Five Question Friday March 11

1. Do you know what your REAL hair color is?  

Is?  or Was?  Is, I try as hard as I can not to know.  *shudder*  Was, all I have to do is look at Julianna.  Her hair color is amazingly close to mine, at least what mine was when I was younger.  Sadly, I've had to color my hair since I was PTA President at 25 and went gray.  True story.  Probably unrelated though.  Probably.

2. Do you plan ahead for summer, or fly by the seat of your pants?

I'm a planner.  I'd like not to be, I'd love everyday to be unscripted, but my children are blessed with a multitude of wonderful programs and I feel like it's a delicate balancing act trying to make sure they get to take advantage of much of it while at the same time trying to make sure they get a much needed break and the chance to do nothing.

3. What is your favorite meal to cook?

Hmmm, I guess it's usually whatever I'm in the mood for.  Right now I find myself being drawn more and more to recipes for Spaghetti & Meatballs, so I'm guessing those are right around the corner.

4. Do you get offended by not receiving thank yous?

Depends on the situation.  (I'm definitely realizing I'm a shades of gray person.)  If I have sent a gift to someone, I get offended if I don't hear anything.  Give me a call, send me a note, whatever, but take the time to let me know you got it, and hopefully that you like it.  To never hear anything about a gift that I've sent, that offends me.

On the other hand, if I'm sitting there watching you open said gift and we talk then and there, I do not expect a thank you note.

5. How did you meet your best friend?

Husband best friend or other best friend?  I'll save the hubby story for another day, my other best friend I met at our old church.  She's a very outgoing, friendly person, which is a very good thing because I am a huge introvert.
