2. Which of your family members has the worst temper? I’d say my husband.  He’s Italian.  Need I say more?

3. Have you ever thrown something at anyone? Um…yeah, who hasn’t?  I threw a broom at my husband the first year we were married.  Not a good time, that first year.

4. Is anyone mad at you?  I sure as heck hope not, but on the other hand I wouldn’t be surprised.

6. When you’re mad do you prefer to stare angrily or yell? I yell, of course-I’m a woman.

Exciting Orange

1. Has anyone ever thrown a surprise party for you? No they haven’t and if you’re reading this, it isn’t too late.  🙂

2. What event is coming up that you’re most excited about?  Probably the women’s retreat in October.  That is always inspiring and wonderful….the same week is my favorite treasure hunt…the Christ Church rummage sale

3. If you won a million dollars, what would be your first thought?  It would be I could take that trip to Paris, get the rest of my house  done in hardwood flooring and do the improvements I want around my house that are more cosmetic than structural and also get that art studio shed made in the backyard, complete with heat and air conditioning.

4. If you could have anything right now what would it be? A body that is 75lbs thinner.

5. Your favorite orange thing.  My Eectra Townie bike.

Yellow Belly Self

1. Name: Emily

2. Birthday: March 27th

3. What’s your main goal in life? To live artfully, with purpose and gratitude, to serve my fellow man and God and to not waste a moment regretting anything in the past.  I wish to have a meaningful second half of my life doing something that involves creativity.

4. Do you want to have children?  Uh, been there done that-five times.

5. When do you want to die? I’d like to die when I’m very old, worn out and feel like I’ve completed my life’s mission.  In my sleep preferably.

1. Are you against gay marriage?  I don’t care one way or the other.

2. Lower the drinking age?  My personal opinion is this:  I believe a person should ‘come of age’ at the same time he is legal to drink.  I think the drinking age and becoming a legal adult should happen on the 20th birthday after teen years are done.  You can get married, legally drink at your wedding and die for your country after you turn 20.  It is silly to have two different ages for two different milestones.  But that’s just me.

3. Capital Punishment?  Only if a person has confessed (willingly) to a crime, and after DNA tests have linked that person to the crime.  Before then, you just can’t be sure.

4. Abortion? I believe it should only be done for medical reasons.  There are too many wonderful childless couples in this country who would love to have that unwanted child.  I believe birthing a child and handing it over should be the first choice.

4.  Favorite green things.  My  backyard willow tree.

Lovely Blue

1. Do you love someone? Yes, I love my husband and all five of my kids.

2. Do you believe in love at first sight? Absolutely that can happen.

3. Do you believe in love?  Yes, I think love is nice and can fill an enormous ‘pot hole’ in one’s life.

4.  Favorite blue things:  Fresh blueberries, my denim jacket and blue/white gingham.

3. Name one thing that you do everyday?

5. Are you for or against Hillary?  I don’t think she’s very likable.  My vote goes to Michelle Bachman.

6. Look to your left. What’s there?  My Vera Bradley purse.

7. What’s the last piece of clothing you borrowed? I don’t borrow clothing.

8  What website(s) do you visit the most?  Facebook, Pinterest, WordPress, GMail, My Fitness Pal,  and Chase.com

9. Do you have plants in your room?   No, I love plants but can’t have them because my cats eat them down to nothing.  It’s such a bummer.

10. Does anything hurt on your body right now?  No, but I have a general feeling of being really tired and out of sorts.

11. Do you own a picture phone?  Doe’s an iPhone 4 count?

6. What are you doing right now?  Sitting in my husband’s office typing this meaningless meme because I’m too tired and fatigued to think of something original to write about.  Sorry guys.  😦

7. What are you doing tonight?  Walking in the door and falling on the sofa into a deep coma of a nap until I’m rested enough to get up and throw some dinner together.  After that-reading.

8. What are you going to eat?  Probaby pork chops with veggies and potatos.

If you feel inclined, copy and paste this little meme into your own blog and in a robotic way answer the questions.  I think they’re meaningless fun, but hey, what can I say?

In the spirit of fun hues, here’s a colorful, fun project to make from paint card samples. Have fun and enjoy it when it’s finished!
