Sunday Stealing- Blabbermouth

Blabbermouth

                                        

1. January usually has ample amounts of snowfall in parts of

the world.  Did you ever make snow cream as a kid?  I

think it is the same thing, we call it snow ice-cream here

in Missouri and yes, I have made it and had it as a kid also.

It tastes like homemade ice-cream. So good!

2. January is one of the months with 31 days. What are you going

to do with that extra day?  I will be off work.  I have a dentist

appointment on Monday, but I will also relax and do some

training for work.

3. In medieval times superstition dictated that the 1st day of January

was significant for prosperity, or lack of it, in a person's life. Farmers

put a flat cake on the horns of a cow and they danced and sang 

songs around the cow until the cake was thrown to the ground. 

If it fell in front of the cow that meant good luck; it if fell behind the

cow that meant bad luck for the rest of the year. Do you have strange

New Year customs in your household?  no

4. On January 14, 1986 motorists were required for the first time

to wear seat belts? Do you always buckle up? Why or why not?  I 

turned 16 about that time, so it has always been the law since I

have been driving, so yes, I always buckle up to stay safer and to

not get a ticket.

5. Have you ever blabbermouthed something to a significant other that

in hindsight you really should have kept to yourself?  I do not tell

my husband anything I do not want repeated to his family.  

6. Have you ever written anything on your blog that you wish you

could take back?  Not really, it is my blog and I write what I want to.

I am careful though.  I do not like to post things that would be 

offensive because that is not my nature to upset people.  I am known

to start a thought about something and delete it before I post it.

7. Are you the blabber or the blabbee? Tell us your most 

embarrassing blabbermouth moment.  I try really hard not

to do this.

8. Who is the biggest blabbermouth tattletale in your household?

That is easy...my husband.  I am not that talkative and so I do not

spread gossip or talk about much.  I talk most with Josh and my 

mom.  Like I said, if you tell my husband anything...expect it to

be told to his family and they will share with everyone they know.

9. You are the Blog Paparazzi! Which blogger's real photograph

are you most interested in getting?  We have done this before.  Many

of us have pictures posted, so I will go with Gal.  I respect anyone

that wishes to remain anonymous online though.

10. If you could hire the loudest and most skilled blabbermouth in

the universe to do your talking for you and advertise it well, what 

message would you like to spread to humanity?  Respect that we all

have different opinions.  We are not all meant to think the same exact 

thing and we need to learn from one another.

11. Are you always on time or just a tad late?  I am always a tad

bit early.

12. Is there someone in your life that irritates you regularly about not 

being on time?  She is not as bad as she used to be, but I have

one sister-in law that runs late to everything.  She told me on

vacation that she does not like to feel rushed.  I plan to get ready,

so I do not feel rushed.  I feel like people that run late do not respect

other people's time.  It used to be that we would go to a family event

and we would have to wait for her to arrive to start the event, but I

got bored with her shenanigans one year and said something and they

went ahead and started the event.  I am not interested in staying a

long time because someone cannot get their act together.  Start the

event on time, she can show up when she wants and I can leave when

I want and not still be waiting for the event to begin. The rest of the

family started leaving before she arrived too, so she started showing

up more on time.  People have other things to do.  ok this probably

bothers me more than I care to think.  Oops.

13. Can you think of a time when you were late for something and it

was REALLY a big deal?  I do not run late, but I forgot about a

meeting one day.  My administrator wanted to share her notes on an 

observation she had made in my classroom.  It was a good

conversation, but I forgot and I felt horrible.  She found me and

we talked.  She was not mad at all.  I couldn't believe I forgot, 

because I was super excited to hear what she had to say.

14. If you were on your way to work and had five minutes to get there,

would you stop in the road to rescue a crossing turtle?  no, but I 

would be careful not to hit it.

15. Have you ever had to actually punch a time clock?  yep, I sure 

have.  Way back when I worked at McDonald's we had an old

time clock.
