Here she is my screen namesake!
I have been totally slacking my royal duties as Meme Princess. So, I have to make up for it now!
I hope you all play along! I have neve seen one like this before!
The Mate Meme
1. Who is your mate?
My mate is my Hubby!
2. How long have you been together?
We met on May 18, 1990, began dating on May 30th, and here we are now, so I guess it is almost 17 and a half years.
3. How long dated?
We dated 4 months and 3 weeks, and then we were engaged.
4. How old is your mate?
42. Ha ha ha. I am still 41.
5. Who eats more?
Hubby by far... the man can eat.
6. Who said "I love you" first?
That is a long story, but it was both of us, as we had a discussion about how we were feeling about each other, so quickly and strongly.
7. Who is taller?
Hubby is 6'3" and I am 5'5". He wins.
8. Who sings better?
Hubby does a great baritone of Elvis' 'I Can't Help Falling in Love' but not much else. I used to be able to sing, but damaged vocal chords mean I croak now. lol
9. Who is smarter?
An ongoing question in my house! LOL If you go by SAT's, and grades, me. If you go by street smarts, him. Let's leave it at that.
10. Whose temper is worse?
Oh Hubby's by far and away... lol
11. Who does the laundry?
Mostly Hubby! Yeah, he rocks.

13. Who sleeps on the right side of the bed?
Facing the headboard while standing at the foot of the bed, I am on the right.
14. Who pays the bills?

My dad! He is the best!
20. Who drives when you are together?

21. Who pays when you go out?
Hubby.
22. Who is most stubborn?

Lori
I love the answers to this... very romantic!! Like the graphics too.... especially the one at the bottom of the entry!!! LOL Inner and OUter demons. That would work in like three of my four entries this week. I am way too stressed this week, but believe it or not, I was more stressed in the last eight weeks than the past few days, even though my entries sound absolutely awful lately with stress details. I have no idea why that is. I must hide what is going on most of the time with lighter talk. Hmmmm. Well, hope you have a great day and a good week!!! Hugs,
Lisa
That was cute! Have a great week!
Hi Dawn,
Great answers. Now that I know your screen namesake, I can share some good news. Disney is putting out a Platinum edition of Sleeping Beauty next year and the disc will have some really cool stuff on it.
Best,
