- Do you read or study best in silence or in a place with background noise? I have to have total silence if I really need to concentrate. I am so distracted by anything and everything.
- If you were to write a book about your life, what would it be called ? Hands down ,it would have to be CRAZY IN ALABAMA ! I know, it's a movie..but it is so me.
- Why do you think divorce is so prevalent ? I really think people do not take the commitment very serious. They think , oh well, if it doesn't work out we can just end it.Take it from someone who knows, first hand ,divorce is a last resort. It hurts so many people, not just the ones who are divorcing. My girls have suffered way more than my ex husband or I ever did.I also think EVERYONE should have premarital counseling.
- What is the best way to resist peer pressure ? Be grounded in the word first, second, make up your mind what your decision will be when put in that situation BEFORE you are in the situation.Having three daughters, we always told them,don't wait until you are in the moment to decide..Make up your mind way before ,so you will be prepared. I also used to love to play the game, What if ? with them. Example..What if you were with someone who was smoking pot, what would you do? It used to drive them crazy but it might have helped.
- What is the most serious illness or injury you have ever faced ? I would have to say migraine headaches is mine. I have been better since I had a hysterectomy , but it is a debilitating illness that comes on quickly and is so painful.
- What do you say to someone who is going through a tragic or hard time? I think sometimes words are not needed, but a touch or hug can tell them if you want me to just listen, I am here for you. As if I ever ever been able not to talk..yea..right..This is what I would want to do. I have said some the DUMBEST things to those who are hurting. But, I do believe it is better to say something rather than to ignore a death ,divorce,ect because you do not know what to say.
Loving you.. I just love a mems...

Let me go first since I failed you on the last one...
1. I have to have complete silence which is hard to come by these days!
2. The Doings of Darby (so dumb, nobody would ever read it... I'll have to think of a better one before I publish!)
3. I think people get divorced because they are selfish and it's an easy out... much easier than facing the truth and counseling.
4.What is the best way to resist peer pressure ? Hang out with cool people who don't do dumb things. If you are going to hang out with dumb people who do dumb things you better take cool people with you who don't do dumb things so you aren't standing alone!
5.What is the most serious illness or injury you have ever faced ? Kidney stones (all 3) were killer, thankfully not life threatening, I had pnuemonia last year and spent 3 days in the hospital but the worse pain I've ever been in has to do with childbirth... thanks Eve!
6.What do you say to someone who is going through a tragic or hard time? I'm praying for you! That's about all I can say, unless I've been in their exact same situation, if I haven't my words would be lies if I told them I "understood"!
1. I like it quite
2. One Crazy Lady
Sorry I didn't finish my answers....(now you know what that was my book title
3. Lack of Commitment
4. Surround yourself with good people
5. I guess my husband being so sick several times
6. I will pray for you....I only say I understand what they are going through, if I have been in their shoes!
1. Complete silence. Any noise or shiny thing distracts me.
2. I would have to title my biography "Called Out", because I've always felt that I should not go with the flow of the world.
3. I think that divorce is often the result of someone focusing all their attention on "self". Needs, desires, wants, etc.
4. Peer pressure? Don't subscribe to any fashion magazines.
5. I had a blood clot in one of the veins of my left eye. Could have lost my vision, but God blessed me.
6. I love you.
Robin, I should know this, but what is a "mem?" Help me.
