I Truly Heart Lists

1. What was the last thing about which you procrastinated?

Cleaning out the pantry. There’s a stuffed giraffe from O’s Easter basket, an E-Z bake oven, and a tiered can shelf which I knew would solve all my pantry-organizational problems.

2. How long does it take you to fall asleep, and do you sleep through the night?

I wait to turn off the t.v. until I am positive I will fall asleep within ten minutes. I HATE to toss and turn. If I don't fall asleep right away, my mind starts reeling, and before I know it, I’m online at Mayo Clinic investigating the fatal disease I have now convinced myself that I have.

3. Which decade would you choose to exemplify your favorite fashion styles?

The 30’s. Give me a flapper dress, long necklace and sassy hair. Which is almost what I wore to a wedding on Saturday, minus the sassy hair.

4. What is your personal best dish to feed a crowd?

Braised short ribs, parmesan polenta, and tipsy tomatoes.

5. Are you an impulse shopper? What was the last thing you bought on impulse?

I love to impulse shop! Today I bought a bottle of Lauren Blue perfume at Wal-Mart, yes, Wal-Mart, for $6.00!! It’s a small sample size, which is perfect, because I’ve been wanting to try Lauren Blue.

Now, I only impulse shop for things under $20, though.

6. What is one wish you have for your own funeral?

That my daughter and grandchildren would be comforted by the fact that they’ll see me again!

7. If it's true that joy is in found in the simple things in life, what does your joy look like today?

Holding hands with my honey and daughter as walk around the neighborhood, talking to my mom on the phone while she is at Aunt Betty’s.

8. What is your favorite type of bread?

Crusty, artisan bread with kalamata olives.

9. What trait do you fear developing the most? (Laziness, greediness, grumpiness, etc.)

I battle laziness and grumpiness, so I guess greediness!

10. What trait would you like most to develop?

Persistence and consistency

11. Which room in your house best reflects your personality? Why?

Our bedroom – coral and pink florals, with a lilac print on the wall. My favorite thing is a silk scarf I have draped over a table which I bought at an antique store in Indiana. Love it!

12. How do you maintain balance in your life regarding, work, family, church, other organizations and activities, and blogging?

Keep the main things the main things. Each day my main priorities are time in the Word, exercise, homeschool, meals for the family, and maintaining the house (in the loosest sense of the word!).
