Hey Barb! How about Thursday night? This is what is going on starting at 7pm: "Join with believers from all over Las Vegas as we come together for a concert of prayer. We will be praying for personal, family, citywide, and global concerns."
Yeah, it would be funny! but I have had it happen before - it is a smallllllll world!

Putting it on my calendar; no promises, but if we do go, I will PM you early enough so you know.

yes, I bought a desert landscape painting that is round. It's very cool ! I have to get a hand made frame for it, so it sits on top of my piano for now.

Sounds cool indeed!

Where do you get your news? (newspaper, tv, radio, online?)

What is one of your favorite "spare time" activities (i.e. reading, gardening, watching tv)?

If you're a tv watcher, which do you prefer - reality tv (Survivor, American Idol), sitcoms (no examples - don't watch them), dramas (L&O, CSI) or how to (i.e. HGTV, Food Network)? Or do you watch the older shows (Cosby, MASH, Bonanza) on Nick at Nite and/or TV Land?

What is one of your favorite "spare time" activities (i.e. reading, gardening, watching tv)? I don't have a lot of spare time, but I'm working in a 24 hour sabbath, where I'll have time to do things. I used to love reading, cross stitching, and cooking of course!

Or do you watch the older shows (Cosby, MASH, Bonanza) on Nick at Nite and/or TV Land? The TV is on, but I don't really 'watch' a lot of it. However, I like Monk, and I feel "safe" with the Food network (less likely to be naked and swearing.. hehe). No "reality" shows for me.. it bothers me they are fooling the public that way. **off soapbox**

thanks edie!

hi Deb!

Usually I focus on the bad... hmmm... let's see... I can strike up a conversation with a stranger anywhere (and usually do). I will do anything for my friends/family/strangers, if it's in my capacity to do so.

besides dust bunnies?? ROTFL

I used to collect CocaCola things, but got too poor to continue. It's a very small collection... hehe

What comment or conversation has had a great impact on you?

My brother told me I was as fat as an elephant when I was 6. That had a great impact on me.

I've had lots of conversations that had a big impact on me, but they are all muddled up in my brain.

just thought I'd share a picture I took in Turkey last year.

 

[edie19]

If your phone were to ring right now - who would you want to talk to?

When was the last time you laughed until it hurt? Why - what was so funny?

edie

 

[martinique]

good questions....

hmm..I don't usually answer my phone! Let's see.. gosh this one is difficult. I love to talk, but not on the phone. I guess I'd have to say my sister in Turkey.

I wish my memory was better. I think the last time I laughed that hard was a couple of months ago at a family reunion when all the "old stories" got retold.

I'll tell my daughter - she used the questions at her church and suggested them to me.

Don't you love the "old stories?" I know for my sisters and myself, we get some of our biggest laughs from old pictures. The bring back memories of course, and then we remember something funny related to that memory.

 

[martinique]

oh yes! I love when family gets together - there is always some "new story" that we just find out about, or relive through the telling of an old one.

Who would you like to be more like... your mother or your father?

 

[martinique]

Anyone who really knows me, knows I'm a really good blend of both. However, if I had to choose which parent I'd LIKE to be most like. I would pick my mother. Her faith is amazing, and just from that aspect I'd like to be more like her.
