A makeover for 1 room in your house Yup! or A makeover for you (new hairdo,new wardrobe etc.) Nope
OK fees up anyone try to yodel after reading yesterdays ? Nope
Who here knows how to use jumper cables to jump start a battery ? Jumped many a cars in my life - usually one of the clunkers I owned.
Do you carry jumper cables in your vehicle ? You mean there are people who don't?!? When was the last time you attempted this? Attempted what - not carrying jumper cables in the car? I woulodn't think of it.
Have you ever been to a Drive In Movie ? Yes, used to love those! Wish there were more around these days. They were the best of both worlds... You swere safe from perverts in your own locked car, could adjust the volume of the movie to your own liking, could take your dog (used to do that all the time) and your own snacks and cooler. Those were the good old days! Ever played Bingo ? Yes, used to be a regular many moons ago Did you win ? Once or twice Can you YoYo ? Used to.
Karla happy bday to your FIL! I got busy with chores forgot to come to the QOD today earlier. Having kids home my schedule tends to sway a bit from the norm but I love having them home for the summer. Tell DH he did a very nice job on the table!
Happy vacation nitram we'll be here when you return.

or
A makeover for you (new hairdo,new wardrobe etc.)
Oh, I'm hopelessly un-makeover-able, so I'd choose one of the rooms in the house. The tough thing would be picking just ONE room, because they all need help. If the makeover were just decorating help, I'd probably pick the living room, but if home makeovers include any kind of remodeling work, it would have to be the bathroom.
Bonus Question:
OK fess up anyone try to yodel after reading yesterdays ?
Not I. Caterwauling is not an attractive activity for people my age.
Extra Credit Question:
Who here knows how to use jumper cables to jump start a battery ?
I've never actually done it myself, but I do know how.
Do you carry jumper cables in your vehicle ?
Yes, jumper cables, ice scrapers and a foldable shovel are basic automotive necessities in the Midwest, and they are always in the trunk of my car.
When was the last time you attempted this?
As mentioned above, I've never done it myself, but I loaned the jumpers to a co-worker whose battery died in one of the cold snaps we had last January.
Just for Fun:
Have you ever been to a Drive In Movie ?
Yes, many years ago.
Ever played Bingo ?
No.
Can you YoYo ?
Sort of - not well, but I can usually get it to cooperate a time or two.

Anyone who's willing to do a makeover on a grumpy old bear is good enough for me, so I'm gonna cheat and ask Latte'Chic to do the makeover on me. The makeover fairy will be invited to work on the house. I'd be satisfied with a simple kitchen do-over, but since the makeover fairy is involved, I'm going to expand the plans to include the larger space which includes the living room and dining area. I'll be extremely happy if the fairy would just wave her little wand and make the wrong things right! I'm going to cheat even further by expanding this area with a couple of sets french doors that lead to a wrap-around deck with sun room. If the makeover fairy does a good job, I'll invite her back next year to work on the other half of the downstairs.
OK fees up anyone try to yodel after reading yesterdays ?
The one time I tried to yodel, I sounded like a warthog that had swallowed its tongue!
Who here knows how to use jumper cables to jump start a battery ?
I've been shown several times, but I've never been put to the test. I doubt I'd remember. Do you carry jumper cables in your vehicle ? Yes! When was the last time you attempted this? How did you know our truck isn't working right?
Have you ever been to a Drive In Movie ? Ever played Bingo ? Not for money Did you win ? Sometimes Can you YoYo ? About as well as I can ping-pong and po-go! IOW, not very well!

Yeah I can yo-yo.....nothing fancy like walking the dog or anything but I'm alright.
