Stolen From Thom....

1. What are your current obsessions? God, family, friends, photography, travel.... and I wrap it all up in a blog!

2. Which item from your wardrobe do you wear most often? ONE item? ... which one... my gray sweat shorts!

3. What’s for dinner? It's 4:00 a.m. - who cares about dinner?

4. Last thing you bought? A Hannah Montana Pen

5. What are you listening to? The dog drink water.

6. If you were a god/goddess who would you be? Hmmmm... Good thing I have no aspirations to BE a goddess... but I guess if I WERE one I'd like to be the goddess of prayer!

7. Favorite holiday spots? I'm assuming this means "vacation" as opposed to holiday which would always be "with family"... wherever family happens to be! Normally the beach (any beach) is my favorite spot ... but right now I'd really like to be back in Neenah playing Canasta!

8. Reading right now? 3:16 by Max Lucado, and The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis

9. 4 words to describe yourself. Happy, grateful, FAT, grandma

10. Guilty pleasure? I have a LOT of pleasures, but none of them make me feel guilty. Not even eating which SHOULD make me feel very guilty... I don't know why it doesn't...

11. Who or what makes you laugh until you’re weak? Oh sometimes a friend who seems fascinated by her neighbors roof! But it might not have been that at all! Most often, it's my kids. Who knOws what makes you laugh like that... it's just one of those giddy things that happens! No one or nothing can do it all the time! It just HAPPENS. Something clicks ... and there ya go!

12. Planning to travel to next? I just got BACK! I haven't planned my next travel! PROBABLY just a short hop... maybe 3 hours from home or so.... nothing major for awhile!

13. Best thing you ate or drank lately? Wisconsin Cheese! Baby swiss to be exact.

14. When did you last get tipsy? I don't remember how long ago it was. I remember it - but not how long ago. Probably gettin' close to a year.

15. Care to share some wisdom? Moi??? LOL! Nooooo... I have no wisdom.

16. Nicest thing anyone’s ever said to you? Probably "I love you." I can't think of anything nicer than that!


I'm on my way to the airport this morning. KRYSTI is catching a flight to Europe for two weeks! Somehow I've taught my children how to do what I've always wanted to do! Ahhhh well - you know what they say! Those that can, do -- Those that can't, teach! I live vicariously through her... and a little elephant! *sigh*

Mother's Day was phenomenal! It was exactly what I said it would be - and that is PERFECT for me! As a matter of fact, it was SO good that we've decided to have re-do for Father's Day!

Okay... Krysti's ready now -- so off we gooooooooooooo! Yes it really is 4:00 a.m.

You share your wisdom with us everyday when you tell us what's most important in life.

I don't have any aspirations to travel internationally -- I'll enjoy it vicariously through others! Hope Krysti has a wonderful time!

I was going to ask what you were doing up at 4 a.m. --but evidently you were getting ready to take Krysti to the airport!

Great meme.

Mellli, your home is like a train station. There is always someone coming or going :) Hope she has a really fun trip.

Your mother's day festivities looked like such fun. Mine was broken up...went to lunch with my youngest on Sat. and she came over on Sunday morning to make us brunch. Then we were off to my mil for her Mother's Day. Then we left to meet our son and grandson, and dil for dinner at Outback. It was all fun. Our oldest daughter who lives in Houston/Galveston area sent beautiful roses.

And I am listening to the vacuum cleaner. Today is cleaning day and Janka is busy ! so you too had a perfect mother's day. They took me to a nice restaurant and the next day we went to my "midi" market (they had never seen it) Marieken was really knocked out when she saw all this.
