1. How do you deal with change? Like it? Not like it?
I have a hard time with change unless it's my idea to change. :) crazy, huh?
2. What is one of the hardest changes you have had to deal with?
Moving to the Gulf Coast of Mississippi from the midwest was a huge culture shock for me.
3. And one of the easiest?
Ahhh, no change is easy for me. LOL!
4. What would you like to change about yourself?
My lack of commitment to a healthy diet/exercise program.
5. What would you like to change about where you live?
I love our house, just wish we didn't have neighbors so close by - particularly neighbors with barking dogs.
Weekend plans?
Tonight we're either going to watch high school volleyball or soccer, tomorrow we'll watch high school football. My son is being confirmed on Sunday so we'll be at church for a while, and then will have a family dinner somewhere. I hope to veg out on our new patio and finish my book, too. I'm reading My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult. It's very interesting.

First Five For Friday in our new home!
1. How do you deal with change? Like it? Not like it?
I absolutely hate change. It's my anxiety thing. It's always hard for me.
2. What is one of the hardest changes you have had to deal with?
When I moved out on my own. All by myself in my apartment with a new job was very scary. I remember crying to my dad that I wanted to come home. :( He lived three miles away!
3. And one of the easiest?
Getting married!
4. What would you like to change about yourself?
I'd like to take more risks and be more confident about my abilities.
5. What would you like to change about where you live?
The weather! I'd like shorter winters and longer summers.
Weekend plans? Going to a wedding tomorrow!
TGIF everyone, have a great weekend.

First Five For Friday in our new home!
1. How do you deal with change? Like it? Not like it?
I hate change. I'm a routined person and it's really hard for me to deal with change. Sometimes I need a break from the routine, but I'm always glad to get back to it.
2. What is one of the hardest changes you have had to deal with?
Dealing with my Grandmother's death. She and I were so close and my mom and I lived with my grandparents while I was growing up.
3. And one of the easiest?
This had to be when I was finally financially set to live on my own without roommates. Freedom! :upsideq:
4. What would you like to change about yourself?
Obviously, my weight, but I'm also a worry wort. I'd love to just let things happen and not obsess over every detail. :(
5. What would you like to change about where you live?
Visalia is growing which can be good, but what was once a small city, is now getting too big and there's too much traffic anywhere you go these days. More and more housing and shopping centers are going up everyday. I'd like to put a hault on the growth and keep this city a family oriented community.
Weekend plans?
Jay Kenneth Johnson (Phillip Kiriakis) and Brandon Beemer (Shawn Brady) are going to be at a local Health Fair tomorrow and I'm planning on going to that.

First Five For Friday in our new home!
1. How do you deal with change? Like it? Not like it?
I like change and I deal well with it. I just told my friend this morning, "I am in flux which is a good place to be since it also happens to be the only place to be."

2. What is one of the hardest changes you have had to deal with? Hardest, as in "most difficult": Making exercise a priority. Hardest as in "least pleasant": My Sweetheart's death.
3. And one of the easiest?
I woke up one morning in Feb. and just stopped smoking. The end. No problems, no cravings, no nothing.

4. What would you like to change about yourself?
I wish I loved to exercise but if wishes were horses beggars would ride...I just have to do it anyway.

5. What would you like to change about where you live?
I'm changing it...I'd like to be closer to my kids! If my kids lived next door to this place, I wouldn't change a thing.

Weekend plans? Packing some more stuff up.

1. How do you deal with change? Like it? Not like it?
I'm pretty good with change, most of the time it's for the better anyway.
2. What is one of the hardest changes you have had to deal with?
Loss of loved ones. Time does NOT heal all wounds.
3. And one of the easiest?
Parenthood. SO FAR, has been much easier than I imagined it to be.
4. What would you like to change about yourself?
I'd like to get down to the weight that's actually listed on my drivers license! HA~HA! And I'd like to be a LITTLE more laid back.
5. What would you like to change about where you live?
EVERYTHING! We are currently house shopping. We're needing more space, our current home has only 2 bedrooms. We are looking to move out of town, somewhere half-way between my job and my husband's.
Weekend plans?
Dinner out with family tonight. Cousin's V-ball tourney tomorrow. Delivering Grandparents Day cards on Sunday.
