1. When you were 6 years old, what did you want to be when you grew up? A pediatrician. And a dancer

2. What is your biggest fear or phobia? Being physically assaulted. People and their ability to do harm to others really weirds me out.

3. What's for dinner tonight? Not sure. K does 95% of the cooking in our house. Not because I can't or dont like to, but she's pickier. I'll plan a great meal and at 4pm she'll say "I dont really FEEL like that anymore". I grew up in a house where "this isn't a restaurant. you tell your mother thank you for making supper, not complain about what she made". So, I'll eat anything she makes - doesn't bother me one bit

1. When you were 6 years old, what did you want to be when you grew up?
A teacher.

]2. What is your biggest fear or phobia?
Something happening to DS. I think that's pretty obvious, so other than that not being able to breathe or running out of air. More specifically being stuck in a burning building, drowning, choking/ being choked, ect.

]3. What's for dinner tonight?
I have no idea lol. Usually I have a weekly meal plan but this week (and next) I don't. I feel so unorganized.

1. When you were 6 years old, what did you want to be when you grew up? I can't really remember. I think I wanted to be a vet, or a singer, or an actress. I wanted to be a vet for a long time though. I don't really know why, I don't even really like animals all that much.


2. What is your biggest fear or phobia? Dying without having had lived enough. That's my only real fear, and I've had it for a very long time.


3. What's for dinner tonight? I think we have venison stakes in the fridge, so probably those, with some cabbage.

1. When I was 4, my father taught me the best answer to this question. Whenever a teacher asked me "what do you want to be when you grow up?", I answered "independently wealthy". Truly, I think I wanted to be a singer...as far back as I can remember.

2. I'm scared shitless of birds. I know that seems totally stupid. I can deal with snakes, spiders, rats...but keep the flipping birds away from me. I got into a tangle as a kid with a bird - never recovered!

3. Leftovers. I made a WW version of Olive Garden's Chichen Gnocchi soup last night. I also have some fresh made sausage cooked in the fridge. One or the other.

1. When you were 6 years old, what did you want to be when you grew up? An accountant from about 6 until my first accounting class in college.


2. What is your biggest fear or phobia? Dying young and not having my theoretical children remember me


3. What's for dinner tonight?The plan was to have grilled chicken salad, but I forgot my lunch of stuffed shells from last night, so I will probably just have that instead.

crazyaunt84--- that soup sounds really good!

1) a fighter pilot. I was in love with Top Gun at the time. I'm pretty sure no one in their right mind would let me ever pilot a plane.

2) dd dying. Also me getting cancer and dying and C not remembering me,

3) chicken..... And rice maybe. Chicken and something. We are low on veggies. May make a store run later

[crazyaunt84]

mahler5 - it actually turned out wonderfully.

1. When you were 6 years old, what did you want to be when you grew up? Can't remember, but my best guess is ballet dancer and/or teacher


2. What is your biggest fear or phobia? Losing a loved one. I can't even imagine living without my partner, or mom, or (god forbid) my child. The worst part is that I most likely will lose my mom one day. Hopefully it will be so far in the future that I'll have time to come to terms with it, but IDK. Can you ever come to terms with losing a loved one?


3. What's for dinner tonight? P-I-Z-Z-A! I have a dinner meeting tonight and the hostess just emailed to say she'll be ordering pizza, yessss. Not sure what SO and LO will be having... maybe spaghetti

[wittyandwaiting]

1. A florist. I still love flowers.

2. I am irrationally afraid of bleeding to death. I'm not afraid of blood or doing first aid on others but the sight of my own blood worries me.

3. Seafood pasta!

[mrsnorris]

1. A teacher.

2. Medical procedures of any kind. Pregnancy and childbirth were super fun for me.

3. Mini veggie pizzas and salad.

1. When you were 6 years old, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I think either an actress or the president.

2. What is your biggest fear or phobia?
There are a few things that freak me out. I freak out in a big way about my teeth: if they hurt, in my mind they are all going to fall out, or I need a root canal, or something. I have nightmares about my teeth falling out when I'm really stressed.

When I was having major surgery last year, though, my fears boiled down to this: That I would die on the table, and Sweetie somehow wouldn't know how much I love her. When my cat died, I was afraid that she died without knowing how loved she was. I'm crying now just thinking about it.

3. What's for dinner tonight?
We thought if we ate fast we might go work out, so I had an open-faced peanut butter, banana and honey sandwich on a bagel. It was heavenly. We aren't working out. Oh well.

I didnt know at 6 what I wanted to be, and Im still suffering from the same problem. Firefighter was often what I chose.

I have the usual greatest fear. That I will die or fall off a ladder and LO wont be able to get to my phone or be sitting there next to me alone, eating out of the refrigerator. Horrible. Im getting a landline (again) this week just because of that.

Dinner. LO ate some spinach ravioli, some hamburger, some fried rice. Minimal vegetables in all. I ate some burning hot lentils. Dinner kind of sucked, I need to grocery shop.
