"Often people attempt to live their lives backwards; they try to have more things, or more money in order to do more of what they want so they will be happier. They way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then do what you need to do in order to have what you want." - Margaret Young

I borrowed this meme from Bex who had read this one from L'empress A Place of My Own so here goes mine:
1. EVER BEEN GIVEN OR RECEIVED AN ENGAGEMENT RING?
Yes, my son's father game a single solitaire ring with the diamond coming from the hills of Maine.
My second ring was from Michael and it is a Black Hills Fools Gold band. We both got similar rings when we were in Sturgis, South Dakota. It was the 60th Rally Week. This was in August 2000. This makes that we were engaged for seven plus years before we arrived at marriage in February 2008.
Only now with the water retention due to medications, I cannot wear the ring on my ring finger. I have given thought to have it resized. Though what if I lose this water and the ring will not fit my finger again.
2. LONGEST RELATIONSHIP?
My longest relationship is with my best friend Lady C at 23 years but then right behind her is Michael at 19+ years.
3. LAST GIFT YOU RECEIVED?
A DVD of "Call the Midwife," this is in queue of "need to be watched." A gift box of seasonings that are so good, both Michael and I said we could sit down with a spoon and the jar and eat the seasoning just like that.
4. EVER DROPPED A MOBILE PHONE?
Yeah, it hopped out of my jeans pocket and did a dive into the toilet bowl. When I told the customer service person of our carrier at the time, there was dead silence on the phone. I've only done that once.
5. WHEN'S THE LAST TIME YOU WORKED OUT?
Yesterday, I went for a walk at a mile and two tenths. I was also carrying around a medium-sized cast iron skillet, frames, glasses, ice trays, a plastic bowl, and some nail polishes. What was I thinking?
6. THING(S) YOU SPEND A LOT OF MONEY ON?
Things my cat, Bailey, needs such as dried food, litter box litter, flea medications. Anything that makes his life better.
7. LAST FOOD YOU ATE?
EnviroKids organic Crispy Rice - Chocolate. I've had better.
8. FIRST THING YOU NOTICE ABOUT THE OPPOSITE SEX?
