Just some questions for you.
Because I like to hear from you!
~ Does anyone out there besides me cringe at the thought of breakfast in bed?
~ Do you sing loud when you're alone in the car?
~ Don't you just love waking up with a long, relaxed sigh, and feeling so incredibly cozy, as opposed to waking up with a jerk at the sound of the alarm, and rolling over to blindly find the snooze?
~ Would you rather cook or bake?
~ Does having other people in the kitchen with you when you're working annoy you or not?
~ Are you ready for spring?
~ Does anyone besides me look for the spell check button on the upper left-hand corner of a sheet of paper when you're writing with a pen and you mess up?
~ Did you have a song stuck in your head today?
~ Did you pause long enough to look at and enjoy something beautiful today?
~ Did you look anyone in the eyes today for more than a second?
~ Wanna smile? Go ahead. You've probably let your face fall into that settled, stare-at-the-screen, mopey, dead look. It's okay. Mine looks about the same way right now. But let's take a deep breath and lighten up our faces together. Ready? SMILE!!!!
~ Did you spin around just for fun any time this week?
~ Who is your favorite author?
~ What color is your hairbrush?
~ Got a favorite mountain?
Pick a question....or two or three or four!...and make me smile. :)

~Are you ready for spring?~ My heart is, but the rest of me is not. I need to make a 1914 afternoon dress before the apple blossoms come out so I can wear that for my senior pictures... :-)
~Did you have a song stuck in your head today?~ LOL! Yes! Until this evening, I couldn't get out of my head the song "Concerning Hobbits" from the Lord of the Rings soundtrack. (I have never even seen LotR but I got the song off of a blog playlist and really like it. :-) )
~Wanna smile?~ I actually did smile when you said SMILE! :-) And I'm still smiling. ;-)
~Did you spin around just for fun any time this week?~ Yes! :-D
Fun post! Hope you are doing well! :-D
Love in Christ,
Melanie
Oh no! That song's back in my head since I mentioned it! :-P
Can I make you grin? =D
~ Does anyone out there besides me cringe at the thought of breakfast in bed? "I'm sure someone does..."
~ Do you sing loud when you're alone in the car? "Of course! Except I've never been alone in the car...at least not when it's moving..."
~ Don't you just love waking up with a long, relaxed sigh, and feeling so incredibly cozy, as opposed to waking up with a jerk at the sound of the alarm, and rolling over to blindly find the snooze? "YES!!!!"
~ Would you rather cook or bake? "Why bake, of course."
~ Does having other people in the kitchen with you when you're working annoy you or not? "Yeah, one of those...usually the former."
~ Are you ready for spring? "YES, YES, YES!!!!!!"
~ Does anyone besides me look for the spell check button on the upper left-hand corner of a sheet of paper when you're writing with a pen and you mess up? "Like I said, I'm sure someone does.."
~ Did you have a song stuck in your head today? "Ummm...not today, but yesterday 'this is the song that doesn't end' was stuck in there..."
~ Did you pause long enough to look at and enjoy something beautiful today? "No." =(
~ Did you look anyone in the eyes today for more than a second? "I don't think I've had time..."
~ Wanna smile? Go ahead. You've probably let your face fall into that settled, stare-at-the-screen, mopey, dead look. It's okay. Mine looks about the same way right now. But let's take a deep breath and lighten up our faces together. Ready? SMILE!!!! =P
~ Did you spin around just for fun any time this week? "Nah. My life is pretty boring, isn't it?"
~ Who is your favorite author? "David." =)
~ What color is your hairbrush? "Hairbrush? What hairbrush?"
~ Got a favorite mountain? "Sharptop, maybe. Or Horsetooth, in Colorado."
Did I make you grin? =D
Love ya.
Melanie, thanks for commenting! Your 1914 dress sounds like it will be beautiful; I'd love to see pics when it's done! And I'm glad you're smiling. :)
By the way, I truly, truly, TRULY haven't forgotten that I owe you an email!!!!! :) :) :)
Alethea, yes, yes, YES, you made me grin!!!!! Thanks. :) :) :) Love you too!
...You also got that ridiculous song "Oh where is my hairbrush?" stuck in my head. LOL! :) :) :)
OH NO! The hairbrush song!?!?!? That one stays forever. So does the King Darius song! :-S ;-) (ALL the Veggie Tales songs! :-P )
I'll be sure to post pictures when I make my 1914 dress! :-D
What fun!
Indeed, I despise Alarm Clocks, they are so very offensive sounding in the early morning.
I would FAR rather cook than bake. Cooking is so much broader, you can experiment to your hearts content. Baking? Well, lets just say my experiments have never worked. :/
Yes, I spun around this week. What else are flowing skirts for?
As for people being in the kitchen with me. I prefer to be alone - that way I can talk to myself or sing without being caught. But having a little helper is fun too.
My favorite author, (at least for this week) is Isabella Alden.
And yes, you made me smile. : )
~ Does anyone out there besides me cringe at the thought of breakfast in bed? I have good memories of the one time I've had it fixed for me by my sister. :) but other meals in bed are for when I'm sick...
~ Do you sing loud when you're alone in the car? Just at a low-normal volume.
~ Don't you just love waking up with a long, relaxed sigh, and feeling so incredibly cozy, as opposed to waking up with a jerk at the sound of the alarm, and rolling over to blindly find the snooze? Yes.
~ Would you rather cook or bake? Either, really, depending on the recipe.
