Rockin' Girl Blogger

I was tagged by Shaunte. She's a Rockin' Girl Blogger and I guess now I am too! :-)

1. Your entire family has gone away for the weekend. The house is all yours. What are the first three things you do? Hmmm...let's see...I certainly wouldn't waste it cleaning, or doing laundry and anything 'productive' like that. I'd have to say I would: #1 - Sleep in; #2 - Do some scrapping; #3 - Do some more scrappin' (of course!)

2. Your bankbook is looking healthy, you have a four-day weekend ahead. What sounds good? First, I would wonder if I made a mistake when I balanced my checkbook! Then, I'd probably head online to do some scrapbook supply shopping (if only I looked as cute as this gal while doing it!) and take Kaitlin to the movies or something that we don't ordinarily do.

3. What do you do while waiting in the doctors office? Luckily, I've never had to spend much time there - either for myself or Kaitlin - but I usually just thumb through some magazines...and discretely keep my distance from the other people that look REALLY sick.

4. Would you rather spend an afternoon alone in a book store, a mall, napping in the hammock? A bookstore. I not much of a shopper (unless you're talking about online scrapbook supply shopping, that is) and I've never even been in a hammock. I'd probably fall out and hurt myself!


5. You have an unexpected 48 hour stay in the hospital. You're coherent and not in pain. How do you spend the time? Reading? Channel surfing? Laptop surfing? Calling your friends to come visit? Ringing for a nurse every five minutes? Sleeping? Enjoy the peace and quiet first of all. Then, I'd probably do a little reading, channel surfing, internet surfing (updating blog, scrapbook supply shopping...do you see any trends here?), and a little extra sleep never hurt anybody.

6. You have a nine hour trans-continental flight. How do you pass the time? Reading a hot novel? Watching the in-flight movies? Become best friends with the stranger seated next to you? Take three valium and sleep the time away?
Read, watch, sleep...probably in that order. As for the stranger, I guess it would entirely depend on how 'strange' they happened to be. I had a bad experience when I was about ten and had to take about a 10 hour bus trip by myself...I don't like to talk to strangers...

7. You have a seven hour layover in Chicago O'Hara airport. Do you wear down your cellphone battery calling friends? Read a book? People watch? Shop every store in the airport? Take a taxi and see the city? People watch...for awhile. I've never been to Chicago, so I'd probably do a little exploring and spend time taking some pictures.

8. What do you do when you're bored stiff? I don't know...I'm usually too busy to get bored.

9. Work first, play later? OR play while you can, the work will still be there when you get home? Work first, play later. The work is what supports the play.

10. List three times that you are easily bored. Long car rides. Watching any kind of sports. (Although, I have a strange love for sports movies...can't explain it.) Anytime I'm trying to watch TV when my husband has control of the remote - he's an incessant clicker. Just about the time I get interested in something, he changes the channel...EVERY TIME! That's when I usually leave and go do some online scrapbook supply shopping...heh...heh...

The 'tag' must go on. If you are reading this, consider yourself tagged. Copy and paste the 'Rockin' Girl Blogger' button, the questions (replacing my answers with yours of course) and go post! Please leave a link to your post here...I'd love to read your answers!! (Some of these would make a great jumping off point for a scrapbook page!)
