1. Finish this sentence – The last book I read and enjoyed was….
So many to choose from that I can’t really say. I can say for sure the one I just finished yesterday wasn’t all that great which was by Bernard Cornwell called Last Kingdom.

2. Do you have special Victoria Day (Canadian) or Memorial Day (US) traditions? If you don’t live in Canada or the US, what is the next holiday that you are celebrating where you are?
No traditions here. I take the day off because it is a state holiday but do nothing. I do not like celebrating holidays really.

3. If you could invent something to make your life simpler, what would it be?
Hmm, not really sure. Maybe a simpler way to grow vegetables to where I won’t kill them? I’ve quite enjoyed having my lettuce bowl on the back porch.

4. What is your favorite recent blog post?
I can’t really say that I have a favorite recent other than the Awww…Mondays I view every Monday :)

And your question is:

Are you ready for Hurricane Season if you live in the path of any hurricanes? Apparently it is starting early again this year.

I didn’t really do anything special this weekend. Mowed the lawns, went to the gym, did some laundry, watched some TV.

I actually don’t have anybody dropping by expectantly because I actually don’t tell that many people were I live.

Five Question Friday #4

Friday, May 11th, 2012 | General with No Comments »

1. What advice would you give a couple getting married?
Don’t do it? Honestly, I do not see the need if you truly love someone. A piece of paper does make a marriage and therefore does not need one IMO.

2. If you could tell your 16 year old self ONE thing, what would it be?
Exercise and watch what you eat because it will come back to haunt you when you hit your 30-40s.

3. What do you do to keep cool in the summer? (AC, windows, fans, swimming, etc.)
AC at the house. I cannot sleep when I’m hot.

4. What did you (or your wife) crave most while pregnant?
N/A since I have never been pregnant nor aim to be.

5. Who is your favorite TV mom? Why?
I don’t really have one. I know one I wouldn’t want which is from Married with Children.

===============

On a side note, I thought I already started to kill off the lettuce bowl but found out it just needed water. I moved it out of direct sunlight now to see how that goes. *woopsies*

Oddly enough the kidney camp I take the kids to every year.

I found this meme on another blog and tracked it back to the originator. There are some interesting questions and a great way to know me a little more. You can check it out at Meet Me on Monday Meme back from hiatus. Here goes…

1. I wish _________
a lot of things but I know they won’t happen unless I can do something about it.

2. If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be?
Hmm, maybe the first flight of a plane.

Yes but I don’t often because I don’t really like eating leftovers and it is just me in the house.

4. What do you like to do to get exercise?
I wouldn’t go so far as say like but I do it anyways. Lift weights, spinning, running, walking (sometimes with the dog), elliptical and most currently specific exercises to strengthen by hip and lower quadrant for my back.

Umm, to some extend obsessive compulsive about tidiness in a certain way too.

Five Question Friday #3

1. What did you wear to prom? Include a picture if possible.
My Junior Prom I wore one of the Southern Belle dresses in peach if I remember correctly. I was not allowed to go to my Senior Prom because I did not have a date.

2. Would you rather be on the biggest loser or a food eating challenge?
Eh, biggest loser because there is no way I’d win any sort of food eating challenge due to the fact that I would refuse to eat a lot of stuff they might want me too and be off within minutes of the show starting lol

3. Done fave sonic drink? Refreshing summer drink? (Hey, Kristina…was that a typo, or some “done good” Southern thing?)
A drink from Sonic? Never been there. Favorite summer drink? Sugar Free Kool-Aid Grape.

Chevrolet something or other and I don’t name my cars.

5. What’s one thing your child or spouse does that sends you over the edge?
I do not have either but the dogs irk me when they keep wanting to go outside every 5 minutes and then back in in 5 minutes.
