1: Do you like to use post-it notes?
No, I don't like post-it notes, I am a post-it coholic! I have them in every size, shape and color. When I taught they decorated my desk and classroom and kept me organized. I use them for everything! They are always near the top of my Christmas list!
2: Do you take shampoos/conditioner bottles from hotels?
No, although I might have once or twice.
3: Have you ever stolen a street sign before?
No, for sure on that one...some friends did once, but I just could not do it.
4: Do you have freckles?
No, none that I can see.
No, none that I can see.
5: Do you always smile for pictures?
I learned a long time ago....might as well smile, because the picture is going to be taken, and they last a long time. We are a serious picture taking family. We have a closet full of albums..all sorted and tagged!
6: What's your biggest peeve?
Hmmm,,,biggest......I guess maybe one leftover from my teaching days, parents who want to be their children's best friends...in place of parenting! As I get older, I find myself with a much stronger live and let live attitude.
7: What's your favorite food?
Ice Cream, chocolate and lobster...I know that is more than one, the first two are essential, the third a wonderful splurge.

8: What movies could you watch over and over and still love?
I am not a big movie person, so probably...home movies, yes we have lots of those, too.
9: When was the last time you wrote a letter to someone on paper?
I actually mail my grandchildren snail mail once a week on a rotating basis. Sometimes a card, or a note...or even a post-it with a message. I want them to know the fun of getting to open an envelope and reading a message meant just for them.
10: Favorite kind of sandwich?
An italian..the kind found in Maine...a long, soft roll, with salami or ham, tomato, onion, peppers, cheese, oil and vinegar.
11: Best thing to eat for breakfast?
Belgium waffles with strawberries, and a couple slices of bacon.
12. Do you sing in the shower?
As a favor to anyone who might hear, I try not to sing any place.
13. What is your usual bedtime?
Somewhere between 10 and when I get there.
14. Would you pose nude for a magazine or other publication?
No.
I realize there are two colors happening here....not sure why or how.
hope you are all having a good weekend

Sorry about the snow, I remember I hated February and that was why - I always felt it should be over. It's the one thing I hated most about living in Denver. The worst snows always came in March and April.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're having a good time with your family.
Your grandchildren must love receiving little notes in the mail...I know I still get excited about receiving mail (other than junk mail and bills)though it does not happen often and I still like to send notes to people though don't do it as often as I once did... :-) Take care, Terps
ReplyDeleteLove the Meme!
ReplyDeleteI love snow! We hardly get any, and I miss it!
It is so thoughtful that you send notes to the grands!
The food sounds delicious.
I had just been thinking that we've been lucky with little snow and lo and behold we just got a couple inches dumped on us.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why, but I still get a little thrill when I get a card or letter in the mail.
Snowed for about 3 hours here - beautiful - and now it's all gone. Oh well. We still have parents trying to be the buddy and not the parent and as a results the kids are really bullying their parents. Hard to sit and listen to them all.

We did not get much snow here this year and its a bummer. One big one would have been nice but it does not look like that's going to happen.
ReplyDeleteMaybe next year.
Hi Abby, thanks for sharing these facts. I always enjoy learning a little about my blog friends. I think it's so sweet and lovely that you write to your grandchildren and the brekkie sounds devine!

Hi Abby,
ReplyDeleteParents being to nice to their children cause a lot of the problems in this world. And those poor children, that have never had a good example, will have to reinvent parenting all from scratch.
I have seen enough snow for the year. I have taken enough snow-pictures and now I would like to sit in the garden and enjoy the sun. Unfortunately, my hand written, snail mailed letter did not reach the office of the weather gods.
Hugs,
Bas
Very fun - we have more in common than i knew. Guess i'll have to do the meme too - saw it on fiona's too, so i'm thinking all the cool kids are doing it. :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat taste in breakfast foods. Yum. I love that you write to your grand kids. They are lucky!!
ReplyDeleteHave you ever had lobster ice cream?
Hugs,
Fiona
Sunny, I have always thought that it is a good thing Feb only has 28 days...I could not stand any more...Leap year is a trial of that!

SirQsmlb...I am a lobster purist...love it plain, a little butter, but I would love a taste of lobster ice cream..does it exist?
hugs abby
Yes... Had it in Maine, NH, & MA. I'm with you on the best way to eat it, though. I love the flavor of it all by itself!!
DeleteI, too, LOVE that you write your grandchildren. What a treasure and blessing. I hope your weather clears up. We've had a really mild winter this year and it is strange. Not much snow at all. Fun post and facts.
