I thought I'd ask some questions.

1.) How many kids do you have and what are their ages?

Raziya is 16 months, #2 is minus five months, or thereabouts.

Nothing. I'm pregnant and don't like anything!

You know, those 2 days a year where it's not too hot or too cold. Where you can wear pants or a skirt and be comfy.

 

8.) What is your favorite sport?

Sorry dudes, but SCA combat are the only *real* sports! Heavy fighting, rapier and archery.

 

9.) What is your favorite holiday?

Geez. That's been a while. We like road tripping. Not fussed where we go. The last one would have been to Cameron corner, which is how we trashed our car. It was almost worthwhile for the quandong tart we had in Broken Hill. Ah, I see you are talking about things like Christmas. Haven't got one, we don't celebrate many so I'll stick with original answer.

 

10.) What is your least favorite store you have to shop in?

I hardly do shop! I guess Coles is my least favourite. We try and buy most of our food from the wholefoods shop and butchers.

8.) What is your favorite sport?

 

As a spectator, the Winter Olympics. If I were daring enough to try any sport, I wish I could try Ski Jumping (but seeing as how that would be an immediate death sentence, I'll pass, lol). I've never been much of a sport participant, so I guess I'll say walking. (Yes, I know that's not a 'sport', lol. It's about the best I can do w/ my athletic ability.) Or snow skiing (even though I've only done it once for real in my entire life, lol).

 

9.) What is your favorite holiday?

 

Probably Halloween, lol.

 

10.) What is your least favorite store you have to shop in?

 

Probably the grocery store -- that's why dh does the grocery shopping. :001_smile:

I'm Dy, and these are my answers.

 

1.) How many kids do you have and what are their ages?

We have five - they are DSalmost-10, DS8, DSalmost-5, DD2.5, and DS4mos. (The kids insisted on the "almost" b/c it's NEXT MONTH, and that COUNTS - said with eyes wide is disbelief that I don't automatically assume that.)

 

2.) What is your favorite food?

Oh, hands down, a thick, med-rare steak. I don't care what you serve with it, as long as it's a nice, thick steak.

 

3.) What is your favorite movie?

Uhhh... that's a hard one to narrow down, but I'd have to say either The Boondock Saints or U-571, or maybe Enemy at the Gates. Pride and Prejudice... North and South... The Venture Brothers (wait, no, that's a TV show). Well, I'm flexible and easily amused.

 

4.) Coke, Pepsi or neither?

I tend to be all-coffee, all the time. But if it's gotta be a soda, can I have a Cherry-Lemon Sun Drop?

 

5.) What is your favorite book?

No way, no how could I narrow this down. Not gonna even try.

 

6.) What is your least favorite household job?

Keeping the paper beast at bay. I swear, my kids sweat paper. It's everywhere.

 

7.) What is your favorite season?

Fall. Glorious fall. Proof that I lived through summer and won't have to deal with it again for another year. WOOHOO! Come on, Autumn!!

 

8.) What is your favorite sport?

Eating? That's a sport, right? Seriously, not a sports fan. But the three oldest boys play baseball, so I'll pick "watching my kids play" as my favorite sport to watch. But I'm still sticking with eating, if we're talking participation, here.

 

9.) What is your favorite holiday?

It used to be Christmas, hands down. But I didn't marry a Holiday-Sort-of-Man, and the constant negotiating sucks the glee out of it. So perhaps the Fourth of July, where I read the Declaration of Independence aloud. And cry. Every time. Next year, I'm making the almost-10-yo read it, instead. ;)

 

10.) What is your least favorite store you have to shop in?

Can't think of one, really. I don't like to shop, per se, so I really only hit stores out of necessity. I think the Krystal (yes, again with the food) just up the road from us has THE WORST customer service ever. So, yes, Krystal is my least favorite place to make a purchase.
