41 out of 100....It seems I've got some more stuff to do!
Tag! You're it!
Fun meme! I like your orange and white tablecloth(?)!
ReplyDeleteThis was fun! Is your snow all melted?
ReplyDeleteWillow, yes everything that gets much sun melted on Sunday. Yesterday afternoon, I only saw snow in a few places until I got close to home. The road leading to my home is shady most of the time and the snow lingers there. Also it still covers 2/3s of my back deck for the same reason. It will have to warm up into the low 50s for it to all melt I suppose. Today's temp is supposed to be the upper 40s but by Sat and Sun the upper 70s are predicted. Go figure....spring in the south.
ReplyDeleteFun fun fun, I liked reading all about you while sipping my coffee now.
ReplyDeleteDid you see the Amish community? Oh me too me too, it's one of my biggest wishes. I admire you a lot now Steph.
You've done so much Stevie! That was an interesting meme. There are some things on it I'd be glad not to have had experienced ;-)
ReplyDeleteI have my fingers crossed for you that you keep your job. Such worrisome times in business everywhere.
What a fun list! I may have to try this one.
ReplyDeleteI got 47 out of 100. Coincidentally, I'm going to Niagara Falls for a couple of nights this month. We're having a break away at the Holiday Inn. Oooh!
ReplyDeleteKat
P.S. I don't want to hold a praying mantis - but a lamb, I hope I get to do that.
That is a lot of stuff to do. It all sounds like fun.
ReplyDeletenice handwriting! I love yr little additions to the list & that now, I know a little more about you.
ReplyDeleteI love your little side comments too! I think that the peeing pig counts big time!
ReplyDeleteOh, I liked this, esp. with the extra comments. Can I steal this? Oh, I see you tagged me. Might take a few days, but I'd like to do it. Might have to add or subtract a few things. Or is that cheating?
ReplyDeleteRosezilla, please take it and use it any way you'd like to. I'll be over to see what you do with it.
ReplyDeleteMy word Steviewren, you must have done most everything! What a full life you have led! Well done, and interesting blog. - Dave
