Riddle me that…
I know you are patiently waiting for my winner… I am going to post again in a little. Sweat baby! Sweat! LOL
In the mean time, here are the answers to my latest wave of questions. You guys really asked me some great stuff!!!
- Bettinaon asked me,
But I want to know, as we all become a little more sedate in life and crafting becomes our outlet, what is the craziest thing you’ve ever done?
I can’t really say that I was necessarily all that crazy, but I miss Thursday night Karaoke after classes! The business department was closed on Friday’s, so we always went drinking after classes!
2. # Dawnmercedes wanted to know: If you had to have another hobby, other than stamping, what would it be
I used to cross stitch, so maybe I would still be doing that- but I wish I could draw or paint.
3. Allisonon Gawd…I can’t think of any interesting questions…any tattoos?
No, no tats. But I would love to get one- I can’t though because of being on blood thinners.
4. Debra asked me, When you were little, what did you think you were going to be?
I wanted to be a pediatrician. I wish I would have gone for it!
5. Michelle said, Fun questions so far! Mine is: Do you ever get sick of the chocolate smell? I visited Hershey a couple of summers ago and was surprised at how much it really did smell like chocolate - then went to the Reese’s plant (My fave - yum!) and it smelled like peanut butter!
Sometimes, yes. I am on the edge of Hershey/Hummelstown, but really close to the plant. You can smell it sometimes and it can make me sort of nauseated!
6. Linda SS wanted to know, I am enjoying your blog. Please tell me the reason that you are partial to Boston Terriers. (besides the fact they are so CUTE:-) My husband said he had one when he was young & the only thing he remembers about Cuddles is that he was very gassy. I am interested in hearing about this breeds attributes.
Thanks, Linda SS
I am partial because I love “bully” breeds- bulldogs, mastiffs, boxers, etc. Her size and personality suit my lifestyle. She is such a comic! Oh, and your husband is right- they are SUPER gassy! LOL
7. doverdion asked, “If you could change one thing about your life, what would it be?”
Honestly? Not one thing. My life has changed a lot in the past year and all for the better. I couldn’t be happier!
8. Kimmie said, I’m going to ask ….. what was the best lesson that you ever learned to help you through life??
That there is nothing more important than family and friends. When I became ill last year and was hospitalized, it was a real turning point for me. I took a good hard look at my life and couldn’t believe how much I took for granted. Especially those that love me. Life is what you make of it- if you want it to be good it’s up to you.
9. Stephanie wanted to know, Hmmmmm…..a question…….How about: What was your favorite and least favorite part of high school?
I was the in between kid- I got along with most everyone and didn’t really belong to a group. I could hang out with anyone. I don’t miss HS though- you couldn’t pay me to go back to being a teenager. College on the other hand… now those were really good times!
10. Shannonon: What is the one simple thing you can’t live without?
Flavored coffee cream!
11. Shelley ~ photocropper: What was the craziest thing you have ever done?
I will share mine if you email me?
hehehe
I don’t really have an answer to that… I wasn’t really all that crazy. BUT you can email me your answers!! teehee
12. Susanon My question to you is: Where do you want to be in life in 5 years? 10 years? Do you dream of children? A career? You mentioned you work in a family business…can you share more?
WOW… so much to say here! I will try to be short. Yes, I do want children. Badly! I am not allowed to get pregnant right now though because of my blood clot last year. Soooo as soon as the restriction is lifted, I will be blogging preggo style!
My family does commercial HVAC. I am the controller there. I over see all the financial parts of the business and the HR as well. The business has been in my family since the 70’s. It was my grandfathers and my dad took it over.
My brother is working on a webpage, you can see a little of what we are doing here: http://www.hcnyeco.com/index.asp
13. jodeneon asked, My question is what is your favorite thing to do with your stamping supplies?
I like a little of everything! I am not particular… if I am stamping, I am happy!
14. Sharon in NE
I swear my dog (a papillon) can read my mind…alright, maybe its light reading, but it can’t be easy because my thought pattern flicks around between subjects so fast its hard to figure out. (see? where was I…) Some people think dogs can read their owners minds and seem to be one step ahead of them. What do you think?
I think I agree with that! Grace seems to know what I am feeling a lot!
15. Claudia F.: Neat idea….my question is this: How high is “UP”?
Could you please repeat the question? LOL
16. Jan Scholl:
You are being exiled to an island and must take one item to grow for food. What would you take? Remember this will be your only thing to eat for the rest of your life.
I am not sure, but it would be a carb… like biscuits or Spanish rice!



Amusing…I am glad they weren’t all stamping questions! And I am all about the carbs!
