1. What is your favorite charity? Do you you give your time or just money to that charity?
Project Linus - Blankets for Kid's without Blankets. When Liam was hospitalized in Feb.08 we went straight from the Dr's office to the hospital and right from emergency into a room. We didn't have any clothes with us and the blankets we brought had spit up on them and got stinky really fast. The nurses brought us a blanket from Project Linus and it was beautiful, soft white wool and liam loved it.
There is a lady at my office who crochets and we have a crochet date on Monday at lunch where I'm going to start my first project - a blanket for Liam. After I make the first blanket, I'll start making more and donating to Project Linus.
The only other charity I financially support is the United Way through my work, my donations are monetary. Until my separation, the donations were automatically deducted off my pay. After my separation when things got financially tight, I decided to give a one-off donation that covered the whole year.
2. Describe your bed. What side do you sleep on?
This is a funny question because I'm weird about the bed. It always has to be made in the morning and if its isn't, it will bug me all day. There is something I just love about crawling into a fully made bed at night before sleeping. The crispness of the sheets... I'm not sure. It just feels luxurious.
Its a king size pillow top bed and I sleep on the right (if you're laying down) or the left (if you're staring at it from the foot of the bed). It has a lime green dust ruffle and a dark brown fitted sheet over the bottom mattress. The bed is made with a fitted sheet, then a top sheet, then the duvet. Two pillows have shams, two small neck pillows are made of micro-fiber and there are two large 'rolled' pillows with tied ends. Then we each have our own pillow that we sleep on. I absolutely love my bed, it was very expensive and has a 25 year warranty. Daweski calls it the pillow bed because its like sleeping on a cloud.
3. Did your parents have a "birds & bees" talk with you? If so, at what age?
They sort of did. I was in Grade 4 when I learned about sex from my friend's house. Her dad had a dirty magazine that we found. I remember being very upset with the content in it. Up until that point I thought that babies were made when a man gave a woman a pill and she swallowed it. In the magazine there was a section where the woman was giving the guy head and the caption underneath said "Mmmm, it tastes like candy". At home, after that visit (before bed), I asked my mom if it was true the penis's tasted like candy. I remember her stopping at my door frame and looking at me with shock then saying "Where did you hear that?" She came to sit beside my bed. Some embarrassing pointed questions later and we were in the middle of "the talk". I don't think my Dad and I ever had the same kind of talk (thank goodness).
4. What is one thing someone could do to you to rock your world?
Put other people first. That always rocks my world.
