    Re: miscellaneous questions for SS

    Are there any other special days you like to celebrate during the next six months?

    None that I can think of, except the usual holidays.

    Do you like/use post-it-notes, note cards, bookmarks?

    YES, YES YES, I love them!

    Do you like stationary or note cards?

    Yes again!

    Do you like magnets?

    Yes!

    Would you like to get homecrafted items? Like wall hangings, afghans, shawls, pot holders and such?

    Yes, because I very craft challenged myself!  Love homemade items, just can't make them!

    Do you belong to the Red Hat??

    No.

    What is your favorite season?

    Spring and Fall

    Do you save coupons? (Any specific ones?)

    No.

    Favorite animal?

    Dogs, dogs, dogs!  I have two!

    What stores do you enjoy shopping at for other than groceries? You know, for things that you enjoy. I don't do much shopping.  I occasionally go to Kohl's and Bath and Body Works. Other than that, Wal-mart.

    What about on-line shopping?

    No, not too much.

    Not everyone likes to get "religious" cards. It does not mean that they are not believers or have faith but some just prefer not to receive these cards. Please let us know your preference.

    No religious cards, please.

    Would you like something that your SS state is known for?

    Sure, why not?

    Is there something you can't get in your area that you would like your SS to get for you?

    Nothing I can think of.

    What is something that you would like that you can't make?

    Drawing a blank on this one!

    Is there anything that you DON'T need or want?

    Please don't send me any cups or mugs! I have tons of these things.  I am also not a candle person.

    Is there anything else you want your secret sister to know about you?

    I am a complete and total Twilight fan-addict!  Love the books (I own all four, love the movie (own that too) and can't wait until New Moon comes out in November. I also love True Blood on HBO.

    My favorite thing to receive as a surprise from my SS is - I have no idea!

    MISCELLANEOUS (Questions I couldn’t think of a category for!!)

     

    Are there any other special days you like to celebrate during the next six months?  Husband's & baby's birthdays in November, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas

    Do you like/use post-it-notes, note cards, bookmarks?  Yes, I love them!  Always great!

    Do you like stationary or note cards?   Yes, great too!  I especially like the 4x6 size so I can send a picture to my mom or something like that.

    Do you like magnets?  Yes, I try to get one from each place that I visit.  My boys love to play with them too.

    Would you like to get homecrafted items? Like wall hangings, afghans, shawls, pot holders and such?   Sure!  I don't have a lot of wall space and don't really wear shawls much.  I have homemade scarves from my aunt.  I love afghans, potholders, anything. 

    Do you belong to the Red Hat??   Nope.

    What is your favorite season?   Probably Christmas!  I like to start decorating right before Thanksgiving.  It takes awhile to pull everything out and to decorate.  Plus we head out of town for Christmas so I like to have it up long enough to enjoy it!  We also enjoy Halloween.  My 4-year old loves to put on a costume, to see all of the decor, etc.

    Do you save coupons? (Any specific ones?)   Yes, diapers!  Baby wipes!  Any frozen/TV dinners, quick snacks, etc.

    Favorite animal?   Dog.  I love my dogs!  I also love horses. 

    What stores do you enjoy shopping at for other than groceries? You know, for things that you enjoy.   Bookstores.  Goodwill.  Yard sales.  Hobby Lobby, Michaels or Scrapbook stores.

    What about on-line shopping?   Don't use very often, sometimes amazon or ebay.

    Not everyone likes to get "religious" cards. It does not mean that they are not believers or have faith but some just prefer not to receive these cards. Please let us know your preference.  I have no problem with this. 

    Would you like something that your SS state is known for?  Sure!

    Is there something you can't get in your area that you would like your SS to get for you? Can't think of anything.

    What is something that you would like that you can't make?  Oh there's probably something but I can't think of anything right now!

    Is there anything that you DON'T need or want?  Again, can't think of anything!

    Is there anything else you want your secret sister to know about you?   I am tired of moving so much!  We just moved in April and I'm mainly the one who packs/unpacks/sets up house.  We've moved so much in last few years that I'm burned out.  And, we're supposed to move perhaps as early as next summer (2010).  That should be it!  I just want to be able to enjoy my time with my husband and family without having to always pack/unpack.  Keeping up with daily life is hard enough!  I love my boys.  They are my joy, joy, joy!  I enjoy my time to scrapbook and pull out their photos and put them into albums.   I love this!  I love dancing--clogging, irish & ballroom.  I also love writing.  I've won some short story contests and I would love to write a book soon.  Of course time is always an issue but I'm trying.  My family means a lot to me.  I go home to see my mom (2-3 times a year).

     

    My favorite thing to receive as a surprise from my SS is_________________________.  Gosh, at this point, anything!  What fun to receive any note or anything in the mail!  Just as long as its not a bill or junk mail!! :)  I will LOVE anything! Thankyou!!!! :)

    Finishing the ?s:

    Nothing I can think of that isn't needed or wanted

    I come from a big family and I love to bake, especially at holiday time and love to make/send homemade goods.

    I'm new to SS, so anything I receive from my SS will be a wonderful surprise!
