That's so funny -- my SIL just pointed out to me this weekend that she loves the same motto you love in point number 16. She showed me a plaque with it in a cataloge!
"tea". That was very clever. :v)
You and I are actually quite a bit alike! Except I can't believe someone out there does not like watermelon.
Hello, Peach Marie....(LOL)
I'm with you, Girl. Blue sapphires. Beautiful and they go so well with jeans. And I don't think I need to tell you how I feel about the beach. I swear, I'm ready to talk to Rob about the logistics of just hauling in 50,000 tons of sand and a lot of water because the beach is such a pipe dream for me, out here in the desert. But my heart is at the beach. Sigh.....
I totally stopped doing the credit card thing years ago. Scary. Debit card works for me because if I don't have the money for it, I probably shouldn't be buying it.
Real Simple is my second Bible. It really is. It's just a great magazine for anyone who's trying to run a house without losing her mind or her retirement fund. My all.time.favorite magazine.
I loved your response to this meme. A lot. :-)
You are going to be soooo disappointed when I win that Dyson.
That commenter above with the catchy name of 'Ask'? Uh huh. That's me. Chilihead.
Great to learn a little more about you!
