Good morning all. I just finished writing an update on my story and it took me forever, lol.
What is your favorite animal that lives at the Zoo ? I love all animals but I find monkeys very entertaining because they are so close to humans.
If you pick up a pen and it doesn't write do you I throw it out.
How many "non working" pens do you think you have floating around your house or office ? None.
Is your stove Gas or Electric ? Gas.
Which would you rather have ? Either one.
What is your favorite color ? I don't really have a favorite but I am drawn to colors like purple, orange, and yellow.
Are any rooms in your home painted this color ? Oh never. My house colors and fixtures are always neutral. I never know if my DH says we're moving, lol. Gotta be prepared.
Which room in your home do you spend the most time ? The bedroom. But while I am awake I would have to say the office where my computer is.
Have you ever had Fish as pets ? Yes when I was in college I had 2 goldfish names Freddie and Charlie. I tried to sneak my dog into the dorm but I got in trouble. The fish had an eventful ride back to my mother's house 6 hours away for the summer.
What kind of sheets are on your bed ? Cotton, but I love flannel in the winter.
Last time you took your car to an "Automotive Service Professional" ? About 2 months ago. Our Jeep had no Park. It turned out to be a recall. Gotta love American made.
1978 - "Grease" starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John opens That was a great movie. Of course I was only 12 at the time, lol.
Word of the Day: redivivus \red-uh-VY-vuhs; -VEE-\ , adjective:
Living again; brought back to life; revived; restored.
Ah that's how I feel today after my Hubby scared 20 years off my life yesterday. He tried to drive our 40 foot motorhome down our mountain driveway and it stalled on him at the worst curve at the top. He lost all power steering and couldn't keep it completely on the road. The whole thing started to tip and I was so sacred I lost him and he would roll down our mountain. Thank god he stays calm during emergencies. When it comes to my DH getting hurt I become a basket case. All is well and he is safe today. So I am redivivus today.
Yay, Big hugs to everyone and I hope you all have a great day.
