugs. Like seriously hate them. I also freak out about the caldera at Yellowstone Park & all the "doomsday" crap freaks me out.

Have you ever "won" anything?
Yes! Most recently we won a 3-night trip to Cabo San Lucas, in April 2009 DH and I went to the casino with my mom and hit $10,000 on a slot machine. When my grandmother was sick in the hospital, I used to sign up to win this quilt that the hospital volunteers had made---I won it. (It was like a $500 quilt!) I've won a couple of pageants. Ohhh when Sean and I were in Texas last September, we went out to eat with my family. There was this "fancy" grill and patio set that you could sign up to win....we won it, but gave it to my parents obviously.

Are you frugal? or use coupons?
I have an Anne Taintor coffee cup that says "Frugal is such an ugly word" (LOL)

I use the coupons in the Costco book sometimes, but that's about it. I got a 2 36 packs of Diet Pepsi last month for $14! I would like to learn to use coupons and have a "stockpile" but I am so specific in what I buy I don't think it would ever work.

Whats your dh's middle name?
Sean, so yes, he goes by his middle name.

How is your driving?
I am a short girl in a fast car. What do you think? (haha) No really, I am not that bad since I had Sophie. I am really cautious when I have her in the car and do a good job of not yelling (and having major road rage)

Although when I was in HS, I did do this (among many other things) /sigh
