Cold

It's been really freakin' cold here the last couple of days, so I spent the first part of my afternoon "Winter cleaning." The window AC unit and fans have been properly stored away until Summer and I've started organizing my cold weather clothes. I really like the time of year when you get to layer clothing ~ I just wish it didn't last so long. If we can find some wood, Vic & I may build a fire in our little outdoor firepit thing this weekend. I know I have the next two weekends off, so hopefully we'll be able to get the garage totally cleaned up and organized soon. It won't be long before we'll need the space to park our Jeeps in so they won't be in the snow.

Appetizer
Name 3 qualities that are important to you in friendship.
Sense of humor, honesty and general overall kindness.

Soup
If you could dream about anything tonight, what would the subject matter be?
Most of my dreams are usually about me hurrying to get someplace or combatting a lot of obstacles to get someplace. They're never scary and nobody is ever chasing me, but I usually wake up exhausted and having to pee. I think a really nice dream would include me, Vic and Shannon all having a great time playing in a grassy field with bunnies and squirrels all around.

Salad
Do you usually make an effort to personally thank people who do favors for you?
Yes, I think I do. I'm not always the best about remembering to write thank you cards, but I try my best.

Main Course
If you had to go out of town for an extended period of time, who would you trust to take care of your home and belongings?
If Vic & I were both going to be gone for a long time we would probably ask her mom to check in on the house every couple of days, but we would probably leave the every day feeding and watering of the kids to our neighbors, Carl and Kari. They're both really nice and have left us their key the couple of times they've been gone for the weekend, so I'm pretty sure we can trust them.

Dessert
How do you react to practical jokes when they're played on you?
I don't like practical jokes; neither the giving nor receiving of them. I'm always afraid someone is going to get hurt (physically or emotionally) and I don't want to be part of that.
