Good Morning Dawn.
These are some really thought provoking questions, but good ones though.
1. My last brilliant moment?
I hate to say this , but I can't remember ever having a moment like that. Since I have been overweight since early childhood I don't think I've ever really allowed myself that gift. I was always too busy thinking about how my weight was affecting whatever situation I was in at the time. That's all about to change though.
2. Celebrity husband look-a-like?
Everyone tells me that my husband looks like John Ritter. Even my husband thinks so, but I just don't see it. Go figure.
3. Favorite Quote - (Really one of many for me)
"If you don't like something change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude. Don't complain about it." -- Maya Angelou
4. Something nice done for me yesterday?
Hubby put gas in my car without my having to ask.
5. Betrayal of trust?
This is a very difficult question for me to answer because the thought of it cuts deep into my heart even to this day. All I can say is that a friend of mine that I had know since highschool betrayed my trust in way that truly makes it hard for me to trust even now. Oh, I do trust but will never again the way that I once did.
1. boy that is hard. i have no idea how to answer this one. i guess i take great moments for granted.
2.hubby resembles oliver hardy. in fact he clowns as ollie. he looks just like him and has a big heart to match.
3 favorite quote? after sons problems last nite i guess it would be....now i know why some animals eat their young. he teaches me patience and grace.
4. hubby picked me up a lottery ticket after hearing about my day.
5. lost of trust.....i guess it is in the education system daughter is trying so hard and we cant get student loans cuz i had a default and hubby has not so great credit. she deserves better than this.
1.When my family is all together. this is deep question. couldnt think!!
2.He is identical to dale ernhart(cant spell his name). Everyone comes up to him and tells him that.lol makes his head big...
3.What goes around, comes around
4.My girlfriend let me borrow some money to put a down payment on our house until our loan was approved. It was a repo home and went on the market quicker than it was supposed to and HAD to have it THEN...Even though we payed her back in two days, she was great.
5.My so called family getting all my moms belongings when she died and me and my sister didnt get squat because we were only 15.. Family????

1. Speaking at the World Burn Congress, I was one of three on a panel, after I finished I received a standing ovation (the only person on the panel to get that).
2. Don't have one.
3. I have two: "Poor planning on your part does not make it an emergency on my part." -Author Unknown. And my own; "remember to love with all your heart, laugh from your soul, relax but not for too long, there is always work to be done, find true love and give yourself completely, but don't give too much of yourself, or you might loose yourself in the process, give your all, but do not give up. And remember to "SMILE: Stand strong, Maintain your Integrity, Love, laugh, and Enjoy your Life!!!
Pass it on, smiling can be contagious!"
4. When I was getting ready to go to college I did not have enough money for the things I needed, I wrote letters to different business and Bruce Nordstrom of Nordstrom's Department Stores sent me a laptop computer. 1 year later the monitor burned out, I wrote to him asking for help getting it fixed, he in turn sent me a brand new Dell Laptop.
5. My father, he was an absentee dad, he would make a lot of promises and never keep them, we are trying to re-build our relationship however I still have a hard time trusting him.
Oops, I missed understood
4. Yesterday the nicest thing someone did for me would be my mom I was not feeling well and she was really, really sick, but she let me sleep and she went to the store to get me food. My mom is the best, she does things like that for me all the time, and she is always sacrificing for me, no matter how old I get.
1. My last brillant moment was Monday. I woke up and decided to try on a pair of old jeans and they fit. I have not worn them in over a year. I am pre op but I have lost 38 lbs. I just stood there in the mirror smiling for about 5 minutes.
2. My partner looks like... I HAVE NO CLUE!
3. My favorite quote.. Thoes who think they know everything, have a lot to learn.
4. The nicest thing someone did... My partner does not pass two words when I need something. Me not working after gaining up to 450 lbs, she never passed 2 words when me or my daughter needed something. My surgeon is 1 1/2 hours away and she just says "OK" when I tell her I have to go again. In other words "Support me through this journey"
5. Biggest lost of trust.. My ex stold from me.
EVERYONE HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND

!. What was your last brilliant moment(A small moment in time where everything is perfect and it seems time stops so you can enjoy it.)
I can't really answer this one. I'm sorry ladies my children have been home from school for the last two and throw in the very needy 8month old I'm watching and it's a recipe for disaster. I'm spent..I swear I'm ready to commit myself!! My husband has the nerve to tell me my job isn't hard??? If I had a moment it passed me by when I wasn't looking..
2.What celebrity does your husband or significant other most resemble.
I don't know about this one..I can't think of anyone that he looks like.
3.What is your favorite quote?
You have to give a little to get a little....
4.What was the nicest thing someone did for you?
That would definitely have to be my Great Aunt buying my husband, myself and my children plane tickets home for Christmas!
5.What was your biggest lost of trust?
Well, I guess I can share this with you girls.(this was 4 yrs ago) My husband had a set of directions in our car and tried to tell me they were to a bike shop and they ended up being to some woman's house he met over the net. To this day he claims he never followed through with it because he felt so guilty. When I found everything it was like a punch in the stomach, I literally couldn't breathe.
