This pretty much is my opinion on makeovers.

Makeover? Id have her do me a perm! This house is just a rental so Im not sinking any more time into fixing or upgrading things here.
I keep jumper cables but my truck is a stick so if ever needed, we could push-start it. But the alst time I used them was last summer, I cant believe my daughter sat in her car waiting for someone, with the ignition off and kept her a/c running! Didnt take long for the batter to die. She called me to come 'rescue' her, lol. Typical blonde!
Yes to all 4 questions. Ive won Bingo a few times in my day.

I guess I will take a makeover for my kitchen..That would be an easier task for the fairy than a makeover on me..she probably does not have enough "fairy dust" to help me out

Bonus Question:

Sure, I try to yodel every time I hear someone else do it..Same as trying to whistle that loud ear piercing whistle that I long to master

Extra Credit Question:

Do you carry jumper cables in your vehicle ?

I know how to use jumper cables, but don't carry them in the car..After the flood my battery was run down, because h left my lights on So I used the electric charger we have..

Just for Fun:
Have you ever been to a Drive In Movie ?
Of course I have been to the "passion pit"...I mean drive in movies...I am a child of the 50's
Ever played Bingo ? Yes
Did you win ? No
Can you YoYo ? Yes, but I was never good at it
