We went to France for a few days and Switzerland for a week. First time to Switzerland and would love to visit again.

I thought I'd be a chef or a realtor. I did have some short stints in a few restaurant kitchens and also worked in the real estate industry in roles other than as a realtor. I was a single mom for a while and couldn't commit to working open houses on weekends. I worked in the escrow field for a while and then as a mortgage loan officer for eleven years before having my youngest daughter. Now, I am a stay-at-home mom and part-time college student. She is 9 now, and I still have days where I struggle with not having a career and contributing to a pension, but I remind myself how fortunate I am to be there for DD2 when she is done with school each day.
What is one thing that you admired about your mother?

I admire how she goes out of her way to help anyone and everyone, despite how she herself is feeling. She is the kindest person I know.

Yes, it started with ER and now into the Resident and New Amsterdam. Grey's Anatomy should have stopped about 2 seasons ago.

I always wrapped stocking stuffers - and everything else too. Are you good about remembering to use creams/lotions when your skin need them?

Not a fan. Good for decorating food, but that's it. Did you buy any new decorations this season?

Not yet, but there are a few Christmas Craft events coming up in the next few weeks.
Thanksgiving was in October and I don't "celebrate" Hallowe'en.
What is your favourite Christmas memory?

Are you handing out trick or treat candy?

Post by birdy on Oct 30, 2019 1:33:14 GMT
Yes (actually DS and his gf are handing it out, but I bought it). I had to give it to DH to hide so I wouldn't get in to it! Do you like home improvement shows (like Love It/List It, Property brothers, etc?)

I don't really care for them because I am past the point of doing anything to my place past keeping the rain out. Truth is I often liked the houses better before they went in and "improved" them. Not a big fan of many thing done to modernize.
Mayonnaise or Miracle Whip?

Post by Patter on Oct 30, 2019 19:34:50 GMT
Hate camping. Have only done it once and that was more than enough.
Rain or snow? At this point I will take snow because I am tired of this deluge and mud!

No candy. I bought small packages of cookies but if things go as usual I will end up eating them. We seldom get any trick or treaters.
Do you feel the need to wash your hands after petting your pets?
|
|

Post by Susie_Homemaker on Nov 1, 2019 13:17:36 GMT
No I don't. I'm always petting our dog and our grand-dog when he's over so I'd have to constantly wash my hands. I do wash before eating or cooking though.
Do you have any pets?

|

Post by Patter on Nov 1, 2019 14:21:59 GMT
Yes. We have 5 pets--two parrots and three dogs. Do you like sweet potatoes? LOVE them. I bake and cover in just cinnamon to eat. YUM!
