Saturday 9 St Patricks
1. St. Patrick's Day is March 17th (Thursday). Do you celebrate and wear green? Drink Green Beer? Ignore it?
I used to celebrate it more when I worked. I would dress in green, participate in celebrations during the day. Now as a housewife I don't tend to get into it as much.
2. If a leprechaun told you that you could have any amount of money from his pot of gold but it had to be a specified amount for a specified item, how much would you ask for and what would it be for?
$200 000 - so we could pay off our mortgage and buy a new house.
3. One of the symbols of St. Patrick's Day is the leprechaun. Name a celebrity that you think would look good as a leprechaun. Name a celebrity that would look ridiculous as a leprechaun. Is there any one celebrity that would make a really scary leprechaun?
Vern Troyer, the guy that played Mini Me in the Austin Powers movies would make a great Leprechaun. Arnold Schwarzenegger would not make a good one.
4. For a prize of $1,000,000,000 you are challenged to make yourself a costume for a St. Patricks Day party. The ONLY rules are that you aren't allow to use clothing and it has to be green. Using anything other than clothing, describe your costume to us using ANYTHING else in the house.
Leaves from the plants in our house. I would weave them together to make a dress.
5. What day of the week is your busiest? Tell us about your schedule.
Tuesday. I wake up early to head to my Weight Watchers meeting then we go to Trader Joe's and anywhere else we need to go.
6. No matter what's going on in your life, what always makes you smile?
My son.
7. Of all the clothes you own, what do you feel most comfortable wearing, and why?
Pj's
8. On what television show—either past or present—would you like to make to make a guest appearance, and what role would you play?
Buffy the Vampire Slayer - anyone as long as I got to kiss Angel! hehe
9. What else is on your mind? Go ahead and rant.
I am in shock about what happened in Japan yesterday. Japan has always fascinated me and I even speak Japanese and it just hurts me to watch the destruction there.

How green are you?
1. Do you recycle?
I do the best I can. We don't have a recycle trash pick up out here in the country.
2. Have you ever hung clothes on a line instead of using the clothes dryer?
In Australia that is the normal thing to do, however here it's different. We don't have a clothes line, but eventually I would like one.

I don't work so I save a bunch!

I haven't bought a new book in a couple of years.

I have done that a few times actually.
7. All you need are a few simple non-toxic ingredients like baking soda, vinegar, lemon, and soap to clean your home. Are you willing to throw away the bottled chemicals?
I try to use natural things around the home already. Certain things do need chemicals though.

This meme makes me realise I need to get out and explore where I live more.

Curious as a Cat #271

3) Describe the house in which you grew up.
It was in North Queensland in Australia so it was off the ground with a verandah, big rooms and wooden floors. It also had quite a large yard.
4) Show and Tell. What comes to mind first when you see this picture? Or, tell a story if it reminds you of one.
It makes me think of my weight loss journey and how I can't wait to look that good in jeans!

Mosaic Monday
This is our kitty Cassie (Cassiopeia). She and her brother wandered into our yard in December 2009 all dirty, wet and hungry. It was obvious they were abandoned so we decided to take them in. We couldn't keep both but decided to keep her as she was the smallest and cutest.
