Tag

My sister-in-law Sarah tagged me today in a game of blog tag. The game is to get tagged, answer that person's questions and then pass the tag on.


1. What specifically has made you feel happy today?
Jonathan came home from a 3 day scout camp today and we missed him sooo much. Even better than having him home was watching Julianna's reaction to seeing him after 3 days.

2. Are you a morning person or a night owl? 
As much as I love mornings and feeling so good about getting up early to get things done, I love sleeping in even more. So I would have to say I'm a night owl. In fact I can't remember the last time I went to bed before midnight.

3. If you had/have free time, what would you/do you spend that time doing? 
Call me crazy, but I would probably clean.

4. What is your favorite breakfast?
I LOVE pancakes, but even more, I love having someone else make me pancakes.

5. You are alone in the house. No one is watching. You are listening to your favorite music. What kind of music is it? Are you singing along? Are you dancing? Remember, no one is watching. =)
Something completely sinfully trashy.......Brittney!! And of course I would have to sing and bust out some moves.

6. What have you never tried but really want to?
I think it would be a career aspiration that I have never fulfilled. I have always wanted to be a nurse.

7. Do you have a favorite holiday? If so, what is it and why?
I just realised that in Australia, what we call a holiday is what American's call a vacation, so Im a little confused about whether the question is for my favourite "holiday" or "vacation", so I'll answer both.


In American terms my favourite holiday is Christmas. I love everything about Christmas. I love the decoration, the spirit of it all, the food, the smells and of course the very reason for the holiday.


In Australian terms my favourite holiday was about  5 years ago when I went away for 8 weeks. In that time I visited Singapore, London, Paris, Manchester, Los Vegas and then Idaho.

8. What is the most recent thing that someone has done for you that made a difference in your day?
I did the most ridiculously stupid, mindless thing today. When I got Julianna dressed this morning I forgot to put her nappy on. Needless to say my floor needs mopping......Jonathan came home just in time (I may have played the pregnancy card with that one).  


Im afraid my tags and questions will have to wait until after I have washed Julianna's pants.

Daddy's Girl

Jonathan has been away all weekend on Scout camp. He gets home tomorrow and I'm counting down the hours. Last night, at about midnight, I heard a very soft, "Dadda? Dadda?" through the baby monitor.

I think I'm not the only one counting down the hours.

A Trip Down Memory Lane

We have all been so sick lately. Jonathan just came down with a head cold yesterday, I slipped 3 discs in my back and ended up at the hospital and Julianna has been teething like crazy. I took a few minutes to myself this morning (I figured I deserved it) and was looking through You Tube. I came across my favourite commercials from when I was a kid. I can't believe how dated they are but they still made me laugh.