~ Does having other people in the kitchen with you when you're working annoy you or not? Nope, for me, it's the more the merrier, whereas, other people want me out. :)
~ Are you ready for spring? Not yet, too many indoor projects to get finished first.
~ Does anyone besides me look for the spell check button on the upper left-hand corner of a sheet of paper when you're writing with a pen and you mess up? NO, but when an object is lost, I feel like calling it on the phone or Googling it.
~ Did you have a song stuck in your head today? "Faithful Love" by Ken Young, a new hymn we just learned from friends who sang it a capella.
~ What color is your hairbrush? Grey and purple
~ Got a favorite mountain? Any that we hike as a family.
Fun post.:)
~ Does anyone out there besides me cringe at the thought of breakfast in bed? I do. I'd rather be up for a bit before I eat.
~ Don't you just love waking up with a long, relaxed sigh, and feeling so incredibly cozy, as opposed to waking up with a jerk at the sound of the alarm, and rolling over to blindly find the snooze? yes! :o)
~ Would you rather cook or bake?
~ Does having other people in the kitchen with you when you're working annoy you or not?
~ Are you ready for spring? Yes. It has been warmer than usual for this time of year and It feels almost springy.
~ Did you pause long enough to look at and enjoy something beautiful today? We have hills outside our front window. I stop and look every day at their beauty :o)
~ Did you look anyone in the eyes today for more than a second?
~ Who is your favorite author? Lucy Maud Montgomery, Jane Austen or Grace Livingston Hill. I can't pick just one.
~ Would you rather cook or bake? umm, cook I suppose =)
~ Does having other people in the kitchen with you when you're working annoy you or not? it depends, on what I'm making and how I'm feeling. I do like to work alone *sometimes*, but I love working on making a meal or dessert with my sisters!
~ Are you ready for spring? yes, yes, YES! although, today was such a beautiful spring-like today, so I have no reason to complain...after 2-3 weeks of *really* winterish temps!
~ Did you have a song stuck in your head today? maybe, that happens to me often. I think I had one this morning, but I don't know what it was, and then I had 'How Deep the Fathers Love for Us' in my head and it was a good thing to have stuck there...
~ Did you pause long enough to look at and enjoy something beautiful today? yes, and I even took some pictures of beauty today because God raptured my heart through the beauty...it had to be documented...
~ Did you look anyone in the eyes today for more than a second? hmm, this is pretty convicting. I don't know that I did...
~ Wanna smile? Go ahead. it definitely made me SMILE! thanks...I need to remember that!
~ Did you spin around just for fun any time this week? NO! *ahem* I'm refined. lol...actually I should!
~ Who is your favorite author? inspired by God! {speaking of the authors in the Bible} Of them I'd probably have to pick David as my favorite...or Paul}
~ What color is your hairbrush? umm, blue
~ Got a favorite mountain? Colorado mountains! *sigh* they're so pretty!
May you smile lots today and may God show you Himself in beauty cascading everywhere. =)
LOL! I LOVE YOU, AMBER! =D
~ Do you sing loud when you're alone in the car? As I don't have my license yet, no...but I'm sure I would if I did. When I happen to be home alone I always like to sing really loudly! :)
~ Would you rather cook or bake? Bake - cookies, cakes, pies, cobblers, bread....etc.
~ Are you ready for spring? Yes, I have to admit I am. But I wish spring didn't mean that summer was coming - because I dread summer. ;)
~ Did you have a song stuck in your head today? I did! It was Faithful Love - we sang it on Sunday. It was a new song for us, and yesterday it was stuck in my head, and my sister's, and my mom's! When one of us would forget it for a minute, someone else would start whistling it, and the cycle would start all over again.
~ What color is your hairbrush?
Teal.
~ Got a favorite mountain? Humpback Rock! One of my favorite places to hike.
You ladies are such fun! I'm very glad I wrote this post; your answers have had me smiling. :)
Marie, I agree with you about alarm clocks, and you're right; cooking is much easier to play around with than baking. I've had many more baking flops than cooking ones!
Hannah, your comment about Googling or calling a lost object made me crack up!!!!
Angelique, wow, having beautiful hills outside your window must be wonderful! Our home is on a road just outside a city, so we're not in the middle of everything, but we're within sight of it, and I think having a country view out the window would be lovely!
Ruth Ann, I love your new profile picture! And "How Deep the Father's Love" is such a beautiful and tremendously moving song. I love it. :)
Sarah, I've never heard the song "Faithful Love." The title sounds pretty. I know what you mean about having several people in the house "stuck" on the same song; the minute it's gone from your head, somebody DOES start humming or whistling it! :) :) :) Oh - and you poor dear! - why do you dread summer? Is it the heat?
Yes I cringe at breakfast in bed.
and I sing loud.
and yes to the next one.
cook.
yes it annoys me, a lot.
sure!
no never had that happen...I don't write a lot.
I always have songs stuck in my head. There are too many to recount.
Yes.
I think so.
I smiled. =)
No.
Well, Jesus, but other than that, I love Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers. You should read it if you haven't.
I don't use a hairbrush. I have curly hair. =D
Any mountain is cool. They're all awesome.
And I know you said 3 or 4 but I was having so much fun and they were making me smile. =)
Oh - and you poor dear! - why do you dread summer? Is it the heat?
Mostly - and the humidity and bugs. :) I always like cooler weather better, because you can always add another layer and be comfortable. However, in summer, you can't exactly take off clothing to be cooler! ;) Fall and spring are just the perfect temps for me - ahh!
