I' ve been seeing all these silly things 'all about me', things and decided I would do one. My own questions.

It's all about me!

Are you ready?

 

1. Are you happy? YES, YES, YES, YES, Yes! Life is good.

 

2. Favorite meal? Hmmm...a few beef tacos, or a nice caprese salad. (Maybe that's an appetizer?) Chicken Kiev, yeah!

 

3. Favorite tv show? I love cooking shows, and I love Guy Fieri (Guy's Big Bite, Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. On the Food Network) He's so into food!!

 

and Gordon Ramsay( Kitchen Nightmares, Hell's Kitchen, Gordon's The F word).

He cusses like a sailor and still praises his victims. It' a love-hate relationship.

 

 I also love mysteries, so there's CSI, CSI NY, I love Monk, Psych..(MaybeI can't spell that) It's on USA after Monk. NCIS, JAG and Medium. I have a very hard time deciding what channel to watch. Not to mention the premium stations!

 

4. Favorite sit-coms? 2 and 1/2men and My Name is Earl. I also record old showings of Frasier and 3rd Rock from the Sun. My dog thinks I'm funny when I laugh out loud.

 

5. My favorite store to shop at? Hmm...Target, Wal-Mart, Macy's and JCPenneys. (They have tank tops that I love!) Oh and don't forget 'Fredricks" (LOL)

 

6. Favorite food? Chicken Kiev. Anything Italian. Anything Mexican. Anything Greek. And don't forget pineapple.

 

7.Favorite aroma? For myself, it's either cucumber, vanilla or grapefruit. For the room, cinammon. In fresh air...mint.

I have a mint bush by my front door.

 

8. My favofrite person in the whole wide world? It is such a toss up, but  gotta  say Hubby. He is the greatest guy. Sexy, smart and sweet. He'll hold a sleeping child until his arms fall off. He'll work on your alternator ( fill in any car part here) 'till he gets it fixed.

You need cough syrup in the middled of the night? He'll go to the store even though he has to get up at 5AM the next morning. 

He's a big guy, but he's as gentle as a lamb.

 

9. I love getting older. I have so much leeway! I can talk to strangers and not be considered dangerous. My mind is still good, so I still have a decent memory. I have an opinion and can discuss my widom with my younger family members. They don't question me!

 

10 Life is great. It's all a test. God wants to know what you're made of. You lose people and things and still you carry on. Love is hope eternal. We have greatness ahead us and it's in all of us!

 

Ok, for the rest of the regular people...

 

11. Time? 2:45 Tuesday

 

12. What did you do today? Bought groceries and had some blood taken.

 

13 What are you wearing? Jeans, T-shirt, bra, fip-flops, 2 rings and a smile.

 

14. What did I eat last? Queen olives, bagel crisps, baby bell cheese, artichokes.

 

15. What am I looking forward to? Tomorrow.

 

 

Hope all is well with you. Don't forget that life is tough. After all, nobody gets out alive. (stolen from someone)

 

Take care,

Dana

Do you listen to praise music? "Lord I lift Your name on high" "Lord I love to sing Your praises". Music like that?

 

I do. And it brings tears to my eyes. I don't do enough for the Lord. And I know it. I so fall short. I try, but I fall short. Gotta work on that. We all need the Lord.  

 

 

The Princess spent the night with us last night. She is so funny. What a sense of humor!! She got into telling KNOCK-KNOCK jokes and got so sidetracked!! It turned into "knock-knock" "whose there?" "I forgot!" What a hoot!!

 

Yesterday, Hubby and I took Annah (the baby) to lunch and then went shopping. She is a chunk. She's 13 weeks old and weighs in at 15 pounds! She is such a smiley baby. Beautiful eyes and big dimples! If we thought The Princess (Grace) was a looker, wait for Annah!!

 

Hubby bought me a beautiful ring yesterday! Maybe a picture soon.

 

Chelle is still cancer free as far as anyone can tell (doctor included). She's having a few immune system problems, but nothing serious. Thank you God, AMEN!

 

Did I tell you that we bought a new vehicle last November? A big, black Ford pick-up. I don't know why. Hubby got the new car fever. (I think the guys at work all went on a binge.)

It's our first NEW car in over 20 years. I didn't even know we had credit until then! But Lordy, do I hate car payments!! It's so big that the bottom of the side windows are the same heights as my shoulders! I'm 5'7".

 

I'm trying to stay on my 'stomach bug' diet. I got a bug back in January and now am trying to ride it all the way to my normal size. I've got about 15# to go. I'm SO glad I didn't cull my closet!! I have all kinds of new clothes in there! It's like going shopping. I think I've lost about 25 pounds. (thank you to the bad knee)

 

The knee is doing ~OK~. I think I've got some adhesions in the muscles, so I'm working hard to bust them up. OK, maybe not so 'hard'....but I am trying to bend it past the 'safety zone'. Thank you Ibuprofen and Vicoden.

 

Alrighty then, go back to your home work and I'll visit another time!

Hey~

 

Just a short one to say that life does get better with time. I guess it's a healing thing. Most of the time, the knee pain level is (on a scale from 1-10) only a 2 or so and then once in a while it jumps to a 7 or an 8 for a few seconds.

 

Hubby and I went dancing on Valentine's Day. Our church had a family night that included dancing and hot dogs. Our church has only been around about three years, but they sent out invitations and had more than 350 cars. That translates into about 1200-1500 people. Look out world, we're winning!

 

I'm really enjoying my day job. I go to my daughter's house and watch Annah for the day. She is a chunk! She weighs about 15 pounds and is only 3 months old. She is a smiley one. With those long, dark eyelashes and two huge dimples, she is so pretty! I'll get a current picture up as soon as I can.

 

Life is good.
