A Great Day For A Meme...

I saw this at Barb's, who saw it at Brenda’s, who saw it at Diane’s, who made it up. WOW! How often do you actually get to know where the meme originated??? Anyway - all you've heard about forever now is the kids... so let's just toss this out there! Besides... it's (supposedly) a rainy day... and a meme is always good for a rainy day!

1. How come I can never find: my style of underwear in MY size!?

2. I wish I’d never started: letting myself re-gain my weight. (WHAT was I thinking???)

3. I wonder why:

4. Mama always told me: It's just as easy to marry a rich man as a poor one -- but she was wrong. Of course, she also always told me to love Jesus and trust Him with my life ... and she was right...

5. There’s this one thing in my closet that I just can’t seem to get rid of: Ohhhhh no ya don't! I DID get rid of it! That ratty t-shirt is GONE! *nods* Six more ratty ones have taken it's place... but THAT one is gone!

6. My favorite guilty pleasure is: pedicures! So frivolous. So ... well, I can't say unnecessary... on MY feet they really ARE necessary -- but I could do them at home more often.

7. I always forget to: tell Dennis when the car needs something done...

8. I have never: been out of the country, water skied, cheated on my husband... (there are a b'zillion things I've never done! This is silly!)

9. I’m obsessed with: God. (thank You God!)

10. One of my favorite memories is: Well, of course, the birth of each of my children... and they day they told me Luz was coming... but how about THE DAY I got a truly spontaneous HUG from Derek! There's only been ONE since he was about 5 years old... so it's a treasure for sure.

Feel free to play along, and if you do, let me know, and you might let Diane know, too.

Did you forget #3?

There are a lot of things in my closets I can't seem to get rid of, and when I do two weeks later I always seem to need it!

That ratty t-shirt probably just migrated to my closet!

What's your address and if you hear any bumps and thumps on the porch near the pepper plants it's probably just your imagination. Yum.

I so need to clean out my closet again. Bah!

Today I am cleaning my desk, that's why there is no new post :)
Next on the list should be my closet ::sigh::
Your peppers will make it just on time for the upcoming Ruby Tuesday!!

Wow ! for once your green thumb works apparently, lol !
I couldn't meet Dario in London he was busy with an art director and a photographer. But that didn't matter I had a great time it was sunny and I felt home again after 7 years ! I took lots of photos. It hasn't changed but I had some troubles to find my way because I had forgotten ! Now I am here with a heavy heart !

Wondering if you overlooked #3 or if you just in general wonder why about everything. :-D

Yeah, there are tons of things we could have answered to #8. I did try water skiing -- once. I was amazed at how much strength it requires in one's legs -- strength mine don't have!!

I don't have much in my closet that I should get rid of, but my attic -- well, let's not go there. Literally. :-D

On a rainy day it was fun to read your Meme.
It rained yesterday today and maybe more tomorrow!!

#8 is a good one, there are so many things I have never done!!! Hugs Grams

Pffft...go commando...that'll take care of #1 for ya. I wonder why #3 has no answer. LOL. Great looking peppers my friend :)

Great answers. For number ten I would have to include your visit.
Your garden does so much better than hours. When the gran kids were here Betty didn't water the hanging tomatoes every day and now they have that brown stuff on the bottom again.

You have had a better crop than we have this summer! It has been such a weird year.

Great job on the meme, and thanks for participating! I'll head right back to put the link to your meme on my original post.

Happy weekend!

Hugs,

Diane
