Fill in the blanks...

I was recently tagged by Him Up North on a meme that he'd completed on his blog. Today is grey and miserable and I've not got a lot of get up and go as yet (it's 8am) so I thought I'd break myself into the day slowly by "filling in the blanks" as I was requested!

Memes are not always easy and even though this has the simplest of questions, they are ones that could be quite revealing - in either a good or bad way I guess!  Here goes...

I am a bitch, I'm a lover, I'm a child, I'm a mother, I'm a sinner, I'm a saint, I do not feel ashamed. I'm your hell, I'm your dream, I'm nothing in between, you know you wouldn't want it any other way.  I think that probably sums it up quite well actually!

The bravest thing I've ever done is yet to happen!  I can't think of a single brave thing I've done which is frankly quite pants at 31 years of age isn't it? I'm going to make a resolve to be brave!

I feel prettiest when I've had my haircut. When I've been to the hairdressers I always feel smart and a little bit glam. I rarely feel pretty but on these days I feel a whole lot more groomed and it goes a long way to making me feel half-decent!

Something that keeps me awake at night is doing too much "thinking" before bed. Like working on the family tree, that keeps me awake for hours if I've been stuck on a particular problem. I'll lie there thinking about how I can find out the information.  For this reason I have to stop looking at Ancestry at least an hour before bed.  Thinking about Edward Cullen has also been known to keep me awake at night. Ask Mr M.

My favourite meal is a Christmas dinner or failing that a good roast dinner.  A roast dinner should have the following (please note, this is minimum requirements), a joint of meat, peas, carrots, mashed potato, roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, stuffing, gravy.  A side of cauliflower cheese also goes down well.  At Christmas I would like all of the above except with some fancy sprouts, various condiments, two types of stuffing, sausages wrapped in bacon and of course parsnips.  

The way to my heart is to schmooze me. Talk to me, engage with me, pay attention to what I am saying, respond to me. If you're not really interested in what excites me, at least be gracious. In turn I will do the same for you, you will be schmoozed to within an inch of your life.  I'd like to think that I'm not egotistical really but I like to feel that I'm being taken notice of and people who feign interest and don't put a lot of effort back in receive quite short shrift from me.

I would like to be rich, filthy rich, mwahahahahaha! Okay, not really, well clearly I would but....erm the serious answer is I'd like to be content and happy with my lot. I generally am but there's always something to mither over - I wish we had more space, I wish I had a job I loved, should I have more children, I wish I was a stone lighter... I would like to just accept what I have and spend my time concentrating on something more positive but I guess that's just life, huh. Are any of us ever 100% content?

So there you go what does that reveal to you about me? I'm not going to tag anybody specifically in this but please do pick this up if you want to join in and leave me a comment to let me know so I can come read about you!

love & kisses
