    1. How long do you plan to TTA? 
    2 years or more, maybe forever. 

    2. What methods are you using to TTA? 
    Condoms

    3. How do you feel about TTA? 
    Good. Though I do keep wondering if we will TTC again. Some days I think so, some I don't. 

    4. What is your dream vacation? 
    Right now - I would like to go somewhere relaxing where I can just chill out, drink and nap. Maybe with some interesting sights to see and good food. Not too hot or too cold. 

    5. What are three things you use daily you can't live without? 
    Phone, car, dishwasher

    6. What color would you be and why? 
    I don't know. Blue is my favorite. But I think I am probably pink. I have kind of a pink hue :-) 

    7. Favorite summer treat? 
    Hawaiian shaved ice.

    8. What do you dip your fries in? 
    Ranch or ketchup

    9. If you could send anonymous poop to 1 person, who would it be and why? 
    I have someone who I really dislike. It is a long story. 

    I was an adult volunteer for a girls youth group. One of the girls was/is gay and one of the moms of one of the other girls decided to make a big deal out of this. The mom expected us to treat the gay girl differently. 

    My sister is gay, so I think I am a little more sensitive to these types of things than most. Plus she went through a lot right at the same age as these girls, so I really felt for the gay girl.

    I am proud to say that I was able to shield this girl from this toxic mom/adult. 

    This mom did/does other things which are crazy as well (think toddlers and tiaras mom - as far as how she treats her kid). 

    Anyway, I would send it to her (a million times over)!

    10. Any questions for next time? 
    :-)

  • 1. How long do you plan to TTA? Until May/June 2015.

    2. What methods are you using to TTA? Mirena

    3. How do you feel about TTA? I'm feeling pretty good about it this week.  I always seem to get pokes from the green-eyed monster when I learn another friend is PG, but I know my time will come.  

    4. What is your dream vacation? Oooooh...multiple weeks traveling through Britain and Europe.  DH & I keep talking about how to do this, but it's pricey...

    5. What are three things you use daily you can't live without? Hmmm...probably my face wash, my iPod (I need my music!), and my coffee maker.

    6. What color would you be and why? I'd probably be a shade of yellow (not too bright, but not murky - kind of gold-ish) because I have a pretty happy personality, I love the color, and who can't feel happy when they see the color yellow?  :)

    7. Favorite summer treat? Sweet: anything with ice cream.  Savory: FRIED GREEN TOMATOES...they are even better when you grow them yourself.  :)

    8. What do you dip your fries in? Usually nothing, but if the fries aren't seasoned well, I have been known to dip them in ketchup.

    9. If you could send anonymous poop to 1 person, who would it be and why? Right now, the owner/manager of my former kickboxing place...he's being a d*ck and won't let me out of my contract, even though it's expired and I've done what I was supposed to per the contract.  X(

    10. Any questions for next time? What movie(s) make you all excited?

  • 1. How long do you plan to TTA? Just waiting to finish this cycle, I'm on day 21

    2. What methods are you using to TTA? Last couple times it's been pull out

    3. How do you feel about TTA? I'm SO ready to start trying! 

    4. What is your dream vacation? I'd love to go on a cruise to the Bahamas or to Disney World

    5. What are three things you use daily you can't live without? Phone, car, dishwasher 

    6. What color would you be and why? I think I shall be turquoise because I am an odd ball

    7. Favorite summer treat? ice cream

    8. What do you dip your fries in? ketchup 

    9. If you could send anonymous poop to 1 person, who would it be and why? My SIL because she is a brat and PIA. It would also be funny because she has so many "haters" that she'd never suspect it was me and would talk about it for weeks.

    10. Any questions for next time? Not at the moment, probably think of some later, but I don't think I'll be here for the next one

    10. Any questions for next time?  I love CBH questions. So maybe any baby items you know you want.  Or cloth diapering/disposables? Will you buy clothing second hand or only new?
