I hate peanut butter!

No

I currently don't have neighbors.

I'm close to the Poconos. Might literally be the biggest attraction.

6. How old were you when you went to your first funeral?
19?

7. Have you ever received an awful haircut but didn't tell the hairdresser because you didn't want to hurt their feelings?
Yes, 2 appointments ago. It was bad color, not the cut, but the stylist is one of my best friends so I pretended to love it. And the next time she did a fabulous job. Everyone has an off day, right?

10. What is the most afraid you've everbeen? (Storm? Car wreck? Missing child?)
The other day. Kiddo having a meltdown, and there is absolutely no help.
It's pretty much every day now and it's beyond frightening while it's happening and exhausting when it's over.

#10 - Yikes!! (((Sunny)))
#10. That's horrific. I'm glad you got help (or help found you) and that you now have a gun for protection. I'm sorry that happened to you.
I'm sure I'd have been killed if my friend hadn't been driving through the neighborhood at the time. His name was Greg. He died after a horrible head injury after he was thrown from the back of a truck several years after he saved my life.
Still haven't bought that gun yet......I still need to take a course.
Thanks.....I'm sorry it happened to me too.....The court didn't do anything, and the case was dropped because the DA forgot to subpoena my friend.....so a few weeks later, my brother, my uncle, and another friend found the guy out alone one late night, and applied their own brand of mountain justice. It was a long time before I would stay alone again, and I still don't like to.
It was a long time ago, and I try not to talk about it very often.

Oh, my bad, I thought you said you bought a gun because of the crime and robberies you were witnessing in your area.

Will you promise to help me with target practice?
If you do seek out training, try to find an instructor who includes handgun retention as well as targeting. Knowing how to keep someone from taking your handgun is very important also. Most handgun battles take place at five to ten yards, which means you have less than two seconds to assess the situation, bring your weapon to bare and fire before said bad person can close that distance, just something to consider ma'am. Stay safe.
