Self Inflicted Survey

What is the most exciting thing you did this weekend?

We drove up to David and Kathy’s annual Fall Open House and then had supper with my mom, sister and brother-in-law at the best Pizza Hut in America.

What is the oddest chore you have done this week?

My kids would tell you that it was odd to see me do any chore last week…..

What is the most ridiculous thing you attempted this week?

Getting up on time?

What is on your project list?

I want to learn conversational Spanish so that I am more employable.

What are you reading for fun?

The Twitter Book

What are you reading to improve your mind?

God’s Word

What is nearby and making you smile?

My son lying on the couch with each of the dogs trying to find the best spot to lie down on him for the most comfort and who can be closer to his face.

What are you doing right now to soothe your soul?

Watching the Yankees game 6 in the ALCS.

What should you be doing instead of this?

You name it, I should be doing it.

What kind of sunglasses do you wear?

The kind that clips to my glasses.

What is your current favorite song?

Dive by Steven Curtis Chapman

How is your iPod (or other music player) organized?

In alphabetical order but with the shuffle turned on.

What have you not had time for lately that you miss?

Making cards with rubber stamps

What is the strangest thing on your desk?

Since I’m not really working, I don’t really have a desk that I work on.  And since I have Flat Surface Disease, I could really just pick one flat surface and tell you the strangest thing on it because there are dozens to choose from.  But, it would have to be Larissa’s work shoes on the dining room table.  And of course, there is a logical explanation why there was a pair of dirty shoes on the table.  If they weren’t up on the table, the dogs would be trying to chew all the McD’s yummies out of the tread of the shoes….But in her defense; Larissa didn’t put them on the table.

What would you be blogging about right now if you had the time and/or brain power?

Faith (or lack thereof)

What do you have in your pocket that is not usually there?

Medicine in a little plastic bag!

That will do for now. You can participate and know that you are not answering questions posed by a bored teenager. Feel free to play along.

Each Friday there will be a new challenge as long as you keep sending in subjects. (See the two posts below this one for previous and upcoming subjects.)

The photo challenge is not a contest. It's not about who comes up with the best photo or who has the most expensive equipment. I would like it to be about people from all over the world who love taking pictures. I think there's enough competition going on in the world, so you can't win anything, except maybe some new xanga friends.

Have fun!

Here are my entries for this week's photo challenge.

Juliann (Graves) Kurtze and Rachael (Graves) McDonald

I stole this picture from Rachael's Facebook...Juliann (left) and Rachael (right)

I didn't take this one either: we didn't get to go to either of the girls' weddings...

Ethan and James (the Benny thing is a family joke....)
