I’m going to try doing Meme Monday for a few more weeks and see how participation goes. But since it has really been dropping off I might stop doing it. Or maybe start doing it every other week or something like that. Any thoughts about that?

Anyhoo, I wasn’t tagged last week so I decided to post this fun little question and answer thing I saw over on Zam’s blog a few weeks ago.

On the outside:

On the inside:
My Fear: Someone in my family being sick, spiders and drowning
My Weaknesses: Food, blogging, food, blogging
My Perfect Pizza: the kind that Rich makes

Yesterday, today, and tomorrow:
My thoughts first waking up: I can’t possibly go to church with my hair looking like this (again, more about that tomorrow)
My bedtime: usually sometime after midnight but before 1am.
My most missed memory: High school years

My pick:
Pepsi or Coke: Yuck to both.

In a guy:
Best eye color: the color of Rich’s eyes- kind of greenish, blueish, hazel
Best hair color: Brown
Short hair or long hair: Clean cut
Best attribute: Sense of humor, kindness

What were you doing: (times reflected when this post was written on Sunday afternoon, not when it posted)
A minute ago: Checking on Hailey while she is napping
An hour ago: Eating a bowl of cereal
A month ago: Oh, probably blogging
A year ago: Oh, probably blogging

Finish the sentences:
I love: my family
I feel: exhausted
I hate: lying
I hide: from problems

I need: to play with Hailey, she is up now.

Then I received this award from Chuck.

The other day she (yes, she) posted a lovely photo that she had taken and we had to guess what it was. My guess was “It’s obviously a shadow” and Chuck was quite impressed with my abilities and bestowed this award on me.

Thanks Chuck!!
