Ok.. here { Ask the Housewife } questions and answers. There a bunch of then so it’s a long post! Click the link below to see the full post!
What happened to your garden? I do not have a green thumb and was really hoping for some help!
I am running so behind with gardening. I wish I was further ahead. Just hang in there with me and we will get going with it. Scott and I are possibly going through some big changes and it might have to be put on the back burner. But we will be working at it and I am afraid I will have to buy more plants already started instead of starting them from seed.. Thank you for following along.. sorry I am running behind.
Are you still going to do some car reviews?
The very short and bold answer is no.. I will not be doing any car reviews. When I came up with the idea, I ran it by my husband who is in the car business and he said Absolutely NO. He thinks it could damage his sales if I said a particular car sucked. He’s right.. it wasn’t a good .idea.
I have read your blog for years, what is going on with your stalker? Are they still bothering you? Anyone who would do that to some one is just a bully! I hope you get them!
Well, I don’t really want to take up much time on this subject. No, I have not been so blessed to get rid of this horrible person. The good thing is they are not in my daily life. No matter what they say, write, or threaten to do, my life continues on. I think its really hard for some people to be happy when others are in a good place. I pay no mind to what they say. It will only bother me if I allow it. I’m human.. and I get my feelings hurt at times but it will never really matter to me what anyone besides my immediate family thinks. They are who matters.. not a coward in hiding. Thank you for your kind words. I don’t tolerate bullies in my life. Never have and never will.
When are you going to have another litter of kittens?
I am hoping we will have 2 Christmas litters. Not sure though. Giving the girls a break for a while but I can’t wait to get a houseful of bouncing kittens again. Its such a joy for me. I also have a new little guy moving in on May 6th!!Super Excited!!
Why don't you have a facebook fan page?
I had one a while ago but I had trouble remembering to update it. So now I just use my own personal facebook page. If you are a blogging friend you are more than welcome to send me a friend request and I will be happy to add you. Add a message with it so I will know you are from the blog. You will find many more updates and pictures via Facebook. I love it more than any other social networking site! I don’t need a fan page.. I prefer friends!
Kisha, do you plan on keeping your hair short or do you plan on growing it out?
I have no idea what I am ever doing with my hair. I love love love cute bobs but my husband prefers longer hair. I am trying to grow it out for him but it drives me crazy! I prefer to keep it up and off my neck.. so I am always in a ponytail.. But I am trying to flat iron it more so it looks good down!
I hate to ask this but do you ever think you will find one blog layout that you are happy with!?
That’s actually a funny statement/question.. I do change them a lot but I ma hoping to keep the one I have up now for a while. If you are a long time reader of this blog, you should recognize it. I just love switching things up sometimes.
How old is your husband?
Husby just had a birthday making him 43 years old!
The couponing posts are really helping me. I love all the freebies you post too. Do you think you will be doing more couponing post?
I try to post deals of the day each day in the afternoons. I use to get asked where I would find all my free samples and the daily post are a great way to share that with you all. I do plan on doing more couponing post but this is not a coupon only blog. There are tons of great coupon blogs out there but this blog is full of things I love and couponing is only a part of that.
What is your favorite foundation at the moment?
I really like the Neutrogena Healthy Skin foundation. I love the Garnier BB Cream too but I tend to reach more for the Health Skin. I love how it looks on my skin.
I see that you write about your family who has passed away a lot, how did your brother die? My brother also died when I was a teenager and still find it really hard to deal with. How do you cope?
Wow.. that’s a hard question to answer. First off, sorry to hear about your loss. Its never easy loosing someone you love. With my brother I was about 19 years old when he died and I didn’t really know how to handle grief. I really just got out of control for a few years before accepting it. Then Scott and I lost a total of 6 family members in a year and a half and that threw me into one of the most horrible depressions ever. With the loss of my grandfather and Uncle I was devastated. Its took prayer and time to get back to normal.. and for a while it took meds. I still feel my grandfather around and I talk to him all the time… and it comforts me. I carry him everywhere I go. I think you have to try to realize that is not forever. One day we will see them again and I take comfort in that.
