ABC's of me

Taking a break from sewing and working on some wedding things for my daughter - and had to catch up on my favorite blogs. I saw this on Tonya's blog today and couldn't resist participating too. So here are my ABC's:


A - Age - the speed limit . . . 55

B - Bed size - queen, which is just right to share with a BIG cat and my hubbie

C - Chore you hate - yard work, and luckily my husband is willing to do it all

D - Dog's name - no current dog, but we used to have a border collie named Betty

E - Essential "start your day" item - coffee and an oatmeal bar

F - Favorite color - red

G - Gold or silver? Silver or white gold are my favorites, but I do love Black Hills gold and it is yellow, pink, and greenish.

H - Height - about 5' 3"

I - Instruments you play - I'm not musical in the least, unfortunately

J - Job title - education specialist (just a fancy way of saying I do staff development with teachers)

K - Kids - 2 grown daughters

L - Living arrangements - my husband Dave and a 19 pound cat named Sammy

M - Mom's name - Jane

N - Nicknames - never had one

O - Overnight hospital stays (except when giving birth) - getting my tonsils out, my appendix out, my gall bladder out, . . . and I know there are more.

P - Pet peeve - people who are narrow minded

Q - Quote from a movie - there are too many to list here, because I LOVE movies.

R - Right or left handed? Right

S - Siblings? none

T - Time you wake up - through the week 6:30 am, on the weekends 7:30 or 8:00

U - Underwear? of course - except in the shower!

V - Vegetable you dislike - stewed tomatoes

W - Workout style - are we supposed to workout? Does going down/up the stairs to and from the sewing room count?

X - X-rays you've had - broken toe and a couple of chest x-rays

Y - Yesterday's best moments - going to the movies with my husband

Z - Zoo favorites - I love going to the zoo, but my favorite exhibits have to be the big cats
