    When did you last step outside? What were you doing? This morning coming to work.  It is absolutely gorgeous out and I can't wait for lunch!

    Did you dream last night? I didn't....bummer

    When did you last laugh? last night.  Hubby was telling me an interesting story and then we started cracking up walking through the grocery story last night.  I so needed it!

    If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? Anywhere with a beach....I'm a simple girl....Hawaii would be perfect or Malibu

    If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what is the first thing you'd spend money on? Plane tickets!  I want/need a vacation soooooo baaaaaadddd!

    Tell me something about you that most people don't know.  I am seriously thinking about doing a boudior shoot, but just can't seem to make the call yet....

    Do you like to dance? LOVE TO!!!  I danced for 12 years all the ballet, tap, jazz stuff and I miss that kind of dancing a lot.  I love to dance at weddings though and even managed to get my hubby out on the floor for our wedding.  Mission accomplished!

    If you could change something about your home, without worry about expense or mess, what would you do? finish the basement.  we bought it unfinished on purpose, because we want to do it our way, but it takes a lot of money that our poor little checkbook can't keep up with right now!

    Would you go bungee jumping or sky diving? sky diving. I would love to have the courage to do this.  My cousin just recently did and I am so jealous

    Do you have a garden? not yet

    If you could eat lunch with one famous person, who would it be? I would love to have lunch with Julia Roberts.  Beautiful, smart and funny.  Who wouldn't?

    Which store would you choose to max out your credit card? aahh...so many to choose.  Right now, any clothing store.  I am getting in the mood to pull out all the fall clothes and am just in the spirit to go shopping!

    Are you an organ donor? absolutely

    What's under your bed? nothing...I hate bedding skirts so I would rather see our beautiful wood furniture, so that comes with a cost!

    If you had A Big Win in the Lottery, how long would you wait to tell people? Hubby just actually won a decent amount a couple of weeks ago.  Haven't told a sole...it's like our own little secret.  Trying to figure out how to surprise my sister and go visit her and her crew!

    What did you want to be when you grew up? ballet dancer

    What kind of books do you like to read?  murder/mystery

    How far away from your birthplace do you live now? about 400 miles, but still in the town I grew up in

    What Inspires You? people....namely my parents and my husband.  They have all taught me so much and make me want to be better at everything I do.  They are the reason I am here and he is the reason I love being here!

  • O me first!

    Stretch your left arm out as far as you can, What can you touch? The scanner on my desk

    Did you dream last night? I did. And it was confusing. One of those dreams you wish you didnt have

    When did you last laugh? Just a little while ago. The girls at work crack me up!

    If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? Anywhere on the beach in the Caribbean!!

    If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what is the first thing you'd spend money on? Jeez, thats a tricky one.. Honestly, I'd probably go to some fast food place and get food!! LOL then I would pay off my Land Rover!

    Tell me something about you that most people don't know. I was in a really bad car wreck 6 years ago. I almost (should have) died. My boyfriend at the time was driving and he died instantly. I saw him in the driver seat next to me after it happened. That was the last time I ever saw him. That car wreck changed my life.

    Do you like to dance? Yes when I have liquid courage!! :)

    If you could change something about your home, without worry about expense or mess, what would you do? Nothing! I changed it to exactly how I wanted it after I got married and kept my maiden name as my second middle name. And so glad I did!

    Would you go bungee jumping or sky diving? I would have to spend a lot of time seriously thinking about it before I did it. I'm petrified of heights!!!!

    Do you have a garden? NO :( I have NO green thumb. Though I really wish I did

    If you could eat lunch with one famous person, who would it be? Well, she's passed but it would be Marilyn Monroe. Alive, Ian Somerhalder. There would be more of me drooling over him during the lunch than conversation.

    Which store would you choose to max out your credit card? Hm, I'm a real bargain shopper so I dont really have a 'favorite' store other than Ross. It give me anxiety to spend a lot of money on one clothing item.

    Are you an organ donor? No

    What's under your bed? Nothing!! Except my dog Tinkerbelle at night. She loves sleeping under there.

    If you had A Big Win in the Lottery, how long would you wait to tell people? Well parents would know immediately. And then once we got all the details set, I think thats when I would tell only my best friends.

  • What is your first name? Kim

    Stretch your left arm out as far as you can, What can you touch? The monitor.

    When did you last step outside? What were you doing? Last night around 10:00 PM. I was coming home from classes. 

    Did you dream last night? Don't remember.

    When did you last laugh? Last night, DH and I were laughing at our dog.  He was just being cute.

    If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?  Probably here, in Atlanta.  I like being close to family. 

    If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what is the first thing you'd spend money on?  A new house.

    Tell me something about you that most people don't know.  People think I'm an extrovert because I'm friendly and outgoing.  But, I'm actually an introvert.  I cherish my alone time and really feel rejuventated after being alone for awhile.

    Do you like to dance? Yes, I love to.  But, I'm not good.

    If you could change something about your home, without worry about expense or mess, what would you do?  We're in a tiny condo, so I would move.  We have no space, it is frustrating (to put it lightly). 

    Would you go bungee jumping or sky diving?  I've been bungee jumping.  I was scheduled to go sky diving with my friend in 2008 (for our 30th bdays).  We were at the place ready to go when the plane landed.  But, the man and his tandem guy right before us died.  Their chute didn't open.  It was one of the scariest moments of my life, kind of surreal.  Although I know it was a freak accident, having it so close has made me scared of sky diving, and I've promised my family I'll never go. 

    Do you have a garden? No, I wish I had a green thumb, but I don't.

    If you could eat lunch with one famous person, who would it be?  Bradley Cooper, just so I could look at him.  (I'm so deep, lol). 

    Which store would you choose to max out your credit card? Crate and Barrel

    Are you an organ donor? yes

    What's under your bed? suit cases, stuff from the wedding

    If you had A Big Win in the Lottery, how long would you wait to tell people?  My close family and friends would know within the hour.  I'm bad at secrets. :)

    What did you want to be when you grew up? a lawyer

    What kind of books do you like to read? mostly memoirs or historical fiction

    How far away from your birthplace do you live now?  10 hour car ride or a few hour flight.  (Toledo, Ohio to Atlanta, GA).

    What Inspires You?  People who follow their passions in life.
