Hello Aitu4fan
I get that question a lot about editing. I can take it or leave it. I never worreid about my edit. I gave that control up way before I even
started the game. My purpsoe was to show my son, my husband that all I had to do was TRY, I had just a good a chance as anyone to be selected. Another reason for trying was purely selfish. I needed that time for me. I got it. I know there was a lot you all didn't see, like one thing I can tell you and all the others can tell you was that I was a work horse out there. Ask any of them who brought in most of the firewood and carried many of pales of water to boil. I kept myself very busy all the time. I never could understand why they were always so bored. There was always something to do from collecting wood, cleaning camp, boiling water, gathering fruits, and heck I even mended clothes with fish line. I never felt bored out there.

What they did show was that I am a very indecisive personality. I am that. I am a leader when it comes to my own personal decisions, but only me.

When I find myself in situaitons where certain people need to be heard or have something their way, I just step back and let them have their center of attention. I don't allow that to influence my own opinion, but they don't know that, I just let them talk or do what they want, apparently at that moment it means more to them to have that power.

I really don't care for any conflict or drama, so in this game it worked out perfectly for me, not only me but Bob. He played wonderfully. We really did sit back and let the others be the bosses. It's more important for some others to be the center of attention and want to tell everyone what to do.

In my real life I do what I want, and don't allow people to talk me into anything I don't want to do. There are times when I do have a voice and it's usually when it hurts my feelings or my loved ones. I find a voice then. Sometimes I end up saying something I should not, but that doesn't happen all the time.

My edit was fine. I am happy they didn't edit me in a worse way. Not that I did anything mean or rude to others. It would have been nice had you all seen just how hard I worked out there. There were many conversations between Bob and I. Many conversations between many of us. They have the control of what to air for TV. They want it to be interesting so they will air the people who are more dramatic, loud, and want to be the center of attention. I was ok with that. I am not a person who wants to be the center of attention. I only wanted to get to the top and I did. See I taught my son that anything in possible with hard work and follwoing through on tasks. I wanted to show him that. He got it. He seen me try from start to end, which means he seen the whole process of what it means to start (applying for Survivor) and get to the finish no matter what the end result is. I hope that makes sense.

Well anyway I have no worries about the edit. I am pleased that they did post some mini vidoes on CBS so you can see and hear lots of my thoughts from the game as I played it. You can see how I felt about someof the players ect.. That was niceof them. Heck they didn't have to publish any of those extra videos, but glad they did.

Hope that helps in anwsering your question.
