Today's Question(s):

What do you have planned for today ?


Going to the first outdoor Dane County Farmers' Market of 2009!! This day has been on my calendar for a long, long time, and I have been impatiently awaiting this morning for weeks. The vendors are already out there on the Capitol Square under their awnings, while the heaps of winter spinach, hothouse tomatoes and early asparagus make splashes of color in the bright sun. There'll be lots of bedding plants, too, and free-range meats, supremely wonderful cheese and the new season's harvest of good Wisconsin maple syrup on offer as well.

Bonus Question:

What was the last "as seen on TV" item you bought or are considering buying ?


Since I don't watch television, I don't ever have any idea whether an item is "as seen on TV" or not.

Extra credit Question:

If you stand at your bedroom door looking into the room do you see the bed or the dresser ?
(there is a reason I am asking)


Well, if I look straight ahead, I see the bed. If I glance slightly to the right, I see my dresser. If I glance a bit farther to the right, I see my spouse's dresser. We live in a very small house, and it's possible to see the entire contents of any room from the doorway. The way the bedroom furniture is arranged is the ONLY way we can fit everything in, and the open floorspace in the room is basically a narrow pathway around the bed.

Just for Fun:
Crossword puzzles: Yay or Nay


No, my brain doesn't work that way. I find them enormously frustrating. I love words, but what I love about them is putting them together when I write, not fitting them into boxes.

Ever been to a laundromat ?

Many times. We didn't have a washing machine until shortly before our first child was born, which meant that we made a weekly trip to the laundromat for a number of years. And there have been times when our washer and/or dryer was broken that we have done so since then.

Can you or someone you know "Juggle" ?

Not in the usual sense, although I'm pretty good at juggling numbers.

What time did you get up this morning ?

A few minutes before 7:00.

Finishing the plastering of a few spots in the bathroom, then painting so that the plumber can install new sink, vanity and toilet on Monday - and also start painting the ceiling in the family room.

Good morning Karla. As I passed through Jacksonville on Tuesday and yesterday I thought about you.


What do you have planned for today ?

As little as possible. We have had a whirlwind 4 days looking for real estate in FL. Drove 12 hours to FL on Tuesday and drove back home yesterday. I need a break, lol.


What was the last "as seen on TV" item you bought or are considering buying ? I haven't bought anything off of TV but I did think about those green vegetable bags.

If you stand at your bedroom door looking into the room do you see the bed or the dresser ?

The bed. We have no dressers.


Crossword puzzles: Yay or Nay A small yay.
Have you ever been to a laundromat ? Yes.
Can you or someone you know "Juggle" ? No, I'm way too uncoordinated, lol.
What time did you get up this morning ? 8:30am. My stepdaughter calls us the same time every Saturday.

[b]Today's Question(s):

What do you have planned for today ? DS has his first soccer game of the season, but says he's not going...so I guess we'll have to see. He loved playing in the fall but looks like things have changed, even though he said he wanted to play again. At least it's going to be 74 out today!

Bonus Question:

What was the last "as seen on TV" item you bought or are considering buying ? That sliders pan...DH really wanted one and I was at Target one day and saw it so I got it for him. He's only used it once and it was not so user friendly. He did love the sliders though.

Extra credit Question:

If you stand at your bedroom door looking into the room do you see the bed or the dresser ?
I would be looking straight at my nightstand, with the bed a bit to the left. My dresser is on the same wall as the door, so I can see it too but only from the side.

Crossword puzzles: Yay a little...I am not so good at them, but enjoy doing small ones with my kids and seeing their excitement.
Have you ever been to a laundromat ? Yes.
Can you or someone you know "Juggle" ? Nope
What time did you get up this morning ? around 8am...construction down the street woke me up before the kids did! I even got my shower in before the first one woke up!
