This Week's Random Dozen...

If you have never joined the Random Dozen, just hop over to Linda's blog and link up. The ladies are wonderful and it is a lot of fun!

The first 6 come from Kelley at I Didn’t Know That! Thanks so much, Kelley! And can you please help us out with #4???

1. Do you use the labels various charities send you as “free gifts?”

Of course, are we not suppose to? It would be a shame to just throw them out. Right?

2. What is your favorite time of day (or night) for skywatching?

Depending upon the time of year, but at sunset, so 5ish now, 8ish during the summer. I love the way God uses the sky as His canvas!

3. What is the most adventurous you've ever been with trying a new food?
(Keep it G-rated please)

I wasn’t real sure what you meant by this, but I have tried some foods that I thought were on the adventurous side. Frog Legs – My daughter and her dad used to go frog gigging and when they got home he would fix them. They are really good after you get over watching them jumping in the pan.

And I have had rattlesnake. Absolutely love it. When my kid was little we would take a ride across the mountain and if he saw one crossing the road, he would stop and get out of the truck and shoot it and then cut its head off. You have to make sure it does not bite itself or the meat will make you sick. So yes, I would think that is a little adventurous.

4. Have you ever heard a rock sing? (Trust me, there's a reason for this one!)

No can’t say that I have…

5. If you could learn a language you don't presently speak, what would it be?

Probably Spanish.

6. Al Capone's tombstone read, “My Jesus, Mercy.” If you could write your own epitaph, what would it say?

Enjoyed Life!

7. If you were a famous musician who was known by one name, like “Cher,” “Sting,” or “Jewel,” what would it be? It doesn’t have to be your first name, but it can be, if you’d like.

HeavenBound Yeah I know that is not really one word, but I’m the musician right?

8. Have you ever been inordinately “into” a television show?

Oh Lid… Confession time. I like Days… I know shame, shame, shame.

9. When you sneeze, do you go big, or do you do that weird “heenh!” sound that makes people think you’re going to blow your brains out? Any other variation we should know about?

This is funny, because me and hubby were just talking about this last night. He has such a cute little sneeze. And then there is mine. I think the neighbors can hear me. Seriously, I can clear a room. And I have tried to do it different, but it just doesn’t work. lol

10. Do you still read an actual newspaper that you hold in your hands, or do you get your news elsewhere?

I pick up a paper once in awhile, but usually read the news online.

11. Are you a good speller?

Yes, I usually am. And I hate it, cause I always notice spelling mistakes. I blame it on that proofreading class I took when I went back to school after my divorce. Grammar I am not the best at, but spelling I can do.

12. At what time each day do you start thinking about Lost lunch?

We don’t do lunch. I must confess though, we are up till 2 or 3 in the morning, so sleep till 10 or so usually. So I do breakfast, supper, then a light snack about 10 at night.

Well there are my adventurous answers, now head on over to Lid's and join in the fun!

But first some more exciting news –

I won the “Traveling Book” on Joyce’s Blog. After I receive it and read it, I will do the honors and pass it on to some lucky person in blog land. I would like to offer a special thanks to Robin at “Be Still and Know…” for coming up with this wonderful idea. Yeah Robin!

Until next time... nel
