1. What was I doing 10 years ago:
I had a nine year old and a 6 year old. My six year old was just learning how to play hockey, if I knew then what I know now… Stay at home mum, doing the kid things, still gardening and playing house
2. My five favorite snacks:
Tim-Tams, herbed goat cheese on water biscuits, any nut I can find, anything covered in chocolate, and here’s a kicker, Skinny Sticks
3. Five things on my to do list today:
Ironing, trying to find the floor in the laundry room, putting clothes away, figuring out a nutritious dinner people will eat AND enjoy, weed the garden
4. Things I would do if I were a billionaire:
Charity, Family, Animals, buy large property
5. Five jobs that I've had:
Sample girl at grocery store, cashier, office manager, supply teacher, and still striving for that perfect housewife thing
6. Five bad habits of mine:
Obsessive bed making and adjusting (ask my husband about this one when he is helping me change the bedding)
untimely sarcasm
5 o’clock pm snacker (I become gluttonous just before the dinner hour after not eating all day and consume an odd mixture yogurt, Tim-Tams, and sometimes, pickles or olives while I am preparing another meal to eat)
I am sometimes just a bit too honest
I tend to whistle while I talk to people on the phone
7. Five places I've lived:
Well, the truth of the matter is, I am like a Dixie Chick song, I married my high school sweetheart and moved to a home eight doors away from my parents basically the same postal code
8. Five random things people wouldn't know about me:
I pray every night
I fall asleep thinking of THE most random things like whether the dog food I have for Dibbs is fattening, did I leave that load in the washer and should I let my daughter go to university in the US, what if she meets a guy down there and wants to stay…
I think my nose is the only redeeming quality of my whole face and actually thought of a nose ring/stud at one time
I have an irrational fear of driving over water and on bridges
I get inexplicable cravings for peanut butter and at night, right before bed, I will take a tablespoon, scoop and eat right from the jar but would yell at my kids if I caught them doing such a dastardly act
9. Five cd's I would have on a desert island:
U2 “The Joshua Tree”
The Three Tenors
Oasis not sure which one probably “What’s the Story, Morning Glory”
The Best of Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong
Andrea Bocelli “Romanza”
10. People I want to get to know better:
I will leave this up to anyone that wants to play

Now aren't you sorry you clicked me today?
Silly girl, of course not, I'm glad I clicked on you today. :)
ReplyDeleteWow I learned so many interesting facts about you this morning. I really like your snack choices by the way, I love Tim-Tams with coffee.
I cracked up about the obsesive bed making and adjusting, I do the exact same thing, I thought I was the only weirdo...it just drives me nuts if the bed isn't made straight or something... go figure.
Thanks for sharing Lisa, enjoy your day!
This was a more complete version of the one I did today. I liked the bad habits section...a little OCD, eh? LOL! So am I!!
ReplyDeleteI love these games, it is always so much fun to learn things you would probably never know otherwise!!

Ok, I have to ask, what is a Tim Tam? I'm so pleased to know that I'm not the only person with the driving over bridges/water thing. I will add 30 miles to a journey to avoid a bridge!
ReplyDeleteLisa,
ReplyDeleteI too want to know what a Tim-Tam is, as well as what Skinny Sticks are????

P.S. Have called about 10 bookstores and to no avail on the CH&C mag. But I can subscribe on amazon.com and think I will ask for it for my birthday. Family is always asking for a list.
And yes, completely recovered! (Thanks for asking.)
