15) Had you gotten drunk?THEN: Nope.. I was a good little girl.NOW: Only a few times. Everytime I am with my hubby and he takes care of me. Lots of water, so no hangover. Doesn't take much for me to get tipsy, so I know to avoid it when necessary.
16) What kind of car did you drive?THEN: 1989, Grey, four-door, Ford Escort named Fresno. She died in a fire and the only remainder of her was the steel radials of her tires..NOW: 2000, four-door, white Pontiac Sunfire & a 1991 white, four-door Chevy Lumina named Wilma. I also have a 1967 white Volkswagen Beetle which I haven't rode since I broke my neck.
17) Looking back, are you where you thought you would be in 2006?No. I thought I'd already have a child and that I would have a decent job. Those dreams went out the door when I broke my neck....
Kinda sad, but kinda nice, too. Despite some setbacks, I'm sure things will be just fine. I am extremely blessed just to be alive, somewhat normal and with my hubby/family & friends.
God has blessed me so much!
