Is it Wednesday already?



Is it just me or is time flying by? And it's not just the big things that are flying by anymore. My days are going by so fast that I'm getting dizzy.


Any-who, it's Wednesday which means it's time for another edition of We Want To Know brought to you by Impulsive Addict, Janette, Mamarazzi and me! 


This week Janette is asking the questions and she wants to know...


1.} Everyone seems to have a quirky family situation. What is something unique about your family dynamic? This is really hard and honestly I have no clue. I guess it would be that my husband, my girls and I talk about almost anything. As they get older it's becoming more and more uncomfortable for my hubby. There has been a few times when the topic of boys, boobs and tampons has made him cover his eyes with his fingers, plug his ears with his thumbs and rock back and forth while humming loudly. Poor guy, he doesn't have a fighting chance! 


2.}What is the most stressful aspect to blogging {aside from the network going down}? Finding the time to read all of the blogs I love every day. Really reading their posts and putting thought into the comment I leave. Also, getting back to people who take the time to leave me a thoughtful comment. Some days there's just not enough time for me to do it and I feel guilty. I need to learn to let it go if I can't. 


3.}We all end up on a blog at some point in our day, but name your top three favorite websites you flock to daily {non blog}. I'm on Face-Book multiple times a day. I may visit Twitter but I usually do that on my phone. If I'm looking something up my search engine of choice is Google. I use Gmail for my blog emails but really other than that I'm 
not a big Internet junkie.


4.}What's your sign? Believe in it or not, does any part ring true to you? I'm a Leo and the only thing I know about my sign is that it means I was born sometime in August. My husband is a Capricorn, Honey is also a Leo {we share a birthday} and I have no clue what Peanut is. Is that horrible? I don't put much thought into any of that stuff partially because I just don't have the brain power to retain it but mainly because I believe that God and the choices I make control my life not the alignment of stars. 


5.} Ice cream!! ICE CREAM!! We all scream for ice cream! Name your favorite flavor/brand! Anything but Rock Road {I don't like marshmallows}. No seriously, I will not turn ice cream down. Ever. And if you've been around my blog for any length of time you know that I don't share it either. EVER!


****Bonus questions because Janette is such an over achiever!****


6.} Name the blog you credit for linking up with us today? Well this is awkward{Austin girls, I'm doing the awkward turtle!}...Seriously Shawn.


7.}Suggest a question you want to see in future WWTK's! What a great idea Janette, yes tell us what you'd like to see as a question.  




Now before you set off to answer your questions I need to tell you that I am really sorry that I'm not doing a better job of visiting all of you each week. I'm thrilled that so many of you are linking up and I would love nothing more than to come by and say hi to each of you but dang, that would be an all day event. However, I do promise to come by if you leave me a comment. It may take me a day or two but I'll be by, I swear.

Leo here too!! *bloggie high five*

Have a great Wednesday!!

allstarme said...

I don't really care for Rocky Road either. I like the things in it, just not all together!

Ixy said...

Your comment about faking pregnancy to get ice cream actually brought tears of laughter to my eyes. My husband will never be able to mock me again once I tell him that one. Although one time I forgot my wallet and they didn't make me pay because "we know we'll see you again soon". *red face*

My daughter's not talking yet, but I'm the TMI queen and really believe in honesty with your kids, so my husband is going to have some fingers in his ears moments too!

Nadine Hightower said...

Nope he has no chance!

Amanda said...

That would be my husband's long lost cousin. He'd be the same way if we would have girls. Luckily for him my son and his friends are equally mortified to mention such things.

I totally get the answer to number 2.

ashley said...

Wait!!! this awkward turtle thing is something other people do???? (I may be coming off super weird but asking this.... but do you put your hands on top of each other and move like a swimming turtle, awkwardly of course?)

and if not, ignore my post :) hahaha

Google is the main place I start on the internet wherever I go.. When I was a kid, I used to read my horoscope every day and it never came true, hard to hold stock in that stuff! My hubs says we need to get a male dog b/c he is about to be outnumbered. It will be me and our 2 daughters and dog against him and my son. I'm pullin' for a female dog though.

Jessica said...

