So let's go "forward" a little and see what colors we will see in a few weeks. It has been so warm here that, except for a few leaves falling, everything is still as green as "summertime"
And "NOW"
DRUM ROLL PLEASE,
"ALL ABOUT ME, FROM A to Z
(Read fast, so you won't get too bored, or fall asleep! LOL)
AGE: So why couldn't you have asked me that before September!!! Let's just say I slid out of the seventys, kicking and screaming all the way and am loving every minute of it!
BED: My dream Queen Size Black Pencil Post
CHORE I HATE: Cleaning Toilets...doesn't everyone!
DOG: Oh don't I wish. I love dogs! Used to raise Mini Dachshunds. Fun! Fun! Fun!
ESSENTIAL START TO MY DAY: Orange Juice
FAVORITE COLOR: I would have to say "RED" with "BLUE" a close 2nd
GOLD OR SILVER: Silver! With this hair??? LOL:.
HEIGHT: 5 ft., 6 inches
INSTRUMENTS I PLAY: None for me but Mr. S.O. plays guitar and we sing together. Does that count?
JOB TITLE: Interior Re-designer, Color Consultant, Retired Admin., Mom, Grandma, friend. Wow, no wonder I am so tired! LOL
KIDS: Two beautiful daughters
LIVE IN: Northern California, but hail from Illinois and Minnesota
MAKE OF CAR: A beautiful Honda CRV
ARE YOU STILL WITH ME HERE
HANG ON, WE'RE HALF WAY THERE!
NICKNAMES: Joyful and Joyous
OVERNIGHT HOSPITAL STAY: Two kids, Breast Cancer and One broken knee repaired.
PET PEEVE: Bad Drivers on Cell Phones. It's illegal here to drive and use a cell phone!!!
QUOTE FROM A MOVIE: "I'll have what she's having!" from "When Harry Met Sally" Loved It!
RIGHT OR LEFT HANDED: Left, but play golf and knit right handed
SIBLINGS: One dear brother who passed away too young from Cancer. :-(
T.V.SHOWS: Favorite right now is "Sarah's House" on HGTV on Saturdays. She is so smart, entertaining and a good decorator. They explain the "why" of making the choices they do. Love it and try not to miss it.
UNDERWEAR: "What you get when you stop believing in Santa." (Fooled ya, didn't I!) LOL
VEGETABLES I HATE: That's a "no-brainer" for me: Cooked Spinach..
WHAT MAKES ME LATE: I don't allow enough time to get ready! Used to do a "5-minute-face" but if you refer to "A" above, you will see why. More stuff to hide all those silly things that appear overnight! LOL
X-RAYS: Yes, from Brain, "Nope, there's nothing there" to Knee, ":Yep, it's broken alright."
YUMMY FOOD I MAKE: Everything I make is yummy, or at least Mr. S..O. better say so! LOL But I do make a great Coconut cake...with the kind help of Betty Crocker, of course! LOL Hey, she's the PRO!
ZOO: Well, my house has been known to be a zoo when the girls were still home, but for animals at the ZOO, I really like to watch the Giraffes; they are fascinating to me. And no "double chins" on those long necks! LOL
So I need to thank all the bloggers who have done this on their blogs;
some have even given prizes for it which
is really cool.
the names of some that I have seen are:
Renee, Tammy, Betty, Misi and
(oh, well, refer again to "A" and see why I forgot the others)
See, it's great to get "more mature" HA! because everyone expects me to be a little nutty!
And I Am! So There!
But I am sure having fun...
I will leave you with that until next time.
A huge project going on right now but can't show it yet???

ReplyDeleteHi Joy,
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for visiting my blog...as usual you are the loyal one! You must think I don't care...but I do - I just am lousy with getting to the blogs. When I get a comment from someone it spurs me on to get on the blogs and leave comments.
Now....I loved getting to know you better - although I did know a few things about you....lol
Off to read your other posts!
Hugs,
Karen

ReplyDeleteWe are a lot alike except I like cooked spinach but I promise never to serve it for dinner if you drop by to eat.
Have a great week and keep having fun.
