I am so excited that Jacqui my blog designer and my bloggy BFF chose me to guest host with her this week on her blog hop she does one Monday. I also have a big surprise for everyone on Friday! If you are stopping by from the blog hop please leave a comment and I will follow you back!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am going to finish up the 30 Days of truth that started a long time ago!
Day 23 → Something you wish you had done in your life.
Got married-I could have saved myself money and tons of heartache.
Day 24 → Make a playlist to someone, and explain why you chose all the songs. (Just post the titles and artists and letter)
I guess the one song that comes to my for a lot of people in my life is:
Day 25 → The reason you believe you’re still alive today.
I am not sure on days I am struggling I think it is because god likes to laugh at me but I know it isn’t true. Maybe it is so that I can teach people about MS.
Day 26 → Have you ever thought about giving up on life? If so, when and why?
I have thought about it but I could never do it.
Day 27 → What’s the best thing going for you right now?
My job-Other than that I don’t really have much else going for me
Day 28 → What if you were pregnant or got someone pregnant, what would you do?
I would cry because I don’t want to have to go through it all again.
Day 29 → Something you hope to change about yourself. And why.
My weight and the body issues that I have. I know I will never be perfect but I hope to get to a point where I am happy with how I look.
Day 30 → A letter to yourself, tell yourself EVERYTHING you love about yourself
I don’t want to write a letter to myself right now because I am having a hard time thinking of things I love about myself.
Inspiration
This is Melissa’s post for this week. She asked me not to read it until I posted it. So I am not sure what it is about but I am sure it is good. Enjoy!
Written by Melissa Mashburn of Sugar Filled Emotions
Most of the time when I write, my primary goal is to write about something that I find inspiring. Once I put it all down, I can only hope that my readers find it as inspiring as I do. Today’s post is really no different, except instead of writing about a topic or idea that I find inspiring, I am going to say a few things about a person I find inspiring.
You inspire me because not only do you have to live with all the normal day to day struggles that we all have, you also have some unique physical challenges that you could use justify a life of inactivity. Instead you do the opposite. You make no excuses. You do what you can, which is often more than what someone with a healthy body would/could do.
You are one of the kindest people I know. No matter how you feel, you have a kind word for me.
You are a shining example of strength in the face of difficulties. I admire your courage.
You have such a giving spirit. You are quick to make sure the people around you are doing okay.
You are a beautiful person, inside and out!

1. Do you believe, somewhere deep inside, that blondes do indeed have more fun? That they are “dumber” than brunettes or redheads? Be honest!
They have more guys hit on them and what not. Now I don’t know if they have more fun but they do seem to get more of the guys attention. They aren’t dumber than anyone. The color of your hair doesn’t make you dumb.
2. Which animal would you most like to observe in its wild habitat?
Tigers-They are so pretty and I love them!
3. This week the U.N. announced that Dr. Mazlan Othman has been appointed the official “Alien Ambassador,” should any extraterrestrials contact us. Have you, or has anyone you know, ever seen a UFO?

I don’t know that I have ever seen any of them.

Kohls or JC Penneys
10. Tell me about your first automobile accident.

11. Have you ever been honest when you knew you would benefit more if you would be dishonest?
I always try and be honest even if it means I lose out of stuff.
12. If you were appointed “Ambassador to Aliens,” what would you show and tell first about life on Earth? What would be the most difficult thing to explain?
People here are idiots. I think our holidays and some of the dumb customs that we have.
