Round about…

My first post was pretty much about me, my fam, and that stuff. Here I thought I’d do like a Playboy Bunny interview. You know, I like long walks on the beach, candlelit dinners, soft music….

AHHHHHH!!!!

Let’s see, I like loud, metal music. And sometimes hard rock, country, techno, house, jazz, blues, oldies - we’re talking before the nineteen sixties, peeps- R&B, and classical.

I’ll read just about anything. I know, I said that. What I didn’t say is that does occasionally include the toilet paper package and the back of the Lysol can. Did you know that Cottonelle is both soft and strong, LOL?

I’ve lived in two different states, though I’ve lived in a total of ten, and I could be missing a couple, different houses. Most of them I didn’t have a choice, my family moved so I did too. But I have lived at four different houses in the ten years I’ve been married.

I don’t really like little dogs. I know, I’m horrible. It’s not that they are bad or anything like that, it’s just that if I want something to wind about my legs and get underfoot, I’d rather it hiss and spit and not yip. I love all dogs, but having a small one as the family pet just wouldn’t work out. Especially not when my tom-cat weighs in at a hefty twenty-six pounds and is more than three feet long from nose to the base of his tail. That’s not the tip, but the part where his tail attaches to his body.

So, we have a Greater Swiss Mountain dog mix. She’s cute as a button, fantastic with the kids, and is at least fifteen pounds heavier than the cat. LOL, no worries that I’ll accidentally break one of her legs if I trip over her. I’ll add a pic of her. The kids named her Daisy and it fits. The cat is Shadow, after the character from “Bear in the Big Blue House”, which my oldest girls loved as toddlers.

I love old muscle cars over any of the pregnant rollerskates that are popular nowadays. Despite that, it sure would be nice to have a muscle car with the mentality of a rollerskate - it’d be better for the environment and my pocketbook. Since that’s the case, I drive a car that is made to run on ethanol mix, which works out for both my economy and the air I like breathing. I’d still love a hemi with four on the floor, though…

I’m not a morning person, I don’t fuss in the mirror, I can talk for hours on the phone or spend it almost completely in silence with someone just sharing breathing time, LOL. I have gray hair, I won’t lie, but I do have nice, long, natural fingernails. I’m a bit of a control freak, and I tend to procrastinate when I’m really stressed out… Which of course only increases my stress levels, LMAO!!!

Okay, I can’t think of anything else, but if you guys have questions, feel free to ask away. I’ll answer just about anything!!

Here’s the puppy (don’t mind the laundry, LOL, she thought that was her toy basket!):

    How can you not like little dogs??? My beagle is completely offended now, and may never forgive you. LOL. Watch your ankles the next time you come to visit.

    Hugs,

    Hey, Jo-z is an exception. Little dog though she is, she never tried to get under my feet. She and my Grandma’s Yorkies fill up the short list of little dogs I liked.

    You know, I don’t like big dogs with little dog mentalities either, come to think of it. Not a fan of labs, retrievers, boxers, et al high strung medium/large breeds. I am NOT saying they aren’t good dogs and pets. I’m just saying they aren’t for me. I may not want to share a home with them, but I’ve never met a dog I didn’t like.