Your poor hubby!! haha

Sometimes it takes me a couple of days to get my comments responded back to. Also sometimes I probably reply back when I shouldn't... I have to remember it's not a chat room! ha

I don't believe in the sign stuff either. We had to do a project in college about something I can't even remember ... something about personalities but part was to look up your sign.

I hate Rocky Road as well! YUCK!

Impulsive Addict said...

LOVE your answer to #1. M will end up with all girls too and I see this happening in his future.

I'm a capricorn too. I need to look up M and Emma because I have NO CLUE.


No marshmallows? Not even around a campfire? Maybe you should try again. I bet you'd love them!

Soooooo, I messed up on the "publishing" aspect yesterday and I didn't get it up until after 9 this morning. That stinks.

The Altered Paper said...

Again thank you for the fun Get to Know You Wednesdays! Tee

VandyJ said...

I'm a cusp baby--Leo and Virgo. I read 'em both and take my pick. August birthdays rock--with no other holiday to compete my birthday gives us something to celebrate.
Facebook seems to be a common addiction.

Brittney said...

hahaha who CAN turn down icecream? Not me!!! I am a capricorn but I dont know what it means LOL

K Lind said...

I'm totally with you on the signs thing. I don't even know what my kids are either!! :-) I have a feeling that I will be like your husband. I'm the only lady in a household of boys. I may be the one who is rocking back and forth in the future!

Jen said...

The awkward turtle!!!! Now I'm laughing and coughing again :)

MiMi said...

I don't know what anyone's sign is. My husband, my boys, nada. I know mine just because I used to read 17 Magazine and checked it all the time.

Lightning Bug's Butt said...

And here I thought I was the only person on the planet who hated marshmallows. God, I hate them.

And so I dislike Rocky Road. People act like that stuff is ambrosia. Shut up, RR lovers!

Vivienne @ the V Spot said...

Then you and LBB probably don't like Ambrosia salad either... :)

Ditto on 2 and 4. Hate zodiac hooey.

Wait. Wasn't Austin just last week? I hope so, because my suitcase is still sitting in my room. The time is FLYING by.

McKenzie said...

Your poor hubby! Haha ☺

I will gladly take some of your comments of your hands for you! Don't feel guilty about not having the time to get back to everyone, we don't blame you!

Loved reading your answers!

Brenna said...

Yeah for Leos!!

Miss Angie said...

LOL, you crack me up. Seriously!

It's so hard to put the time into serious reading and commenting, sadly.

Mmmm... Ice cream.

My roommate is a boy, and I am not shy about talking about tampons and boobs and all that stuff, but he's cool with it-thankfully. haha

Brianne said...

I too can't stand Rocky Road!! My dads whole family loves it and we would always have it at family functions. GROSS!!

I held my legs together for two days so that I wouldn't give birth to an Aires. I know that I have issues with Aires men and I didn't want my son to be one!

Coffee Ice Cream for me please!

Did you get gas yet?

lynn said...

I'm not a big fan of marshmallows either so rocky road is out, but I'll eat just about any other kind!

Awkward turtle....I thought that was something my daughter and her friends made up! duh.

Bridget said...

I live with two guys who are comfortable talking about all kinds of things which has me going "lalalalalala I can't hear you!" quite often.

It's okay that you don't like rocky road--I'll just take your serving of it so you can get a kind you do like ;)

Megan Harmeyer said...

Ha! Your poor hubs. I think my hubs is sighing a BIG sigh of relief that we have two boys. LOL

I agree with #2. It's the same here.

I'm not a big Internets addict, either. Other than FB and Blogger, I'm only on for work, really.

I *could* be a Leo, but I'm definitely more of a Virgo. I know what my hubs' sign is and sometimes I know the boys', but generally, I can take it or leave it.

I don't care for Rocky Road, either (it's the nuts for me). Mmmm...ice cream. Now I wish I'd stopped by the store on the way home!

Date Girl said...

The awkward turtle? Now this I have to see!

Aw your poor hubby surrounded by women. You girls should throw in a belch every now and then to make him feel more at home. ;-)

Forgetfulone said...

I believe the same thing about astrological signs. But I do like Rocky Road ice cream! The best, however, is Ben & Jerry's chocolate peanut butter swirl. You have to get it from their store, though. They sell a different one in pints, but it's made with vanilla ice cream, and I'm a chocolate lover.
