ALL ABOUT MEME

Imagine you're being interviewed by Oprah Supah ...

Ummm, yeah, we know you're excited.  

But let's try to keep the crazy to a minimum, 'kay?

You know Oprah Supah asks the tough questions ... 

What are you currently reading?
When do you find the time to read?
Where do you do most of your reading?
How do you choose what you read?
From where do you get most of your books?
What do you do with a book after you've finished reading it?
What are your book (reading) quirks?

I'm not currently reading anything so I'm going to do a book I just finished.

I recently finished The Sweet By and By by Sara Evans and Rachel Hauck. Great book!

I read whenever and where ever I can. During commercials, sitting in kitchen floor while cooking, but mostly in bed.

I like all kinds of books. Mostly scary and funny with a little romance and civil war era thrown in but I will read anything.

Most all of my books come from swaptree.com. If you don't know about this place, visit it! Some others come from publishing companies that i review for.

After I finish my books I will either share with others, list them on swaptree.com or do a giveaway.

Book quirks? Hmmmmm, I don't like to turn down pages. I will use all kinds of things as a bookmark. Some things I have used recently are bobby pins, thread and a clippie. I do own and even make bookmarks....just never use them.

Since I'm like the ONLY person in blogland that has never watched friends that makes my choices smaller...I choose 5.

I have a friend that helped me once and I do not even know what that friends name is...I actually probably do know them cause I think they are from my church but no one has ever admitted it was them who helped.

In December of 2004 I was newly separated,getting a divorce and broke,I mean really broke. I was living in a mobile home that needed the pipes wrapped under it. I have a distant cousin who said for $20 he would get under there and wrap them.  So I ran home between jobs to give my mom the money to pay him when he showed up. It was a few bills and the rest was change. It was ALL THE MONEY I HAD! But I knew I'd be in trouble if I had a pipe bust and it was freezing already. 

When I was leaving my moms I stopped at the mailbox and there was a little envelope,kinda like what you would get in your valentine box you made for grade school. It had my name on it and nothing in the returen address part. I opened it and it had 2 $20 bills in it. FORTY $$$$$!!!! That was such a blessing to me, you have no ideal! The twenties were wrapped up in a small piece of paper that had "we love you" wrote in red crayon. I cried so hard I was late for work cause I had to go tell my mom. I'm teary eyed now thinking about it. I still haven't a clue who sent it but God does and one day I hope to be able to tell them thank you and how much that meant to me. 

So that's the nicest thing a friend has done for me.

It's that time again!

MEme Monday with Supah and MommyBrain!

This week is x-tra special to me cause it is as close as I'll get to one of my most favoritest show EVAH!

5 Essential MEme Items  

I cannot  ( hissssss) survive without.

* on a daily basis

* on a deserted island

* with my kids in the car 

We can choose which one and I choose on a daily basis because my kids are grown...well Linzy is almost 15 and not AS annoying as when they are smaller and the girls are like 23 and 26....so this one doesn't apply. I'm thinking I'd have to get on a boat to end uyp on a deserted island and I don't see that happening.

SO 

5 essential items I can not survive witout on a daily basis are....

1. My husband,kids,and family. I think that's pretty self explanatory. Although I could survive without a husband I choose not to.

2. Chapstick. I have tubes of this stuff all over the house, in jacket pockets,my purse and in the winter in my car....too hot here in the summer time.I really do think it is an addiction,it could be worse.

3. My car. Not that I'm in love with it cause I'm not but I do like the idea of having transportation when ever I need or want it. I have been carless before and it is not a good feeling. 

4.My cell phone. How did we live without them? I know I could survive without it but I so don't wanna find out. It is like my life line between me and my loved ones. Kelly lives 600 miles away and I talk to her every day sometimes texting all day....when I lived in Reno,some 2000 miles from my mama in the late 80's I talked to her once a week on Sundays. That is why I love love LOVE my cell phone. 

5. My atenolol. Without it my heart beats too fast and skeers me.

There's 5 of mine although I could add lots more. Y'all go see Supah and MommyBrain and play along!
