FMM: Three Things

1. Three of your favorite movies:

- Hope Floats
- Pride & Prejudice
- Silence of the Lambs (can’t help it)

2. Three of your favorite things to drink:

- Water – since it’s mostly all I drink now.
- Fresh orange juice
- Vodka

3. Three of your favorite songs:

This is gonna get me picked on!

- Tight Fittin’ Jeans – Conway Twitty
- Redneck girl – Bellamy Brothers
- You have to right to remain silent – Perfect Stranger

…and anything by Sawyer Brown.

4. Three people who have recently been a positive influence on your life (outside of your family):

- Tara Fisher – she believes in reaching out to those who are hurting, she is real and authentic and she has the best front porch in the world!

- Jenny Hewitt – because she taught me what a REAL best friend is. I’m still amazed out how our friendship began. Jenny had said something jokingly that hit a very tender cord with me and I took an immediate dislike to her. A while later, Jenny was going through something and I just happened to be there; in my attempt to comfort her I told her that I didn’t like her. Somehow that blossomed in to the most amazing friendship I’ve ever known. I am so blessed to have her in my life.

- “H” – my trainer, without him I’m not sure I would be where I am now physically. I’ve come to appreciate a lot of the things he says and how he looks at things. He always pushes me a little further than I think I can go and I’m thankful for it.

- Cindy - she is extremely motivational and encouraging.

5. Three things you to do keep yourself entertained:

- Listen to music – almost constantly.
- Reading – not as bad as the music, but close. J
- Writing – my passion.

6. Three things you’re attracted to in the opposite sex:

This is not easy!!!
- They gotta have a butt – it’s a must.
- I like nice teeth.
- Strong arms & a slightly hair chest.
7. Three things you love about yourself:
- My eyes – they are the one thing people usually compliment me on and I gotta say “blue” eyes rock!
- I’m starting to love the way my arms look.
- I don’t quit, very determined.

8. The last three people who text messaged you:
- Katrina – my neighbor.
- Jessica – another neighbor.
- David – my husband.

9. Three things you’re looking forward to this week:

- To have a Garmin Forerunner
11. Three of your favorite quotes:

This should be easy…since I collect them!

- “God’s love is irrational and unconditional. That means he loves you even when you’re stupid and he will continue to love you even though he knows you’ll be stupid again.”

- There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle. – Albert Einstein.

- No one can make you feel inferior without your consent – Eleanor Roosevelt.

- Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.' We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we're liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others – Marianne Williamson

12. Three of your biggest fears:

- Losing my children
- Losing my husband
- something happening to me that causes me not to be here for my husband and children.

- The Biggest Loser (this is pretty much the only thing I watch)

- Medium

- What not to wear

16. Three things that you always have in your bag or close to you if you’re not a purse kind of person.

- Wallet & Chapstick

17. Three types of food that you wouldn’t want to give up.

- Pizza (I don’t eat it as much as I used to and I’m making healthier versions)
- Pickles (not happening)
- Cheese (Lent was hard enough!)

18. Three things you do to enjoy burning calories:

- Personal Training - I like the weights!
- HIIT - I like to race the clock!
- Running - I like to see what I am capable of.

19. Three things you dislike about blogging:

20. Three ways blogging has changed your life:

- It gives me an outlet.
- It can keep me accountable…when I finally sit down and blog about it. It might be written on paper or all planned out in my head, but it doesn’t always make it to publication.
- It can allow you to make new friends.

Now it’s your turn to answer the questions! Don’t forget to come back and link up in the comments, and have a happy Monday!

Those questions took a little more thinking than I expected! Now, I'm off to bed before I stay up all night and blog to you my frustrations of feeding my family...
