I'm having a hard time with text colors and I don't know how to link blog sites, but I've got to post this at long last... sorry if it's hard to read
1. Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, and find line 4.
"...next, and her father would shake his head and say, "I..." line 4, pg. 18 of The Book of Story Beginnings by Kristin Kladstrup (you can't really tell from this, but it's a young readers novel that I borrowed from work and I'm reading with the kids).
2. Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What can you touch?
curtains
3. What was the last thing you watched on TV?
World Cup Soccer - France vs. Spain
4. Without looking, guess what time it is.
2:00 p.m.
5. Now look at the clock. What is the actual time?
1:52 p.m.
6. With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?
lawn mower in the distance
7. When did you last step outside? What were you doing?
About 3 hours ago - sweeping the back patio
8. Before you started this survey, what did you look at?
checked my e-mails
9. What are you wearing?
capri pants (beige) and a t-shirt (light green)
10. Did you dream last night?
I did, but I don't remember very much except that there was a snake involved - a very aggressive one that would chase and bite. This is odd because I usually don't remember my dreams.
11. When did you last laugh?
Last night.
12. What is on the walls of the room you are in?
Paint swatches - every room in the house was painted white before we moved in EXCEPT this one...it's purple (walls and ceiling).
13. Seen anything weird lately?
Can't think of anything.
14. What do you think of this quiz?
Interesting to find out little tidbits about people.
15. What is the last film or video you saw?
Cars.
16. If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy?
There's a lot that could be done! But, to be brief, I'd really like to get an RV or one of those Coleman pop-up tent trailer things, pack up the family, and go explore the country for a year or so.
17. Tell me something about you that I do not know.
I am an artist in a family of scientists - my uncle is the explorer who found the Titanic.
18. If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt or politics, what would you do?
That's a tough one. I guess I'd like EVERYONE to know Jesus.
19. Do you like to dance?
I liked to take dance classes as a girl, but I don't really like to go out dancing.

Seek the Lord in all that you do and decisions you make.

"Welcome home."
25. What one book, besides the Bible, has changed your life?

Fun to read what other people are up to...via the quizzes that go around here. Yeah, I've got three dental appointments within the next week--one for me, one for dh, and one for ds#2. Ugh. I'm looking forward to the convention, too. I have three boxes of books to sell at the used curriculum sale and just found out that they take a 30% cut on what you sell! Gack!! Highway robbery!! Well, I do need to sell them and it would be nice to have it all done at once. Please tell me more about your teen novel (if you can). I would love to hear about it and why you chose that genre (which is one of my favorites). Yes, no time to write is one of the banes of a mother's existence, I think.
