I know this blog is meant to be a place to share pictures and stories about my kids. But today is my birthday, so it's going to be all about me today. A friend forwarded me this list of questions forever ago. I love to read other people's responses, but I hate to spend the time making up my own. Several people comment about enjoying the "Simple Woman's Daybook," so I thought it'd be fun to mix it up for a change. I'll give it a shot today and see how far I get. Any deleted numbers took me too long to think about!
65 Questions You've Probably Never Been Asked...
1. First thing you wash in the shower? My hair
2. What color is your favorite hoodie? I call it a sweatshirt, and it's red
3. Would you kiss the last person you kissed again? You bet!
4. Do you plan outfits? Yes, I tend to choose my clothes the night before so I don't have to deal
with it in the morning. I don't lay things out ahead of time though.
5. How are you feeling RIGHT now? on the verge of tired
6. What's the closest thing to you that's red? my toenails and a toy ride-on car
8. Did you meet anybody new today? the worker at Caribou--she just finished her first year at the college I graduated from
9. What are you craving right now? to read a book
10. Do you floss? yes, several times a week.
11. What comes to mind when I say cabbage? Borscht & childhood (German soup/stew...love it!)
12. Are you emotional? not really, though my friend Brenda likely doesn't believe it--I've cried at every movie I've ever seen with her!
13. Have you ever counted to 1,000? I don't think so
14. Do you bite into your ice cream or just lick it? Both, when the need arises
15. Do you like your hair? yes, though I'm ready to dye it again...maybe later today
16. Do you like yourself? I do

This was awesome... thanks for posting. I love these things. I fill them out EVERY time I get one.
And FYI: white eggs come from white chickens, brown eggs come from brown chickens.
And if you need a good tattooist, I know of one. I'll be the little devil on your shoulder if you like. I've been jonesing for a new tat.
Fun to read.. I was surprised to see you were wearing a turquoise shirt today. The green one must be in the laundry?
Love you!
