Loved your answers! Wish I knew you when we were young, maybe I wouldn't have been intimidated by calculus. Yes, I knew about your being a rocket scientist and I wanted to be an astronaut, too but I knew with my physique and eyesight, I wouldn't make the cut!

Wow! I loved your answers! Hats off to Lady Maria's questions. They were good ones. Kudos to you for answering honestly, no BS. I've always thought you were a fascinating person to know, and I double that now. My advice to you is to travel! Now, while you have all of your faculties. Don't wait until it's too late. I traveled across the States as a child, and went to England and parts of Europe, as a teenager. I love your image of a Space Shuttle Launch! You dream big and live big, from what I gather. Now, I'll share that pitcher of iced tea with you on your wonderful porch!
Take care, Jesse

    Oh, Jesse -- thank you for those lovely stars and I'm really glad you enjoyed!! They were one of those fun exercises that was a good break from summer 'disorganization' .... I haven't gotten into a 'routine' yet, and it's making my OCD self just a little nutty! ;) :) LOL! And I'll save you a chair on the front porch and we'll drink tea and watch the shadows capture the hills here in the valley at sunset! ;);) Take care! ;) Yvette

    I loved your answers!
    My imagination is sitting on that spare chair on your front porch right now, watching the shadows!
    Have a great week!

I loved reading your answers. I especially like your love for the space program. I followed it from the first with Alan Shepard right on to today.

These were SUCH a delightful read, as I knew they would be with someone who's as Personality-Plus as you!!

I love the kernel about the stores that would call you when they received pieces they knew you'd love!! So fun. (Do you keep your clothes, or regularly rotate them out to make room for more?)

I also love "Blonde is only a hair color ---do not think otherwise!" I have many blonde friends, and they're smart as can be. They say they tend to like that people underestimate them because of their hair color. It gives them an advantage.

Did you notice how similar our answers were about the superpower? It was theme-and-variation.

This was great fun, Yvette. Thanks for the candor. xo

    I certainly don't rotate them as much as I should, but some of it is by default....I love keeping myself in shape (was a 4 before kids and now 6 or 8 are my goto sizes (8 top/6 bottom)....there's always the 'exceptional' 8+ times of life, but because of that I tend to 'hang on' to favorite things...until the fire a few years ago.. :) :) So, even though I've got quite a bit, it's mostly new now.. :) ;)
    I did notice the super-power thing..... that really has made me 'gun shy' when it comes to the trust issue....spreading sunshine is one thing, trusting my feelings/etc with someone other than my mirror? Yeah, that's a different story. Funny thing, it's made me the most solid vault ever when it comes to things folks tell me!! :) ;)
    Glad you enjoyed! ;) ;)
    Will be sortof 'out' this week as mom comes into town this afternoon to spend a week... will check in here and there, but mostly out... take care of you! :) ;) Yvette

I'll be right over to share the tea with you YM. I enjoyed your answers and did learn more about you. I love your dedication to science. You did a great job with the questions. Your picture choice is perfect, too. Thanks for sharing. I like the comment about blonde hair. Jan

All you need is a sign that says, "Come fly with me to the moon," Yvette. :) So you're a astronaut want-to-be. That's cool cause space is the final frontier and I guess we ain't gonna see that. :( I want to walk the stars. Now, I must ask... on number 4 if you're not blonde... can I, ah, ask or see the color package you paint your hair with? :) ;)

    I am blonde - have been since the beginning. Of course, it's gone from that cotton white as a child to a deeper blonde with lots of gray, but it's still blonde. I finally broke down a few years ago and started touching up the whole blonde with a close match to cover the gray...I REFUSE to be gray - just NOT happening. There is the matter of fact that about 8-10 years ago I chose to do the whole under-half in a dark red or purple depending on my mood at the time.... yeah, I'm a bit crazy!! :) ;) So, I have the blonde on top and some shade of red to purple to sometimes deep blue underneath.... and i just love it!! ;) ;) Thanx for asking and thanx for the review, sir -- you take care over there! ;) ;) Yvette :)

I will try and get to these questions, I review early in the morning, but write when I can, in church, listening to sermons, ( I do listen!) in between reviews, never wanted to be a writer. God had other plans! Love your answers, you're not one of the pack Yvette, well done, blessings, Roy hhh

    Wow, Roy!! Those stars are such a wonderful treat! :) :) And here I was just being honest... who says honesty doesn't pay? LOL! LOL! :) I am so very glad you enjoyed a peek into my nutty past... I've always lived by that old mantra of 'Bloom Where You Are Planted' even though it may not be where my dreams would've like to have been.... there's always another tomorrow, right? LOL! :) ;) Take care over/down there, sir, and thank you again for your encouragement! ;) ;) Yvette