How are you liking your new phone? I am thinking about getting a Samsung Galaxy S and just curious what you think about it ? Please Share!
I did a post on the new phone I got.. You can get to it by clicking on my youtube link on the right side bar. But I am really liking it. Its still not so easy for me to type on the touch screen. I have compared my Samsung Galaxy S with my moms iphone and I really feel I have the better phone. First off the screen is much bigger. There are tons more apps for the Android than there is for the iphone. My phone does cooler stuff that my moms and I also have some great fonts on my phone that my moms phone doesn’t get. I think with Apple.. they have good products but you are locked only into Apple products, which personally pisses me off. Some people swear by the iphone but I don’t.. And I think I have a better camera than my moms too.. and her’s is a new iphone. So its got all the bells and whistles. I am happy with this Samsung because it does more than I will ever need. Its got one of the best cameras I have ever used on a phone, and the battery is pretty good. I do use my phone a lot so I do have to recharge my battery more but LOVE my phone!
How much money do you save with coupons at the grocery store?
It varies… if I am more prepared I save more. I would say on average I save somewhere around $35 a week. That’s just a guess but even at that.. I am happy!
I loved your tea video!!! Thanx for sharing.. what tea do you recommend above all others?
If you are new to tea I would recommend 2 teas.. First would be a Jasmine Tea which is a green tea that is flavored by the Jasmine flower. I love Whittard but you can always find more brands. Such a calming type of tea. And the other tea I would recommend would be English Breakfast tea.. which is a dark tea. I prefer Whittard for teas.. They are out of of the UK and do ship internationally.. Some places in the US does sell it but I prefer to get it right from the company for a fresher tea.
How do you manage not seeing your kids everyday? I couldn't imagine living that way. It must be painful to live that way for not just you but them too. I hope this isn't too personal but my heart goes out for your family.
It breaks my heart to not see the kids. Its only a temporary situation but I talk to them a million times a day! =) I am still very involved in their lives and they are with me most holidays and summers. They are the loves of my life and I am the proudest mother on the planet. Both of the kids are growing up so fast and I can’t wait to see them in a few weeks! I post a lot o pictures when they are here so come back and you can meet them!
I love your blog!! When will you update your love story. Its been a long time since you have posted anything new.
Thanks!! I know.. running so behind with that but I will try to start working on the finishing the current chapter and working on the next. I will be sure to let everyone know when its up! Thanks so much for reading!
You always are taking vacations, how can you always afford that?
Ha! We can’t!!! Sometimes we make sacrifices for our vacations. Also my mom likes to spoil us with trips sometimes. And with our last trip to New Orleans I found a great deal on the hotel and used coupons at the attractions.
Kisha, I am curious what your favorite all time movie is? I love Pride and Prejudice the most!
I would have to agree with that Pride and Prejudice is one of my all time favorites. I would have to say that that Marie Antoinette is also one of my all time favorites, as well as Emma.. I think Emma is one of the sweetest movies out there! The Young Victorian is also another Great Movie! I’m a movie girl!!
What kind of camera do you use? Any special editing software?
I use a simple Sony Cybershot.. I got it in September 2011 and I am still loving it. I think I paid about $350 for it.. I am hard on cameras and this one has held up to the test so far! I also use my phone a lot for pictures too. I use Windows Movie Maker for my videos and photoshop for my pictures.. Simple Stuff!!
You have a southern accent in your youtube videos, where are you from?
I was born in Louisville Kentucky.. Riased in Indiana but bounced back and forth to Florida in my 20’s.
Does Scott mind that he is on your blog all the time? I am just nosey to see if it ever causes problems for your marriage?
Not really. He doesn’t want ALL our personal information on the blog which is understanding but he really doesn’t mind being on the blog at all. He has a smile that can light up a room and I love putting pictures of him up! He has always been supportive in most things I want to do. He has even done Guest posts on here! At times he calls me up saying where are these pictures where are those pictures? But now he is great at using the labels and finding what he is looking for!!
Thanks so much for sending your questions in.. If you have a question you would like to ask, just send me in an email and I will be happy to answer it!
