Holy cow! First, I thought today was Thursday, then when I got here my account was signed out and luckily my password wasn't changed...now I have to do some quick thinking and get it done!

~ What types of computers do you still have? I have my Dell 17" laptop that I'm using now, and I also have my old Dell tower PC.

~ Would you ever like to own a 'land line' telephone again? I have one now. I don't like using my cell phone much.

~ How far is a long drive when driving someplace, according to you? It depends on the purpose of the drive, but I'd say anything more than 3 hours would be a long drive for me.

~ Are you enjoying your winter so far? I've enjoyed the holidays, but not the weather. Our weather has been quite screwy this year, with temps way above normal most of the time. We've had hardly any snow and I miss the white stuff!

~ Do you ever have breakfast for dinner? Yeppers. Do you like doing that? I do. Sure. I enjoy having traditional breakfast foods any time of day.

~ Only choose 4 hand tools: Ball peen hammer; flat screwdriver; Phillips screwdriver; level.

~ Have you any 'slip on' shoes/footwear? Yes. I have a couple of pairs of Crocs that I wear when doing yard work and I have a pair of slip-on slippers. Oh, and I also have a pair of flip-flops which I only use if I'm at a beach or a pool, which is rarely.

~ Any frozen food brands that you might buy: Healthy Choice meals. I don't often eat a frozen entree but usually have one in my freezer just in case I need a fast meal and have no time to cook. Healthy Choice meals aren't delicious, but they'll do in a pinch, and I get a good coupon for one about once a month from my local Meijer store.


***I better get this posted!*** I'm glad you did, roosty! Happy Fryday everyone!

~ What types of computers do you still have?
A PC, a tablet and a MacBook Pro.
~ Would you ever like to own a 'land line' telephone again?
I've always had one. It is good to have when there's an emergency because 911 operators can locate you immediately. With a cell phone, all they know about your location is the nearest cell tower.
~ How far is a long drive when driving someplace, according to you?
Any more than an hour.
~ Are you enjoying your winter so far?
The rain has caused a lot of damage here, but we're in a drought and needed it.
~ Do you ever have breakfast for dinner? Do you like doing that?
I do.
I do, too.
~ Only choose 4 hand tools:
Hammer
Pliers
Screwdriver
Wrench
~ Have you any 'slip on' shoes/footwear?
Yes. A pair of Jungle Mocs, two pairs of flats and a pair of slippers.
~ Any frozen food brands that you might buy:
Amy's
Blake's
California Pizza Kitchen

Thanks, Roosty!

I went half the day thinking it was Thursday!

Laptop, but no computer service.

I have a landline. My cell phone doesn't always get a signal at my house.

I consider an eight hour drive long, although I once did a 13 hour stretch.

Winter is fine.

Only four tools? Hand, not power. Not kitchen tools. Eeek! This is hard. Hammer. Screwdriver (how can one get by without an assortment?!) Shovel, rake. But I need the brush kit for cleaning the chimney.

I have some slip on shoes.

Frozen food - Kirkland scallops and shrimp, and Trader Joe's chocolate ice cream.
