    Wee Bit Wednesday

     

    {one} how many times have you been a bridesmaid/maid of honor?
     

    I was a junior bridesmaid when I was 8, if that counts.
     

     

    {two} what’s the last thing your do before you fall asleep at night?

    Usually read or watch a little tv.

     

    {three} you just won your dream vacation, all expenses paid. where are you going?
     

    Somewhere tropical, secluded with a spa.
     

     

    {four} what is your favorite outdoor activity?
     

    I love hiking, especially around Lake Superior but we don’t do that often.  
     

    Going for walks around here is always pleasant.
     

     

    {five} as a child, what did you want to “be when you grew up”? did you end up there?
     

    I always wanted to be a mom…and I am. I’m lucky to be at home full-time. 
     

    My parents had “higher aspirations ” for me….’be a doctor like you uncle and grandpa.’  
     

    That was their dream…not mine.
     

     

    {six} what are 3 things your dream home would have that you don’t currently have?
     

    A craft room/studio, 3 car garage and a mudroom.
     

     

    {seven} what’s for dinner tonight?
     

    Leftovers
     

     

    {eight} if someone stopped by your house unannounced on a typical Saturday night, what would they find you doing?

    Either on our deck or watching a movie on DVD…weather dependent.

     

    {nine} what’s your average monthly water bill?
     

    About $27 nine months of the year. During summer it’s close to $40 when we water the lawn.
     

     

    {ten} what do you do to relax?

    Talk on the phone, read or make art

    Tea Tuesday

    …with iced coffee….and then about a gallon of water.

    It’s a hot one today!

    I had to get out there and get the massively overgrown bushes trimmed this morning before it gets really hot and humid later. Although, it was plenty hot already when I came in. YUCK!

    Stop by Kimmie’s for the full list of Tea Tuesday participants.

    Sweet gift

    So earlier this busy week when I picked up the girl from school, her teacher sent along this sweet gift.

    The caption at the top reads:
    Thanks for helping us grow.

    How sweet is that! The pot was signed by all 27 kids in the class just for helping out on library day throughout the year!
    I love it!!
