01. What is your current obsession?
II guess decorating. I don't do much else.
02. What are you wearing today?
I haven't really decided. Jeans and a Tshirt.
03. What’s for dinner?
2Probably turkey burgers; but too early to be sure.
04. What’s the last thing you bought?
I ordered some grocery and pet products on line. So much easier to let someone bring it to me!! (free shipping of course)
05. What are you listening to right now?
Actually, just as I got here, the phone rang! :) Otherwise, the computer fan; rain dripping out the window; the cats wrestling; the furnace running.
06. What do you think about the person who tagged you?
No body "sent" it to me. I swiped it from my niece who swiped it from her sister, both of whom (and the 3rd sister) I love dearly!
07. If you could have a house totally paid for, fully furnished anywhere in the world, where would you like it to be?
High up in the Norch Carolina mountains! (but 2nd choice might be Kiawah Island, SC!)
08. One thing you wanna change about yourself?
It's hard to pick only one thing. Perhamps my stamina. If I didn't get so tired, I wouldn't get so grumpy. Then again, if I could have my vision back, I would be so frustrated.
09. If you could go anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go?
Just for an hour? I choose back to sleep!
10. Which language do you want to learn?
Spanish, so I could understand the neighbor children!
11. What’s your favorite quote?
It'll be all right in the end. If it isn't all right, it isn't the end.
12 . Would you cook for me?
Ummm ... who are "you"? I'm writing this for myself. I cook for myself all the time. Sort of. I'm not a very good cook any more (hard when you can't see well).
13. What is the right way to avoid people who purposefully hurt you?
There are a lot of people in my life who hurt me frequently. But none of them really do it on purpose (they just don't know any better). I would not have any contact with anyone who hurt me on purpose.
14. What are you afraid of the most?
Losing family members. Fire. Alligators. Needles.
15. Who do you want to meet right now?
Right now? I haven't showered or dressed - I don't want to meet anyone! LOL! But I would like to meet Richard Gere. And I'd love to meet Scotty McCreary - I'd like to apologize to him for not recognizing his voice when he called me; and let him know I really have listened to his CD! Also, I'd really enjoy meeting Greg Fischel!
16. What is your favourite color?
Most of the time it's purple. But sometimes it's red. Occasionally even yellow.
17. Give us 3 styling tips that work for you.
Style? I don't think I have any. I guess wear clothes that fit properly and are age-appropriate. And fat people shouldn't wear horizontal stripes!
18. What is your dream job?
Retirement - where I could actually be retired, not live-in slave labor.
19. What’s your favorite magazine?
I can't read magazines any more. I used to like Woman's Day and Family Circle; also Victoria. And decorating ones.
20. If you had $100 right now, what would you spend it on?
I'd save it for a rainy day. Oh wait. This IS a rainy day. I'd go shopping on line!
21. What do you consider a fashion faux pas?
Wearing anything too tight. Socks with anything but lace-up type shoes. Heels so high you wobble. Horizontal stripes on fat people. Anything that's inappropriate for the occasion (such as jeans at a formal dinner, or a cocktail dress at the bowling alley).
22. Who according to you is the most over-rated writer?
I have no clue, I only read authors I enjoy.
23. What brings a smile on your face instantly?
Hugs from my grandchildren
24. A word that you say a lot?
Nothing I can repeat in public! LOL! other than that ... either "seriously" or "cool".
25. What kind of haircut do you prefer?
I would prefer long wavy hair. But since my hair won't cooperate with that - and would look nasty on me - I'll settle for shortish, pinned out of my face, and keeping it neat. And preferably blue.
26. What are you going to do after this?
Take a shower. Then gather up trash to take to the dump when it stops raining.
27. What do you do when you are feeling low or terribly depressed?
Cry. Scream. Throw things. Slam doors. No wait, that's a temper tantrum. Depressed? Eat ice cream.
28. What makes you go wild?
Not real clear on what is meant by "go wild" ... but incompitency in a business that people have to depend on makes me furious.
29. What are your favorite movies?
Dirty Dancing; Miracle on 34th St.; The Santa Claus; Shall We Dance; Gigi; Wizard of Oz; Mama Mia;
30. What inspires you?
Nothing much lately.
31. What do your friends call you most commonly?
Betty. only, no one calls me.
32. Would you prefer coffee or tea?
Coffee!!!
33. Which other blogs do you love visiting?
There are a lot I read occasionally (but since I have to limit my time on line, not so much any more). I always check the family ones - not that some of them get updated very much. :(
.
34. Favorite dessert/sweet?
That's hard! Anything chocolate, or peppermint, or key lime. Or maybe Krispy Kreme donuts. A key-lime filled donut would be fabulous!!
35. How many tabs are open in your browser right now?
Five
36. When you looked at yourself in the mirror today, what was the first thing you thought?
I haven't done that yet. But when I do, my most usual thought is "I wish I could see well enough to know if my hair is ok".
37. Favorite season?
Fall, especially October. Warm days, cool nights, colorful leaves, yellow flowers ... love it all!
38. One wish that you really want to see come true?
To win the lottery - so then I could hire people to do all the things that I can't do and wishing can't change!
39. What breaks your heart?
Cruelty to animals or children; old people being ignored; war; homeless people; incurable illnesses; devastation caused by nature or by insanity.
40. What's one thing you really want to do in life?
I really doubt I'll ever get to do most of the things I always wanted to do. But my "bucket list" includes a ride in a limosine; to ride an elephant; a ride in a hot air baloon; take a cruise.
Also I always wanted to design and build my dream house. I'd love to be able to at least have my design turned into a real blueprint, even though I can't build a house.
