Getting to Know You

Time for Keely's Getting to Know You!

1.  If you were stranded on a desert island and could pick one person to be stranded with who would you pick?  Family not included.
I really like Keely's answer, Bear Gillis from Man vs. Wild.  At least I know I would survive that way.  But, assuming I would be able to survive without him I would probably pick a friend of mine from college.  She is absolutely the funniest person I have ever met.  I roomed with her for a year and I am pretty sure I have never laughed more in my life.  It would be crazy fun the two of us on an island together. 

2.  Do you read celebrity gossip?
I don't go looking for it but if I happen to see and interesting headline I'll read it. 

3.  Favorite show you are watching this season?
I am not watching in current shows right now but I am addicted to Law and Order SVU right now.  I have been watching it on Netflix starting with season one.  I just finished season four.

4.  How tall are you?
5'2

5.  What was the last book you read?
Gosh it's been a while since I read a book.  It would probably be Harry Potter or a text book.

6.  Flats or heels?
Flats!!!!

7.  If you had to choose one natural disaster to go through which would you pick: hurricane, tornado, or earthquake?
Probably a hurricane.  I've never been through an earthquake before so I don't know how scary that is.  I have been through both tornadoes and hurricanes and tornadoes are way scarier.

8.  Thong, panties, or granny panties?
Panties.

Five Question Friday

I so look forward to Mama M's Five Question Friday.  I love trying to be creative in answering the questions how I think Belli's would answer.  So here we go again:

1.  What's your comfort food?
Milk with Carnation Instant Breakfast.  If I won't eat anything else in the world just give me my milk and I'm good to go.

2.  Do you send thank yous (handwritten or emailed)?
Nope, I say "bank you" and blow kisses.

3.  If you had to be trapped in a TV show for a month what would it be?
Elmo's Animal Adventures is currently my favorite.  But I call it Elmo's Bencher.

4.  What is your favorite online recipe site?
Recipes?  You have to enjoy eating to like recipes.  Duh!

5.  If you had to choose: Friends of Seinfeld?
My mommy is answering this one for me.  FRIENDS!!!  My mommy is a die hard Friends fan.  She's knows most of the lines to almost all of the shows.  She's actually a bit crazy when it comes to Friends.  But shh!  I didn't say that about her!

Champs

Final Score:  Alabama 37, Texas 21.  ROLL TIDE ROLL.

Impromptu Doctor's Appointment

So for those of you who didn't know we had an appointment with Isabelle's neurosurgeon today because there were some concerns that she was moving her neck more than should be able to.  Most people with the type of fusion that Isabelle has will have absolutely zero motion in their neck.  Isabelle however has been looking down and even side to side some.  The motion is very limited but it was enough to warrant a check up.  We went in and they took some x-rays and from what the doctor saw everything is still in line just like it is supposed to be. 

This, of course, begs the question "Then how is she moving her neck?"

It's a good question.  However, it is a question that we do not know the answer to.  One explanation is that because she has one vertebrae in her c-spine that is not fused that one vertebrae is allowing her that motion.  It could be that because she has Larsen's and her joints are so loose anyway that she has more motion than a typical person would.  It could be a mixture of both of those things or it could be just one of those things you chalk up to God's work.  We may never know but we will take it!

Getting to Know You

Sunday again and time for Keely's "Getting to Know You" blog hop.  Here are this weeks questions and answers...

1.  Where were you born?
Birmingham, AL

2.  Toilet paper: crinkle/crump or fold it?
I pull off the amount of paper I need, wrap it around my hand, then pull it off my hand.  So I guess I fold?

3.  What was the last movie you saw in the theater?
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.

4.  What room do you spend the most time in besides your bedroom?
Living room.

5.  Would you be grossed out if you found out your significant other had not brushed their teeth in four days and you had been kissing them?
Umm...YES!!!!!  That's is disgusting.

6.  Do you fold your underwear?
No.  It takes too much time.

7.  What is one goal you would like to achieve this year?
Pay off my credit card debt.  I have very little debt but it still bugs me and I want it gone!

8.  What is your favorite and least favorite month?
My favorite month is probably October because it is just starting to cool off and the leaves are changing colors but it's not really cold yet.  My least favorite month is probably August.  Mainly because of the heat but it still reminds me of school starting up again and I always hated when that happened.  Plus such hot weather ups the chances of tornadoes around here big time and those freak me out.

Don't forget to head on over to Keely's blog and participate.  All are welcome!

Donuts?  That's food right?  Umm...I don't like food.
