Manic Monday

Do you ever talk to yourself out loud? What do you talk about?

- Yes sometimes. More so when I'm really frustrated and I need to let it out.

What stresses you out?

- Being late. I don't know how but the majority of the time we barely make it to important events on time.

What are your secret talents?

- The hubs considers this a talent, that I can spread all of my toes apart. Lols, other than that I don't know?

Mish-Mash Monday

Do you believe people are basically good?

- Yes I do.

If you could change the custom of shaking hands, what would you replace it with? - I wouldn't change it. I like shaking hands, you can tell a lot about someone with how they shake your hand.

What is something that you enjoy that is a chore for most other people? - Hmmm...this would be a toss between vacuuming and washing dishes (althought hate cleaning the kitchen and putting away clean dishes). Both of them are pretty mindless tasks, where I can just blast some music and think about stuff.

In other news, we got ambitious yesterday with the hubs painting Emma's new room/our old, and decided to invite over the IL's and have them help move all of her furtinure up and ours down. He has three more coats of paint to do on the ceilings before her room is finished completely with just the paint. Then it comes to time of unpacking and getting some nice organization things for her toys and books. Our new room will not be painted for another 2 weeks probably. Will just definitely be happy when I don't have to look at zoo animals. I took some before pictures and will head up there this afternoon to take some afters of the paint. Just keep in mind these are not finished products! :o)

Ok, well I really must wrap this up because I need to get ready to head to the visitation before little C.J.D's funeral @ 11. And to the post office to mail my favorite things swap. Pictures will be following this afternoon during nap.

How many hours of TV do you watch per week? Do you feel that's too much, not enough or just right?

-Hmmm...this is a toughy, the tv is on all the time at our house, but really I only actually sit there and watch my shows and occasionally a movie if it catches my interest. And of course some weekends are spent so busy no tv watching and others are spent being a couch potato watching movie after movie. I'm going to average myself 4 hours a day which comes to a total of 28 hours. Wow, that's a lot...more than a day is wasted watching tv.
Which of the 5 senses do you feel is your strongest sense?

- Touch. Because I always have to touch things. Walking through a store, I'm the person touching items as I walk by them to feel their textures.
What's the wackiest belief you held as a child?

- This is a fun question. That I could make the "monster" in my room disappear. I remember in our first apt sometimes this big blue fuzzy thing would appear in my room, I would have to shut my eyes really hard a few times in a row and then he would be gone.

What is the greatest value that guides your life?

- Super toughy...this is hard to narrow it down to just one, but a main one would be trust. A little too much and always with anyone.

Fill in the blank: If I could be anybody besides myself, I would be ______.

- I'd like to be the more focused, put together self I will be in a few years. Otherwise, I'm happy being me.

What is one item in your house that you should really throw out but probably never will?

- I really don't have this problem. I'm the type of person who gets sick & tired of seeing the stuff so I purge pretty regularly, especially the stuff that needs to go.

How long does it take you to get out of bed in the morning?

- About 5 minutes, I like to lay there and slowly wake up, unless I need to use the bathroom really bad.

Do you usually sleep on one side of the bed or another?

- I sleep on the right side of the bed, but as soon as the hubs gets out of bed in the mornings, I roll in the middle of the bed and spread out!

Something you wish to accomplish before the end of the year:

- I have to really narrow it down to just one? Top of my list is to de-clutter and organize my basement!
