Tuesday Tidbits

>Here at home:
Most of my friends in the deep South couldn’t imagine a 10-12′ wall of snow unless I provided a picture, and I forgot to take my camera Sunday. But that’s what we have here piled along the roadways. It’s a bit treacherous on small two-lane roads when you can’t see around the piles and have to venture the front of your car out and chance getting hit. Yikes.

On my nightstand:
Necessary Arrangements by Tanya Michna

Considering some of the things going on with my relatives right now, I probably shouldn’t be reading this book. Lots of teary moments, but anything by Tanya is good reading.

From my DVR:
The Winter Olympics – what else?

In the DVD:
We’ve been watching The West Wing straight through Season 1-7. We’re getting close to finishing up Season 6 and have slowed down – mainly because we don’t want it to end. This show we actually bought all the DVD’s.

Hubby and I watched NEXT with Nicholas Cage on Saturday night for the first time. It was pretty good and action packed. Love Netflix and their vast selection.

Going Places:
Hubby took me to see Avatar in 3D as part of our Valentine’s Day celebration. Awesome movie. He didn’t say so until afterward, but he didn’t expect to like it – just went because he knew I wanted to see it. Gotta love a man like that and I do!

So… Have you seen anything good lately that I should check out?

My Award

>

Today I was awarded this lovely Picasso bouquet from Carol Kilgore with the conditions that I tell you seven things about myself and extend the award to seven others. Right now, I’m thinking the snow in my front yard may linger till Easter – easily – so Spring-like flowers are a welcome sight. (Thanks, Carol K!)

Okay, so here are the seven things. I had to dig a bit deeper for them because Carol K’s list of seven was me to a ‘T’. So, if you’d like to know 14 things about me, read her list too.

1. I believe greeting cards should express what you feel about the person you’re giving them to. (Yeah, I’m one of those people who blocks the aisle, picking over the cards for eons. Go ahead. Hate me. I’ll keep doing it anyway.)
2. I love puzzles – crossword, logic, jigsaw, Sudoku, Anacrostics, etc…
3. I once read a story from a fifth-grade reader to my first-grade class at story time. (I was six at the time.)
4. I married my high-school sweetheart.
5. My favorite color fluctuates between green and purple.
6. I’m a Leo.
7. I’m the 4th child of JC and Minnie Ruth White.

And now, I’m extending the award to:
2. Walt Mussell at Daddy Needs Decaf (who needs your help with a slogan for a ninety-yr-old’s birthday)
4. Terry Spear aka Terry Lee Wilde
5. Gail Dayton at Dreaming in Daylight
Can’t wait to see what bits of themselves they’ll share. 🙂
