I'm on the run today. I have a number of appointments away from home, so I don't know if I can wait for the questions. Therefore, here are my answers. If you wish to make questions of them, feel free.

The first time was a flight from Teterboro to Batesville, Ohio on a business trip to see the Hill-Rom bed company. They flew us out there on a Lear Jet. Very cool.

The Beatles, The Who, anything Motown, The Doobie Brothers, Queen, many others

Chocolate Fudge - Of course, YAY.

It's been 35 years since Hank Aaron broke Babe Ruth's home run record and he did it without steroids! I still say that is the legitimate lifetime home run record and I don't know if anyone will ever break it without pharmaceutical assistance.


OK. Those are my answers. Got some questions for them?

Hi all! Woke up to about a quarter inch of snow this morning...kids were so excited, they both wanted to make a snowman at the bus stop! Hard to explain there's just not enough to do it!

What was the last thing you "nuked" in your microwave ? Yesterday for dinner, warmed up some mac n cheese for DS.

Have you ever walked out of a movie ? Yes, only one I can think of.

oh and How come ? The Color of Money--it was in high school and a bunch of us went to see it at the dollar movies...we were all so bored, about halfway through we all got up and left. It wasn't even worth a dollar, lol!

How many of you still would love to sit down with a box of crayons and a coloring book ? I do all the time with my kids! We have way too many crayons, and I hate to admit that 3 super huge boxes are actually ones DH and I both saved from childhood. How weird is that?

I always stayed inside the lines, I would even outline each color section in a darker color than what I colored the picture with...but I don't do that now, lol

I especially like the walking out of a movie for chocolate fudge! If there is ever a reason to leave a movie, thats high on the list!

What was the last thing you "nuked" in your microwave ? I haven't used the microwave since last summer for veggies. Being off grid makes you very conservative with electric. My husband did reheat his coffee a few weeks ago when the sun was out.


Have you ever walked out of a movie ? No. If I paid for it I stay no matter how miserable it is. Now I know better than to go to the movies. There is no creativity anymore. If I want to see it I can wait for the DVD to rent.

oh and How come ? I have fallen asleep because they were so boring.


How many of you still would love to sit down with a box of crayons and a coloring book ? Shh. You looked in my office cabinet. I still like to color with the grandkids. I also just bought some Mad Libs(remember those?) but I think I'm more excited about them than the kids, lol.

I'm neat and precise. I draw a darker border line and then very neatly color the rest of the picture. Ha, I'm the same way in life. Neat and organized.

International Feng Shui Awareness Day Another fad, at least in America, that brainwashed people to spend more money, lol.

Zoo Lovers Day I haven't been to one in years.

Draw a Picture of a Bird Day- I can only draw stick figures.
