50 is Nifty-Wednesday Hodgepodge Vol guess what number




1. What gives you goosebumps?  Many things-- but the top honor goes to a kiss from my hubby!



2. Halloween-are you a lover or a hater? Okay, that sounds harsh...Halloween-yay or nay?  It's never been my favorite holiday, even as a kid.  I love to see little children dressed up and I love candy--especially chocolate--and free is always best!  However, I don't like big kids who haven't even tried to put on a costume begging at my door.  I'm also not big on decorating for Halloween.



3. Can you respect someone you do not trust, and can you trust someone you do not respect?  No.


4. Apples or oranges? Yes, you have to choose.  Apples, hands down.  There's not much you can do to an apple that I don't like.  Except make it into cider.  Or butter.  That's just wrong on all counts.


5. What is something you wish was in your town? (shop, restaurant, attraction, etc)   While Ross or Marshall's would be at the top of my list, a water park would be awesome for the kids.


6. What non-food item is in your refrigerator or freezer?  All I can think of is a cold pack for owies.


7. Are you at all superstitious?  At first, I was going to say just a little, but the more I thought about it, I guess the answer is yes.
 

8. Insert your own random thought here.   I have been a good little girl so far this holiday season.  Not only have I cut down on the Dew (I confess, I have been drinking them again--but only occasionally), I have only had one very small bag of those yummy pumpkins!  Now if I can keep this up through Thanksgiving and Christmas...

Meet Me On Monday!!

Welcome to the 54th edition of 
"Meet Me On Monday!"
 






1.  My favorite kind of animal is stuffed!  No muss, no fuss, no feeding, no cleaning.

 
2.  Do you like your handwriting?  Very much


3.  What is the last movie you saw?  At the movies?  Bad Teacher--at the insistence of some friends.  One word--DON'T!  I don't understand Cameron Diaz at all.  She is beautiful and classy looking, yet she chooses the worst movies to be in.  What a waste of talent!  And her foul mouth should be washed out with bleach!  Forget the soap!


4.  Do you buy things on eBay?  Not so much now that I've discovered craigslist












5.  What did you have for lunch yesterday?  Some delicious vegetable soup made by my hubby!  Perfect for a chilly fall day.

Meet Me on Monday





Welcome to the 53rd edition of 
"Meet Me On Monday!"
 
Blogging  is a funny thing...we tell our most intimate thoughts for all to read  and yet most of the time I find myself sitting and wondering, "who is  this person!?"  I know them...but yet I don't know them!  I want  to know who the person is behind all those words so I thought of a great  way for all of us to "meet" each other!

Every Sunday Never Growing Old will post five get to know you  questions that you can copy and paste into your own Monday post and we  can all learn a little more about each and every one of us!!

Java will add a linky so we can follow who participates and get to know them  better!!  Be sure to link the POST and not just your whole blog!!


Questions:

1.  The thing that scares me the most is the possibility of losing my husband, one of my children or grandchildren.  Been there, done that, hope to not have to do it again.



2.  Do you like nuts in your Chocolate Chip cookies?  NO!



3.  If you couldn't change the channel, what tv show would drive you from the room?  Any of those "news" shows where the people talk all over each other and nothing really gets said--Hannity, Glenn Beck, etc.  Even if I agree with them, I can't stand listening to all that noise.


4.  Pulp or no pulp in your Orange Juice?  I can do some pulp, but don't want a lot.  



5.  Who do you miss the most?  Living: my grandchildren Melody and Elias.  They live with their father and step-mother in Washington state.  Haven't seen them since May and it breaks my heart.  For a long time, they lived within 5 miles, then they moved to GA, but were still within driving distance.  Not so anymore.   In heaven:  my daughter Shana.
